Have you ever read or heard something out of the proper context, and so you arrived at the wrong conclusion? Many people do that with the Gospel, as they don’t really understand its context. That can lead to real problems. Today on Focal Point, Pastor Mike Fabarez returns to his series on the Gospel, and continues to point us to the character of God. We saw last time that God is our creator and so we are accountable to Him. Now we must acknowledge that God is holy and requires holiness of us. Not only that, He’s just and loving too. That’s the important prelude to the Gospel that we’ve got to come to grips with, even before we talk about the Gospel.
Do you ever feel like you are waiting forever for God to answer your prayers? Do you ever wonder how long you have to wait for his promises to be fulfilled? You are not alone. Even the most godly men in the Bible had to wait and even wondered if a promise would come to pass.
It is during these times that God does his greatest work in us. Learn about God's promises, why we can trust them and how they will always come to pass...always.
