Do you have anything to share to a non-Christian friend about the Christian God? What is His Characteristic? Fundamental and True Christians believe in God the Father Almighty, makers of heaven and earth and that everything that exists is part of the Creator's plan that will bring Him glory and honor both in this world and in the next. He is the one and only makes the universe and mountains into existence for the reason it cannot make itself into existence. He made everything. He made man and woman. When we call God the Father we are saying that He is the Supreme Creator of all things.
Below are some Bible verses stating God's characteristic:
Isiah 44:24 (KJV ) Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself
Amos 4:13 (KJV) For, see, he that forms the mountains, and creates the wind, and declares to man what is his thought, that makes the morning darkness, and treads on the high places of the earth, The LORD, The God of hosts, is his name.
Jeremiah 10:12 (KJV) He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.
Holy Scripture tells and conveys about what God the Father attributes from on his declaration in His words and His works and we begin to appreciate it. God attributes or qualities are Communicable Attributes and Incommunicable attributes.
When we speak of God the Father Communicable attributes, we are talking primarily about his moral attributes. These are the qualities of our God that we can experience and understand.
*Justice - Where God The Father always does what is ideally right according to the law, we do not behave perfectly. We can be lawful, and in so we imitated the perfect justice of God.
*Love- God is love, and He expresses His love perfectly when He sent His son Jesus to be our lamb, for us to have an unlimited forgiveness of sins. Because we are handled by sin, our expression of love towards others will always be tarnished.But we are still able to show it.
*Hate -God hates, but he does so righteously and with perfect judgment and knowledge. However, we often hate sinful and ignorance.
* Knowledge -Where God knows all things and we only know partially. Our knowledge is limited and always will be limited.
The incommunicable attributes of God, these are qualities of His nature that we can never have and that belong to God alone. For example, God knows all things and we do not. God is everywhere and we are not. God is all-powerful and we are not. Omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence, infinity, self-existence, immutability and spirit. Many people desire to have these attributes of our Creator but He doesn't want to share with His creatures.
*Omnipotence - God is able of doing anything He desires.
* Omniscience - God has perfect, complete knowledge. He never masters, nor does He fail. He knows all things that exist and all things that could have existed.
* Infinity - God is without measure or limit in scope or duration.
*Self-existence - God is not dependent upon anything else for his existence.
* Immutability - God's nature does not change in any way. His nature has always been and will always be exactly the same
* Spirit - God exists completely enough as an intangible being without physical characteristics
Christians, don't just read it. Share it, and live it.
