Genesis 15:1-7 The longing of the person who is really serious about his spiritual life is to know God more fully. God has responded to that desire and need by allowing us to know Him and His character through the names that are given to Him. We have seen that the name, Elohim, speaks of…

Genesis 1:24-31 “What is the chief end of man?” A Cathechism teacher asked her class. The quick response from one child was, “The chief end of man is to glorify God and ENDURE Him forever.” This is an all-too-common view of God. He is someone who should be glorified, but the process is one of…
