How We Believe In God?

 

The Holy God Most High Calls Each Person To Apologise

God is absolutely perfect devoid of even the least tint of bad in His character.
Holy God is the originator of purity, patience, love, holiness, honesty and much, much more than that. And that is the way He created this planet.

Specifically What Did You Know On The Subject Of Holy God?

It isn't an idea that God simply decided to enact, to make life difficult for us, it really is who He is. He cannot become something else, or do anything else. All His commands are there to preserve His holy character and to guard us.
These governing laws were instituted 'into' the whole universe, and more than that, moulded into the human race.
He will not do something that is inconsistent with His Integrity. You might consider it the 'established laws and regulations of the whole universe.'
And so, the Sovereign God of the Holy Bible is the Grand Creator God of the entire universe, as well as the creator of the minutest component of an electron, which is unseen by us. The Bible tells us this of God Most High:

?I am the LORD, that is My name; I will not give My glory to another, Nor My praise to idols. (Isaiah 42:8) Indeed, the LORD your God is a consuming fire. He is a jealous God." (Deuteronomy 4:24)
The LORD is high above all nations, And His glory above the heavens. (Psalm 113:4)
Yours, O LORD, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. Everything in the heavens and on earth is yours, O LORD, and this is your kingdom. We adore you as the one who is over all things. (1 Chronicles 29:11)
And all the angels stood around the throne...and fell before the throne upon their faces, and worshipped God, (Revelation 7:11)
Where were you when I founded the earth? Declare, if you have known understanding... (Job 38:4)
Surely you know, for you were born then, and the number of your days is great!..... (Job 38:21)
"Can you bind the chains of Pleiades or loosen the cords of Orion?..... (Job 38:31)
And Jehovah will answer Job, and he will say, ?Will the faultfinder contend with the Almighty? Let him who argues with God give an answer.? Then Job answered Yahweh, Behold, I am of small account; what shall I answer thee? I lay mine hand upon my mouth. I spoke once, but I can't answer- twice, but not again." Can You Be Like Me, Job?..... Wilt thou even disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be justified? ?Or do you have an arm like God, And can you thunder with a voice like His? (Job 40:1-5, 8,9)
Then Job answered the LORD. "I know that You can do all things, and that no thought can be withheld from You. You asked why I talk so much when I know so little. I have talked about things that are far beyond my understanding. ?Hear, and I will speak; I will question you, and you make it known to me.? ?I have heard of Thee by the hearing of the ear; But now my eye sees Thee; I take back everything I said, and I sit in dust and ashes to show my repentance.? (Job 42:1-6)
Blessed are the poor in pride, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:3)


Generally, humanity nowadays, have only heard about God, they are yet to truly connected with Him.
Then why, do humans haughtily insist on explanations from Holy God, to pretty much everything we do not like? Sure, the big concerns we have of the suffering of the innocent and of universal justice are correct, however, not to the point where we can demand that the Supreme Creator God to give humans an account of His seemingly inadequate handling of our existence.

If Almighty God Makes An Item, It Belongs To Him

The Most High God not only is the owner of the universe, but He also is the owner of us too, and all He would like is what is His. His demand is to be devoted to Him in turn. It usually is difficult to accept, but this planet is His enterprise, and He can make it how He chooses. If you or I produced it, we can set the rules. However, Almighty God proclaims:

'and thou shalt love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. And these words, which I command you this day, shall be in your heart:' (Deuteronomy 6:5-6)

Human Beings Were Not Crafted As Bots Or Even As Puppies But As Children

God could have removed all of the problems out of this life, to give us a better life, but only by creating every individual as dutiful robotic machines. Except that is most assuredly not what He desired.
God Most High sought an individual endowed with a choice about how they lived and are able to willingly decide to be devoted to Him.
A being somewhat like Himself.

Independent Choice Is Alas, A Dangerous Device

However, the possibility with granting your generated life form their own autonomy, is that they may perhaps forsake the maker, and that is exactly what we do.
This is a problem, think about all of the things we commit and also think about think about and also commit which are wrong, this is often known as transgression in the Holy Bible, they outright offend Holy God's character and sanctity, and again, you could say violating the unchanging Laws of the very universe - the structured universe He put together. These bad things have disconnected us from God.

