Introduction
Introduction
My biggest pet peeve concerning my children is disobedience or the failure to complete my will as their father.
When you give a command and their is a delayed response or it doesn't get done.
This behavior from my Children changes the fellowship and brings about consequence.
If you are at a job and you exhibit disobedience or the failure to complete the will of the employer there is a change in the relationship.
You will no longer be considered an employee.
Following the will of someone strongly communicates the degree of your relationship.
This idea also applies to God the Father.
The doing or rejection of His will is telling regarding the relationship.
The Ways of God (Personality)
We must know the person of God when we speak of the will of God.
What we think and know about God
Will drive your relationship to God
And your response to God
The 2018 State of Theology by LifeWay Research and Ligonier Ministries shows that our theology has declined since their prior surveys (in 2014 and 2016).
*57% deny Jesus is eternal God
*59% deny the Holy Spirit is a Person
*Only 64% say gender identity is created by God
We don’t know who we are, because we don’t know WHOSE we are!
God is: What is God?
He is independent (uncaused, self-existent)
He is a real active and living person
He is immutable (does not change)
He is eternal and infinite
He is impassible (not affected by outside entities)
He is immaterial (He is a Spirit)
Omnipotent (all powerful)
Omnipresence (everywhere at the same time)
Omniscient (knows everything)
He is holy and righteous
jealous and perfect
Truthful and good
merciful and wrathful
My grandmother was a disciplinarian.
She could work a switch.
But I could handle her discipline because of the personality she demonstrated.
She loved well.
She went above and beyond.
So discipline was manageable.
“Why do You call me Lord, Lord,”
If you serve a God who contains these demonstrated qualities it should lead you to obey.
All theological truth depends on God’s attributes.
With God’s Decretive will we are passive
With his Preceptive will we are active and therefore responsible and accountable.
The Spirit of anti-Christ is that of not doing God’s Will.
The Word of God
Because of the person of God
God is the true and living God
God reveals himself in Person
God Speaks and his direction has been preserved
God does not aimlessly communicate
but he is instructional and directional
God’s Word reveals:
Your relationship to God.
Everyone has a relationship with God
Either a right relationship or a wrong relationship
The one in the right relationship hears God
The one in the wrong relationship hears God and ignores Him.
The Bible is God’s love letter to His children.
If you don’t understand it, it’s because you’re reading someone else’s mail.
- Adrian Rogers
John 8:34-
Your response to the Word of God reveals your relationship to God.
Much hinges on your response to the Word of God
Because the Word of God presents the God of the Word.
The Word of God is a road map for our lives
My GPS was freezing as I came to a junction in an area I was unfamiliar with.
I was dependent on guidance at that time.
In this lifetime you need to know that you need guidance from above everyday of your life.
The purpose of God’s Word for us is to glorify God!
If you cant hear God you won’t know His Will because the Word of God reveals the Will of God.
The Will of God
The Word of God reveals the Will of God
Destination matters to the believer (from Egypt to Jerusalem, Sin to Salvation)
God’s will are the marching orders to:
what pleases Him
A Christian pursues the will of God because it pleases Him.
Two common words for will in the NT is Boule and Thelema.
Will (Boule)- rational (careful).
God’s Providential plan, inflexible and unalterable.
Jesus was crucified by the will of God
Thelema(Will)- God’s desired, intended , and commanded will.
God has a Decretive Will- What He says happens.
Cant be thwarted.
This is what he decrees absolutely.
With his Preceptive will we are active and therefore responsible and accountable.
The Spirit of anti-Christ is that of not doing God’s Will.
God has a Decretive Will- What He says happens.
Cant be thwarted.
This is what he decrees absolutely.
Perceptive Will- is God’s rule for righteousness for our lives.
We are governed by this will.
We take the most issue with this will
We love to hear the future but not our faults.
With God’s Decretive will we are passive
With his Preceptive will we are active and therefore responsible and accountable.
John 6:38-
The Spirit of anti-Christ is that of not doing God’s Will.
One of the Pillars of Salvation is the Will of God
