INTRODUCTION
START WITH SLIDE 1
Story of Travis and his son in the Garage:
My friend Travis loves spending time in the garage
In his free time he is fixing things around the house, fixing the car, and making excuses to use the power tools in the garage.
One day he was working on his old car.
He had all his tools out for this job, the lights are up, shining on the car, the jacks are all at work, It is a mess, but it is his mess
He goes to the back of the car which is poking out of the secondary garage door, when he steps on something, slipping, almost falling down.
He looks down to find his son’s toys.
His toy cars are all in a row,
his toy tools are spread out
It looks like a miniature version of what is happening in the garage.
At first he is angry, and calls for his son
His wife comes out at that same time asking what happened?
Dad says, “Maybe he wants to be a mechanic when he grows up.
The responds by saying, “No, he wants to be like you.”
Today we honor our Dad’s!
(Ask Dad’s to Raise their Hands)
-This morning we come as a body of believers, a family of God to honor our dads, daddy’s, papa’s, pops, old man… our fathers.
-As we take a moment today to give some love and attention to our dads, we can’t help but stop and think about our heavenly father.
- Today will be talking about God the Father, in his greatness, power, might, an eternal God that has no beginning or end.
A God that is personal, and loving.
Today we honor our God.
Let’s pray.
(Quick opening prayer)
Slide 2
- A survey was taken where they asked kids what was one thing they loved about their daddy’s.
Here are just a few quick answers that the kids shared:
Slide 3
Kids expressed how strong their daddy’s are.
They could pick them up, throw them to the sky, and open things.
Daddy is strong!
Slide 4
Daddy is a great protector.
When I am scared, I run to daddy.
Slide 5
When I fall down, he makes me feel better.
Dad’s have amazing attributes of safety, comfort, security, dedication.
It is a perfect example of how we as humans, have attributes of God the father.
Because we are made in His image.
Today we are going to be diving into God’s word.
Why?
Because in order to start this journey of understanding the character, the attributes and the uniqueness of God, we must know His word.
We must use the tool he has given to speak to us in order to understand who he is.
God is powerful, mighty, sovereign, just, and merciful.
God is personal, kind, Good and love.
let’s examen some of these truths of God this morning.
QUESTION: WHAT IS GOD LIKE?
SLIDE 6
God has attributes that display his divineness, and his nature.
God has attributes that only God possess’ .
God has attributes that we also have due to our creation in his likeness.
LETS START WITH INCOMMUNICABLE ATTRIBUTES
THE INCOMMUNICABLE ATTRIBUTES OF GOD:
SLIDE 7
God is Omnipresent: God is everywhere
God is not limited or confined with respect to physical space.
God’s presence cannot be spatially compressed or geographically confined.
In Acts, Paul insisted that God cannot dwell in idols or temples...
Don’t mistake this for panentheism, which proposes that God lives IN EVERYTHING.
The biblical testomony of God is that God exists everywhere, in creation while remaining distinct from creation.
2. God is Omnipotent: God is almighty, and he has all might and all power.
a. Gabriel tells Mary that nothing will be impossible with God (Luke 1:37
Matthew 19:26
Victory is declared in the gospel is contingent on a God whose intentions cannot be thwarted.
Paul says in Romans,
3. God is Omnicient: God is ALL-Knowing.
The absolute knowledge of God over all things is called divine omniscience
God knows the thoughts and feelings over every person all the time (psalms 44:21; Mark 2:8)
God knows all things - Past, present & Future - But God also knows all possibilities.
The extent of God’s knowledge is boundless, endless and God uses his knowledge PERFECTLY.
START WITH SLIDE 8
4. God is Eternal
With God, there is no beginning or end.
He is Alpha and Omega
God existed before the world:
God is the one who lives forever, and is immortal:
5. God is Immutable:
Divine immutability is the doctrine that God is changeless in his nature and character.
This is a beautiful notion in terms of our relationship with God through Christ, and is also a very serious notion.
God NEVER changes.
6. God is Omnibenevolent: The Goodness of God.
We sings songs like the Goodness of God, or old classics like God is so good, however, what does that mean?
The Goodness of creation derives from the goodness of the Creator himself
THE COMMUNICABLE ATTRIBUTES OF GOD:
SLIDE 9
Personal - Yes God is light, and an all consuming fire, But those adjectives primarily designate God’s goodness and power.
God is an intimately relational being, a triune being no less, subsisting as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
That there are personal relationships within the Godhead means that relationality is essential for what it means for God to be God.
God exists as persons in loving communion with each other, who in eternity past decided to share the Godhead’s internal love outwardly with their creation.
God’s relationships outside of himself are normally expressed in covenantal terms.
God has a covenant with creation (Gen 9:9–10), Abraham (Gen 15:18), Israel (Exod 19:5), and the church (Matt 26:28)
2. Holiness: Holiness is the only attribute that is said of God three times with “holy, holy, holy” (Isa 6:3).
Yet God’s holiness is notoriously hard to define.
Several suggestions are often given, such as God’s moral uprightness, integrity, set-apartness, or transcendence.
In some respects, God’s holiness encompasses all of these, but somehow it is even more than all of them put together.
God’s holiness is both in his nature and in his character
thrice-holy is to say that Yahweh is the ultimate in the supernatural, extraordinary, uncreated, heavenly.”
In a second instance, holiness possesses a quasi-moral dimension.
The word is not merely a synonym for righteousness, but it is more of a near indescribable transcendent sanctity, perhaps an incandescent goodness, beauty, and purity.
