The Lord of Hosts

As we have been discussing for some time now, our God has many names. Not many gods as many religions seem to think, but many names that describe His character. It is so hard to describe God. He is so big and beyond our comprehension. Yet He seeks a relationship with us. He desires our love. He loves us so much He sent His only Son to pay for our sins. He is the God of love and mercy and desires nothing more that everyone would come to Him and be saved, but He is also a just God. His judgment is sure. There will be a day when each person will be judged by their works to determine where they will spend eternity. But all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Or, those of us who believe and trust in Jesus Christ, who are sealed by the Holy Spirt, will be judged for our rewards in heaven. Sometimes judgment may come sooner, as He has done to His own people, and to those who oppress His people or others. He is the Lord of Hosts (also called the Lord of Sabaoth), the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He is supreme over the world, the universe, all creatures, all leaders, and His angels. One day Jesus will return with His angels. That will be a glorious day!

His fallen angels (demons) help him in this mission, and God’s angels fight against evil for good. God also gives us other weapons to fight these spiritual battles and He is there to fight for us if we ask Him.

Only Jesus

Who or what do we worship?  Is there more than one way to get to heaven or to be with God?  Can we have access directly with God or must we go through someone or something else or do certain things?  There is no other way accept through Jesus.  He is the only way.  He is all we need to receive salvation.  God’s Word is clear on this.  It is my prayer that all of my friend, family and readers understand this.  I pray that God gives me the understanding as I read (and write).  I find that it is such a joy to learn about Him and I hope you will too.
