The Gospel

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

[Paul, writing to Christians @ Corinth, 1 Cor. 15:1-4]

Job 38:4


Title:  Where were you?

We speculate on things we don’t understand, we theorize, we formulate equations and draw graphs and charts; and sure enough we grow vain in our own conceit.

Man was created to obey God, not to force answers out of him, for obedience brings pure joy and initiates true worship.  God has revealed to us every knowledge and wisdom that exalts his Son, that through him our iniquities might be taken away.

We must be satisfied with what we understand and respond to them in obedience to the God who knows what we don’t.

To question God is tantamount to giving him advice.  This must not be so for at the end of the matter we would be proven ignorant and we would have to cover our mouths with our hands.

Note:  Covering of mouth is acknowledgment of defeat
