18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all
ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in
unrighteousness, 19 because that which is known about God is evident
within them; for God made it evident to them. 20 For since the creation
of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine
nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has
been made, so that they are without excuse. 21 For even though they
knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they
became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was
darkened. 22Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and
exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form
of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling

Slide 20 of 36
20 If you have died with Christ to the elementary principles of the
world, why, as if you were living in the world, do you submit yourself to
decrees, such as, 21“Do not handle, do not taste, do not touch!”
22(which all refer to things destined to perish with use)—in accordance
with the commandments and teachings of men? 23 These are matters
which have, to be sure, the appearance of wisdom in self-made
religion and self-abasement and severe treatment of the body, but are
of no value against fleshly indulgence.

enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45so that you may be
sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on
the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the
unrighteous. 46“For if you love those who love you, what reward do
you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47“If you greet
only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even
the Gentiles do the same? 48“Therefore you are to be perfect, as your
heavenly Father is perfect.
- Matthew 5:43-48 NASB
KNOWING GOD
Slide 24 of 36
So that by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to

within the veil,

5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all
generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6 But he
must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like
the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For that man
ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, 8 being
a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Editor's Notes

  1. Since last week, we discussed worship to God and how our worship is holy only because God is Holy, a good follow-up lesson would be a lesson on the Knowing God.
  2. To simply understand the begining of all things, one must know and believe in God. Interesting that Moses did not feel a need to explain who,“God” was, just that God had created the heavens and the earth.
  3. The Godhead
  4. Created in God's image
  5. Coming to know God require seeking Him with ALL OUR HEART! We must come to know God on HIS TERMS not ours!
  6. When we do not have this “insight” what are we left with????
  7. What do we learn about God from His word?
