From Chaos to Order

MARTY—If you want to find out what disorder is like in your life, all you have to do is sin. Sin will bring disorder to your life. I have seen sin destroy homes because of adultery. I have seen many lives destroyed because of drugs, alcohol, perversion. There is a price to pay for rejecting the government, order, of Yahweh.
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth and the earth was without order. It was without form (Gen.1:2). But Holy Spirit hovered over the earth and brought order. Jn.3:16, “For God so loved the world [i.e., His created order] that He gave His only begotten Son.” Why? Because that order He created was set into chaos by man’s sin. So God wanted His order back. He knew His order was best and chaos was destructive. His order is righteousness and peace and joy (Rom.14:17). So He gave His only begotten Son. Why? So that all of this chaos could be brought back into order. Only Jesus can bring the chaos of the world back into order.
