The Gospel The Gospel is that we aresaved – FROM GOD » BY GOD – FOR GOD TO KNOWGOD

Understand that... God is not a means to an end – He IS the Means & the End God is not a means to an end – He IS the Means & the End When we worship idols, we are in part doing what we are supposed to be doing, only we are not doing it the way & to Whom we are supposed to be doing it When we worship idols, we are in part doing what we are supposed to be doing, only we are not doing it the way & to Whom we are supposed to be doing it God is NOT a Holy God; a Just God; a Loving God... He IS Holiness – He IS Justice – He IS Love God is NOT a Holy God; a Just God; a Loving God... He IS Holiness – He IS Justice – He IS Love

GOD IS GOD IS THE SOURCE THE SUBSTANCE THE SATISFACTION

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF MAN? why am I here? what am I supposed to do? who am I? should I go? should I stay? what should I do? who should I be with? what is the cost? will I suffer? why am I suffering? when will I stop suffering? why don’t others suffer the way I do? am I my own? why should I care? can I really deny myself? what is so bad about getting whatever I want? what do I want? what is the purpose? What is the end of it all?

Be Wise The Big Picture – Be Wise The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom and the Knowledge of the Holy One is understanding (Proverbs 9:10) Fear God and keep His commandments (Ecclesiastes 12:13) Seek first the Kingdom and all else will be added (Matt. 6:33) Seek first the Kingdom and all else will be added (Matt. 6:33) Rejoice in the LORD always (Phil. 4:4) Rejoice in the LORD always (Phil. 4:4) “If you don’t know God, you can’t know anything properly” “If you don’t know God, you can’t know anything properly”
