The Death Of God, Part 3 of 3 (The Mysteries Of God)

May 17, 2019

Before Jesus voluntarily gave His life, He said, “It is finished.” There are no sufferings we could undertake to remove sin’s penalty. Only the perfect sacrifice of Jesus could do that. The death of Jesus gives life to all who believe.

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

If you’re a dad and your son is gravely ill in the hospital, you would do anything to trade places and bear your son’s pain. The same is true for God the Father. When His Son Jesus agonized on the cross, God felt the pain His Son was enduring, knowing that Jesus was paying the price for our sin.

The death of Jesus on a Roman cross is the turning point of history. That act of obedience to the Father provided salvation to all who believe on His Son. Jesus said, “There is no greater love than a man lay down His life for His friends.”

“I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” These shocking words in John 14 state that, without Jesus, there is no way to have eternal life. But how does this relate to the Trinity?

The relationship between the Father and the Son is crucial for understanding Christianity. Because of the Father’s love, Jesus came and died as a sacrifice to satisfy God’s justice so that guilty sinners can be forgiven. That is an expression of love that can never be fully understood.

How do the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit relate to each other? There’s great mystery here, but the Bible gives us direction in understanding this. Let’s clarify their roles, focusing first on how Jesus, God’s Son, spoke of His Father in heaven.

God is incomprehensible. He is so vast that our tiny minds cannot fathom His immensity. Theologians have wrestled with the nature of God for centuries, trying to sort out how the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit relate to each other. But it’s not a problem to be solved; it’s a mystery at which we marvel.

To ask why God does what He does is to go where angels fear to tread. Paul wrote, “How unsearchable are His judgments, and His ways past finding out.” God’s purposes are unable to be thwarted. We must learn to accept His sovereignty and obey His commands.

Though many scheme their way to power in politics, it is actually God who sets up the leaders of nations. History has been called “His story,” and rightly so. God’s decrees determine and structure history, even the rising and falling of governments.

Long before any of us were born, the life-giving God set His creation in motion. These creative actions were grounded in His eternal decisions. Theologians call these decisions “decrees,” non-negotiable orders God laid down—which govern creation, redemption, and history.

The complexity of the human body is awe-inspiring. We take for granted that we each have some 34 trillion cells, each one packed with volumes of information. As our amazing Creator, God knows us completely.
