Evening: Psalms 64, 65; Matthew 13:36-43
I may have quoted here before Theodore of Mopsuestia (350-428), affectionately known as “Teddy the Mop”? He taught: the end will be like the beginning, only better! There has been much speculation about ‘the end’, sometimes put on the lips of Jesus to give it validity. To hear that the causes of sin will be rooted out and burned gives me hope. To hear that all evildoers will be rooted out and burned and ‘the righteous will shine like the sun’ gives me the creeps. (Who is righteous!?) I’m sure Jesus taught that the end will be better than this.
