Attributes of God – What Can We Know About Our God?(Intro)

Who is the God of the Christian faith. Is the God of the Bible an unknown quantity? Is it true that God is so mighty and holy that He is also distant and unknowable?

Are you a non Christian? Are you an honest skeptic? Do you say “I don’t believe in God because we can’t know Him.” ? Follow along as we look into the things that we do know about God.

Why are we given God’s attributes? Why does Scripture speak of these different attributes? Think how big God is. We are unable to grasp all of God’s character at once. We then learn about God by looking ay Him from different perspectives over a period of time.

Let me caution the reader – never set these varying perspectives in opposition to ne another. They are to be used to look at the totality of God’s character.
