town talk

The value of our lives comes from our personal relationship with God.
In difficult times this relationship has a potential to become even more personal.
Every believer can directly speak to God and hear God speak to him.
No mediator except Jesus, God Himself, is needed. I Tim. 2:5
This leaves no room for religious manipulation.
This is the basis for us respecting people’s individuality and
their private conversations with God.
God calls born-again believers by name.
The famous Jewish midwives, Shiprah and Puah, are mentioned in the book
of Exodus , but the powerful pharaoh is just called a king who did not know Joseph.
The rich man’s name is not known to God, but he calls Lazarus by name in Luke 16.
So many politicians and world rulers have left their mark in earthly history books,
but their names are not mentioned in heaven’s book of life. Rev.13:8
We will have a distinct name forever.
I don’t believe that we will be called by our earthly names in heaven.
We will have a new name. This name will somehow describe our new life and our
personal relationship with God. Everyone will have a different name.
It’s probably similar to the angels’ names.
God includes his own name in them.
GabriEL – Mighty man of God
MichaEL – Who is like God
Maybe we will be called Murattel, Rogertel, Lizel, Alpel, Ninael etc.
I like the idea that God gave new names to people after they had a personal
encounter with him:
Abram became Abraham, Jacob became Israel, Sarai became Sarah,
Saul became Paul.
It’s so interesting to think what would the Trinity call us when they speak
within their relationship about us?
Yes, I believe that we are talked about in heaven
as we continue to be the most interesting thing happening on this planet.
