GOD IS GOOD

​WEEK 1
GOD IS A GOOD GOD
It doesn’t matter what any one says about God.  It’s what the Bible says that counts.
In all of Creation: (Genesis 1:3-31)
Genesis 1:3-4; 
Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.  And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.
God SAID IT.  He SAW IT.  It was GOOD
Also in verses 10; 12; 18; 21; 25.  Then In
Genesis 1:31 And Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
One thing WAS NOT GOOD.
Genesis 2:18  And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.”
Genesis 2:21-22  And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.
Our Wonderful and Good God has never, ever created anything that was bad.
You might ask. “How about the devil?”
He wasn’t always bad.  The prophet Ezekiel said by the Spirit of God, in Ezekiel 28:15  
Let’s read the verses leading up to verse 15.  Starting with:
11 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 12 “Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “You were the seal of perfection,
Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.  13 You were in Eden, the garden of God; Every precious stone was your covering: The sardius, topaz, and diamond, Beryl, onyx, and jasper, Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold.  The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes Was prepared for you on the day you were created.  14 “You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you; you were on the holy mountain of God; You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones.
15 You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created.  Till iniquity was found in you. 
This perfect creation was in EDEN, the Garden of God.  His name was not satan.  His name was Lucifer, or Day Star.  Isaiah saw it all in Isaiah 14:12-15.
The Fall of Lucifer
12 “How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!  How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations!  13 For you have said in your heart: ‘I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation  On the farthest sides of the north; 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.’  15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit.
Jesus said in John 10:10-11(AMPC)  The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows)
11 I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd risks and lays down His [own] life for the sheep.
