Bible Question:
in your opinion, why was is necessary for God to remind the people that a relationship with Him is a personal responsibiblity? |
Bible Answer: Hi CMOORE, to answer your question I would like to say first of all that there are no grand children in God’s family, all those that are of God’s family are as a result of a direct birth. We become His children one at a time as a result of His Word, the incorruptible seed. 1 Peter 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. It may be accomplished in a crowed but it is the personal work of the Holy Spirit in each individual that causes the life of the new creature in Christ. I read your personal profile and I want to say my heart goes out to you. We don’t have all of the answers but I can tell you this much, God’s plan is perfect and there is a time coming when we will understand it all. Ephes. 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. The Lord has given me a gift to put together Biblical poetry and there is one that I would like to share with you. I’m not sure how the format will come out on the forum but you will get the jest of it, it’s called a voice from beyond. A Voice From Beyond I've passed into a better place of which there is no pain. So loved one keep your grieving short, your loss has been my gain. My state is far much better then the one that you behold. It's the hope that I've been looking for in the days when I’d grow old Though grief may oft consume you with thoughts about our past, Life must go, so please be strong, this grieving will not last. This place is awe inspiring, with much array to view. I've been so overwhelmed with it, I've hardly thought of you. My first day on location I was anything but bored, My first known recollection, I was looking at the Lord. The colors are fantastic, beyond your wildest dreams. Ensuing from His throne on high, an emerald rainbow streams. Enough about my bless for now, the problem's you're forlorn, And how to rectify the day, from which our love was torn. The secret to life’s happiness is not all that absurd. It’s found with-in the Mighty Script of God’s Eternal Word. So keep yourself in hope I ask, make the Bible your main quest, And the Lord will surely comfort you, and put your heart at rest. Make sure my love of which you trust, in abundance of profession. It must be Jesus, not the church, to support your strong confession. Finally love with much ado, use not your loss for scorning. Weeping may endure the night, but joy cometh in the morning. Have a nice day, CDBJ |
