Message Title: God is Good
Speaker: Pastor Scott
Date: 5/22/22
Points:
-Galatians 2:20
-Matthew 13:18-23
If our understanding of God is anchored in biblical truth, our circumstances pose no threat to our faith in Him.
There are 2 primary ways we assess God's character:
-
Live life and allow my circumstances to inform my view of God and His goodness and faithfulness to me. (Conclusion)
-
Start with the foundational presupposition that God is good, as His Word reveals, and then pass my circumstances through that filter, looking to interpret life in that light. (Foundation)
-Psalm 100:1-5
God's goodness is a foundational truth, not a hypothesis awaiting further testing.
The goodness of God:
Inspires our devotion
Increases our love
Invites us to know Him
-Romans 2:4
