God Centered Life

Some of those who say they have never seen God have not actually been looking. The surest way not to find is not to seek at all. Even if you are not a Christian, we all need to come to this study with an open mind and consider that these things might indeed be true.

John 14:22-31

Sometimes when we're going through a difficult time, we wonder how we can know that the things we believe in because we are following Christ are all true. The way to find the truth is to ask questions. We as Christians have nothing to hide. We do have the truth, and we can examine it with all the questions we have, and it will survive.

John 14:8-21

Sixty-six percent of Americans think that belief in many different religions will get you into heaven. The more we come across people of other faiths and the more globalized our world is, the more we begin to think that truth is relative. This makes it harder for people to believe that Jesus is the only way to God.

When we think about Christian failure, we need to remember that the enemy is on the prowl. But these lessons teach us to fight the good fight, to resist the devil and he will flee from us.

Why would someone go out of his or her way to visit a sick person or mentor someone they don't know? We need to turn this on its head and instead of asking, "What's the return on my investment?" ask "How am I going to invest for God's glory and the good of others?" That is the heart of the Christian life.

Jesus said, "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another." What is new about this? Surely we've heard this before! Even the Beatles say, "All you need is love."

Jesus did not die for the innocent victim. Here John says, "And it was night." You will never understand or appreciate the cross unless you grasp the full depth of the darkness of your night.
