Episode Overview
- God uses jealousy to bring about salvation.
- Humanity's brokenness leads us to idols and addiction.
- Experiencing loss can create a deeper longing for God.
- Gentiles are part of God's plan to provoke Israel to jealousy.
- Acknowledging God brings true fulfilment and salvation.
Longing comes about when loss comes about. And God has to hand us over to our idols so that we see how much loss the idols produce in our souls.
Colin Cook takes us on a spiritual journey in this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', focusing on Romans 10:19 and the intriguing concept of a 'jealous longing for God'. With a deep dive into the book of Deuteronomy, Colin explains how God uses jealousy to bring about the salvation of Israel.
He explores the human condition, our tendency to stray from God, and how our idols – be they addictions or other distractions – lead us away from true fulfilment. Colin's reflections highlight the paradox of loss and longing, illustrating how God allows us to experience loss to create a deeper yearning for His presence.
This episode is a thought-provoking blend of biblical prophecy and practical insights into human behaviour, making it a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the spiritual dimensions of addiction and recovery. Colin's compassionate approach and rich scriptural knowledge provide a unique perspective that is both enlightening and comforting. Tune in to discover how embracing faith can intercept addiction and lead to a more fulfilling life.
