The Beauty of God

About this series: While we regularly encourage people to be engaged in mission and give some ideas about what that could look like, our next series looks at the reasons and motivations for mission. After the first week - What Is The Good News? - we’re going to spend five Sundays looking at the Why? of the gospel. Why is the gospel such good news? What biblical reasons do we have to engage in mission? About this talk: The good news is not only that we can be rescued from sin, death and hell, but that God has made a way for us to enjoy him, the greatest, most beautiful treasure. Salvation is not only a wiping clean of our past, but a future in which we are fully satisfied in God because he is fully satisfying.  Many years ago I read, ‘God is beautiful - and not many people know that.’ One of the great tragedies of life is that men and women, if they have any conception of God at all, do not know him for the beautiful being he is; and that every attribute he has is beautiful.  Why should we engage in mission? Because we desire to share with people the most beautiful of all treasures, God.  Why not explore further:  - In what ways is God beautiful?  - What other ideas of God do people tend to have?
