Module 2 - Theology: The Doctrine of God

The purpose of this current module is to explore what the Bible teaches about God Himself, which is to say, what God reveals to us about God. So if you wish to gain a deeper understanding of who the Lord is, these lectures aim to benefit you. The lectures in this second module on the doctrine of God are, like the others, introductory, not exhaustive; and they’re intended to furnish you with a foundation that you can build upon in your further studies. But that is not to say that they will be easy. When we think about the God of glory, we are dealing with deep and difficult matters. And this requires reverence, humility, diligence, and much prayer that the Lord would open our eyes to behold a glimpse of His glory by faith.

The Attributes of God (Part 3)

Everyone is attracted to beauty—for example, a gorgeous sunset. People will stop and watch and look at all of the varied colors and beautiful hues that are found as the sun is falling below the horizon. Others will stop and study a flower with all of its beautiful petals and the color and texture that it represents. You see beauty in a newborn baby, or in the masterpiece of a famous artist, looking at the detail of a painting that’s hanging in a museum. But some insist that beauty is in the eye of the beholder; that is, that beauty is always and only subjective. Now, while some matters of taste can vary between people, the Bible teaches us that there is an objective beauty; that God himself is the ultimate source, standard, and superlative display of true beauty.
