THE NATION OF ISRAEL DECLARES GOD

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Why Is A Person A Fool Not To Believe In God?

a) David starts two Psalms with "The fool has said in his heart there is no God" (Psalms 14 and 53). On the first of April, people will be trying to make fools out of others. That's just a bit of fun. But when one makes a fool of oneself, by disbelief in God, nobody laughs. Why is a person a fool not to believe in God?

2. The Nation Of Israel Declares God

a) God revealed himself in a special way to one nation Israel. To them God gave "the glory and the covenants" (Romans 9:4) in a special dispensation that is one of the best documented and detailed series of events in ancient history. We are not talking here merely about a book, the Old Testament, although its credentials are unassailable. But we are talking about a race of people (the Jews) and a city (Jerusalem) which are the tangible outcome of God's special revelation to, and special relationship with the original Israelites. 


The End ...
