Psalm 98

One minute was all I needed to read this psalm. I wonder who wrote this uncredited psalm? I wonder why God chose this person to reveal a picture of the judgment day; that day when God will set all of creation and every person right. There will be a celebration of God's greatness by all of creation and God's people are encouraged to join in. In verse 2 the psalmist speaks of the wonders of God salvation, a reality created in Christ, but recorded here centuries before Jesus' ministry and death. The wonder of God's creation was celebrated in the lives of historic Jew before Christ's nativity and in the lives of Christians today. A picture of an eternal celebration.