'The heart is deceitful above all things, And it is exceeding weak--who can know it?' (Jeremiah 17:9)

'Who can discern his errors? Clear thou me from hidden faults .' (Psalm 19:12)

Think of it like this loathsome contrast. A new clean and sterile wipe removed from a new sealed pack to sterilize your bad bleeding wound, compare that with a used, unsterilized wipe having been sat and walked on for a week off the doctor's area floor or seating. Ask yourself how would you feel? Woh, revolting. Well, that is merely a touch of how God Most High is repulsed by our behaviour that is wrong, which also means the so-called minor matters we do wrong and sometimes bad attitudes, that dishonor His purity, and breaks the indestructible laws of the whole universe.
And that includes the wrong things we regard as minor, such as: using God's Name flippantly, disliking somebody, conceit, not forgiving somebody that offended us and ignoring God our Maker, and a myriad of other things.

Bad Stuff Needs To Be Paid In Full And The God Of Heaven Is The Debt Collector

Our sins are debts to God:
'and forgive us our debts, as we have also forgiven our debtors.' (Matthew 6:12)

Each one of these things are a violation of the sublime pureness, sinlessness and power of God. Every time we behave in such ways, it is giving God a kick in the head. In the Scriptures, contained in His Law, The Lord declares that it is bad to thieve, have you at some time, stolen something in your life? The Lord declares don't covet things that belong to others. Have you at any time had a strong desire to possess a person's lifestyle, house, wife or belongings? The Lord pronounces that we give honor to our mother and father. Have you ever talked back to your father? The Lord declares not to speak His Name in vain or frivolously. Have you ever desecrated His Holy Name?

God Most High has all knowledge. And, every wrong MUST be paid in full. A point in time is coming when every wrong WILL be punished, or you could say, clear the account to heal and be one with the changeless laws of the very universe. Or alternatively, the Scriptures describes it; to eliminate the rage of Holy God. This may come as a shocker to nearly everybody, due to the fact they are told that The Creator God loves everyone boundlessly, that they have come to believe that Almighty God can never be wrathful with a person due to some bad things they did.

Over and over I see people, blind to these basics, contending ?How is it that a loving God be like that? What is this additional rule on holiness??

To which I answer, "Without a doubt, the Holy God actually does love the world, except people are not able to hold the love facet of Almighty God and overlook the righteousness facet. It really is unachievable. It is unmistakably declared in the Bible, and people are not usually told of this key fact. Sadly, these days people just convey the pleasant things, not the whole uncomfortable truth.
We will not understand the Eternal God by with our earthly objectives, expectations and practices. God Most High absolutely is ?from a different place and time? and He explains to us just who, He really is and the ways He operates in the Bible. Requiring Him to follow our system, just gives us a pointless hope in something that is not genuine and is going to end one day soon.
Human beings wrongly find fault with Sovereign God for the tragedies in life, but it is far from God?s inadequacy. He produced everything superbly, The first man ruined everything and we continue to screw up. They offend Holy God's character and sanctity; the 'established laws and regulations of the whole universe.' God is unable to simply come in and make everything nice for us. The directives or process of things that Sovereign God started, needs to come to it's natural end.
Every one of our sin debts have to be paid for.

However, God supplied a means for our bad stuff to be paid in full, to meet the legal demands of God's unshakable Law, the permanent law of the whole universe. And that magnificent means, was the nailing to a cross, dying, burial and the raising back to life of His Son, Christ. And, this magnificent deed was carried out openly in front of the audience of all creation in the universe ? humans, angels and the fallen angels.
Jesus was the pure sacrificial payment that is able to pay the price your bad stuff; behavior, attitudes and thoughts. No other means could pay for all of our evil.
The Bible says:

'for all have sinned (done bad things), and come short of the glory of God,' (Romans 3:23)
Simply living 'a really good' life and doing 'good' things won't be able to spare anyone from the terrible penalty of the evil behavior, attitudes and thoughts, just the Lord Jesus is able to. If the only thing we do during life is to be the perfect woman or man and even go to church, that cannot spare anybody and will not enable anyone to experience heaven. This means, going away to hell, otherwise known as unceasing distress:

'For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is everlasting life in Christ Jesus our Lord.' (Romans 6:23)

No, it is not being good that saves us, you have to apologise for all of the bad things you have done, and be a servant of Almighty God. I shall explain this more shortly.

