“But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall come forth unto me (He) that is to be ruler in Israel, WHOSE GOING FORTH (on other missions on behalf of the Most High God), have been from of old, FROM EVERLASTING (throughout all of eternity past)” (See Micah 5:2).
That quote from the prophet Micah speaks of Jesus Christ and His human birth in Bethlehem, but notice that the text says that this was not the first and only mission Jesus Christ performed for God the Father. It plainly says that Jesus had been sent forth on such missions “from of old, from everlasting!”
The Bible doesn’t tell the full story, folks. We are only given a short, highly condensed history of God and His works in the Bible. God is eternal. He existed throughout all of eternity past. He is a super-intelligent, creative being. Do not even think earth and mankind was God’s first exercise in creating. He was creating trillions of ages before He ever said, “Let us make man in our image….”
To say what awaits the obedient and faithful redeemed, when we enter into the spirit realm following our resurrection, will be mind-boggling is a gross understatement. We will see and be part of something no human mind can conceive of or would ever dream possible. You don’t want to miss it. God promises to reward His faithful servants. A word to the wise….
