<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nPsalm 90: 4 \u201cFor a thousand years in thy sight are but yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyone who considers themselves a southern gourmet cook knows what a smidgen is. It\u2019s like a \u201cbit\u201d or a \u201cpinch\u201d or a \u201ctad.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At any rate, a smidgen is a legitimate unit of measure south of the Mason-Dixon Line. As of yet, however, I haven\u2019t seen a spoon in a measuring set with such an amount. We simply have to guess or use our best judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Measurements in time and materials control us. We are in bondage to watches, clocks and calendars. Flight schedules, work time clocks, and even time settings for distance determine our every movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some web sites and other publications are now adding \u201cread time\u201d to articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many in today\u2019s world if asked a distance answer the question in minutes. How far is it to the next town? \u201cTwenty minutes.\u201d \u201cAt what speed\u201d would be a reasonable response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Could a carpenter build a house without a tape measure? Could a cook bake a cake without measurements? Of course not!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are physical beings. Our life span, the years of our marriage and the ages of our children are all stated in numbers. Doctors weigh us when we go for a checkup. The results of our blood tests are stated in numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We \u201ccount heads\u201d for attendance and count how many were saved (received Jesus as Lord and Savior) at a crusade or on a mission project. Numbers are important to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The number of believers is surely important to God. Second Corinthians 5:15 \u201cAnd that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.\u201d<\/h1>\n\n\n\nSecond Peter 3: 8 \u201cBut beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day with the Lord is like a thousand years and a thousand years as one day.\u201d God is spirit, infinite and eternal.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nSo, why is time irrelevant to God? Because He is infinite and eternal! If we speak of eternity concerning God, we must not only look into the future but also into the past.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nIf God will always be, He must have always been. Many astronomers and other scientists want to assign numbers to the existence of the sun, earth, galaxy and the universe.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nMany make a useless debate of how old the planet or universe is. The distance across the Milky Way galaxy is (we\u2019re told) 100,000 light years and the universe is 97 billion light years across.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nShould we really be concerned with the distance to Mars or Proxima Centauri? Our individual curiosity factors want to know some things and for many those distances are intriguing but inconsequential in our everyday lives or our eternal destination.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nBut what is really important? The Bible teaches we have an eternal soul. No one has ever seen such a thing. No one has ever died and come back to report Heaven or Hell, except in order to write a book or movie script.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nNo one knows where the eternal soul resides; if it is asleep, concealed in a body cell or flows through ones veins or central nervous system.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nThe Bible tells us to believe through faith (Ephesians 2: 8). Faith is believing in something that cannot be proven or common sense tells us it cannot be true. Faith is a steadfast belief that something is true.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nCan we understand in a world of skepticism why so many are turning to non-belief?<\/h1>\n\n\n\nA question asked was, \u201cWhy do you believe in God?\u201d Can anyone give a logical or reasonable explanation for why we exist?<\/h1>\n\n\n\nTo believe something came from nothing (on its own\/spontaneous generation) or that order came from chaos, takes more faith than believing in a Creator God.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nGranted, religionists cannot prove God but the evidence is overwhelming. How much evidence does it take to make a fact? The answer to that is with the individual.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nThe non-believer must also ask the question \u201cWhat if I\u2019m wrong?\u201d Whereas there is no (court of law) proof of God, there is no such proof of evolution.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nThe non-believer must think we, the planet, the atmosphere, the universe came from somewhere. Since there is no such thing as spontaneous generation of matter, where and how did all things begin?<\/h1>\n\n\n\nWhat make sense to you? Why do you exist? Why do we think, have emotions or die?\u201d<\/h1>\n\n\n\nOur Creator (John 1: 3) was also subjected to numbers. He was born the person Jesus 2026 years ago, lived to thirty-three years of age, was on the cross for six hours, in the grave three days and lived after His resurrection for forty days before ascending into Heaven.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nEven Jesus can\u2019t get away from measurements and numbers. So, how long is eternity? The most reasonable answer is \u201cIt\u2019s a time that cannot be measured!\u201d As a smidgen cannot be measured, neither can eternity.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nProverbs 3: 5 \u201cTrust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding.\u201d Is our ability to think a curse or a blessing? Whichever it may be, we must not let it mislead us.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nAn old Cherokee proverb states: \u201cThere is a fight like two wolves going on inside you, one is evil; one is good.\u201d The question asked was, \u201cWhich one will win?\u201d The answer: \u201cThe one you feed!\u201d<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The Bible teaches there is only one eternal salvation. That is by a faith based belief (Ephesians 2: 8) that Christ Jesus was crucified (Matthew 27: 35) for the remission of sin (Romans 4: 25), resurrected (Matthew 28: 6) and ascended alive into Heaven (Acts 1: 9).
