Obsolescence

Obsolescence. It is the result of change.

It has to do with technology…styles…and manners.

But…sadly obsolescence causes some to change values. What was once considered sacred is now considered out of date…and best to be discarded.

Also…it can affect people – as if they too can be discarded. It’s the result of a throw-away mentality. Even life itself has been cheapened.

Against this background the gospel speaks with reassurance. “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”

Over and over again the Bible declares that God is unchangeable. He is eternally the same.

So…be careful what you declare to be obsolete. If it’s just stuff…it matters little. But if you are dealing with Biblical values – cling to them with tenacity.

This is about living responsibly in an ever-changing world.
