Important Points as We Discuss God's Attributes
As we go through the different attributes of God, there are a few things are important we are keeping in mind.
-
On this earth, we will not fully comprehend God, but as we spend more time with God, our appreciation will grow.
-
We need to accept the biblical truths about who God is in faith and not try to manipulate who God is to fit our ability to understand.
-
We will not solely look at one of God's attributes in isolation because all of God's character works together in perfection.
God is Gracious
Grace is undeserved favor, blessing or kindness. In human terms, we can see people extend grace or we can show grace to others. However, the word grace in relationship to God’s character takes on a much more powerful meaning. Grace is God choosing to bless us rather than curse us as our sin deserves.
God is Immutable
We live in a world where almost everything seems to change. People change.
Culture changes. Our plans change. Even our own thoughts, feelings, and priorities can change from one day to the next. But God does not change. His character does not change. His plans do not change. His truth does not change.
