A Father’s Day Message about Our Heavenly Father

Posted on June 18, 2023 by Wayne Davies

Here are some thoughts on what it means to have God as our Father.

Because God is the Father of all true believers, we can experience true unity as children of God in the family of God. Our heavenly Father has only one spiritual family, the universal Church of God.

How We Got Here. We did not always belong to God’s family. Lest we forget “from whence we came,” it is good to remember that we entered the world as “children of wrath, like the rest of mankind” (Eph 2:4). Before coming to faith in Christ, we lived under the power of Satan, “the god of this world” (2 Cor 4:4). What Jesus told the unbelieving Jews applies to all unbelievers: “You are of your father the devil and your will is to do your father’s desires” (John 8:44).

Then, one day, the “Father of lights” (James 1:17) rescued us from the “domain of darkness” (Col 1:13) and the clutches of our evil father. What Paul told the Thessalonians becomes reality for all God’s people: “you are all children of light” (1 Thess 5:5).

To become a Christian is to become a new person with a new identity in a new family. We are the children of God! Incredibly, the Creator and Sustainer of the universe is now our Father, and He has promised to take care of us in both this life and the next, meeting every need and providing life “beyond measure” (the meaning of “abundant” in John 10:10).

How can this be? Who, after all, did God bring into His family? In Romans 5:5-10, Paul describes us as weak, powerless sinners, ungodly at best, hardly commendable as the enemies of God.

We are all the beneficiaries of God’s desire to pour out His love and affection on undeserving rebels and bring us home. God’s salvation is described in Scripture with many word pictures, yet they all accomplish the same goal – our inclusion in God’s household forever.

The Father Caused You to Be Born Again. All believers become God’s children through the new birth, aka “regeneration,” the instantaneous impartation of divine life into those formerly “dead in sins” (Eph 2:1).  Just as we were born biologically into a human family, we have been “born again” supernaturally “of the Spirit” into God’s spiritual family (John 3:6, 8). Praise be to God, because “In his great mercy he has given us new birth” (1 Peter 1:3). May the truth of these words thrill our souls today: “But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions” (Eph 2:4-5).

Since we have been born “from above,” we are all in the same family – God’s family! We have the same Father because we have all been “born of Him” (1 John 2:24). Don’t let our physical and cultural differences cloud our unity as brothers and sisters with one Father. We have identical “spiritual DNA” – the life of God that pulses through the veins of all God’s offspring.

The Father Adopted You. All believers also become God’s children through adoption.  “You have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” (Romans 8:15). Like regeneration, adoption is the miraculous work of God in which He takes the initiative to accomplish His salvation. The result is that all God’s adopted siblings become heirs of God, possessors of “an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you” (1 Peter 1:4). Furthermore, we now have full access to our Father in a relationship of intimacy and submission. Amazing!

The Father Has Given You A Special Status. It is tempting to minimize the significance of this title, “the children of God.” Oh, may we never take it for granted! John emphasizes the magnificence of this divine designation, for it is no minor moniker. Listen closely: “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are” (1 John 3:1). We are “called” the children of God because “we are” the children of God. Here is the glorious grace of God, “lavished on us” (NIV) at great cost to God through the death of His Son. This is breathtaking!

The Father Has Loved You with An Enduring Love. All believers of all ages receive the same intensity and longevity of the Father’s agape love. This truth alone should be enough to erase every trace of division, jealousy, and animosity among believers. To understand the dimensions of this love is to discover the key to harmony in the Church: since God loves you as much as He loves me, how can I withhold my love from you?

Questions for Reflection
1. How do you go about maintaining a relationship of intimacy with your heavenly Father, both individually and corporately?
2. What do you do to cultivate a balance between being a child who cries “Abba (Daddy), Father!” (Romans 8:15) and being one who “trembles at my (the Father’s) word” (Isaiah 66:2)?

What Did Jesus Look Like?

Posted on June 17, 2023 by Wayne Davies

Do you ever wonder what Jesus looked like?

I’m referring to his physical appearance.

How tall was he? What color was his hair? Did he have a beard? And so forth.

Can you think of any Bible verses that address these questions? There aren’t many.

Here’s one.

 

“He had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him.” (Isaiah 53:2)

What does this verse mean? I like this explanation:

“Jesus’ appearance was just like any other man’s – He was ordinary-looking. Isaiah was here prophesying that the coming suffering Servant would arise in lowly conditions and wear none of the usual emblems of royalty, making His true identity visible only to the discerning eye of faith.”
https://www.gotquestions.org/Jesus-look-like.html

Here’s another one, because God wanted us to know what his “suffering Servant” looked like on Good Friday:

“His appearance was so marred, beyond human semblance, and his form beyond that of the children of mankind” (Isaiah 52:12)

At the same time, the Bible does tell us much about what Jesus looked like . . .  spiritually. It describes his character in great detail. If you want to know what he was like in that sense, we have hundreds of verses that present his personhood clearly and compellingly.

