Essence Of God #5 Series

Contributed by Clyde White on Aug 12, 2005

Tragically, our limited human reasoning concludes that -- If God is a God of absolute justice, then He must be sitting up in heaven waiting to clobber us. That would have some validity, However, among those qualities of God’s essence, is also Love.

Paul told these Ephesians what the church was.

“Be gone, Satan! For it is written, “‘You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.’” [1] We know how to worship; we have the act down pat.
