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 #45

Ephesians #45

Paul uses family relationships -- marriage and family -- to characterize ministry relationships (1Th 2:4-12, Eph 5:22-23; Eph 6:1-5). "Submitting to one another in the fear of God" (Eph 5:21). Blessings are given for us to become a channel of them. We need a relationship revolution: (1) there are only two kinds: good and bad; (2) examples of the contrast are the "Orange" and Bolshevik revolutions; (3) good revolutions are based on responsibility personal relationships; (4) every believer has been enlightened, given power, to have profound impact on the world around them (Mat 28:18-22); (5) this begins at home. Marriage becomes a living witness to Christ and church. Family illustrates love among the brethren (2Co 3:6).