This is the reason I find that going to funeral services of one who is not a follower of Jesus Christ genuinely stresses me. Now this is also why my main aim in this life is sharing with people about what God Most High is really like. To inform those who do not go to church, and more than that, to others who do go to church but still haven't properly grasped what it was really about. The false impression of God is widespread, and is either because the preaching they heard was unclear or it was compromised by the faulty traditions of the current philosophical system, from pastors relentlessly seeking to cause the Eternal, immutable Almighty God to look as though He is just a lovable, huggable grandpa sort of god, without His perfect righteousness and the judging of evil things. That is undoubtedly a pretend god a creation of their own fantasy.
Repeatedly I hear atheists asking ?How can God be like this, I thought He loves us?? Yes, but you will never eliminate Almighty God's scary justice, when His Bible states far, far more as regards His piety and scary justice, than His great love.
It is impossible to know the Creator God with our perspectives and behaviour. God Most High is absolutely is ?out of this world? and He declares to the human race who He really is and how He judges in the Scriptures. Wishing he might conform to human rules, just gives us a hazardously misleading view of The God of Heaven.
Now consider, there's no means to trick God into thinking you truly belong to Him if you do not really mean it. God knows every one of one's thoughts.

However, Surrender To God And The Human Race Does Not Need To Repay This Deficit

There is only one way to have these trespasses forgiven and to stay clear of hell, is to recognise how bad we truly are in front of a Sinless God, and also to tell God that we are really sorry for the things we did wrong. And after that to wholly give up one's life to Him, and be subject to His rule as boss for the rest of our life. This, is the right blueprint of this life on the planet He made for His enjoyment:

'Then He said to them all, ?If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.' (Luke 9:23)

Jesus Christ in no way said ?Simply live your life as a good or pleasant person, undertake various good deeds for other people, and you will not be sent to hell .?
Actually, this is what Jesus Christ declared as regards when you're pardoned of your transgression:

'And to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others, He also spoke this parable:
Two men went up to the temple to pray; the one a pharisee and the other a publican. The Pharisee having stood, was praying toward himself thus: 'God, I thank You that I am not like the rest of the men--swindlers, unrighteous, adulterers--or even like this tax collector. I fast twice of the Sabbath; I pay tithes of all I possess. And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat himself on the chest, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, a sinner. '
I tell you, this man went to his house justified rather than the other one; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.?' (Luke 18:9-14)

The Teacher of the law in this story is not committing the seemingly ?really bad' evil like child abuse, as we like to say, nevertheless he was not forgiven by God.
Yet, the taxman actually did do ?really bad' wrong things but was pardoned by Holy God, for the reason that he truly ashamed over his sin.
It is a humbling step to admit we are and have been, sinful and to surrender our lives utterly to God. Yet without it we would not be redeemed from our transgressions, we have to come to Almighty God humble and reliant on Him. Jesus said :

'And having summoned a child, He set it in their midst. and said, Verily I say to you, Unless ye are converted and become as little children, ye will not at all enter into the kingdom of the heavens.' (Matthew 18:2-3)

One's Own Shortfall Will Not Be Paid Out By Being An Especially Moral Person

'God saved you through faith as an act of kindness. You had nothing to do with it. Being saved is a gift from God.' (Ephesians 2:8)

Surrender To God And Allow The Lord Jesus To Pay Out Your Own Shortfall Or Not??

'Then He said to them all, ?If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.' (Luke 9:23)

And ?Take up one's cross each day? indicates, we need to be living in a self-sacrificing fashion daily for His Purpose.
The Bible also says:

'I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. (Romans 12:1)

'However sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts; always ready with a defense to everyone asking you a word concerning the hope in you; yet with meekness and fear.' (1Peter 3:15)

To sum up: Jesus Christ gets to be your supervisor. For keeps. And as the Bible commands, we live for God, learning the Scriptures, praying day by day, sharing with others about the Creator God, and helping some others as we are lead to. The Holy God, is our quest and reason for the whole of our existence.
