The Big Question: What is God? 

 

 

The Philosopher’s god is an  intellectual construct of theoretical attributes such as all-powerful, all-knowing, everywhere present and infinite, and atheists are often ironically angry at him for not existing.Agnostics don't know whether to believe or to not believe.

 

The Big Answer: Who He Is!

Christians believe God is a knowable, personal, personable  being.

An eternal supernatural  being who acts justly, creatively,righteously, mercifully and purposely within the parameters of unconditional love, omniscience, omnipotence and omnipresence.

Much was revealed via the miraculous acts of God with the tiny family of Israel whom He chose from among the ancient nations. In time birthing the  long- awaited Messiah and who lived the perfect earthly life walking, doing good , teaching the peoples and substituting himself for the World instead  as the recipient of the just penalty reserved for them for rebelling against a holy God.

 God as planned via the Man Jesus,  Christianity, founded with the  human followers known as the Apostles, establishing an entity or body called the Church whom through the centuries revolutionized the world.

 

"American theologian Dan DeWitt says the Bible gives an explanation for our existence, clarity for our confusion, grace for our guilt, meaning for our mortality, and answers for our adversaries. That is so much more than a set of metaphysical propositions, and it is what we need.
