Question:

Had God looked through time and saw that no one would have received Christ’s sacrificial death as God’s atonement for sin, would Jesus still die on the cross?

Ps. 90:8

God knows all of our thoughts and sins whether the world sees them or not. So our thought process has to start by Glorifying God and with a pure heart toward all that we are in contact with. Now in my old life I was bad about over analyzing everything and everyone but now I've found something to analyze that I could spend three life times on and not even scratch the surface the Bible!!!!! and the only one that suffers is you having to read my long responses. LOL I said all that to throw this at you about this verse. When each word is defined and fit in the context of God's message to me, this verse becomes so powerful. Here's what I came up with. “Thou hast set (to direct with fixed attention) our iniquities (wickedness/gross injustice) before thee (in the presence of), our secret sins (sins of thought) in the light (spiritual awareness), of thy  countenance (to manifest displeasure).” Wow God allows us sinners in His presence even though it gives Him displeasure. In His Love for us and His Holy Being He will forgive us of our sins and allow us into His kingdom and all we have to do is ask and have Faith.  Praise God!!!!!!!!!!  Derek Rohrkemper

Ps. 90:8

I feel like with Psalm 90:8 that God is saying that he has already weighed and measured my life and still wants for me to come to him. That God with his pure and Holy light has even allowed the stain of sin in my life to be in his prescence and still wants me, thats kinda awesome!     Holly Barger

Ezek. 11:5

I love these scriptures. They make my faith in God stronger. Everything about me is known by Him. The good thing is He still loves me even though He knows all about me. The way I see it. When I am walking in His Word, I know the joy of my salvation and can truly rest and trust in Him and be joyful. When I am not, I am convicted and must repent. He shows me these things because He knows these things. So when I pray, I am a winner either way. Conviction hurts but it is good for the soul because it causes me to make things right. So I am a winner either way. Thank you precious Jesus. You are my God. We never have to explain ourselves to God. He already knows. He still wants to here our praise and confessions but it is comforting to know, He Knows.  Thanks for these studies pastor. I love them.                  Donna Turner

Ezek 11:5

Yes God knows all about me and He is all knowing of everything. So we need to keep God in our heart so He can use us in His will.  This verse is showing that man cannot trust his own heart but must leave it all to God who alone knows the heart and judges all men fairly. Only a person with a redeemed heart can live in proper fellowship with God.  God bless love and prayers your friend and Sister in Christ   Sandy Egbert

Ezek. 11:5

This tells me that my God knows the present and future thoughts, both bad and good, of everyone. As God's children, the Holy Spirit (with emphasis on HOLY) lives in us and He knows our every thought.  This tells me to think godly thoughts all the time (lol) as if I could.  I know the Lord tells us not to grieve the Holy Spirit in Eph. 4:30.  With God's help, we are to try not to sin in our thoughts, words or behavior.  Sin starts in the heart and mind, the Holy Spirit is there to help us say no to sin.  If we ponder sin and do not say no, it becomes the sinful hurtful words out of our mouths and possibly bad behavior.  Love you Pastor, your sis in Christ     Ruth Singleton
