We are shaped by our culture, family, environment, etc, but nothing shapes God. This also tells us that God’s personality and power are not dependant on anything outside of Himself. Since God does exist that means we are responsible to Him for the things that we do and must live our life knowing that He is watching us. Many people acknowledge God exists, but many of those same people live as if He doesn’t. This tells us most importantly that God exists. “God said to Moses, ‘ I AM WHO I AM.’ and He said, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ‘ I AM’ has sent me to you.” Exodus 3:14 Psalms 9:10 says, “ And those who know your name will put their trust in You, For You, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.” God is knowable and He wants us to know Him and put our trust in Him. However, we will look at some of the names God used for Himself in order to better understand His character and also what kind of a response we should have to Him. He is infinite and we can never understand everything about Him. God designed the world and He continues to be involved with His creation bringing His plan to completion.ĭiscussing God is a very big topic. The world clearly shows God’s perfect design, not random chance. He is the designer of everything (Colossians 1:16). There was never a time when God did not exist. Genesis 1:1 says, “ In the beginning God.” He is the cause of everything else. Other people ignore the clear signs of God in this world, denying His existence and turning their own way into futile speculations (Romans 1:18-32, Psalms 14:1, Psalms 19:1-6).īut the Bible claims to be the revelation of the one true God (Isaiah 43:10-11). Many are simply statues or idols made by human hands (Isaiah 44:9-20). Many of these “gods” are very much like the people that came up with them. In the world today there are many so-called gods and there are many opinions of what God is like.
