Description
  • Knox explores the topic of God's character as creator, relational, and judge from Genesis 1:26. God is personal; humans are likewise made to be in personal relationship with God and with others. God's purpose for us as relationship-focused creatures is demonstrated by our physical, moral, and spiritual characteristics. We have been given a universal God consciousness in our personal nature. Our powers of speech, thought, will, and morals distinguish us from the rest of creation and enable us to relate with others. As personal beings, we are responsible for our actions. We will be assessed based on our relationship with God and with others. Our understanding of judgement is fundamental to our view of the world and of God. The gospel is closely linked to the doctrine of God's judgement. We will all stand before the judgement seat of Christ. If we ignore reality and God's reign, God's wrath will overtake us. In Acts 10, Peter preaches on the aspect of God as judge. For us today, we likewise are to preach God as judge and the free offer of forgiveness offered through Jesus. We cannot ignore the truthfulness of God and purpose to be in relationships.
