  7. The Gospel “I am amazed that you are so quickly deserting Him who called you by the grace of Christ, for a different gospel; which is really not another; only there are some who are disturbing you and want to distort the gospel of Christ.

  12. The Eternal Plan Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.(Ephesians 1:3-6) before the foundation of the world, FREE WILL

  16. GOD There is no hint of moral evil in His nature “For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil dwells with You.” Psalms 5:5

  17. God’s holiness is demonstrated in Hisjustice and love toward His creation. Ps 33:4-5 For the word of the LORD is upright, And all His work is done in faithfulness. He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD. LOVE JUSTICE

  18. God demands moral uprightness in His creatures because He is Holy! “Thus you are to be holy to Me, for I the LORD am holy; and I have set you apartfrom the peoples to be Mine.”Leviticus 20:26 GOD Set Apart

  19. GOD GOD A DESIRED RELATIONSHIP:SPIRITUAL FELLOWSHIP WITH A HOLY GOD
