Scriptures: Isaiah 6:1-9, 40:18, 1 Peter 1:15-16, 1 John 1:9, Psalm 99:5
Your view of God determines your relationship to God. As we study an incident that took place in the life of a man named Isaiah, over 2,500 years ago, Dr. Merritt details several things we need to see. First we need to see the real God, and then knowing Who He is, we can see ourselves in His light. These two views demand a response, a surrender, to a holy God.
"My view of God determines my relationship to God. You cannot know God as God is to be known and you will not see God as God is to be seen until you know Him and see Him as the God Who is Holy." --Dr. Merritt