This is one of the main themes of Scripture: the incomparable spiritual beauty of our Lord Jesus Christ.

If someone were to ask you, “What was Jesus like? Tell me about him,” what would you say?

Where would you begin? What words would you use? How would you describe the indescribable?

May I make a suggestion?

Start with the words of Jesus himself. How did he describe himself?

In the book of John, Jesus made seven incredible statements about himself, all beginning with the words “I AM.” These seven “I AM” statements are a self-portrait of Christ. He paints a picture of himself with such amazing clarity, you would do well to pursue a deep understanding of their meaning and significance.

I have always wanted to do a more in-depth study of the seven “I AM” statements of Jesus. I recently did just that, with valuable help from Heather Erdmann’s book A Week in the Word, an excellent resource on how to dive into the Word with the inductive Bible study method.

The result of my study is the new book (co-authored with Heather) . . .

A Self-Portrait of Christ:
A Seven Week Bible Study on The I AM Statements of Jesus

It is available in two formats:

Paperback (on Amazon) – CLICK HERE

eBook (a free digital download) – CLICK HERE

If you want to learn more about Christ, to know him better so you can worship and love him, this study is for you. This is an opportunity to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). It is also ideal for your small group Bible study or Sunday School class.

Please take note that the eBook version is free.

Enjoy! And may you be enthralled by the glory of Jesus as you sit at his feet and gaze at his matchless splendor!

It would also be a big help if you’d leave a review on Amazon. Or, should you get the free eBook, please send me your feedback via email at godwrotethebook @ gmail.com (just a few sentences on how you benefited from reading it).

What the Bible Says about Success and Failure

Posted on June 7, 2023 by Wayne Davies

How do you define success?

And what does it take for you to view a project as a failure?

The Apostle Paul helps us answer these questions.

In 1 Thessalonians 2:1, he writes these words to the church that he, Silas, and Timothy started:

“For you yourselves know, brothers, that our coming to you was not in vain” (ESV).

Paul looked back at his time in Thessalonica as a success. It was “not a failure” (NLT). It was time well spent; it was not “wasted” (CEV).

We know what happened during this visit. According to Acts 17:4, Paul preached the gospel and the initial response was positive: “Some of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, as did a large number of God-fearing Greeks and quite a few prominent women.”

This is encouraging – many people were converted, both Jews and Gentiles!

Other Jews, however, became jealous and “rounded up some bad characters from the marketplace, formed a mob and started a riot in the city” (v. 5). Eventually, things got so bad that Paul and his companions were forced to leave the city, a common occurrence during these missionary journeys.

The negative reaction of the unbelieving Jews did not cloud Paul’s perspective, however. He focused on those who welcomed the truth and came to saving faith in Christ.

Look at how Paul describes these believers:

“For this reason we also constantly thank God that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but for what it really is, the word of God, which also performs its work in you who believe. For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea, for you also endured the same sufferings at the hands of your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews” (1 Thessalonians 2:13-14).

One could look at this situation and say the results were “mixed.” Many believed and these new Christians became one of the strongest churches in the New Testament. Paul commends them for their faith, love, hope, joy, patience, and perseverance. They became a “model to all the believers.” (1 Thessalonians 1:3-10)

And others rejected the gospel and ran Paul out of town. And even the Gentiles who became Christians were persecuted by the non-believing Gentiles.

Yet the church prospered. The people grew spiritually and became strong in the faith. This is what mattered to Paul.

And it is what should matter to us today.

The gospel continues to go forth throughout the world. And Jesus continues to do what He said He would do: “I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not overcome it.” And while Christ is saving the lost and sanctifying His people, is there opposition and persecution from the enemies of God? Yes, and plenty of it.

As you look at your own life and the part you play in the spread of the gospel and the growth of the church in your community, how do you evaluate the situation?

What do you choose to focus on? The positive results or the negative?

May we all have the perspective of Paul. We can expect the results, from a human standpoint, to be “mixed.” Yet because we know what God is doing through it all, the time we spend doing kingdom work is never in vain. It is never wasted, because we know that if we love God, He is at work in the lives of His people, working all things together for our good and His glory. Amen?

The Freeing Reality that You Are Not Enough

Posted on May 20, 2023 by Wayne Davies

I have many favorite Bible teachers. Some of them happen to be women (and moms), such as Jen Wilkin.

Do yourself a big favor and listen to (or read) this podcast entitled, “The Freeing Reality that You Are Not Enough.” It’s available here:
https://www.crossway.org/articles/podcast-the-freeing-reality-that-you-are-not-enough-jen-wilkin/

This presentation is packed with biblical truth. And you need not be female to benefit.

