How Does The Bible Describe God?

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 9, 2025

If someone asked you to describe your best friend, you would be able to describe them thoroughly. If someone asked you to describe God according to what the scriptures says about Him, COULD YOU DESCRIBE HIM THOROUGHLY?

It is important that we learn all we can learn about God from the scriptures. Why? • Because we really cannot WORSHIP GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we really cannot SERVE GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we cannot BECOME if we do not know what kind of God He is. You see, a lot of folks ...read more

The Gospel: God’s Irrevocable Promise Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Nov 17, 2015

This passage tells us about God’s promise to Abraham. God made an unconditional promise with great significance for us today. When Paul writes this he is referring to Genesis 12:2-3. It is God’s promise to Abraham and as we will see for all who believe.

We have to be cautious we do not carelessly make a promise we fail to keep. We are prone to forget what we promise. It is part ...read more
