In this sermon, Pastor Ryan talks about God's jealousy that's marked by His passion and commitment to us, His creation. God's jealousy is not equivalent to human jealousy stemming from insecurity.

That no advantage may be gained over us by Satan: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 2 Corinthians 2:11 ASV The intention of the devil is simply this: to gain advantage.

When you have the Word of God...
