Alien Hope - Part 3

Jan 26, 2025    Steve Deane

In this powerful exploration of 2 Peter 3:5-13, we're challenged to rethink our understanding of the 'elements'. Rather than a literal destruction of the physical universe, we're invited to see God's plan as one of redemption and transformation. The 'elements' refer not to material substances, but to the old order - laws, traditions, and philosophies that enslave us. God's fire isn't meant to destroy creation, but to purify it and set us free from these binding 'elements.' This revelation paints a picture of a loving Father who's not out to obliterate His creation, but to save it. As we grasp this truth, we're called to live differently, embracing our role in God's new order and helping to bring about His kingdom on earth. This message challenges us to see beyond our limited perspective and trust in God's ultimate plan of restoration for all creation.
