MY TESTIMONY &
GOD’S RECORD OF HIS SON
by Pastor Max Solbrekken,
D.D.
(1) God’s
goodness leads me to repentance.
“Or despiseth
thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing
that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? (Romans 2:4)
(2) God’s mercy endureth forever. (Psalm 135:23, 24)
(3) God’s
love is past finding out.
“O the depth of
the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How un-searchable are his judgments, and his
ways past finding out!
For who hath
known the mind of the Lord? Or who hath been his counsellor? Or who hath first given to him, and it shall
be recompensed unto him again? Romans
11:33-35)
(4) God is
not a man that He should lie (repent/change).
Hath he said, “Every
good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father
of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. (James 1:17)
(5) God’s patience
with me overwhelms me.
“And account
that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom
given unto him hath written unto you; (2 Peter 3:15)
(6) God’s
grace is sufficient to meet all my needs.
“Or despisest
thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing
that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? (Romans 2:4)
(7) As far as the east is from the west, so far
hath He removed our transgressions from us.”
(Psalm 103:12)
(8) God’s wisdom is above all understanding and
too great for human knowledge or pondering.
(??????)
(9) As a mountain in comparison to a pebble on
the beach is God’s stature so far above me.
(?????)
(10) It is beyond human reasoning to compare humans
to God. (???)
(11) Martin Luther stated, “I live as though Jesus
Christ died yesterday, arose today and is coming tomorrow. (Luther’s total submission to God’s call on
His Life.)
(12) God casts
our sins into the bottom of the sea.
“He will turn again,
he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou will
cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.” (Micah 7:19)
(13) God is
my Father, Jesus is My Saviour and ADVOCATE, the Holy Spirit is my guide and
Intercessor.
“Likewise the
Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as
we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which
cannot be uttered.” (Romans 8:26)
“But as many as
received him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them
that believe on His name:” (John 1:12)
“Wherefore He is
able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing He
ever liveth to make intercession for them.” (Hebrews 7:25)
(14) I am
crucified with Christ! When Christ died,
I died. When He arose, I arose and when
He returns, I will come with Him.
“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ
liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of
the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” (Galatians 2:20)
“So Christ was
once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he
appear the second time without sin unto salvation.” (Hebrews 9:28)
“Beloved, now are
we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know
that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he
is.
And every man
that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.” (1 John 3:2-3)
(15) I am Hid with Christ in God!
“For ye are
dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.” (Colossians 3:3)
(16) God is gracious and long suffering.
“The LORD is
gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.” (Psalm 145:8)
(17) God is
righteous, Holy and merciful to all who call upon Him in sincerity and truth.
(18) God
rewards such persons who prostrate themselves before Him in submission and fear
of the Lord.
(19) He is not a God who is afar off but is nigh
unto all who call upon Him in sincerity and a broken heart, in faith believing.
“Am I a God at
hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off?”
(Jeremiah 23:23)
(20) Without faith it is impossible to please Him, but with faith in His finished work on Calvary for us, we receive His forgiveness, peace, healing and salvation in His eternal Kingdom, world without end! AMEN
