When is God Pleased?

When is God pleased and satisfied with us? Many Christians struggle with this question.

I had a quiz on my website for a while back, and one of the questions I had was: When do we please God? I was amazed how many people wrote: It is when I pray, don’t do any sins, sing worship songs, do evangelism, lead someone to Jesus and so on.

The focus was on what we need to do, but what is it that really satisfies God?

I have good news for you today, your worth is not connected to what we do, but who we are (read also more text under!).

What does God require?

What does God require? Or what does he desire most of all?
Is it our nice works or behavior? Is it our devotion to him or how much we pray?

My question is this: Do we live under the law or grace? If we live under grace what is the requirement? Get the answer in this message!

Know Who You Are!

God gave you emotions. Part 4
See more of the seminar here!

God is not sin focused, but He wants to show us who we really are in Him.

He wants us to be grounded in who we really are. It is to be grounded in who we really are in Christ that will cause us to not sin.
For in Christ, you are holy, pure, a righteous child of God, chosen and so on.

You also need to see that when you were born again, you were set free from the power of sin, and you died from your sin. You are already crucified with Christ, and your old sin nature is dead, you must see yourself as dead to sin.

God is Not Condemning You!

God gave you emotions. Part 3
See more of the seminar here!

I have seen a large increase of fear and depression, especially among young people.
Many believe that to get Norway and Europe to repent, we must preach the law (The 10 Commandments and morality) to them so that they feel judged and condemned, and then they will turn to God. We hear some preachers say or express: If you do not repent, God will punish you, or you will perish if you do not repent of your sin.

I don’t think preaching the law and the threat of punishment is the right approach to get people to repent. 
You may have been raised up by: When we feel bad, you will get better and do what is right, but to a large degree, this was not Jesus’ message to the lost, although He did preach The Law to the ‘Religious Leaders” who preached ‘The Law’ to the people (for their own greedy ends), but themselves lived a secret life of sin in their thoughts and judging attitude.

Do We Have to Give the Tithe? (And are we under a curse if we don’t give)

Perhaps you have heard: You steal from God if you don’t give the tithe, or you are under a curse if you don’t give, or God will punish you if you don’t give the tithe, or God will not heal you if you do not give. These two things are usually not said directly, but it can often be perceived in this way and maybe someone thinks this way too?
In fact, I’ve heard someone say it like this: If you are stingy (“and do not give to us”) then you will go to hell, for those who are stingy will not inherit the kingdom of God.

I get very upset when I hear statements and teachings that are manipulative and that give you guilt, condemnation or fear like this!
None of these things are compatible with God’s character, and some can easily take scriptures out of context and misuse them.

In this teaching today I hope I can give you some clarity and also free you from condemnation and guilt especially in connection with the tithe and money.
