The document discusses how God has revealed himself to humanity through creation. It argues that since the beginning, God's invisible attributes like eternal power and divine nature have been clearly visible in the things he has made. Therefore, people have always known about God but some chose not to acknowledge him, honor him, or give him thanks. This led their thinking to become futile and their hearts to be darkened, to the point of foolishly worshipping created things instead of the Creator. The document encourages remembering God through studying scripture and nature, honoring him with praise and gifts, and regularly thanking him.

This is the 18th teaching in our series “Growing Deep in the Gospel” and is the second one dealing with defending the gospel. In this study we answered the question “Why Do People Refuse to Believe in God?”. To start we looked at Bible verses that showed us why people should believe in God and why people don’t. Then we looked at quotes from two books that showed us why people don’t believe from different perspectives and we finished by looking how we could help people to find God.

This presentation looks into what I shall call the striking physicality of John's description of heaven, our spiritual and eternal abode. No puffy clouds and wispy-thin vistas here. Solid cities, massive gates and very solid-sounding streets dot the heaven-scape!
This is a study of Jesus being the basis for our election. Before the foundation of the world God chose us in Christ to be holy and blameless in His presence, in love.
Where do I come from? Who am I? and Where am I going? Those are fundamental questions that everyone should ask themselves, and honestly try to answer in order to live a plentiful life devoid of fear and doubt. The Urantia Book teachings give us abundant information to answer those questions, presenting us a complete frame of reference extending from the material to the spiritual, in order to get a clear direction going inward toward the Creator or all things and beings, our Heavenly Father. This knowledge of truth guided by wisdom can immensely help us in order to avoid the missteps of evolutionary experience.
One of the great stumbling blocks to evangelism and faith is the doctrine of predestination. Calvin was the most vociferous advocate of it, and he built it around his belief in total depravity. But was he right. In this talk, Tony explains where Calvin went wrong because his frame was limited. Tony turns to Ephesians 1 and builds much grander picture of what predestination means.
If the traditional evangelical gospel does not work for the postmodern world, what is the alternative? This is the question that Tony explores on this talk. His answer is to shift our framing of the argument from sin to creation. This does not deny sin, but it starts with a far bigger picture of the issues and one that is much more relevant to the hearts and minds of the post-modern generation.

On the Incarnation of the Word
-Athanasius
Chapter 1
Creation and the Fall
(1) In our former book11i.e. the Contra Gentes. we dealt fully enough with a few of the chief points about the heathen worship of idols, and how those false fears originally arose. We also, by God's grace, briefly indicated that the Word of the Father is Himself divine, that all things that are owe their being to His will and power, and that it is through Him that the Father gives order to creation, by Him that all things are moved, and through Him that they receive their being. Now, Macarius, true lover of Christ, we must take a step further in the faith of our holy religion, and consider also the Word's becoming Man and His divine Appearing in our midst. That mystery the Jews traduce, the Greeks deride, but we adore; and your own love and devotion to the Word also will be the greater, because in His Manhood He seems so little worth. For it is a fact that the more unbelievers pour scorn on Him, so much the more does He make His Godhead evident. The things which they, as men, rule out as impossible, He plainly shows to be possible; that which they deride as unfitting, His goodness makes most fit; and things which these wiseacres laugh at as "human" He by His inherent might declares divine. Thus by what seems His utter poverty and weakness on the cross He overturns the pomp and parade of idols, and quietly and hiddenly wins over the mockers and unbelievers to recognize Him as God.
Now in dealing with these matters it is necessary first to recall what has already been said. You must understand why it is that the Word of the Father, so great and so high, has been made manifest in bodily form. He has not assumed a body as proper to His own nature, far from it, for as the Word He is without body. He has been manifested in a human body for this reason only, out of the love and goodness of His Father, for the salvation of us men. We will begin, then, with the creation of the world and with God its Maker, for the first fact that you must grasp is this: the renewal of creation has been wrought by the Self-same Word Who made it in the beginning. There is thus no inconsistency between creation and salvation for the One Father has employed the same Agent for both works, effecting the salvation of the world through the same Word Who made it in the beginning.
(2) In regard to the making of the universe and the creation of all things there have been various opinions, and each person has propounded the theory that suited his own taste. For instance, some say that all things are self-originated and, so to speak, haphazard. The Epicureans are among these; they deny that there is any Mind behind the universe at all. This view is contrary to all the facts of experience, their own existence included. For if all things had come into being in this automatic fashion, instead of being the outcome of Mind, though they existed, they woul ...

