Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. – Matthew 24:35 (NIV)

Today’s commentary by Dave Whitehead, Author of Making Sense of the Bible

Think about this: everything that you see around you will pass away, but the promises of God will last forever. When the Assyrians were at the height of their power, it seemed like the Assyrian Empire would never fall—but they were wrong. When the Romans heard these words of Jesus, they probably scoffed—but they were wrong. In the same way, you may feel like you are up against things that will never change. This promise from Jesus says something different. It may take time, but God’s promises are faithful. They will never fail.
