pursuits in our walk with God. These struggles even the apostles battled through. Ironically, the testimonies of these gentlemen encapsulated my journey with God over this past week. My eagerness to have the perfect life with a magnificent God-Mate and children was being held back by my innate nature of being naturally flawed. Let me reconfigure the past week with you. Closing up last week, I started speaking to a fellow classmate of mine who seems simply divine. She loves God, loves the medical field
One: GOD God is God, no matter how simple that statement is, it is true and always will be. No one can know God perfectly, He is infinite and no one can wrap their minds around just exactly who God is. Most of us know about God, but that is quite different from actually knowing God. Our God is bigger and greater than anything anyone could ever think of. Yet the Bible tells us many things about God and the way He works that could help us better understand Him. Our God is three in one, God being
Who is God? Is a question I can easily imagine a kid asking an adult and the latter replying with God is our creator, or God is an old bearded guy up in the sky watching over us, or even God is a supreme immortal creator deity that certain people believe in. All those responses are different because those replies are based upon that person’s beliefs and values. There is no single correct answer to who or what is God . An answer to the question “Who or what is God?” can reveal how a person views God
The second theme is to know that God is a forgiving God. 25:7 “Do not remember the rebellious sins of my youth. Remember in the light of your unfailing love, for you are merciful, O Lord” (NLT). This passage of scripture gives light that as humans, children of God will fall short and sin, but now because of the goodness of God he allowed his only begotten Son, Jesus to wash sins away with his blood. Psalm 25:7 relates to Job 13:26, in which this verse relates to the Job to the sins he knows that
God has taught me a lot through every single year here at ZCS. I have my ups and downs, but he’s always the one that follows through on his promise, to always be with us. Zeeland Christian has been a blessing and can’t wait for what’s ahead of me to come. I have made many connections through Christ through everything that I do at school. Through all my years at Zeeland Christian, I have been through many experiences that have grown me closer to God, spiritually, academically, and through relationships
feel for who God is, how he acts, his temperament, and what his personality is like. One of the most prominent characteristics that stood out about God as I read the Bible is that God has emotions just like us: --God can be happy, content or pleased. This is mentioned several times in the Bible. One example: When Solomon chose wisdom as the one thing he could have from God. --God can become upset or angry. This is mentioned numerous times in the Bible. The most prominent: God became displeased
God, as we all know, can be the most loving being since he is love. All throughout the old testament we see different places where God has shown his love and compassion towards people. One example of this is when God makes Adam and Eve. God gives them dominion over the earth and everything on it. “God created man in his image; in the divine image he created him; male and female he created them. 28 God blessed them, saying: "Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it. Have dominion over
famously said, “What comes to our mind when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” Do you view God as a hard to please master? Do you need to work to earn his favor? Do you work hard in your own efforts to bring before him your own good deeds with the hope he will be pleased by them? Or do you see God as a righteous and gracious savior, who bestows mercy upon those who desperately need it. Regardless of how we view God, the truth is that we are all in desperate need of God’s mercy
Whether God exists or not has been a question for a long time. Because of man’s interest and lack of knowledge, arguments for the existence of God have been for many years. These arguments are divided into two categories: philosophical and logical. The arguments give us information about the existence of God, but it is people’s choice to believe in God or not. I would like to start this essay with saying that I believe that there is a God above and beyond us all. In this paper I will discuss my religious
Scripture is breathed-out by God, and is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3.16). The Bible was written by "holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost" (2 Peter 1.20-21). Because it is completely inspired by God, the Word of God is the definition of objective truth (John 17.7), for it is "true from the beginning" (Psalm 119.160) and God "cannot lie" (Titus 1.2). It is pure and holy (Proverbs 30.5). The Word of God has existed since the
