Beyond Time
During 2016, theater companies in Britain and around the world staged special productions to mark the 400th anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare. Crowds gathered at concerts, lectures, and festivals to celebrate the enduring work of the man widely considered to be the greatest playwright in the English language. Ben Jonson, one of Shakespeare’s contemporaries, wrote of him, “He was not of an age, but for all time.” While the influence of some artists, writers, and thinkers may last for centuries, Jesus Christ is the only person whose life and work will endure beyond time.
He claimed to be “the true bread that came down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread... will live forever” (John 6:58). When many people who heard Jesus’s teaching were offended by His words and stopped following Him, the Lord asked His disciples if they also wanted to leave. Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words that give eternal life. We believe, and we know you are the Holy One of God” (John 6:61–69). When we invite Jesus to come into our lives as our Lord and Savior, we join His first disciples and all those who have followed Him in a new life that will last forever—beyond time.
