Our AWESOME Privilege

posted in: abundant life | 0
     We Christians have an AWESOME privilege to know and worship the Triune God.
.
“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1 NIV).
“Jesus replied, “My Father constantly does good, and I’m following his example.” ( John 5:17, 6:44 LAB)
“We are telling you about what we ourselves have actually seen and heard, so that
you may share the fellowship and the joys we have with the Father and with Jesus Christ his son. (I John 1:3 LAB
Jesus said, “I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can snatch them out of my hand.
My Father who has given them to me is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand.
I and the Father are one. ( John 10:28-30 NIV)
.
Our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. (1 John 1:3b NIV).
“So overflowing is his kindness toward us that he took away all our sins through the blood of his Son, by whom we are saved;
and he has showered down upon us the richness of his grace—for how well he understands us and
knows what is best for us at all times” (Ephesians 1:7 LAB).
“For he has rescued us out of the darkness and gloom of Satan’s kingdom and brought us into the Kingdom
of his dear Son, who bought our freedom with his blood and forgave us all our sins” (Col.1:13-14 LAB).
“Christ is the exact likeness of the unseen God” (Col. 1:15 LAB)
.
“But I will send you the Comforter—the Holy Spirit, the source of all truth…(Jn. 15:26 LAB.)
And when he comes, he will convict the world of guilt in regard to sin, and
righteousness and judgment. ” (John16:8 NIV).
The Holy Spirit has come upon you and you know the truth. (I John 2:20).
.
Here is a song that also emphasizes these truths:
Father, you are my maker. You knit my flesh to my bone.
There is no other besides you. Yours is the glory alone!
.
Jesus, you’re my redeemer. You paid the price for my sin,
and rescued me from captivity. Now you are living within.
.
Holy Spirit you fill me with pow’r and love that’s divine.
By you I know God is my Father. By you I know Jesus is mine.
.
Praise God the Father, praise Jesus the Son,
Praise the Holy Spirit, Three, yet ever One,
