What Other God,do you Serve?
by ~Romeo Mannel~

But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
I Peter 5:10 [NKJV]


The scripture mentions,
 "The God of all grace." Putting it in this perspective, we would be inclined to think that it refers to one of two Gods. What other God? Prior to mentioning about the God of all grace we read that the devil our adversary, our enemy, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

Is the devil then referred to as being the other god? 
Here we have, the devil our adversary on the one hand and the God of all grace on the other hand. One is a lying and deceiving thief. Who walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may. He is in the devouring business and he go all out to do it, because that is all he knows. He is deceiving, and can become your god, to lead you astray. In the same time to devour you. Vs. 8 Encourages us to be sober, be vigilant; Vs. 9 says, to resist him, steadfast in the faith,... Because these are the one's whom he seeks, the one's who do not,who cannot, walk according the Spirit but according the flesh. Galatians 5 vs. 19 - 21.

We are all concerned about our eternity, where will we spend it. That's why we want to make sure about our eternity and we choose what appeals most to us.

Then we have the true God, the God of all grace who called us to His glory in Christ Jesus. 
1 Corinthians 1 vs 9; 1 Thessalonians 2 vs 12 
He will, after we have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle us.
