… One generation will commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts. In Psalm 71, he says, I am now an older man, and I have been led by you from my youth and I still proclaim your mighty deeds. And so it is the longing of my heart, the psalmist says, that I will continue to proclaim your wondrous works until the generations that are yet to come will understand and believe these things. Now generational transitions are understandable to us. more so in the time in which we live than perhaps even in earlier centuries. It's hard for many of us to understand that the terminology, for example, of a teenager was an unknown notion until for halfway through the 20th century. And what is a generation after all? It's unlikely that there are any members here. It's not impossible, but it's unlikely that there are any members here of Generation Beta. Although I did hear some rumblings in the back earlier on. If you're Generation Beta, you were born in 2025. …
… And there will never be a moment that you enter when he is not already there as God. Psalm 90 verse 2 says, from everlasting to everlasting, you are God. See, family, you and me, we remember yesterday. We occupy today. We kind of can get nervous about tomorrow. But God is the creator of time. Our great Lord, Isaiah 46 says, he declares the end from the beginning. Think about what that means. That whatever is waiting for you and me tomorrow cannot surprise God. You will never enter a day in which God is like not already Lord. So God is eternal according to the scriptures. God is also transcendent. So you have this eternal God that's transcendent. When I say transcendent, now this is related to him being eternal, but not the same thing. See, eternality answers the question, how does God relate to time? Right? He's outside of time. Transcendence answers this broader question when you think of God. How does God relate to creation? Sometimes you can think about God, I don't know about you, but sometimes you can think about God as like, okay, yes, he's really powerful. …
… as we saw a couple of times in chapter 1. From everlasting to everlasting, you are God. Psalm 90, verse 2. From everlasting to everlasting, you are God. There are some beings who had a beginning and will have an end, animals. There are some who had a beginning but will not have an end, angels and people. But there is only one who had no beginning and no end. That is God, 1 Timothy 1 identifies as the eternal King. Why is that important? Because it means that forever and forever and forever He will sustain His will. That's a comfort to believers, that He will get us to heaven and keep us there forever. It's terrifying to nonbelievers because He will send them to hell, and He, by His eternal life, will guarantee their eternal destruction. God is eternal. So is hell. As long as God lives, the damned are punished. In chapter 14 of Revelation, it says, when God's wrath and anger comes, the smoke, verse 11, of their torment, those who are under this judgment, goes up forever and ever. …
