THE MYSTERY OF GOD
Part 2
The LORD GOD
ALMIGHTY is The CREATOR of the universe, the world, and everything in it. He created man
in His own Image. He exists in ETERNITY with divine Nature and Character.
His
attributes include: Love, Righteousness, Peace, Joy, Justice, Mercy, Truth,
Faithfulness et cetera. He is presented as King, Judge, and Shepherd. He binds
Himself by Covenants with His people.
He
has a personal appearance, like man do, and He is proactive—being in very
nature GOD ALMIGHTY. As well, He can react to a situation—For instance; He
could be angry and even jealous.
God's
Plan—His secret design; His hidden purpose, is revealed only to His people—His
servants, and the prophets. Intellectuals and experts in sciences cannot know
it, in spite of all their efforts to research, and find out the true meaning of
life.
They
are unable to search-out "the scheme of things."
The
accomplishment of His Will can only be availed through His sons. That is why
the unveiling of mysteries are only announced to His servants the prophets.
The Wisdom
of God is a Mystery. But; this mystery has been unveiled to us by His Spirit.
Though there are mysteries that The
LORD our God has unveiled to us, there are secrets He has not revealed unto us.
Also, God chooses to reveal some things to His people, and some other things to
kings, and rulers.
The
knowledge of GOD is given only to those who fear Him. Also, His manifest
Presence is only revealed to His people not to every person. He is truly
omnipresent—present everywhere at the same time, but, His manifest Presence is
not revealed everywhere, or to every human person.
The FATHER of the GOD
Family is The HEAD—The Lawgiver—The Creator. Yet He created everything through
JESUS CHRIST (Eph.3:9).
Christ carried out
The Father's orders, by speaking, as The Father had directed. In the creation,
"He spoke, and it was done" (Psa.33:9, Gen.1:3).
The Holy
Spirit
is The Power that produced what He Commanded (Gen.1:2). Thus, in John 1:3,
"All things were made by Him"—by The Logos (The Word), who is Jesus
Christ (verse 14).
Faith in the One True GOD has become basic to the proclamation of
Christianity. The Character of GOD The Father and Christ The Son is that of
spiritual Holiness, Righteousness and absolute Perfection. His Character is
summed up in the one word LOVE.
GOD’S
inherent Nature is LOVE, PEACE, JUSTICE, MERCY, HAPPINESS and JOY radiating
toward those He has created!
When
He deals with us, He is Righteous, Faithful, Just, Merciful, Loving and
Compassionate.