Here’s an overview:

What Christian Women Often Lack
The Lens of Self-Worth and Identity
A Challenge Facing Christian Women
How Fear and Love Can Coexist
Two Extreme Views of God
The Effect of Earthly Fathers
To the Fatherless Woman
God’s Infinite Nature
Sin’s Effect on Our Limits
Knowing Our Limits
Our Desire for Control
God’s Sovereignty
Explaining God’s Sovereignty to Someone Struggling

Let me say this again: you need not be female to benefit from Jen’s teaching.

The section on “The Lens of Self-Worth and Identity” applies to all of us. Here’s what she says:

“What we all want to believe is that we’re enough. But what the Gospel tells us is that apart from Christ we’re not enough. And in fact, even once we become believers our enough-ness is only rooted in the finished work of Christ. But when we have that sense of, Maybe everyone is going to figure out that I’m a fraud or, Maybe everyone is going to find out that I’m not everything that I put myself out there to be, we’re right. We’re not enough. We can’t do everything that we should do to please the Lord. By the power of the Spirit we can grow in our ability to do so as believers, but the culture wants to tell us, No, you’re enough. You’re good. You do you. Live your truth. But the Bible is saying something radically different. It’s saying, There is a God. He is seated in the heavens enthroned between the cherubim. Because he is your origin, you are obligated to him. You’re obligated to obey him. You’re obligated to worship him. For the believer it moves from obligation to joy because we recognize the truth of it. But to the unbeliever it’s like, Why would I worship something outside of myself?”

“Self-worship and self-loathing, ironically, are always holding hands with one another. Both of them involve self-focus. Women spend a lot of time self-loathing. You can tell from the way that goods and services are marketed to us. Messages that they are enough are very appealing to them. It’s important as believers for us to come to the Scriptures and say, Wait a minute. If I am an image-bearer of the God who sits enthroned between the cherubim, then that’s a different way of understanding my enough-ness, so to speak, than what the world is trying to tell me.”

Wow. Meditate on that for a while.

The Bible’s teaching on self-image, self-worth, and identity is indeed “radically different” than the secular worldview.

This is a profound and life-changing message that we all need to hear. I sure do.

Thoughts on the Thessalonians (Part 1)

Posted on May 13, 2023 by Wayne Davies

There are many good ways to study the Bible. I’m a big fan of the inductive Bible study method. Kay Arthur has been teaching this approach for decades. I’ve read her book How to Study Your Bible several times. We would all do well to master the principles presented here.

 

A more recent advocate for the inductive method is Heather Erdmann. In 2022 she released A Week in the Word, and I immediately wanted to utilize the steps presented in this book. So I did a study of the seven “I AM” statements of Jesus (from John’s gospel) using her format, and benefitted greatly as my knowledge of and love for Jesus increased significantly.

NOTE: I’ve been working on a book version of this “I AM” study, co-authored with Heather, hopefully to be released soon. Stay tuned!

Another method that I use is Erik Raymond’s CRAM approach, in which four specific questions are asked of the text.

Regardless of which method we use the study the Word, what should be the result? 2 Timothy 3:16-17 tells us:

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”

God wants to do at least five things for us whenever we study his Word: teach us, rebuke us, correct us, train us in righteousness, and equip us for good works. What good Father would not do that for his children?

God is in the business of sanctifying us through his Word, changing us to become more like Jesus every day. If that is not happening, then we are missing the point of Bible study.

Now I’d like to show you how I use the CRAM method.

I’ve been reading through the New Testament each year, usually a chapter a day, five days a week. But I rarely just read it. I typically have a notebook and pen in hand, and while reading I interact with the text by asking questions of the passage, such as the questions from the CRAM method. Here are the four questions, along with some of my responses from my journal on November 14, 2022, when I meditated on 1 Thessalonians 1.

See how my Father, through this opening section of Paul’s letter to a young yet thriving church, teaches me, rebukes me, corrects me, trains me, and equips me to do his will.

1.“C” is for the Character of God:
What does this passage teach about who God is?

v.1. God is “the Father.” He is “our God and Father” (v.3), which means he is my Father.
v.1. Jesus is “the Lord Jesus Christ.” He is Lord, the sovereign ruler of the universe. And he is the Christ, the Messiah, the Anointed One, anointed by God to come to earth and accomplish our salvation and bring us to God.
v.10. One day the Son of God will come from heaven to rescue God’s people from “the coming wrath” – the wrath of Jesus and his Father. Only Jesus can do that.

2. “R” is for Responsibility:
What does God require of his people in this text?

This is the focus of the passage. Paul tells the Thessalonian church that he prays for them and continually thanks God for them because of their work of faith, their labor of love, and their steadfastness of hope in Christ. Then he continues to commend them for their many demonstrations of genuine faith.

We have here two great examples of what it means to live a life pleasing to God.

