Hubble Images and Humility 3 years 27 weeks ago

When ancient pagans looked to the night sky, they saw stars, moon, and the occasional comet. They saw gods and seasons and changes in constellations if they paid close attention.

Mostly what they beheld was the vastness of their world. How humble such vastness can make one feel. In our world of close images, unbelievable focus and seeing to the smallest iota of matter, the images from the Hubble Telescope show us how small our place really is as humans in the grand scheme. These images are what the night sky was to our ancestors.

In christianity, the centre of everything is God. The highest of all things is omnipotent which means that it has infinite power and it is also omniscient which is just another term for all-knowing. Therefore God is above everything and Christianity holds also the belief that God is perfectly just and good-willing. This is a great contrast to Greek philosophy where God is more shown as something almighty but without its own real will. In the bible, God is shown as „Creator“ and that he made everything is accepted without questioning.

This Psalm, I believe, is more of a message from David, given by God, to the people of the coming Messiah. There are four key points that I would like to point out in this chapter of Psalm.

Psalm 51 - The Classic Text of A Beautiful Prayer of Repentance 3 years 26 weeks ago

Some texts of Scripture are so powerfully clear, so penetrating and convicting, that it almost seems a disservice to exposit them. Psalm 51 is just such a passage. It is no wonder that Charles Spurgeon said of this psalm, “Such a psalm may be wept over, absorbed into the soul, and exhaled again in devotion; but, commented on – ah! Where is he who having attempted it can do other than blush at his defeat?” Expecting better than defeat, but still with a blush, let’s take a look at the Psalter’s best known penitential psalm.
