"The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead." -- Acts 17:30-31
There are times when some wonder if there is any order in the universe. More directly, some are at a loss to see any order in their personal lives. And finally, is there to be any order as we face future days? Well, as sure as the sun rises in the morning, there is order for every life.
Paul speaks of God's order in this way: 1) Now he commands all people to repent, 2) He has fixed a day for judgment and, 3) A man (the risen Christ) has been appointed as judge. To put it in other words, our lives are ordered around two days and one person.
