Who is God, What is God, & How can we know God | GotQuestions.org

Question, Who is God? What is God? How can we know God? In this video I'll answer those questions from a biblical perspective.

Afterwards I'll share some helpful resources, so stick around to the end. The fact of God's existence is so conspicuous, both through creation and through man's conscience, that the

Bible calls the atheists a fool. Accordingly, the Bible never attempts to prove the existence of God.

Rather, it assumes His existence from the very beginning. What the Bible does is reveal the nature, character, and work of God.

Thinking correctly about God is of utmost importance because the false idea about God is idolatry. In Psalm 50, verse 21,

God reproves the wicked man with this accusation, "...you thought I was altogether like you."

To start with, a good summary definition of God is the Supreme Being, the Creator and Ruler of all that is, the self -existent

One who is perfect in power, goodness, and wisdom. We know certain things to be true of God for one reason.

In His mercy, He has condescended to reveal some of His qualities to us. God is Spirit, by nature intangible.

God is One, but He exists as three Persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God the

Holy Spirit. God is infinite, incomparable, and unchanging. God exists everywhere, knows everything, and has all power and authority.

Here are some of God's characteristics as revealed in the Bible. God is just, loving, truthful, and holy.

God shows compassion, mercy, and grace. God judges sin, but also offers forgiveness.

We cannot understand God apart from His works, because what God does flows from who He is. Here's an abbreviated list of God's works past, present, and future.

God created the world. He actively sustains the world. He is executing His eternal plan, which involves the redemption of man from the curse of sin and death.

He draws people to Christ. He disciplines His children, and He will judge the world. In the person of the

Son, God became incarnate. The Son of God became the Son of man and is therefore the bridge between God and man.

It is only through the Son that we can have forgiveness of sins, reconciliation with God, and eternal salvation.

In Jesus Christ, all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form. So, to really know who

God is, all we have to do is look at Jesus. Hungry for more? Subscribe so you don't miss the next video!
