Who is God?

Hello There!

Welcome to class.

It is difficult for us as human beings to explain who God is, for the god we can explain fully cease to be God.  As Christians, we get our ideas about God from the Bible.  Therefore, the Bible helps us to know who God is.

God is the Supreme Being because He alone created the world and Human Beings.  He is a spirit, infinite, eternal and unchangeable. He is unchangeable in His being, power, wisdom, justice, goodness, holiness and truth. (Gen. 1:1, Jeremiah 10:12). As the source of the world and everything that exists, God is self-sustaining in that He eternally exists by His own nature. Because God is infinite and perfect, God lacks nothing and needs nothing.
