Welcome back again to the fourth installment of our series exploring our relationship with God. We began by looking at the dynamic between Jesus, the scriptures, and the holy spirit. Then in part two, we saw the pivotal role that Faith plays in our relationship with God, and how coming to him requires not only that we know his character, but we know our status, as redeemed new creations because of his sacrifice. Then, in the third part, we begin exploring how understanding our relationship and status in Christ affects our perceptions and how we live day-to-day. Now, we will continue examining how understanding our new nature in Christ changes even how we approach God in prayer, by looking at specific teachings, and examples shown in the scriptures. Let's get started.
