In the beginning there was darkness everywhere, and Chaos ruled. Within the darkness there formed an egg, and inside the egg the giant Pangu came into being. For aeons, safely inside the egg, Pangu slept and grew. When he had grown to gigantic size he stretched his huge limbs and in so doing broke the egg. The lighter parts of the egg floated upwards to form the heavens and the denser parts sank downwards, to become the earth. And so was formed earth and sky, Yin and Yang.
This text is a reminder that our faith isn’t rooted in fairy tales and fiction. While the source of most world religions can’t be traced to historical facts, Christianity is lashed to the eyewitness testimony of those who had a complete knowledge of the historical Jesus. Peter and the other apostles didn’t have to fabricate stories about Jesus; they had actually seen him and done life with him.

Wouldn’t you live differently if you knew Jesus were coming back tonight? Wouldn’t it make you ask the questions, ‘Am I ready?’ or ‘Am I living today in a way that I’d be happy to see him tonight?’ At my church we would often end our services with the pastor saying, ‘Maranatha,’ which means, ‘The Lord is coming.’ And we would respond, ‘And it could be today.’ I think we could use more of that attitude. It could be today, and this may be your last chance to repent, last chance to forgive, last chance to share the gospel.
