Why Am I Here?

12/8/2013

 
​“Why am I here?” You are here because God created you to live on this earth and give glory to him (Acts 17:24-28; Colossians 3:17; 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, 10:31).

“Who is God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit?” These three are the Godhead (Acts 17:29; Romans 1:20; Col. 2:9). They are eternal and distinct (Genesis 1:12,26, 3:22, 11:7; Hebrews 9:14; John 1:1, 8:44, 17:5.24; Matthew 3:16-17, 28:19; Ephesians 4:4-6; 2 Cor. 13:14). They are one in purpose (John 6:38, 8:29, 10:30, 17:20-22). And yet all are God (1 Cor. 8:6; Malachi 2:10; Isaiah 44:8).

“What is the soul?” A person is two parts, the body and the inner, which is the soul (Gen. 2:7; Matt. 10:28).

“What happens at death?” At death the soul leaves the body and goes to await the Judgment (Gen. 35:18; Luke 8:54-55; Ecclesiastes 12:7; Luke 16:19-31; John 5:28-29).

“Why is there evil in the world?" There is evil in the world because men desire evil (Psalm 14:2-3; John 3:19-21; Job 24:14-17; Proverbs 4:14-17). God has given men a choice to choose right or wrong, and most pick wrong (Matt. 7:13-14; Ecclesiastes 7:29).

Hope to hear from you or see you at the services.
