    What we know about God is what God reveals about Himself. We must allow God to determine our understanding of who He is.

    We're going to talk about one God today. If we were to walk down the street and ask everybody we encountered, "Do you believe in God?" most people would say yes. The problem is, what are we defining as God? Who are we defining as God? How are we defining God? When we talk about this ...read more

    God Of The Bible

    Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jul 24, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,179 views

    Thinking correctly about God is of utmost importance because a false idea about God is idolatry. It is much easier to know doctrines than it is to know God - because you don't have to pay a price to know the doctrines.

    The first and primary evidence for the existence of God is the existence of the creation. It is only natural that man, being a reasoning creature, should ask questions about the creation and the creator. Obviously, the universe and all that in it, had not been created by man, and yet its design ...read more

    The Trinity- Triune God

    Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Aug 7, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,143 views

    In contrast to the polytheism of the heathen world with its many gods and idols, the Christian faith centers in one God. This God, however, is revealed to be a Trinity, including the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

    Though, the word “Trinity” is not found in the Bible, yet scholars, Church history and traditions have validated it over the past 2,000 years along with many other theological concepts not found explicitly in the Bible. There are passages of scriptures found in the Bible that have hints of a ...read more

    What if… the Trinity was not a puzzle to solve, but a Person to know? What if understanding God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit wasn’t just theological doctrine, but a doorway to deeper intimacy with God, powerful prayer, richer Bible reading, and a renewed spiritual life?

    Step into the courtroom of your heart and listen closely, because God has placed within history—and even within you—three unshakeable witnesses to the truth of Jesus Christ. And these witnesses cry out for your belief, your repentance, and your surrender.

    Go! And Believe the Witness! - 1 John 5:7–8 INTRODUCTION: THE COURTROOM OF ETERNITY Imagine standing in a courtroom. The air is tense. The judge is on the bench, and you are not the observer—you are the one on trial. Evidence is being presented. Witnesses are called. The question is: What will the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 320 views

    There are two groups of people that Jesus spoke about. One who may initially reject God, but later repent and truly turn to God. The other group are those who claim to follow Jesus, but are dichotomous and far from doing the will of God. The question is, ‘Where do we stand?’

    We read in Proverbs 22:29, “Do you see a person who is efficient in his work? He will serve kings. He will not serve unknown people.”(GW) When a person gets a good job, their entry to that job is only the first step. Their goal should be to fulfill the expectations of their superiors, and to ...read more

    Is the confession of John the Baptist, combined with the affirmation of God, enough for you to believe that Jesus is the Son of God? Or, do you still need Jesus to perform for you in order that you can be convinced that He is who He said He is?
