Discerning the Plight of Man - Ch 8: Moral Inability - Pt. 2 | The Impotence of Man's Mind and Heart

Through God’s gracious providence, the human race has gained great intellectual achievements in science, technology, medicine, and so forth. Nevertheless, fallen man’s knowledge of God is nothing more than a twisted maze of heresy and futile thinking. This ignorance is not the result of a “hidden God,” but of a “hiding man.” God has clearly revealed Himself to men through creation, His sovereign works in history, the Scriptures, and finally through His incarnate Son. Man, being spiritually dead and morally corrupt, has responded to this revelation by closing his eyes and covering his ears.

Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath. He became our rest when He did all the work necessary for our salvation.

"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
1 Corinthians 13:13 NIV
No matter how much knowledge and achievements we gain in this world (even as faithful Christians), only three things remain in the end: faith, hope and love. Above all our intentions and motivations, love is the greatest and love bears the most in our pursuit of glorifying God in this world.

GOD IS LOVE; LOVE DOES NOT ENVY.
In addition to the truth that God has authority and ownership over all the things that there are, He is also very eager and generous to bless us with everything that we need with everything that He has; manifesting this in the greatest Gift that we have today: Jesus Christ. That is the heart of God, and we are called to be with one heart with Him.
