TCN's Biblical Journey Sept 3st

Today's Reading is Ezekiel 48 and Daniel 1-3

(I bet you're wondering what this has to do with Ezekiel.)


Am glad to get out of Ezekiel and into Daniel but the last half of the last verse of Ezekiel grabs my attention. "And the name of the city from that time on will be: The Lord is there."

Whatever else eternity may be like for His followers the key to it all will be that God is there.

The phrase "Elvis has left the building" was said to let the audience know that Elvis Presley, the king of rock and roll, was no longer in the building. This meant there was no chance for an encore performance or a chance to meet him. The reason for staying there was gone. The hope was this would cause (and it did) people to leave.

In reverse, it will be God in the city and now no one will want to leave. To say it another way, at the end of time the angels will announce, "The King has entered the build, let the celebrations begin!"
