God is Good
God is Good
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit,

And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.
He Knows What’s Best For Us
“Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone?
Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?

God Expects Believers To Obey The Golden Rule.
So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.
“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
