psalm115v3 "our God is in heaven..he does whatever pleases him...."
to our human mind this seems like a violation of our rights..we get so mad..God is selfish he can't just do what he likes with me...
yes he can.
God limits himself...he is not entirely free..he cannot lie, cheat or steal..he cannot sin...so that he is holy and wholly good.
He is outside of time...Matt Chandler uses an illustration like imagine there's an hour long tv show..and i show you one millisecond of it...and i watch the whole thing...and then we argue about what the shows about..who will win?God see's everything..where we came from and where we're going..he not only see's it.he planned it.
so if God is wholly good, and outside of time..already in tomorrow and in 10 years....then i am glad that he does what pleases him.
Eph2v10
"For we are God’s workmanship..created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do...."
the greek for workmanship is polema..which is translated as poetic expressionn...we are God's poetic expression...
