God and Christ

The document discusses Paul's message about God and Christ to the people of Athens. It summarizes Paul explaining that God, as the creator and ruler, wants a relationship with humans. Paul notes the city was full of idols but that God is not like idols formed by humans. He urges them to seek God and repent. The document also provides background on Paul preaching about Jesus' resurrection in Athens and references several Bible passages about God, judgment, salvation and reconciliation through Christ.

Basic Principles #02 God & Christ Hebrews 5:11 - 6:8 Compiled and Presented by: Dave Stewart 2018 June 10 www.1corinthians1614.com Synopsis: While not explicitly stated in this passage, it’s clear that an important part of the foundation is an understanding of who God and Jesus are. Paul helps us to understand that this glorious immortal God desires a relationship with us, that we should seek him, find him and repent. “Let all that you do be done with love.” "Unless otherwise indicated, all Scripture quotations are from The Holy Bible, English Standard Version, copyright © 2001 by Crossway Bibles, a division of Good News Publishers.
