God In Man's Image

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 10, 2021

Most people need a concept of God that can be embodied in some kind of a mental image. This is why the Bible is filled with what is called anthropomorphism. That is a big word that simply means the picturing of God in the form of a man, and with characteristics of a man.

She came and sought to comfort him by telling him God was there with him, and so he didn't have to be afraid. He was all right for a while, but then he called her again. When she came up ...read more

God In Man's Image Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

Even before man knew of God the Son, the Father was described in terms of human characteristics. The reason for this is obvious, for there is no alternative if man is going to have any intelligent concept of the nature of God.

Considering God’s Choice

No Ordinary Man

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Oct 19, 2012

Jesus went to great lengths to validate his identity by using his name which is synonymous with God’s name. Jesus told his listeners plainly who he was by name but they did not make the connection. Have you mistaken His identity?
