Chapter 11: God’s Eternal Character

Could it be that God set up the Middle East conflict we are now engaged in several millennial ago? John records this warning from Jesus.

“The time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service.” John 16:2

God Sees A Bigger Picture Than You Do!

In God’s bigger picture, He intends to test the hearts of those who claim to be with Him. This is the group of people who have accepted His righteousness and given up on their own definitions. God’s test will come to

you in very subtle ways that will give you an easy pass to do evil. It might be a simple clerk’s oversight that allows you to walk away with $80-110 totally unnoticed. It might be what you do in public that God will test you on. It might be things in private. It will be unrighteous things that you can

get away with. That is how God will test your heart. Be ready and be right!

“The Lord tests the righteous, but the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates.” Psalm 11:5

In the typical Christian’s eyes, there is no picture beyond what his or her senses can detect. This is another way of saying that Christians do not typically engage their spiritual intelligence. That is because they usually do

not have any, preferring instead to simply lap up whatever their preacher delivers from the pulpit. Will you rely upon the preacher for your eternal salvation and that of your family? If you do, you may be very sorry in the end when you have to face God. Remember, even bishops will lie to you

about what God’s Word and what the Holy Spirit says. You can develop deep spiritual intelligence by understanding God’s eternal character and also knowing His written word. The knowledge in this book can be a beginning.
