As of 2008, there are over 400 Christian denominations in the United States alone, and thousands around the world. Are they ALL right?

Any question that we have concerning God can be answered by God's word. John 1:1 says “in the beginning was the Word, and the word was with God, and the Word was God.” The Word of God, the Bible, and God himself are one in the same. The question of God's one true church cannot be answered with opinion, but rather directly from the Bible.

What is God’s view on dating? Print E-mail

What is God’s view on dating? The answer to this question can be found at the beginning of the Bible. Genesis 2:24 reads, “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife.” This passage makes it clear that a man and a woman were made to be joined as one. The goal of dating should ultimately be the search for a long-term relationship that will lead to marriage.

Why Are We Here? Print E-mail

Why are we here? To answer this we first have to answer the question of creation. Why did God create people in the first place? What was his purpose?

God created us for his pleasure and glory. We are told this in Revelations 4:11 and Isaiah 43:7. God delights in us. He wants companionship. He created us with a soul, and mind to choose to live for him. This was instated at creation when the choice was put before Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. They were told that they could partake of anything in the garden except the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

If man was not to have a choice, but were predestined to heaven or hell, why did God even place the tree there?

“And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul, neither said any of them that ought of the thing which he possessed was his own, but they had all things common.”


Being a part of God’s church does not mean that you attend a service or meet at a church building. God’s church is not a building with four walls and a sign outside, nor is it a social event. God’s church is a body of people who are of one heart and one soul with the same spirit, believing that Jesus’ death on the cross made it possible for you and I to live with victory over sin every day.

There are saints of many ages, races, and walks of life that have all come to know God and are now members of his body, the Church of God. Take the time and listen to the testimony of three such people who came to know God in different ways but who have all come to adopt their own personal belief in God and his goodness.

Hope

HOPE

Rom. 15:4

Hope is incredibly important in our walk with God. Our ultimate hope is heaven. The devil's goal is to distract us from it. If we're in a dark place, if we're discouraged, we can draw strength from our hope. Losing it means destruction.

When we're faced with battles, we can grasp hope through reading scriptures and praying. Everyone goes through hard times. If we lose hope during those times, the Devil can easily take advantage of us.

II Cor. 4:6,7

Our treasure is our hope, and we are the earthen vessel.

8-9

Sometimes we're caught in very tight situations, just as the Israelites were at the Red Sea. They had nowhere to turn - there were impassable mountains on either side, an ocean in front, and the enemy behind. God stepped in and, in His great power, delivered them in a way they would never have thought possible. When we find ourselves faced with nothing but unpleasant alternatives, we need not despair. God didn't bring us out to be destroyed by the enemy.

I Cor. 10:13

Temptation can be anything that you are drawn to that will weaken your experience with God. Temptation can come in the form of persecution. God can give us victory over every temptation - unless we choose to give in to it, God will give us strength to overcome. He will not forsake us or allow us to be defeated.

Heb.11:1, 25

We can have hope in eternal things, even though we can't see them. In these scriptures, Moses had hope greater than the immediate. We have to get to the point where what we have is greater than the temptation.

Rom. 8:37-39

When we're unsure of what direction to take, God's light will shine through and guide us. Satan will try to get you to believe that God will endorse your will. If we force God to endorse what we want, we risk losing our hope.

How do we know something is the will of God? You will have a clearness - you will know beyond a shadow of a doubt. If there's hesitation there, it's probably not the will of God.

Prov. 14:12

If what you're wanting to do is causing you to try to convince God it's okay, that's a sign that the devil is the one putting the idea in your mind.

Exercise and practice all the things you already know. God has given us hope to carry us through, and everything will work out just as He's planned.
