Holy Scriptures
February 22, 2014
Without God’s self-revelation through the Holy Scriptures we call the Bible, our understanding of God from the “natural” world would be very limited. We worship a self-revealing God who wants to be known, and it is in the timeless literature of the Holy Bible that we come to know about God. From Genesis 1 to […]

Trinity
March 1, 2014
Are we monotheistic, which means we believe in one God, or are we polytheistic meaning we believe in more than one God? This is not the simplest concept but a very important one. We are monotheists who believe in a Godhead, all one God in a unity of three co-eternal Persons. We will look at […]

God the Father

Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are just ways of helping us see relationships. Where the Bible speaks of the Father, what are the traits and characteristics? How does the imagery of “father” assist or get in the way of our understanding? God identifies and defines himself as love. How is that demonstrated in the stories […]

God the Holy Spirit
March 22, 2014
This is the primary agent of the trinity for us right now. When Jesus went back to heaven, he promised the coming of the Holy Spirit. When we grasp all that the Holy Spirit does for us, to us, and through us, we stand in awe. How can the Spirit be trusted? How do we […]

Creation
April 26, 2014
God is Creator of all things, and has revealed in Scripture the authentic account of His creative activity. In six days the Lord made “the heaven and the Earth” and all living things upon the Earth, and rested on the seventh day of that first week. Thus He established the Sabbath as a perpetual memorial […]

Nature of Humanity
May 3, 2014
Man and woman were made in the image of God with individuality, the power and freedom to think and to do. Though created free beings, each is an indivisible unity of body, mind and spirit, dependent upon God for life and breath and all else. When our first parents disobeyed God, they denied their dependence […]
