Welcome to The Refuge on Hilton Head Island, SC

The Latest at The Refuge: Two-Faced God

God is vastly more complex than we could ever possibly understand or explain. He cannot be reduced to a catchy phrase or summarized in a book or sermon. He is larger than our concept of enormity, greater than our concept of grandeur, stronger than our concept of potency, and deeper than our concept of profundity! He is not a puzzle to be solved or a door to be unlocked; He is a mystery to be explored and a Truth to be investigated!

A cursory glance of scripture might lead one to believe that God is erratically duplicitous, a two-faced deity wildly inconsistent and unpredictable. Yet each seemingly contradictory characteristic reveals yet another facet of the infinite layers of the Creator of all things! He is loving, yet just, merciful, yet jealous, patient, yet demanding, approachable, yet holy! He is thousands of dichotomies and millions of intricacies contained within a single entity, expressed in three distinct, divine personalities! And we can learn so much more about Him by examining the diametric qualities that often cast confusion and doubt as to His true motives and intentions!

So what about this Two-Faced God? Does He really exist? And if so, is He trustworthy? Can we ascertain enough about this mysterious Being to understand Him, to get to know Him, to count on Him, to consolidate our lives with His?! Can we bother Him with our questions, trust Him with our doubts, and make Him our own?! Will we even try?!
