~ God Has A Logo & A Slogan ~
Please do
not take this blog post as sacrilegious, but may I suggest that only God
advertises without hyperbole or exaggeration.
First He advertises His power and work in
natural revelation—nature itself. “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament
shows His handiwork” (Psalm 19:1). “For since the creation
of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the
things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are
without excuse” (Romans 1:20).
Second He advertises His power and work in
special revelation—especially through
His written Word—the Scriptures. “All Scripture is
given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for
correction, for instruction in righteousness, that
the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:16-17).
If you look
around today, it is clear that the logo
of God in our age is the symbol of the Cross of Calvary—representing the
sacrificial death of His Son for your sins and mine. The slogan,
or that phrase which is most associated with the one true God in our period of
time, is John 3:16. “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son that
whoever believes in Him shall never perish but have everlasting life.”
conclusion: As in all advertising some respond and some
don’t. Have you personally investigated the reality of God?