the most vast work transmitted to humanity through Jakob Lorber; it presents a history narrated by Jesus Christ Himself, describing Lord’s and His closed ones’ lives in the last three years of His life on earth, containing a great number of wonders, dialogues and teachings that greatly develop and enrich the records from the Gospels of Matthew and John; it also contains detailed revelations explaining essential passages from the Old and the New Testament and predictions concerning events occurring during the last 2000 years, culminating with facts that characterize the technological civilization of the XX-th Century and disclosures of a scientific nature which were validated long time after Jakob Lorber wrote about them. In the Great Gospel of John, one can practically find the essential answers to all the fundamental questions of life – these are to be found in the clear, but also extraordinary deep descriptions of the divine and human nature, of the creation and the material and spiritual evolution.
How can we discern direction in life? What are reliable and unreliable sources of knowledge for Christians? How can Christian believers understand what God wants them to do? Using biblical insight, philosophical theology, and experience from over 30 years as a Christian believer, this lesson shares valuable truths about how to Know God's Will.

Nineveh repented, God relented but Jonah rejected God's mercy. Jonah ran from God and then tried to run God. God is holy and just, but He is also voraciously merciful.
Jonah's lack of fear of the Lord caused him to veer out of God's will. But the desperation of drowning brought clarity to his mind and he once again followed God.
Jonah thought he knew the Lord. He thought he feared the Lord, but discovered a true fear and respect for God. He lacked wisdom, obedience and understanding. But by the end of Jonah 1 found a new respect and a renewed interest in obeying God.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

