BA2007-03-26: GOD IS ABLE

Sunday Evening Service: March 4, 2007

Ephesians 3: 20 - 21
GOD IS ABLE

Ptr MR

- Our experience limits what our human intellect can imagine
- We have a limited vision

KNOWING AND STUDYING GOD CAN’T BE COMPREHENDED AT ALL
1.) Sheer limitation of the human mind
2.) Moral problem – the presence off sin
3.) We have a resource problem – God does not simply told us all about himself
- we cannot define God because we only experience God

THE ONLY CONSOLATION IS THE PRESENCE OF OUR IMAGINATION
- how wild are your dreams?

GOD IS ABLE:

1.) He is able beyond our asking
- In Impossibility – miracles are still working
- In Insufficiency - our needs can be met
- In inability – beyond our strength

2.) He is able beyond our thinking
- we have the power of the mind
- we can’t grasp a changed life
- we can’t grasp heaven
- we can’t grasp at all

3.) He is able beyond our working
- we may literally consume our bodies to work but still short of achievements
- God grants the good success
- God gives the security
