Selling God Short

I often come upon a belief held by people that seems to be based in a feeling that God is not completely trustworthy. This sounds quite odd but please bear with me. This is especially troubling because I get this impression not from unbelievers but from brothers and sisters in Christ. And this not from casual or careless believers but from people I consider sincere believers. This feeling usually arises when talking about the individual nature of our relationship with the Father. There are two primary ways of seeing the Christian experience – basically individual and basically corporate.
