The prophet grapples with the “mysteries of Providence,” and the age-old dilemma of reconciling the presence of evil with the existence of a good and all-powerful God. This is called “theodicy,” the “vindication of the justice and goodness of God in spite of the existence of evil in the world” (Webster’s Dictionary). Habakkuk clearly declares that the ultimate resolution of the dilemma is found only by a living faith (Hab 2:4) in a loving God (Hab 3:13).

This book contains the notes from the Orange County, California Bible conference held in August 2010.

Ephesians #16

Ephesians #16

We need to see Jesus Christ character in order to become like Him -- to "walk worthy of our calling" (Eph 4:1-2). Mat 11:25-29 you have to become a child to believe the truth -- totally depend upon Him. "Take my yoke" - school of learning - "for I am gentle and humble in heart". Mat 12:19 He didn't quarrel nor cry out. Eph 4:1-32 is a school intended to reflect Christ's character; Eph 4:2 illustrates. "lowly" means dependent; "gentleness" refers to power under control; "long-suffering" means to have a short fuse. Luk 1:46-55 Mary expresses this character while speaking of the coming Savior.
