Who Is Your God? Series

Contributed by Robert Fa’atoia-Collins on Jan 20, 2012

There is a great confusion about who God is. Is the Elohim God the same as YHWH?

Who is Your God? Someone once said that our view of God determines who we are. If we picture God as harsh and judgmental, uninterested in the value of human beings, then that will be our modus operandi in life. So if God is the centre of our life and work, what does that make us? We have all heard ...read more

Let There Be Series

Good cowboys wear white hats. Nicodemus was depending on his "goodness", keeping Jewish rules and his connection to Abraham. Our new American theology is not different....we want to depend on our own goodness. Jesus is not "one" way, but the only way.
