    Contributed by Reg Watson on Jun 23, 2004
    based on 34 ratings
     | 15,948 views

    God is not fair in the way he deals with us. For that we can be thankful. Instead of being fair, he shows us mercy and grace.

    “The Unfairness of God” Psalm 103:8-10 June 20, 2004 When was the last time you felt like you were treated unfairly? When did you last think, “That’s not fair”? It doesn’t matter what it was about, it could have been anything. You just simply felt that whatever it was that happened, it wasn’t ...read more

     | 775 views

    God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit have saved us and now welcome us into the family of God. That’s a powerful point for us to take with us this Trinity Sunday. We are sanctified by the Spirit. We are children of the Father. We are siblings with the Son.

    “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness.” That’s how the creation account in Genesis 1 describes God’s decision to create human beings. And then on the sixth day of creation week that is exactly what he did. Of course, Genesis 2 gives us more detail about the “process” that God went ...read more

    Nothing can prevent YAHWEH from accomplishing His purpose. In light of God’s promise concerning His people’s future, they are told to rejoice. They will know comfort & plenty. They will be protected, for God will execute His judgment upon the wicked.

    ISAIAH 66: 10-17 REJOICE BECAUSE OF GOD’S PROMISES [2 Thess. 1:7-9] Nothing can prevent YAHWEH from accomplishing His purpose of repopulating Jerusalem with new life.

     | 27,255 views

    God’s love toward us is unconditional.

    God is gracious. What does that mean? That God has good manners? That He’s courteous? No. "God’s grace is His free and unmerited favor". Let’s examine that. God’s grace is "unmerited". It is undeserved. It is unearned. It is purely a gift. We receive good things from God, not in response to ...read more

    A young undergraduate at Cambridge who had never read the Bible before was given a New Testament to read. When he had done so, he commented, ‘It was a bit repetitious at the beginning, but I did enjoy the science-fiction at the end!’ Well, I think most of us would say it’s rather more than that! ...read more

    God is a God of mercy

    GOD OF MERCY I once saw a sign outside a convent that read ‘Trespassers will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.’ Underneath it was signed Sisters of Mercy.

    Today, we are going to examine a topic that once was considered to be a very basic part of religious life. It was discussed quite often even to the extent that it was part of common conversation back in the days of our great-grandparents. Today, the topic is shunned by society and even by most ...read more
