Human Nature

August 16, 2015 • Pastor Richard Schmidt

If we are all good at heart, why is it taking so long for the world to evolve to a better place? The truth is the human heart is selfish, self-centered, and self-seeking. This was not God's original plan for us, but a result of Adam and Eve's trust in themselves rather than God and their temptation by Satan. If our hearts are truly focused only on ourselves, what hope do we have? Fortunately God had another plan. Through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit we are given a new heart. One which seeks to overcome the three "selfs" we are born with.

Are there many paths to find God, or is there, as Jesus claims, just one way? And, if so, could it be that this seemingly exclusive belief system is actually more inclusive and freeing than any other?
