The Real God - Seeking God, Part 1

Living on the Edge
About this episode

What comes to mind when you think about God? Who do you imagine Him to be? Your answers to these questions are the most important thing about you. Chip explores how our perception of God radically alters our view of reality.

The importance of this study:

  • “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” -A.W. Tozer, Knowledge of the Holy
  • “We tend, by a secret law of the soul, to move toward our mental image of God.” -A.W. Tozer, Knowledge of the Holy

How to see the real God, with 20/20 vision:

Three facts to consider:

  1. God is not LIKE YOU! -Isaiah 40:25-28, Romans 11:33-36
  2. Left to ourselves, we tend to REDUCE God to MANAGEABLE TERMS! -Romans 1:21-23, Exodus 32:1-6
  3. God can only be known as He REVEALS HIMSELF to us! Through:
  • NATURE -Psalm 19:1-2, Romans 1:19-20
  • HIS WORD -John 1:1-4, 5:37-40
  • JESUS, His SON -John 1:14-18, Hebrews 1:1-3

One question for you:

  • What must I do to see the real God and He really is?

Answer:

  • SEEK HIM -Jeremiah 29:11-14a

How?

  • Proverbs 2:1-5
