Attributes of God.

[Christ-ian]

We all know that God is of course Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent, to be sure....but only in the sense that it is according to his will and purpose, in a righteous way.


Here are some interesting facts about God, that I would like to share with you all, because it will surely be a blessing. These are facts that come straight from the scriptures themselves. This is also for all those people who have been subjected to misconceptions of who God is and what he is and isn't capable of doing within his Ruling power and authority.

Ok so here we go,

Fact 1- God is [Knowable], to all men and wants to be known to all who are willing to put their faith in him. Unlike (Allah) for instance, where it is taught that apparently (Allah) is unknowable and transcends men, thus making it impossible to be known by men.


Fact 2- God cannot do all things, supposedly (Allah) can. Here are some examples of what God cannot do.

- God cannot lie. Titus 1:2

- God cannot learn. He is all knowing (in the righteous sense) therefore does not require a teacher to inform him. Job 21:22

- God can't sin. 1 John 1:5

- God can't remember our sins anymore after we have repented wholeheartedly and put our faith and trust in him. Hebrews 8:12

Fact 3- God does not know all things and here is what I mean by that, ( this is not a contradiction)


- God does not know a single sin that he does not hate.

- God does not know a single sinner that he does not love.

- God does not know any other way that a man can be saved other than by his Only begotten son Jesus Christ.

- God does not know of any other God except for himself. Isaiah 44:8

- God does not know of a better time to be saved other than today, right now. Hebrews 3:7-8




Now that we got those things straightened out, I would like to say once again that what I just shared with you doesn't mean that God isn't truly Omnipresent, Omnipotent, and Omniscient. It just means that he is All of those things but only within the Necessary boundaries. He exercises his power toward the necessary good of his will and plan for all of existence.


God Bless you all, and I hope that you found this post to be informative as well as a blessing.

I truly agree with what you're saying, brother in Christ. Although many people are athiest [this makes me sick in my throat, no lie.] This is why it's important to live on the Gospel, Heck! The Truth in Life, is what i call it God is all, You are either with Him or against Him... God bless you! And thanks for this wonderful thread that God put into your heart.

 

[Christ-ian]

Amen! and I agree with you about the atheistic perspective, it truly is unfortunate that so many people full of volition are willfully choosing to be ignorant towards the things of God, and subsequently they will miss out on all the opportunities that God has in store for them for all of eternity. . . because the truth is...there is an afterlife that awaits each and everyone of us, and you choose to either be with God or an enemy of God full of disobedience and lawlessness..acting out on your sinful desires, and consequently where you will end up is based on that one big decision you make.


That is why it is always important to take heed to what was written in


''THE FIRST EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO''


TIMOTHY



In which he is essentially telling us to pray for all men, for instance in chapter 2 he states in there verses:


1 Timothy 2:1

(1)Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men,
(2) for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
(3) For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
(4) Who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
