The Ambiguous Know

In the world you will have tribulation, but take heart I have overcome the world. John 16:33

You are not you when you are hungry

You are not you when you are offended <3

Matthew 1:1-18

God created marriage. The world did not.

But yet, we choose worldly methods to achieve something God created

Why is that? 

Why would I ever make 1 thing or 1 person My Life?

Colossians 3:1-5

If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God set your mind on things above not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory. 

Put to death therefore what is earthly in you”

Is it actually possible to live COMPLETELY free from insecurity?

OUR CITIZENSHIP IS IN HEAVEN!!!!

Philippians 3:18 For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ. 19 Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things. 20 But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.

As a Christian- as a followers of Jesus we still have free will. And people get that misunderstood. We could deny Jesus at any point, this is fully our decision. We could sin, We could lie, and yeah God would still love us, that is His character, however, we would be missing out on God’s best for our lives. We choose to not have the identity of being a sinner because we believe that God’s best for our lives does not include sin.

How much IS it our responsibility when it comes to what we believe about our identity in being born again-children of God?

Ephesians 4:20

“But that is not the way you learned Christ! Assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. Therefore having put away falsehood let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another”

So many people questioning God’s goodness and faithfulness and saying that his consequences are cruel and the exact same God sacrificed Himself for all of humankind.

And with this freedom, we have been given. This debt paid for all of us. No favorites, everyone is included.

we try to find our identity in other things besides the one who created us AND sacrificed himself for us, why?

We could spend a lifetime trying to figure out our purpose, but what if there is a simple answer in the Word of God? Let's find out!

1 Corinthians 10:31

So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

Psalm 57:2

I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me.
