Having an expectancy of an eternal salvation protects us from the prey of temporality.

Spotify announced it is ending its podcast creation and editing platform tonight at midnight. It will still host podcasts. Spotify now has a collaboration with an application called Riverside which is “supposed” to provide the platform for the creating and editing functions of podcasts and then to then post episodes into Spotify and other podcasting platforms like Apple and etc. As I mention in this episode, Spotify and Riverside appear to be having tech glitches with the two not working together as they should right now. Hopefully, they’ll iron out the issues but that is out of my control. So, if my podcast on Wednesday is not posted, it is likely going to be because of tech problems that are not within my domain to fix. Stay tuned and thanks again for listening!

We’ll see you next week!

Today is the day of salvation. Not tomorrow or eternity. Soren admonishes us readers to hear his words and to act now rather than delay and presume that God is subject to human demands and wishes. That presumption is dangerously arrogant. We are to accept this gift of His salvation on His terms, and thus experience that happy calmness in the midst of trouble.

Not all wishing is frivolous and selfish. Soren reminds us that to truly wish for salvation is sound. For ourselves, for others, and is fundamental. And we even can have fun! Bierkergaard, putting the fun in Fundamentalism.

“O God, preserve a recollection of youth that preserves a youth’s thoughts of his Creator….those thoughts are the child’s most beautiful ornament, and the bride’s most beautiful jewel, and the dying person’s best garment.”

Thinking about your Creator when young grounds and grows your life on and in the foundation of Truth. In reviewing the audience of the podcast, 80% of the listeners are between 23-44 years of age, with nearly 40% being 23-27. Have a relentless commitment to the Truth and It shall set you free.
