A Sign From Heaven

from The Bible as Literature · host The Ephesus School

In good times and bad, in peace and at moments of crisis, an evil generation seeks a sign. We want a sign that the good times will keep rolling. We want assurances that the crisis of this moment will come to an end. That’s why we’re “an evil generation”—because we look for signs in the world that satisfy our appetite for comfort and security. Such signs—the projection of our fears—are most certainly evil. The only valid sign in God’s eyes is the sign post he plants in our eyes through the hearing of his instruction. That’s why no sign will be given to us, “except the sign of Jonah.” (Matthew 16:4)Richard and Fr. Marc discuss Matthew 16:1-4.Episode 320 Matthew 16:1-4; Music: Air Prelude by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3346-air-preludeLicense: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
