1 Peter: God's Big Plan

The present worldview today is so small, meaningless and hopeless. A world with no God, no eternity, no accountability...only things, pleasure, here and now. How this contrasts with God's huge plan of salvation...planned before the world began and brought about in Jesus. What a call for faith and hope!!! Do you have lots of faith and genuine excitement (hope) about how God's plan is working out?

Hosea: Listening and Learning from Hosea

Thousands of years ago God had dealings with a rebellious nation called Israel (the northern tribes). He loved them, warned them, spoke to them, and eventually judged them. He ordained that His message to them was written down and preserved for all ages in His Bible. Today we read that message. Why did God want us to read and ponder this book? What is the point God wants us to get? How does this speak to us today? These are the questions we will seek to answer in our study of the Old Testament prophet Hosea.

1 Peter: Father -- Judge???

Peter tells us we are to love God as our Father and fear Him as our Judge. How does that work? Why does the Bible say we will be judged by our deeds and yet salvation is by grace and not of works? How does that work? What is the nature of Judgment Day especially how are Christians supposed to view it? Are we ready?

James 3:1

    The consideration of God as Judge is not improper for those who can truly call Him Father. Holy confidence in God as a Father, and an awful fear of Him as a Judge, are very consistent; to regard God as a Judge is a singular means to endear Him to us as a Father. Matthew Henry

  • How are we supposed to relate to God when He is both our Father and our Judge?
  • What does it mean to me that He is my Father?
  • What does it mean that He is my Judge?
  • What will take place on Judgement Day?
  • How can I best be prepared?
  • Should I warn others?
  • How without not sounding like a fool?
