In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', the focus is on the powerful message of Romans 8:34-35, exploring the idea that Jesus is not two-faced. Colin Cook passionately unpacks the notion that both God the Father and Jesus the Son are equally eager to save us. Through an engaging discussion, he dispels the old-fashioned imagery of Jesus pleading his blood before a reluctant Father, emphasising that God's love and grace are abundant and unwavering.
Colin highlights how faith can train the mind to overcome feelings of guilt, shame, and condemnation often associated with addiction. He explains that addiction begins in the mind, and through faith, one can achieve mental stability and ultimately see victories over addiction. Colin uses court language to illustrate how God justifies and defends us, showing that Jesus, who died for our sins, does not condemn us.
The episode also delves into the concept of Jesus' resurrection as proof of God's love and commitment to giving us eternal life. Colin reassures listeners that Jesus' intercession is not about convincing God to love us but rather about demonstrating God's already present love and care. He encourages a child-like trust in God, reminding us that nothing can separate us from the love of Christ, not even our darkest moments or deepest struggles.
With heartfelt anecdotes and scriptural references, Colin Cook provides a comforting and hopeful message for anyone battling addiction or feeling disconnected from God's love. This episode is a must-listen for those seeking to strengthen their faith and find solace in the assurance of God's unwavering support. Feeling weighed down by guilt or addiction? Tune in to hear Colin Cook's uplifting message about the boundless love and grace of God.
