We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

We believe in the five great points commonly known as Calvinistic; but we do not regard these five points as being barbed shafts which we are to thrust between the ribs of our fellow-Christians. We look upon them as being five great lamps which help to irradiate the cross; or, rather, five bright emanations springing from the glorious covenant of our Triune God, and illustrating the great doctrines of Jesus crucified.
C.H. Spurgeon

A Methodist (Christian) is one who loves the Lord his God with all his heart, with all his soul, with all his mind, and with all his strength. God is the joy of his heart, and the desire of his soul, which is continually crying, 'Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth whom I desire besides thee.' My God and my all! 'Thou art the strength of my heart, and my portion forever.' He is therefore happy in God; yea, always happy, as having in him a well of water springing up unto everlasting life, and over-flowing his soul with peace and joy. Perfect love living now cast out fear, he rejoices evermore. Yea, his joy is full, and all his bones cry out, 'Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his abundant mercy, hath begotten me again unto a living hope of an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, reserved in heaven for me.
John Wesley

60:1 Een gouden kleinood van David tot lering, voor den opperzangmeester, op Schusan Eduth; (60:2) Als hij gevochten had met de Syriers van Mesopotamie, en met de Syriers van Zoba; en Joab wederkwam, en de Edomieten sloeg in het Zoutdal, twaalf duizend. (60:3) O God! Gij hadt ons verstoten, Gij hadt ons gescheurd, Gij zijt toornig geweest; keer weder tot ons.

60:2 (60:4) Gij hebt het land geschud, Gij hebt het gespleten; genees zijn breuken, want het wankelt.

60:3 (60:5) Gij hebt Uw volk een harde zaak doen zien; Gij hebt ons gedrenkt met zwijmelwijn.

60:4 (60:6) Maar nu hebt Gij dengenen, die U vrezen, een banier gegeven, om die op te werpen, vanwege de waarheid. Sela.

60:5 (60:7) Opdat Uw beminden zouden bevrijd worden; geef heil door Uw rechterhand, en verhoor ons.

60:6 (60:8) God heeft gesproken in Zijn heiligdom; dies zal ik van vreugde opspringen; ik zal Sichem delen, en het dal van Sukkoth zal ik afmeten.

60:7 (60:9) Gilead is mijn, en Manasse is mijn, en Efraim is de sterkte mijns hoofds; Juda is mijn wetgever.

60:8 (60:10) Moab is mijn waspot; op Edom zal ik mijn schoen werpen! juich over mij, o gij Palestina!

60:9 (60:11) Wie zal mij voeren in een vaste stad? Wie zal mij leiden tot in Edom?

60:10 (60:12) Zult Gij het niet zijn, o God! Die ons verstoten hadt, en niet uittoogt, o God! met onze heirkrachten?

60:11 (60:13) Geef Gij ons hulp uit de benauwdheid, want ‘s mensen heil is ijdelheid.

60:12 (60:14) In God zullen wij kloeke daden doen, en Hij zal onze wederpartijders vertreden.
