Love Keeps No Record of Wrongs

We have probably all heard that God is love (1Joh 4:8), but what does that really mean? 

Some believe that God only has love, it’s only one of his attributes, and he will show it to us when we deserved it or when we have behaved good.

Some believe he only loves me and will hear my prayer when I have repented from all of the sins I have done. Some may even think: All sins I have done since I was a child and I also need to know exactly what I did.  
So they search and search their past and life to discover what they have done wrong, but that is not what God wants you to do. It is about how much you are forgiven and loved, not how much you have sinned.

There are a lot of people who are not very confident in their prayer, fellowship and communication with him, because they believe that God keeps a record of wrongs.

Never Give Up, Even If You Feel Like It

I have a testimony on how God gave me a big answer to prayer, even though I was about to and felt like giving up several times. 
Have you ever felt that you could never overcome a situation, I will never come out of this situation or it will never change for me, or I have this weakness that I can never manage to overcome? These are feelings of powerlessness and despair, which also the spirit of fear is behind. Is this an emotion that God wants you to have? No! These feelings are actually the root of most of your negative emotion and fears. The fear that you will never succeed, and the feeling of failure, for example, has its root in that you feel it is hopeless to try, you’ve tried so many times that you feel totally powerless.

Truth and emotions

God gave you emotions. Part 7
See more of the seminar here!

If you are what we call a “Bible Believing Christian”, (believe what that the Bible tells us is true), you often know what it says, but because you do not always feel that what it says is true, you do not really believe what the truth it is saying. Even if you are a Christian, you have almost certainly been affected by this emotionally ruled world we live in. This world tells us that you should not believe something is true before you feel or see it. But that is a lie, and certainly not faith.

What Is the Purpose for My Life?

God gave you emotions. Part 6
See more of the seminar here!

Many people struggle with this question: What Is the Purpose for My Life? Or as a Christian it can be: What is God’s purpose for my life and what can he use me to? The feeling of having a purpose is an important one, because we don’t feel content with life if we have no purpose.
God’s purpose for your life is actually not a difficult one, it’s easy.
God’s main purpose for your life is for you to discover how much you are loved by God and to have a close fellowship and relationship with him.
In fact, it is not primarily about all other choices we make and what to do and what to not do, but God’s main purpose for you is to have fellowship with Him and enjoy that fellowship.

Know That You Are Loved

God gave you emotions. Part 5
See more of the seminar here!

Sin is a thing that will bind you and lead you into bondage. Paul says in Romans that he who sins is a slave to sin. You are not called to be a slave to sin, but you are called to be free, free from sin and its power. God want to shift your focus away from sin and to righteousness.

God does not focus on your sin, but who you are in Him, and that you are loved.

He will establish you in what you already are in Him and that you are righteous and loved. That is His goal.

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.

What Religion Has Done With Emotions

God gave you emotions. Part 2

Many have the image that to be a good Christian is related to surrender, relinquish and give up everything including joy, and everything that feels good is bad or a sin.
I must say that in the first 20 years of my life I was actually not sure of whether God wanted me to be happy or not, that I should feel happiness.

There was some talk about suffering for God, and give up things for God. I thought it was very spiritual to not be happy. For instants, I thought it was very spiritual to cry. I assumed that diseases and depression was a part of suffering as a Christian, and that  the condemnation and guilt was something that a Christian should have.
 But I was wrong!

God Gave You Emotions

God gave you emotions. Part 1
See more of the seminar here!

What does the Bible really say about emotion? Are emotions something that is negative or positive? Does God want me to be happy? How can I control my emotions? What connection is there between feelings and fears?

Emotions can be our best friend or our worst enemy. In this teaching, I will give you some truths about feelings and emotions that can help you to manage them in a correct and good way, and how you can feel the way that God wants you to feel.


What I want with this teaching is to show you that the emotions are there and they are given to you by God. You can either lie or ignore them, or you can learn to do something with them. 
When we understand why God has given us emotions and we can use them properly, we can apply them in a good way.

If I can learn how to handle my emotions, I can also deal with life and what comes my way.It is one thing that is certain about emotion: We all have them. But unfortunately there are times when the emotions have us. It is when the emotions have us that they become a problem.

Friend and Father or Slave?

Many view Jesus and God as a stern Lord or slave master, but it could not be further from the truth. Yet, many Christians are very focused on what they must do for Jesus, or whether they are doing everything right.
They might think: Have I committed some sins that have made God angry at me, and in some way he wants to punish me?

What are Jesus and God calling us? Is it slaves and servants? Or is it his friend and son or daughter?
I want to share with you two scriptures today that will show very clearly how God looks at you.
