DENNIS

Good morning everyone. I am Dennis Gossett with Central United Methodist Church. The word omnipotent is used to describe the character of God. Ultimately, it means that God is fully and eternally himself. Having that kind of responsibility, God does not contradict himself. He is free to determine the manner of his own working; and in fact, as we know from Revelation, he has chosen to work in such a way that we can interfere in a very drastic way with his creation.

God made people in such a way that they could rebel against him and set up their own world to oppose Him. However, God knows that we can never really be satisfied with any world of our own devising, so that it will always be vulnerable to his influence in one way or another. And so, God exploits our vulnerability by always waiting patiently on us. He never turns his back or seals us off in such a way that we can no longer find Him. God will always respect the freedom and independence He has given us, but He will never abandon us neither.

Are you burdened by a rebellious past? Well, God promises that you haven’t done anything that will ever make him leave you. Call out for he is listening.
