Here are the notes for the Bible Study "Never Doubt"
Chris
Never Doubt
God is Love – He loves Us personally, individually. God’s glory is His goodness, His grace.
God loves us and wants to shower us with His love for all eternity. If you have been saved, you are now the object of His eternal favour.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. (NKJV)
It all comes by belief and belief alone. The actions will follow the belief, to maximize the effect of our beliefs (taking advantage of the Zellers flyer!).
The action follows the belief, the belief based on the relationship (know the owner of Zellers). This is called walking by faith.
It is the GOODNESS of God that brings man to repentance.
Romans 2:4 Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? (NKJV)
If I know God is good, then doing it God’s way will result in God’s results.
The lights have to come on about this! We must and must know that God is
1. Is Love
2. Loves Us
3. Showers us with infinite grace and mercy
Because of Jesus.
John 10:10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. (NKJV)
Jesus came to give us abundant life, not a mean, nasty one. He did these that you can have abundance for EVERY good work.
2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work. (NKJV)
Not that things are always going good for you, but that God is always good to you. We need to walk by faith, for by unbelief the relationship was lost.
If we can’t find where Zellers is or forget what the flyer said, we won’t benefit for it either, like the second kind of soil – persecution for the Word’s sake.
Matthew 13:20 But he who received the seed on stony places, this is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy; 21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures only for a while. For when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles. (NKJV)
The Word must take root. We must know this Word of God’s love.
Ephesians 3:19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. (NKJV)
