CHARACTERISTICS OF GOD THAT HE SHARES WITH US


Having mentioned the big ticket characteristics of God yesterday, such attributes as self existent, eternal, omniscient, omnipotent, self sufficient, time transcendent and non corporeal which belong exclusively to him, there are other qualities of God of which there was intended to be a reflection in the human. Some of these are intellectual attributes like knowledge and wisdom, and moral attributes such as righteousness, holiness, goodness, love, grace, mercy, longsuffering, truthfulness and faithfulness. And there are volitional attributes like reasoning, ability to choose, to decide and even to cause. Humanity was created to have relationship with God because of this resemblance and to desire to worship God and to have ability to serve him.
