Biblical Answer

Can I Still Have a Relationship with God?

The Bible teaches that our relationship with God is not based on our performance or efforts, but rather on the work of Christ in communication and love. As Christians, our sufficiency of relationship is in the infinite-personal God, not in our own actions or deeds. This means that our relationship with God is not dependent on appeasing an angry or irritated God, but rather on responding to His love and grace. In fact, the Bible says that our good deeds are intended to be a response to what God has done, not a cause of it.

The Bible also indicates that our relationship with God is a permanent one. If we are children of God, then we are heirs, and our relationship with Him is secure. This means that we don't have to worry about being born into God's family one moment and kicked out of it the next. Our relationship with God is not based on our behavior or actions, but rather on our identity as children of God through faith in Christ. This identity is not something that can be lost or taken away, but rather it is a permanent and secure relationship.

In fact, the Bible says that God's thoughts are precious to us, and that He desires a personal relationship with us. This relationship is one of love, joy, and blessing, and it is not dependent on our performance or efforts. Rather, it is based on the infinite-personal God who loves us and desires to communicate with us. So, can you still have a relationship with God? The answer is yes, and it is a relationship that is secure, permanent, and based on God's love and grace.
