New way of studying Bible:
Little flip outs

ch4,10

why did God make us?
for his glory...find a passage that includes ALL men not just the saved

why send to hell?
because it glorifies God...find a passage, not just what hell is for
illustration with "You meet a homeless person. You give him clothes, a haircut, wash him, and then give him plenty of money to find a job. He doesn't. Would you give him a second chance?" No
This is an awful illustration but find one.

**Careful with words to Gabe
**Work at my prayer requests!

Romans 2:
God's judgment should always be mentioned with God's love & patience & desire for us to be saved. We don't repent out of fear, we repent because we know God's kindness & love.
When looking at others' sins & shortcomings, be reminded of my own need for Christ. I am not any-more deserving of salvation as a born-again Christian.
God loves us all equally, wants us all to be saved equally, and will not judge anyone differently. He is impartial.

Preach the Gospel to Yourself...you need to remember it
Can judge someone's salvation...must be able to explain what they're saved from (can they explain Gospel message)...do they obey God?...lastly, does their heart SEEK CHRIST as a lifestyle (they can still fail at times)

1 tim 6:6
hebrews 13

Romans Chapter 1:
Our responsibility is to proclaim Christ to ALL.
Being saved is more than knowing who God is; it is a relationship!
Emulating Paul, his prayers and ability to say "God be my witness"


Genesis Chapter 14-16:
Faith is righteousness NOT action
Our faith can waver...look at Abram's failing to continue believing in God's plan...continue refreshing my trust in God
