Spiritual Minded

Contributed by Clarence Weaver Sr on Jan 17, 2013

The Mind Of The Lord Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Aug 25, 2013

God transcends words. He is beyond language. We cannot reduce Him to our experience. God is unique and different from anything in this world. He is massive, boundless, beyond all imagining. God is His own category.

I’d like to explain to you Who God is…but I can’t. Isaiah speaks of God as so massive, so far above us, that we can barely take in who He is. God surpasses human comprehension. Some people think they can put God “in a box”; that is, have Him fully figured out. How ...read more
