To Ponder God and the Trinity
I stand amazed when I ponder from my weak mind a power so immense that it encompasses the universe. A power beyond all understanding radiating from God’s domain of Heaven. A power
so Holy that the Jewish Rabbis would not say his name except in rituals. A power without end yet a power with endless love for his creation, mankind. A power so vast that he knew us before we were born and knows us by name. a power defying logic and a Trinity that transcends all boundaries of imagination yet so personable that God begot his Son, though that Son, (John 1:1-3) was with God in the beginning and was God who stepped out of the God Head to become flesh and born of a woman. A power in full control of world events as evidenced when Jesus calmed the wind as in Mathew 8:23.
Then another essence of God, the Holy Spirit, who can live in man and the world at the same time,
and always waiting for the new believer to come forth and plead the acceptance of Jesus Christ in churches and lives all over the world in the same moment in time. Jesus, the Son who was willing to lay down his glory for his creation.
If not for Jesus, my thoughts alone would send me to hell. Hell is mentioned in the Bible more than Heaven.
God has no peers and is so Holy that he defined sin and set it apart so that believers and nonbelievers alike understand it. Sin cannot enter the presence of God.
Jesus is the only way, and it is through his blood and resurrection to attain salvation and not works, “Lest we boast.” Your goodness will not do it for you.
“I am the way, the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father except through me.” All other supposed ways are false gods and rotting in their graves and others mere manmade stone images leading the way to doom.
The God of the Christians is personable and when you accept Jesus as your Savior you will know he is real, for you will be aware of his Spirit. If you want to experience God, you can, just ask him to reveal himself to you and save you and take him at his word. You don’t have to clean yourself, he will clean you. You will still sin but you will strive not to.
I ponder these things and know that I’m not worthy of the promise, but I don’t have to understand, Just believe and accept the gift of Grace by faith and nothing.
