As you are about to hear in this PODCAST, you and I arrest the attention of the entire Trinity when we come to be characterized by THIS.
Want to know what the “this” is in that sentence above? Keep listening.
You are in for a blessing for sure.

God bless you richly as you listen.
It is the single saddest day on the Jewish calendar.
As you are about to hear in this PODCAST, that statement, purposely given with the present tense “is,” is true today.
It was equally true for Peter’s original Jewish readers.
One day each year, indelibly imprinted on the collective psyches of our Jewish friends then and now.
“It is today as it was then.”
A day which reads in English, “the ninth day of the month of Av” (usually around our month of August).
In Hebrew it is called, Tisha B’Av.
If we don’t understand what this day is all about, we will not understand what the closing verses of 1 Peter 1 are all about. For Peter’s original readers. And for us!

Jesus pronounced this amazing blessing on His followers: “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”
An amazing blessing to be sure. But is it an empty one? Who of us is actually “pure in heart”? Did not Jeremiah pronounce our hearts “desperately wicked”? Yes, I’m afraid he did.
And who of us can actually see God? Did not God tell Moses that “no one can see Me and live”? Yes, I’m afraid He did.
So what gives with this blessing, and its corresponding promise? Is this a bankrupt blessing? A pointless promise? At least as far as this life is concerned?
Oh, my friends. As you listen to this PODCAST, you are about to see some things that you have perhaps never seen before.
If this podcast is a blessing to you, PLEASE share it with your loved ones and friends. PLEASE “Like” it and “Share” it on Facebook and/or Twitter. I’d be most grateful, and so would they!
