Hey guys, i read something from the book "Knowing the Father's Heart" by Dr. David Eckman. It's some good stuff.
Something interesting i read:
" Churches often have a nebulous figure called God the Father -- and it appears He has nothing to do. The Son does it all. The Father is among the jobless, a distant unemployed figure. This is not what the bible teaches, but it's often how churches present Him.
Sometimes the Father is represented as a malevolent figure. He is angry at humanity over its sin, but the Son has been able to appease His outrage by dying a cruel death. The Father ends up appearing to be threatening and dangerous, as if the Son and the Spirit have to restrain Him from going on a binge of destruction. But whether He is completely nebulous or dangerously angry, He is not involved. And this view creates a very monumental problem."
some food for the thought. Do we view God the Father in this way? He was the one who sent Jesus to die for us, so that the veil would be torn and would could indulge in a deeper relationship with our Father in heaven.
I know some of us are burned out. Dont give up the race and continue to strive for God's glory. My dear brothers and sisters, you are not alone in this.
in His love,
Marcus Jairus.
