10 Wrong Thoughts About God

January 24, 2011 by

What do you think about God? I mean, what do you mostly ponder as thoughts concerning Him? I’d like to suggest that a whole lot of men and women’s thinking is not in line with who God really is. Truth be told, in many cases it is far, far from it. There a number of reasons for that. Our parents (especially fathers) are meant to portray Him. They don’t always do such a good job. The media definitely presents God in a warped way. (That’s being kind.) Even His own people (Christ followers) at times misrepresent the Lord through ungodly attitudes and actions. (Ouch.) That’s why it’s so important to always look to the Scripture for our understanding. There we find out who God really is. It’s a good picture. It’ll help you to overcome the following…

10 Wrong Thoughts About God:

1. He doesn’t care about me. (Romans 5:6-8)
2. He isn’t a part of my life. (Psalm 139:1-18)
3. He’s mad. (Luke 15:11-24)
4. He makes bad things happen to me. (Romans 8:28)
5. He isn’t on my side. (Romans 8:31-32)
6. He doesn’t want to be my friend. (John 15:13-15)
7. He doesn’t have good plans for me. (Jeremiah 29:11)
8. He doesn’t hear my prayers. (Jeremiah 29:12)
9. He’s hiding Himself. (Jeremiah 29:13)
10. He doesn’t love me. (John 3:16)

    I just had a person in my life say these things to me. I feel God had you post this just for me. Sending this to him today. Thank you so much.

    Mike, I have to add:
    #11 – God loves everyone too much to send anyone to hell.
    #12 – God will grade on a curve and we will all be okay. (He doesn’t grade on a curve, He grades on a cross)

    I have a STRONG faith and I will still go through these individually at times of heavy trial. Great list for the lost and the faithful both to refer to….
