Gr...The pesky mosquito is not reconciled. No way.<br /><br />Great comments. I appreciate Tozer's writing and how he brings so many good things to us to chew on and mentally wrestle with.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00606199377889821435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8446705.post-75338271507128373162009-06-11T09:27:21.644-05:002009-06-11T09:27:21.644-05:00I mostly agree with what Tozer is saying, but I...I mostly agree with what Tozer is saying, but I'm not sure about the assertion that all of creation is still fulfilling God's creative purpose or that the powers and dominions are still fulfilling their design. Afterall, we know that Satan and his powers have rebelled and that the curse on Adam is still being felt in all too painful of ways, perhaps ways in which we do not comprehend. <br /><br />It seems to me as I read the Scriptures that when sin and rebellion appeared, it potentially infected all of creation. I'm not sure, from our finite vantage point, that we can know if all of creation is working as designed. Only God knows that. Some radical changes have occured since Genesis 3. There is language in Scripture about redemption and making new all creation. Now, does that mean our pets are redeemed? Or that pesky mosquito is reconciled? I have no idea. <br /><br />The point of what we're talking about is worship-- worship in all things and at all times-- and yes, it appears that humanity fall the shortest when it come to purpose and design. I look forward to the day when I completely understand and participate in what real worship is.<br /><br />... just thinking out loud.<br /><br />Thanks for getting us thinking.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09958802674036850912noreply@blogger.com
