~ God Is Real ~

 

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

 

Introduction ~ God is not only a real God, but also a transparent (open) God – allowing us to know Him on a personal basis. But the deeper aspect of God being really God is in His own statement “I AM.”

 

Scripture ~ “And God said to Moses, ‘I AM WHO I AM.’ And He said, ‘Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, “I AM has sent me to you”.’ Moreover, God said to Moses, ‘Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: “The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations”’” (Exodus 3:14-15).

 

“Jesus said to them, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM’” (John 8:58).

 

Comment ~ The “I AM” statements have a number of deep theological meanings. It includes many important realities of Who God is. Here are just a few:

 

Eternal existence: God is not limited by any external conditions. He is the source of all existence and is not dependent on anything or anyone. 

 

Outside of Time / Not Created: God is not a created being. 

 

Indescribable: God cannot be defined by words or limited by concepts. 

 

Trustworthy: God is dependable and faithful, and He desires the trust of His people. 

 

Self-existent: God is the self-existent One, and He is not defined by human language or able to be fully understood by humans.
