THINGS
MADE
NEW
(AGAIN)
Daniel A. Brown, Ph.D.
New Seasons and Years as Reminders And He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” And He said, “Write, for these words are faithful and true.” Revelation 21:5 …God, who gives life to the dead and calls into being that which does not exist. Romans 4:17 Thou dost send forth Thy Spirit, they are created; and Thou dost renew the face of the ground. Psalm 104:30
The Basis for Creation By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seenwas not made out of things which are visible. Hebrews 11:3 … by the word of God the heavens existed long ago… 2 Peter 3:5 For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword... Hebrews 4:12 “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.” John 6:63
The New Heavens and Earth “For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things shall not be remembered or come to mind.” Isaiah 65:17 But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells. 2 Peter 3:13
Singing, “That was Then; This is Now.” “Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. Behold, I will do something new, now it will spring forth; will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.” Isaiah 43:18-19 “Behold, the former things have come to pass, now I declare new things; before they spring forthI proclaim them to you.” Sing to the Lord a new song, sing His praise from the end of the earth! Isaiah 42:9-10 O Sing to the Lord a new song, for He has done wonderful things, His right hand and His holyarm have gained the victory for Him. Psalm 98:1 And He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God; many will see and fear, and will trust in the Lord. Psalm 40:3
