sermon: Limiting the Holy One of Israel (Part 2)
Causes for Limiting God
Martin G. Collins
Given 29-Mar-08; Tape #874
Description: Martin Collins, in this second installment on Limiting God, warns that we limit the Holy One of Israel by failing to faithfully follow His instructions. We limit God through our willful sin and disobedience, pride and self confidence, ignorance and blindness, and our fear of following God. Fear and love are totally incompatible. The way to get rid of debilitating fear is to have love, reverence, awe and fear of God. At the present time, we are standing before God"s judgment seat, protected and justified only by faith in the sacrifice of Christ, the starting point of sanctification, giving us access to a relationship with God. During sanctification, God is giving us His own nature, enabling us to come boldly before His throne in prayer. Justification and sanctification are meant to work together in our spiritual development, perfection, and ultimate glorification as a spiritual offspring of God, stamped in the image of our Elder Brother, Jesus Christ. Realizing our tremendous potential, we should not be afraid of yielding to God"s will and purpose. (67 minutes)