The PBHP DYC ~ Reflections on The Dhamma (English).pptx
"And God Said..."
1. “And God Said…”
Who is God?
How Should We Relate to Him?
How Does our Response to God Shape our Lives?
2.
3. Genesis 1:1
In the beginning, God
created the heavens and the earth.
[2] The earth was without form and
void, and darkness was over the
face of the deep. And the Spirit of
God was hovering over the face of
the waters. [3] And God said, “Let
there be light,” and there was
light.
4.
5. [Romans 1:18]For the wrath of God is
revealed from heaven against all
ungodliness and unrighteousness
of men, who by their
unrighteousness suppress the
truth. [19] For what can be known
about God is plain to them,
because God has shown it to
them. [20] For His invisible
attributes, namely, His eternal
power and divine nature, have
been clearly perceived, ever since
the creation of the world,
6. in the things that have been made.
So they are without excuse. [21] For
although they knew God, they did
not honor Him as God or give
thanks to Him, but they became
futile in their thinking, and their
foolish hearts were darkened.
[22] Claiming to be wise, they
became fools, [23] and exchanged
the glory of the immortal God for
images resembling mortal man
and birds and animals and
creeping things.
7. [Romans 1:18]
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven
against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men,
who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.
Contrast to Romans 1:16-17
[16] For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the
power of God for salvation to everyone
who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
[17] For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from
faith for faith, as it is written,
“The righteous shall live by faith.”
FAITH = Righteousness
8. [Romans 1:18]
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven
against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men,
who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.
We Can Naturally Suppress Truth = Faithless
Live as if there is no God (Ungodliness)
Live as if there is no Law (Unrighteousness)
Our Faithless Lifestyles Can Hide the Reality of God
In Response – God Reveals His Wrath
9.
10.
11.
12.
13.
14. [19]For what can be known
about God is plain to them,
because God has shown it
to them. [20] For His invisible
attributes, namely, His
eternal power and divine
nature, have been clearly
perceived, ever since the
creation of the world, in the
things that have been
made.
15. Origen of Alexandria (AD185-254)
“Paul says that what can be known about God is
plain to them [all the Gentile nations], thereby
revealing that there is something about God which
can be known, even if there is much that remains
unknown.… It appears here that the wrath of God is
revealed not to those who are ignorant of the truth,
but to those who already know the truth, however
imperfectly.”
Origen Commentarii in Epistulam ad Romanos (5 vols.; ed. T. Heither; Freiburg im Breisgau: Herder, 1990–95)
16. “Plain to them…”
The creation is a transparent and clear revelation of
the greatness and the glory of God.
4th Century Anonymous Commentator
“For his work is made in such a way that it reveals its
Maker by its very visibility, so that what is concealed
may be known by looking at what is revealed. This is
revealed so that everyone might believe that he is
God, who made this cosmos, which is impossible for
anyone else to do.”
Ambrosiastri qui dicitur commentarius in epistulas Paulinas (CSEL 81.39, 41).
17. “God has shown it to them.”
God communicated Himself – He Was Clear
[Psalm 19:1]
The heavens declare the glory of God, and
the sky above proclaims his handiwork [2] Day to day
pours out speech, and night to night reveals
knowledge.
[Psalm 50:6] The
heavens declare his righteousness,
for God Himself is judge!
18. [Jeremiah 5:21] “Hear
this, O foolish and senseless
people, who have eyes, but see not, who have ears,
but hear not. [22] Do you not fear me? declares the
LORD. Do you not tremble before me? I placed the
sand as the boundary for the sea, a perpetual
barrier that it cannot pass; though the waves toss,
they cannot prevail; though they roar, they cannot
pass over it.
19. John Chrysostom (AD344–407)
“How did God reveal himself? By a voice from
heaven? Not at all! God made a panoply which was
able to draw them by more than a voice. He put
before them the immense creation, so that both the
wise and the unlearned, the Scythian and the
barbarian, might ascend to God, having learned
through sight the beauty of the things which they
had seen.”
Chrysostom Homilies on Romans 3.19 (NPNF 1.11:352).
20.
21.
22. [20]For His invisible attributes,
namely, His eternal power and
divine nature, have been clearly
perceived, ever since the creation
of the world, in the things that
have been made. So they are
without excuse. [21] For although
they knew God…
23. What Can Be Known About God?
His Invisible Attributes
a. Eternal Power
b. Deity
Has Been Hidden or Clear?
Obvious in Creation
How Long Has Man Had the Knowledge of God?
Since the Beginning
24. Empirical Investigation Reveals Supernatural Reality
The Invisible Realm of God is Made Visible in the
Mind of Faith-filled People
The Supernatural Realm of God is not a Vague
Concept, but Crystal Clear
The Jewish People had the Moral Law, but All Mankind
had the Laws of Creation. Creation Revealed that
We are Created by a Powerful and Eternal Deity. He
is a God of Purpose and Order. He is a Tremendous
God to be Feared and Honored.
25. What is the Purpose of Creation and the Universe?
To Reveal God
Basil of Caesarea (4th Century)
“The cosmos is truly a training place for each
rational soul, and a school for attaining the
knowledge of God, because through visible and
perceptible objects it provides guidance to the mind
for the contemplation of the invisible.”
Basil Hexameron, Homily 1 (FC 46.11).
26. Basil continued
“In all things visible, clear reminders of the
Benefactor grip us. We shall not give any
opportunity for sins, nor shall we leave any place in
our hearts for the enemy, if we have God as a
dweller in us by this constant remembrance of him.”
Basil Hexameron 3 (FC 36.54).
27.
28. So they are without excuse. [21] For
although they knew God, they did
not honor Him as God or give
thanks to Him, but they became
futile in their thinking, and their
foolish hearts were darkened.
[22] Claiming to be wise, they
became fools, [23] and exchanged
the glory of the immortal God for
images resembling mortal man
and birds and animals and
creeping things.
29. “Without Excuse…”
God Didn’t Entrap Them
People are Without Excuse Because They
Ignored the Obvious God
Refusal to Recognize God Moved People to Insanity
Insanity. n. mental illness of such a severe nature that
a person cannot distinguish fantasy from reality

How Did it Happen?
a. Did Not Acknowledge God
b. Did Not Honor God
c. Did Not Give Thanks
