The Right Side of History

There has been a lot of talk recently about finding ourselves on the right side of history in certain issues. We feel the pull of the moment, the need to be relevant, and to fit in at this juncture in history. But, the Gospel call is always to see our lives as happening in a moment that is set in eternity, and to keep the final days in view. God is sovereign over history, and the only way to actually be on the right side of history is to trust His promises and join His purpose. Like the people building the Temple in Haggai's day, we too have our moment in history, and it includes the call to stay true to the Scriptures and proclaim the Gospel to the nations.
