Article Description
One hundred years ago, a seminary professor in Pennsylvania had the audacity to claim that by 2025, people would use a pocket-sized apparatus for communications to see and hear each other without being in the same room. Everyone knows that the future is unknowable. What we sometimes fail to understand is that the present is unknowable as well. Heisenberg’s “uncertainty principle” demonstrates that physicists cannot measure both the position and the speed of a particle at the same time. I say all of that to say this: The omniscient God who created and transcends time is our best source for facing our fears of the future.
