God's Alive

God is alive and well and he has a purpose for you on this earth. Wouldn't it be good to know the Master Artisans or the Creator’s plan for your life. Is he the God of Israel only and only the God of times past? Where did he go and what is he doing? Is he long forgotten because we haven't seen or experienced him in our life? I'm here to tell you God is alive. Listen from within, deep within yourself, you know you believe in God and you keep asking yourself about his existence (who, where, why and how). Therefor your proving that which you already know and believe, God is alive! So where's this elusive God and why is the world we live such a mess?


God doesn't want you confused, robbed or cheated, especially when lending your ear to his words and authority.


Ask yourself these questions:
Do you feel empty when you walk away from church services or bible study, does the rush wear off? Are you tired of hearing the same old thing every week and your questions aren't answered in ways which make sense? Do you feel robbed of resources when attending church? You shouldn't feel an emptiness after being fed the word of the living God, so what's going on?


Why not try a bible study dispensationally taught? You can do it right where you sit and you don't need to be a Greek or Hebrew scholar.
The brief meaning of dispensation: dis•pen•sa•tionˌdɪs pənˈseɪ ʃən, -pɛn-(n.)
1) an act or instance of dispensing; distribution.
2) something that is distributed or given out.
3) a certain order, system, or arrangement; administration or management.
4) the divine ordering of the affairs of the world. a divinely appointed order or age.
To study the scripture dispensationally means to study the word of God rightly divided (2 Timothy 2:15). Read the bible as it says it, to whom it says it, where it says it, in what context. The Spirit unfolds the truth of God’s words to the believer by hearing.
e.g. Did God tell you to build the Ark? No, he did not, but he did tell you, he told Noah to build the Ark. If you attempt what God told Noah (build the Ark to save yourself and your family) your neighbors would think you've lost it!
e.g. Did God tell you to lead Israel out of Egyptian captivity as he told Moses? 
God did not tell you any such thing. Those things were not written to you, but they are preserved for you, for your learning and admonition. Those commands were never delivered to Moses for Israel. So what did God say to you today? Which part of the bible is written to you and which part is for you?


We will all be judged by his words, is he the God of confusion? No, he is not! So where has mankind gone wrong in worshiping the One Holy and true God? Mankind continues to treat Gods word as though he’s eating at a buffet table. The bible isn’t laid out like a smorgasbord, but has a systematic presence.


Miles Coverdale, Prologue to the 1535 Coverdale Bible stated "It shall greatly help thee to understand Scripture, if thou mark, not only what is spoken or written, but of whom, and to whom, with what words, at what time, where, to what intent, with what circumstances, considering what goeth before and what followeth after".
Colossians 2:9-15 For in him (Jesus) dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.


Jesus Christ died, was buried and rose again, paying for all of your sins; how many sins, ALL! Don't allow yourself to be brought under the religious systems bondage. Jesus said: know the truth and the truth shall make you free! Sinner you are indeed, but made free from the penalty thereof due to the faith of Jesus the Christ, God's anointed. Do you love what Christ did for you?
