Knowing God – Theology made relevant in Discipleship today
IDMC 2009 @ Covenant EFC
Session 1 – Knowing God
The Potter and the clay (Jer 18:1-17)
3 fundamental things to note about KNOWING GOD:
- It does not begin with a clever mind (v.1-2)
- It cannot happen with a stubborn will (v.3-17)
- It will not deepen with a presumptuous heart (v.3-8)
Conclusion
– A fresh encounter with God
A few quotes to reflect on:
Theology is a biblical, devout contemplation of God, the chief aim of which is to learn to think more godly about God, in order that we might know and love Him. – Edmund Chan
Surrender is not giving up, but giving in to God. – Edmund Chan
My life in my hand is a pain and a problem. My life in God’s hand is a power and a possibility! – E. Stanley Jones
