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.

When God says in the Bible that natural, unconverted men are dead in trespasses and sins, many people find themselves puzzled. They may respond by saying, “I don’t feel dead, I don’t seem dead. Look at me blink and eat and run and so on.” The problem lies in their failure to recognize that men have both a body and a soul. Their body can be alive and active, while simultaneously their soul can be dead. Then what are the indications that a person’s soul is dead in sin? Well, the easiest thing is to think in terms of the parallel with the body. Those who are spiritually dead cannot see the light of God’s truth.
