A Mountain among mountains

Friends,

Every sect, every religion, every philosophy struggles for supremacy. Each claims to represent the paragon of virtue and morality. Each claims to hold the secret for happiness, either for today, for eternity or for both. But although all of them claim the high place, it is the LORD that shall dwell above them all...

Isaiah 2:2
Now it shall come to pass in the latter days
That the mountain of the LORD’s house
Shall be established on the top of the mountains,
And shall be exalted above the hills;
And all nations shall flow to it. [NKJV]

The multitude of mountains represent the multitude of beliefs and traditions, each one claiming to be holier than the rest. And the dwelling place of God ... His mountain ... is over them all, exalted above them and rendering them all irrelevant.

Do not fear the traditions of man, nor be impressed by the spectacle of religion. Remember that the LORD is truly the One True Almighty God.

Be encouraged, Jose
