The Love of God
God is the creator of all life and he is the highest of all powers, he embodies all ‘persons’ (The Father, The Son, and The Spirit). Although we cannot be as him, we should try to follow his guidance. In this world, it is easy to get wrapped in earthly things. We are humans, and many of times we fail by trying to hold a certain status, gain certain materialistic possessions, and cause great emotional/physical harm to one another. In my beliefs, that is not the way one should live. We should shed love, just how God gave us his everlasting love, even when Adam and Eve disobeyed him. God did not look to regain power over them by being vengeful of any sort, instead he sought after Adam to restore the relationship. At times, we begin to lose sight of the relationship with God, we start becoming selfish and

We need to place our trust and love solely into him, and our family, partnerships, and friendships will then fall into order. We should not value what we see in shopping centers, and we should never idealize who we see on the television. Every growing day, makes it harder to stand true to these standards of living. As I have read in an article, “it is our privilege and responsibility to invite others, who are not yet believers, to faith in Christ and service to him.” We need to do better at expanding the words to others. We were created to live in a loving communion with God, and one another. In my opinion, we should value praying and talking with God each day. We may start to find ourselves losing sight of God and his pure love, which results in us lingering in places we should not. guidance he gives us, God would never lead us down a path of sin. So, when we find ourselves distancing from, him, we should recollect many reasons and passages as to why we should not. As in Psalm 18:2, “The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my

    Interestingly both Williams and Tolstoy passionately attest that we can trust God without discerning whether God is good. Although Tolstoy does not say so directly, he apparently assumes that God is good when a pilgrim in his story says “If God willed that your son should die and you should live, it must be best so”(85). This explanation given by the pilgrim is accepted by Martin without further examination. Similarly Williams reasons through our trust in God being secure because God does not need anything and at the end of his reasoning assumes God’s goodness by the idea that God had nothing to gain from our creation and therefore must have done it out of love.…

    Good God And Evil Essay

    • 9 Pages

    INTRODUCT ION The question of the existence of a good God and evil is by far the most important problem for philosophical, religious, and moral consideration. These two contradicting arguments have been postulated by many philosophers like Richard Dawkins, William Rowe…etc. Though the intrinsic presence of suffering is the most obvious feature that determines the character of the existence or non-existence of God, it is an empirical fact, and the truth or falsity of these facts can only be established by observations and experiments relating to the real world. It would seem that the best arguments against the nonexistence of God is based on the logical argument of evil in the world and the attributes of an all- powerful, all knowing and all good God.…

    The Divine command theory is a meta - ethical theory which states that an action is obligatory if and only if, it is commanded by God. In this essay, I will examine whether any form of divine command theory is defensible. In defence, I shall begin by looking at the modified theory as proposed by Robert Adams. Secondly, I will attempt to assess objections from Plato, Austin and Wainwright; before proceeding to evaluate whether these objections are successful in demeaning this theory. Let us take the modified version of the divine command theory , as proposed by Robert Adams (1987); in defence of the original theory.…

    Jesus is, without a doubt, the true son of God the Father. In addition, there is significant evidence to support that He is God Man. This is backed up by the Trilemma Argument along with the John’s Gospel in the New Testament, the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecies. Primarily, the Trilemma argues that Jesus did claim to be divine. If Jesus was not divine, he cannot be a good man because that would make Him either a liar or lunatic.…

    The one verse I will forever live by is Psalm 143:8, “Let the morning bring the word of Your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in You. Show me the way I should go, for to You I entrust my life”. This verse tells me that I do not need to fear about singing in front people, or fear befriending people, or fear leading others, or fear anything in this world because the moment I gave my heart to God, He continually held onto it with such a delicacy. He knows that I trust and have faith in Him, and likewise, I know He trusts and has faith in me. Many people do not think about God having faith and trust in them, but He does.…
