I Don't Know About You But I Believe One Of The ...
Contributed by Tim Overton on Nov 27, 2003 (message contributor)
I don’t know about you but I believe one of the most important considerations in Christian life, salvation and believer’s baptism taking preeminence; is knowing what the Will of God, for our life is. As I have studied this subject, I have noticed that the phrase “Will of God” or “God’s Will” usually in most concordances fall into two categories. One category is “God’s moral will.” The other category is “God’s personal Will.” There are more than a dozen references to “God’s moral will” in the New Testament, but the area of God’s will that most people are interested in, is God’s personal will. How can we know what God’s personal will for our life is? And that is exactly what it is, personal, very personal. One theologian writes that, “the will of God is; God’s personal, moral, and providential plan for His creation.
