“City of New Orleans” is a country folk song written by Steve Goodman. It describes a train ride from Chicago to New Orleans in bittersweet and nostalgic terms. According to the song, this would be its last trip.
Do you know in this creation everything has an end? Life as we know it, Satan’s antics, man’s rule and the present universe will be dissolved. Since there is an end to so much that is familiar to us, what ought we to do? Good question. Peter gave us the answer in his last epistle.
Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,
looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?
Give it some consideration.
