GOD WANTS A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS CREATION!

March 2009 article by Simon Thompson

God who created heaven and earth did so in order to have a relationship with his creation and in particular man whom he created in his own image.

He gave man free will to choose to serve his creator out of a free heart and mind rather than some kind of robotic state. However man may have been created in his image, but the nature of man (because of free will) isn’t inherent of the Father.

All GOD has asked for is that man should obey his commands and follow his ways out of a free heart, given that he wouldn’t exist without his creator.

As Adam and Eve disobeyed him in the Garden of Eden so through the expanse of time man has continued to turn his back on GOD and find many complex ways to be free of any responsibility.

In the past, GOD chose good men to lead and become leaders of many people who could be his people, who could serve him and obey him. GOD wants a relationship with his creation! Yet even they turned their backs on him.

He sent Judges and Kings to lead and encourage his people to follow his ways, yet they rejected him time after time. He sent his Son born of a virgin through his sprit power, hoping they would listen to him. Yet they took him and crucified him.

No more does GOD interact in the same way. He has left us his word with the past, present and future in it. It is now up to us as men and women of his creation to discover the evidence of him and his Son the Lord Jesus Christ.

He has given us all the information we need to find him - we must obey him and strive to follow his ways just as he asked Adam and Eve to. Yet we have an enormous advantage in that he has told us the future, in which he will set up on this earth a kingdom where all those who have striven to serve him and follow his ways will be there with him and this is where GOD will have this relationship with his creation.

If you wish to be part of a kingdom which will last forever where you can have a relationship with your creator, then read the Bible discover what the prophets tell us about this remarkable time ahead, as well as his son the Lord Jesus Christ.

They all point to one thing - GOD`S Kingdom on earth and his relationship with his creation!
