1 | Why don't you know for sure? | Eccl 11:6 | keynam | 100056 | ||
One thing you must realize is that you are reading the Old Testament. I believe that He left us alone for so long because we were not following the laws that He handed down to Moses. Once Jesus came and died God sent us the Holy Spirit. We are living in a time of Grace and Mercy which was not available to those in the Old Testament days. I'm going to research more of the scriptures but wanted to answer this best to my knowledge as we just went over this in my bible school. To answer the second half of your question once Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit God gave us freedom to make or own choices. He wants us to choose Him but instead we turn away and do what we want. | ||||||
2 | Why don't you know for sure? | Eccl 11:6 | keynam | 100074 | ||
There are three scriptures that I can come up with to prove that God never left us alone He just sits and waits for us to ask for His help. The scriptures are as follows: "Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will. "But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. "Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows." (Matthew 10:29-31) "Look! Here I stand at the door and knock. If you hear me calling and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal as friends.: (Revelation 3:20) even in the old testament God didn't leave us alone it was always just a matter of us asking for his help. He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. (Psalms 91:15) I hope that these verses help in letting you know that God never leaves us alone. |

[I hope that these verses help in letting you know that God never leaves us alone] Oh but He does in sense that His presence ins't "felt" that brings warmth and confidence. It is at these times when, as Jesus did, one stands on the scriptural ground, fights the good fight of faith and shoews his/her allegiance to the Father. This is what Jesus did and we must also if we seek to become "sons brought into glory". Romans 8:19 (NASB-U) For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. ........not just a bunch saved people. Can you see the challenge here? |
