THE LIVING GOD’S – WORLD

Spread the love

What kind of a #world #view do you have?  Has it changed over the years?  I know my opinions fluctuated with #wars, #terrorists, #dictators, and threats of mass #destruction.   I remember a Coke commercial, “I’d love to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony!”  (that was many years ago)  Long before that jingle, I was singing, “Jesus loves all the children of the world – – they are precious in His sight”  You see I still hold to the same truth I have found in the Word of God – let’s start at the very beginning (a very good place to start)  Gen. 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth”  Ps.24:1 “The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; THE WORLD AND THEY THAT DWELL THEREIN.”  Is.54:5 “THE GOD OF THE WHOLE EARTH SHALL HE BE CALLED”  Col.1:16 “by Him all things were created, both in heaven and earth, visible and invisible whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities – all things have been created by Him and for Him    Our world was created and is sustained by the Word of God; yet He gives us insight to our present situation.  Want to know?  1John 4:1,2 “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God; because many false teachers have gone out into the world.  By this you know the Spirit of God:  every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God: for every spirit that does not confess Jesus…is an antichrist.  2:2″Jesus Christ is the propitiation for our sins and not ours only, but also for those of the whole world.”  We may be perplexed daily with all the wars and rumors of wars and turmoil in our personal lives.   How do we respond?  We can overcome…”Whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world –our faith  and who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.” 1John 5:4,5
