God Speaks, 5

 

~ God Speaks Through An Audible Voice ~

 

Series Introduction ~ The one true God is a relational God who desires interaction with His created humans.  But it is up to each person to choose to listen carefully to the God of this universe.  In this series we look at various ways God communicates to us if we are willing to listen.  Keep in mind throughout this series that the most basic and important way to hear from God is read The Holy Bible with an open mind. 

 

Scripture ~ “As he [Saul] journeyed he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven.  Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?’  

 

“And he said, ‘Who are You, Lord?’

 

“Then the Lord said, ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.  It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’  

 

“So he, trembling and astonished, said, ‘Lord, what do You want me to do?’

 

“Then the Lord said to him, ‘Arise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do’” (Acts 9:3-6).

 

Note also that while the Son of God was on earth the Father spoke to Him.

 

“Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say?  ‘Father, save Me from this hour?’  But for this purpose I came to this hour.  Father, glorify Your name.”

 

“Then a voice came from heaven, saying, ‘I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.’  

 

“Therefore the people who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered.  Others said, ‘An angel has spoken to Him’” (John 12:27-29).

10 Essential Facts, 6of10

 

~ Jesus Died For YOUR Sins ~

 

Introduction ~ The most important fundamentals of Christianity include beliefs about the birth of Jesus, His sinless life, His death, His burial, and His resurrection.

 

In this series we look at ten facts about Jesus Christ.

 

Scripture ~ “But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe.  For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:21-23).

 

“For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.  For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.  But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.  Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.  For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.  And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation” (Romans 5:6-11).

 

Note: Jesus died in your place to pay the penalty (death) of YOUR sins. But like any other gift you must accept His great gift to you – or it is of no benefit to you.
