being curious i searched strongs based on Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever
[interesting... cos all the different versions give the same phrasing... super rare.]
anyhow... 'forever' in strongs in greek is αἰών (aiōn)
1) for ever, an unbroken age, perpetuity of time, eternity
2) the worlds, universe
3) period of time, age
and the root word is usually translated as 'always'
essentially.. forever is really forever... an immense sense of time, not our warped human perception. i did a quick search for the word 'forever' in NKJV... and there were promises upon promises that God made to His people... for every 'I will'... it's a promise that is unbreakable, for every commandment/ work... they last for eternity. talk about God being faithful.
and so i guess it boils down to this.
do i trust in my 'forever'?
or do i trust in His forever?
but talking about belief... it's easier said than done. still learning!^^ put my trust, hope in Him - and know that everything will be all right.
