The Activity of God
Going through the Bible, book by
book, chapter by chapter, verse by verse, phrase by phrase and word by
word to give attention to the following:
--the Names of God;
--the word & deeds of God;
--the sayings of God;
--the attributes of God;
Too
often the churches weakness and the Christians weakness is found in
this one sin, 'we do not know God'. We have not studied the Bible, nor
Him to learn more of Him. Seeking that this might be a help for myself
and others in this pursuit that each of us 'may grow in grace and
knowledge of our Lord.'
