Who is God is a great question that we must all answer.
Our understanding of the nature of God will define how we relate to Him.
A healthy view of God will cause us to desire to have a personal intimate relationship with Him
- God is the Creator, Sustainer and Provider of the universe, the world and all of mankind
- God made us in His image and gave us a free will to live with Him or without Him
- God sent His Son to die on the cross to restore us to a relationship with Him
An unhealthy view of God will cause us to be cold and unwilling to allow God to move and work in our lives.
- God is to be feared. His is angry, wrathful and waiting to punish us the moment we step out of line
- God is a creation of the weakness of man's unintelligent mind. God is a crutch for the weak and a source of hope to people locked the past
While our view of God is essential for us to answer, the most important question is "Who is God to me?"
Matthew 16:15 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" 16 Simon Peter replied, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
John 14:8 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us." 9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father."
I believe that God is my creator, sustainer and provider. He is my sovereign God, King and the Lord of lords. I accepted His Son as my Savior not because of the fear of hell but to accept His offer of peace, forgiveness of my sins and a personal relationship with Him. Since I believe that He is a loving God, He desires to save me rather than destroy me. I am mature enough to know that sin came into the world because of rebellion and sin. I know that an all good and Holy God has no evil in Him. He never promised to exempt me from pain, sorrow and troubles but He did promise to be with me every day even to the end.
Who is God to you?

In the Worship Service on Sunday, January 17 in response to the unbelievable disaster in Haiti, it was announced that a special offering would be taken for the Christian Missionaries in Haiti and that the church would match the offering up to $2000.00. This offering netted $1,677.15 -nearly the full match amount!
This past Sunday, another $2,550.00 for Haiti was contributed by FCCR members. The overwhelming generosity shown by FCCR members for those in
need in Haiti is deeply appreciated. The elders have decided to match every dollar purposed for Haiti. FCCR is sending a check to IDES (International Disaster Emergency Service) for Haiti relief in excess of $8,500.00!
"And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all
sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good
work." 2 Corinthians 9:8
