God Attribute, 56

 ~ God Is The Source Of Life ~

 

This Series  ~  This series of posts looks at some of the many attributes of God.  Generally, we move in alphabetical order.

 

Introduction  ~  “When Peter saw this, he said to them: ‘Men of Israel, why does this surprise you?  Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?  The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus.  You handed him over to be killed, and you disowned him before Pilate, though he had decided to let him go.  You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you.  You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead” (Acts 3:12-15 niv).

 

Scripture  ~  Jesus said, “I am the bread of life” (John 6:35b, 48).

 

“I [Jesus Christ] will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts” (Revelation 21:6b).

 

“‘Come!’  And let him who thirsts come.  Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely” (Revelation 22:17b).

 

Comment  ~  “He [Jesus Christ] is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.  For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers.  All things were created through Him and for Him.  And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist” (Colossians 1:15-18).
