Drippings from the Honeycomb: The sweetness of God’s Word one verse at a time.
Do you think the Bible is boring? King David, in one of his psalms, said the Scriptures were so sweet they were like "drippings from the honeycomb." Perhaps it's time that we take a few minutes out of our busy lives and look at the Bible through fresh eyes! Join us on a weekly journey to find these "sweet drippings" as we walk through the books of the Bible by studying selected key verses through which we can glimpse the whole theme of each book! We will look at stories you might not have heard before, talk about the real people and places behind each of these verses, see how one verse can connect to many others across the entire Bible, and learn to see the beauty of God's sovereign plan which is woven through every page of His Word.

When Everything Is Gone (1 Peter 1:24-25)

We live in a crumbling world. Everywhere around us, we are reminded of the decay that started when man first rebelled against God. People and animals age and die, buildings crumble, nations fall, and empires are destroyed. This cursed world is in a constant cycle of ruin, destruction, and decay. Throughout history, humans have tried to create something that will last forever, but no one has ever accomplished it.
The simple reason for this is that nothing can be eternal unless it has an eternal foundation. The problem is that even the earth is not eternal; therefore, nothing built on the earth can be eternal. We know from the Scripture that God will destroy this earth and remake it. The Apostle Peter quoted the persecuted church by showing them that God’s Word is eternal. He rested on the words of the prophet Isaiah to show the believers that, even though the world was persecuting them, the church would stand forever - because God’s Word stands forever.
