The Importance of a True Belief About God
You can't live beyond what you believe. The issue of who God really is and what we believe about Him is incredibly important. This is one of the most important beliefs one can have.
Think about it for a moment. The belief in who God is and how He feels about individuals shapes the actions of a Mother Theresa or a William Wilberforce or for that matter you too. Beliefs about God are the starting point for all of morality, for how we view and treat other people, and how we should personally act.
Therefore, having a false belief about God – who He is and what He really does expect from us – is a very serious problem. If you hold a false belief about God, it is a big deal, perhaps the biggest in your life. Because the stakes are so high, we need to examine our beliefs about God and not simply hold to those we “like” while discarding all those we don’t.
We need to make sure that our beliefs about God match what we can know about Him from His Word, the Bible. It is simply foolish to think that you can pick and choose your God–narrative based on whether you liked the story that someone told or whether you like or dislike certain requirements for serving Him. It is important to know what you believe.
