The Benefits of Having a True Relationship With God.
Chapter 8 of the "God is With Us" series tells us what we can expect when we choose to have an intimate relationship with God the Father.
Chapter 8 of the "God is With Us" series tells us what we can expect when we choose to have an intimate relationship with God the Father.
This is Part 7 of the "God Is With Us" series. In this chapter, Pastor Terry teaches that God planned our existence far before he created us. Romans 8:29,30 tells us that God foreknew us, and that he predestined us to be conformed to the image of his Son, and who he chose, he called and he justified, and those he justified he also glorified. His desire is for us to become like Jesus to have an intimate relationship with us.
Pastor Terry shows us through the Old Testament scriptures that God loves us because he has chosen to. No matter what we have done in our past, he loves us. No matter what we have done today, God loves us. We were created by God so that he could walk with us and commune with us forever. He loved us so much he sent his Son to die for us as a final sacrifice to fulfill the Old Testament Law requiring a blood offering. Now, all that is necessary is to ask and all is forgiven and choose to walk with him.
Pastor Terry speaks today about the relationship of Esau and Jacob and compares and contrasts that with what the modern day Christian deals with during their personal walk with God.
