EMBRACE THE TRUTH OF GOD’S GREATNESS
God has chosen to reveal truth through two primary means;
One way is called general revelation and refers to the way of creation and nature. You can look at the laws of nature and the beauty of creation and see that God is a powerful and majestic God. Creation and nature do not, however, reveal to us some other characteristics of God.
You cannot look at a sunset and see the holiness of God.
You cannot stare at the ocean and grasp the justice of God.
Those characteristics are found in what is called special revelation:
Special revelation includes the Bible and the Lord Jesus Christ.
To know of God we must read the Bible for there it tells us of His holiness and righteousness and grace and mercy and forgiveness of sin. And it is in Christ alone we can have a personal relationship to God. Jesus is the ultimate truth about God. If you really want to know God, then study Christ.
God doesn’t need our intellect.
He doesn’t need our expertise.
He doesn’t want our advice.
What He desires from us is our obedience, our reverence and our commitment.
He yearns for our prayers and petitions. That is the truth.
So ...why would you believe a godless professor?
An unbelieving politician? Or a dumb celebrity or athlete?
Jesus Christ is the truth about God!
“Great is Thy Faithfulness”
