Michael's PlaceAugust 17 GRACE = God's Redemption At Christ's ExpenseGod, the Father, sent His Son, Jesus Christ, into this world for one specific purpose. The purpose was for the Perfect Son of God to die for a sinful human race in order to restore fellowship with the Creator-Owner (God). This was accomplished on our behalf but in order to regain fellowship you must believe this (that Jesus Christ died for your sins) with your whole heart. You then can reap the benefits of fellowship with God.
One final thought: If you accept this precious gift remember that God has given us what we DO NOT derserve (eternal life wih Him) and that He DID NOT give us what we DO deserve (eternal separation from God in HELL). July 13 What happened next...not robots but given a choice (our will)When God made man and woman He gave them a will. He did not want them (or us) to be mere robots, doing whatever He wanted. He wanted them (and us) to have fellowship with Him (He only gave them certain rules to obey). But, alas, that fellowship did not last. For Satan (disguised as a serpent) set doubt in their minds and said that eating of the fruit would make them as gods. They showed disobedience to God (by lusting after the fruit and wanting to exalt themselves to be like God) and therefore sin (a direct result of disobedience to His laws) entered into the world. They tried to make a feeble attempt to cover up their sin. But their attempt failed (just like ours do). God then made the first sacrifice to give a temporary covering for their sins (clothe them). (read Genesis 3)
The story does not end there though... July 12 In The Beginning - The Creator God vs. Big Bang/EvolutionGod Himself (Three-In-One (Father, Son - Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit)) was the only "active agent" in the creation of this universe.
The Big Bang Theory where the earth just appeared and floated around for millions of years and then suddenly formed vegetation (on an asteroid) is absurd. Then as for us coming from an amoeba (the simplest form of life), how that (the amoeba) come about, and then somehow multiply cells and eventually becoming an anthropod (after a few more million years) takes a lot of faith. These anthropods (apes) eventually became man (another millions of years). And yet there are still apes around? Was there several "mutations", is that why there are still apes? And where does the various languages come into being (another blog at a later date)? The various gaps between the "age of mankind" (the various hominids) demands a lot of explanation. All of these statements and questions take a lot of faith.
Yet In the Bible we read: "In the beginning God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) created the heaven (stars, planets and galaxies) and the earth." Genesis 1:1; "And God said "Let Us (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) make man..." Gen 1:26.
It therefore takes more faith to believe the "scientists and evolutionists" theory (yes it is still considered theory) than to take the Bible at it's Word. Just REALLY think about it, Big Bang = asteroid, vegetation, amoeba, anthropods (apes), mutations to form difference between mankind and apes (with millions of years separating each aspect) or a Creator God. You decide. July 11 DISCONNECTED?Have you ever felt disconnected, not part of a crowd/group? Have you ever felt lost, nowhere to go?
That's where I was years ago. In these blogs I will share my thoughts and musings about life and about the most important person ever in my life. His Name is Jesus Christ, my Saviour and Lord.
I know you probably will want to leave right now but PLEASE DON'T. Just bear with me as I explain why He means so much to me.
In His Word, The Bible, it explains how history began and how it will end, how we alienated ourselves from God and how we can get back into fellowship with Him.
I hope to share some thoughts on what He means to me through what I read in His Word. |
