Welcome to Refinery Life Australia. The theme for the coming few Sunday mornings is “God’s Affirmative Action Program.” Today we are talking about God's Affirmative Action Program: The Revelation. Revelation is a word we use to describe the disclosure of truth. The first chapter of the book of John presents a great revelation, John 1:14, And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. Unlike the other Gospel writers, John did not start his book with scenes of Christs birth. Instead, he started at the very beginning. John 1:1 NKJV 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. As part of His affirmative action program, God became one with us, Through His Son, Jesus, God came into the world to fulfil His plan to bring people back to Himself and provide all humankind with an equal opportunity for reconciliation with Him. In our Scripture reading today, we learn that God chose John the Baptist to act as a witness to this great revelation. Until next time Stay in the Blessings I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word. When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer. Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body! You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you. So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!
