    Ok God, What Do You Want From Me?

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Sep 20, 2025
     | 228 views

    Religion can sometimes be seen as a system of laws or rules designed to please God, but that is not what God wants. God wants a loving relationship with His Children, and that we follow His commands because we Love Him! Micah 6 and Galatians 5 help us to see the difference between Love and Legalism.

    Good Morning. This morning, we have 2 excellent lessons intended to guide God’s people back on track from bad mindsets. Micah 6 begins in a heavenly courtroom. All of creation, the mountains and hills, are poetically called in as a jury to witnesses God’s case against His people. Israel has lost ...read more

    How will the child of God be known throughout eternity? The Word of God hints at the transformation and testifies to the importance of God’s knowledge of who we are.

    "God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another"
