A Brief History of Intergalactic Communication - Those who don’t learn from history are bound to make its mistakes

Now, I really can’t blame God for failure to communicate with us. He spoke to Abraham. He spoke to Moses. He spoke to kings. He spoke to and through the prophets. But, throughout human history to this very day, most of us, most of the time have managed to either ignore or misunderstand His message.

So, God gives us this one last shot – He puts all His eggs in one single Easter basket – He becomes a human! I know I am mixing metaphors here combining Easter and Christmas. But, in reality, without Christmas there would be no Easter. And without Easter there would be no purpose to Christmas. Christmas would be just a brief alien visit similar to Santa's that happened long time ago with no relevance to you and me today or any other day of the year. Anyway, back to communication. In Jesus, God becomes human, flesh and bones, hungry and tired, mocked and misunderstood, beaten and crucified human. Everything we ever need to know about God is presented to us in this one package – fully God, fully Man, perfect Interpreter.

You would think now we have it all figured out – the intergalactic wires that got crossed back in the Garden of Eden finally repaired and we are ON. Well, not so fast, my friend. No matter what anybody else says, Jesus already said everything we need to hear and know about God. Jesus did everything that needed to be done to repair the broken wire. Jesus also promised the Power Cord that would keep us charged and tuned up to the right channel. Jesus sent the Power Cord aka the Holy Spirit 50 days after the first Easter, so now we have this built-in two-way HAM radio with direct line to God the Father. How cool is that?!! But that’s not all! He also made some people back then write all this stuff to make sure the message doesn’t get screwed up and compile it in a book. Now, I am on my turf and can relate to these poor writers trying to keep up with God and scrambling to do everything they can to stay out of His way and not screw up the message with their own little spins.

So, what’s the problem? Why aren’t we still hearing from God?
