Chpt. 5, The Supremacy of God, The Photos.

Nathan, Tennessee





[ I've never really thought about how much we humanize God. To think of Him as a supreme being, unlike anything or anyone else, can often make us as humans uncomfortable, so to make ourselves feel better, we make Him like us. At least, I know I do. He isn't subject to the same faults we are; He doesn't get confused or forget about us and our difficulties; in fact, we are His primary concern, and how comforting is that? Psalm 136:2-5 Give thanks to the God of gods, for His steadfast love endures forever. Give thanks to the Lord of lords, for His steadfast love endures forever; to Him who alone does great wonders, for His steadfast love endures forever; to Him who by understanding made the heavens, for His steadfast love endures forever... vs. 23-26 It is He who remembered us in our low estate, for His steadfast love endures forever; and rescued us from our foes, for His steadfast love endures forever; He who gives food to all flesh, for His steadfast love endures forever. Give thanks to the God of heaven, for His steadfast love endures forever. ]

[ “…thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself…” Ps 50:21

Natural man puts God in a box and then views Him through a man-shaped hole. He sees God in the image of a man. The Gospel rips that box open, manifesting the all-consuming Light which has no such boundaries.

"…God is light, and in him is no darkness at all." 1 Jn 1:5

“For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” 2 Cor 4:6

“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.” Isa 60:1 ]
