These days one can sometimes tell the age of someone by their use of punctation. Not sure of all the alphabet soup of names from age groups, but it's my guess that "Baby Boomers" often use too many commas and "Millennials" rarely use commas or even periods for that matter.
Last Sunday, Pastor Taylor Park stressed the importance of correct punctuation in Scripture.
Sometimes in sharing biblical truth verbally one will add a lilt in his/her voice, as if doubting, wondering or asking a question. Jesus is the son of God? That is a true statement----not a question!
God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God and God abides in him. (1John 4:16)
The commas tell us there is more to say. More to the story/statement.
Note the period. That ends it. Period indicates a full stop. It's truth declared.
One might even add a relational explanation point to indicate profound truth as it applies to him/her!
Allow God's word to erase the question marks in your faith life and add more periods allowing your life of faith to be filled with the best punctuation marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
