About
The same God who spoke the world into existence still speaks his life-giving word into the world today. The hearts that receive his word receive a God of eternal support-a God who is for them. This is the God who always was, actively is, and ever will be for his people. The word of God is true, and the promise stands secure: "If God be for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31).
Before we were born, our God was for us by shaping who we would be, where we should live, what we should do, and when we should come back into relationship with him. He gave us life and placed us in three key environments for our growth, nourishment, and fruit: nature, his word, and his Son, Jesus Christ.
At this moment, our God is actively working for us. By our faith, we are "born again," and we receive an entirely new life source, identity, and power from Christ. He actively grows us into the image of Christ for our special purposes in his work. He actively works the perfection of our faith by leading us into good works, our righteousness in them through Christ, and into his perfect peace and presence in our lives. God guards his work of perfection in our hearts and minds by providing a twofold hedge of protection.
After we sleep, our God will still be for us. When we rest in hope after we die, God will raise us up unto perfection with Christ. He will clothe our new spiritual bodies with righteousness in Christ and establish us into his heavenly kingdom to come.
