Zephaniah 3:9

"For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the Lord, to serve him with one consent."
Zephaniah 3:9


How amazing would it be if there were no language barriers... if we could all speak the same language?  This scripture is talking about the second coming, and that after a lot of destruction-type things, that God will give us all a pure language... imagine that.  Not that we don't love French, and Russian, and English... I mean, I was an English major; I *love* words and the cool things you can do with them... but just think: everyone speaking the same language, and a PURE language... one where your meaning is apparent, no having to say things 19 times to try to express your thoughts. :) Think of the poetry you could write, because the exact word *will* be there when you need it. :) On the down side, I will have to replace all of my refrigerator magnetic poetry magnets... but on the upside... maybe men and women will finally be able to communicate. :)
Seriously, to be able to say exactly what you mean... and to be able to talk to anyone, anywhere, without that extra barrier of language... that is amazing.  The spirit already breaks down barriers, but this is huge... and think of how many barriers will have to come down before we can build a common community... before we can become one as a Zion people.