Example #1: Paul’s prayers for the Thessalonians. Note these characteristics of godly prayer:
— thanksgiving to God for the people of God (v.2)
— praise to God for the faith, love, and hope of God’s people (v.3)
— this thanksgiving and praise was an ongoing practice; he did this “continually” (v.2)

The example of Paul’s prayer life is also the responsibility of all believers. This is how all Christians should pray for one another.

Example #2: characteristics of the Thessalonians. Here is a description of what it means for a church to be filled with genuine believers. They were characterized by:
— faith, love, and hope (v.3)
— Christ-likeness; they were imitators of Paul and Jesus (v.6)
— joyful reception of the Word (v. 6)
— perseverance: they were persecuted for their new faith, yet did not jump ship in the midst of severe suffering (v. 6)
— true conversion experience: they turned to God from idols; they had a radical change of life, doing a 180, leaving their lives of paganism and embracing Jesus as Savior and Lord (v.9)
— patience: they were waiting for Jesus to come back from heaven to rescue them from God’s wrath (v.10)

The example of the Thessalonians is also the responsibility of all believers. This is how all Christians should live.

3. “A” is for Attitudes and Actions:
What does this passage reveal about my attitude and actions?

Example #1. How is my prayer life for other believers? Lately, I have been praying less for other Christians than I used to. Not good! There are many believers that I pray for regularly – my wife; people in our Bible studies; leaders at our local church (staff, elders, worship leaders, etc); missionaries. Recently, my wife is the only one that I have been praying for consistently. This is a sin of omission for which I need to repent.

Example #2. How am I doing in each of the areas listed above, the characteristics of which the Thessalonians were model believers? Taking a spiritual inventory is hard. There is always room for improvement in every area. My biggest weakness tends to be my love for people. Lately, that seems to be improving. My hope in Christ is also strong. Having faith in God’s sovereignty is a challenge right now. I am distraught over the lost condition of many family members. I keep praying for them, yet there is no change. Rather, they all appear to be moving even further away from God.

4. “M” is for Meditation:
How does this passage teach me to trust and treasure Christ more?

The Thessalonians were imitators of Christ (v. 6). That is my prayer today: “Jesus, make me more like you. Give me love for the believers in my life; renew my desire to pray for them. And please give me your love for the people in my family who don’t know you. You are not on their radar screen at all, which is how I lived for many years. Give me patience and kindness toward them, no matter how they treat you. Please grant me your compassion for them, for you are the perfect example of how I should love them.”

Jesus: The Ultimate Realist

Posted on April 26, 2023 by Wayne Davies

Jesus was the ultimate realist.

He told His followers exactly what to do with His Word: share it. Give it away without cost, because “You received without paying; give without pay” (Matthew 10:8).

And He also told the disciples exactly what types of responses to expect from people. Some would receive the Word with repentance and faith because Jesus promised that “I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it” (Matthew 16:18).

But many will also reject the Word and those who share it because the gospel, as Paul wrote, “is folly to those who are perishing” (1 Corinthians 1:18).

Jesus repeatedly told the disciples to expect ridicule, hatred, persecution, and even martyrdom. I believe it is wise for us to reflect on this often, so we will not be surprised when it happens.

The extent of this opposition varies greatly, from the not-so-subtle rolling of the eyes when a co-worker discovers that you are a Christian, to the physical violence that believers experience every day throughout the world, especially in Muslim countries, from both government and family.

Consider these words spoken by Jesus:

“You will be hated by all for my name’s sake.” (Matthew 10:22)

“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.  For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a person’s enemies will be those of his own household.” (Matthew 10:34-36)

My personal experience with persecution has been limited. When I became a Christian, my family did not ostracize or disown me. In fact, they supported me. The only time I can remember being verbally abused by a non-Christian was during my 35-year career as a tax accountant. When one of my clients found out I was a Christian, he loved to make fun of me and call me an idiot for believing the Bible. We had many conversations about Christianity, and he did most of the talking. We would meet to do his tax return and end up spending most of the time discussing his objections to the faith. Nothing I said made a dent in his worldview.

What are we to do when faced with such a negative response to the gospel?

Again I turn to what Jesus said:

“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul (a synonym for Satan), how much more will they malign those of his household.” (Matthew 10:24-25)

During His earthy ministry, some people responded to Jesus with love and devotion. But most people rejected Jesus. And so they will reject us, too. Expect it. Do not be alarmed by it. And persevere in spite of it.

Jesus was the most loving person who ever lived. He loved like no one ever loved. Those who accepted Him and His message were welcomed with open arms into His kingdom and His family. And those first disciples, along with throngs of others who have submitted to His reign over the centuries, will live in His glorious presence forever.

Yet because Jesus spoke the truth of God, He was ridiculed, laughed at, mocked, and killed.

Why should we expect to be treated any differently? “Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted” (2 Timothy 3:12).
