Thoughts on the Wind
John 3:8 – “The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou
hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it
cometh, and whither it goeth; so is every one that is born
of the Spirit.”
The first time WIND is mentioned in God’s Holy Word (K.J.T.)
is found in Gen. 8:1 – “And God remembered Noah, and
every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in
the ark: and GOD MADE A WIND TO PASS OVER the earth, and the
waters asswaged.”
Exegesis would require us to conclude that the WIND is not
sovereign nor independent, as GOD Himself CAUSED the RULES
OF THE WEATHER – meteorology – and thereby can “cause the
wind to pass over.”
Wind is mentioned all through the Old, and also in the New
Testament.
However, the thrust of this writing is to establish the
continuous fact that WIND is NOT independent nor sovereign.
All WEATHER factors are GUIDED by THE CONTROLLER, who is God
in one of the Holy Spirit Frameworks. At any time that suits
the Holy Trinity’s objectives He becomes THE CONTROLLER,
even in that of the NEW BIRTH! |
