God Attribute, 143

 

~ Majesty ~

 

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

 

Introduction ~ Theologians differentiate between General Revelation [of God] and Special Revelation [from God]. Primary examples are the creation itself (General Revelation – all can see] and the Word of God [man needs to be willing to open their spiritual eyes to see].

 

Scripture ~ “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man — and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things” (Romans 1:18-23).

 

Questions ~ Why do peach trees never produce apples? Why dogs not breed with cats? Who put an entire life system in a mosquito (or the tiny “no-see-ems”)? Why is mankind (“created in the image of God”) the only thing on earth that creates new things such as airplanes or computers? Why are scientists not able to point to any examples of something mutating upwards (vs. always downward such as cancer)? Is it possible there really was and is a Creator?
