Firm Foundations Lesson 2 God Alone Memory verse: Psalm 90:2

Introduction Who is God?  What is God like?  How can we know Him? What God has said about Himself in His Word  Jeremiah 9:23-24 Knowing God is the most important thing we can do

God had no beginning Genesis 1:1 There was a beginning to all things Everything had a beginning, except God What was there before the beginning?  Universe?  Earth?  Angels?  Devil?  Plants?  Animals?  People? Everything had a beginning

Only God is eternal God had no beginning, will have no end  Man is born and dies Psalm 90:2  God did not have a beginning  Will have no end

God is a Trinity God is forever one God But…  Genesis 1:26 Who are they? Matthew 28:19  God the Father  God the Son  God the Holy Spirit Trinity: 3-in-one God is a trinity of 3 persons  Man is only 1 person

God is independent of everything Existed before all things Does not need earth  Air  Food  Water  Sun  Energy God needs nothing  Man needs all these things Psalm 147:5 Romans 11:33-34 God knows everything  Man needs to be taught Our needs  What if we had been born without parents?  What do our bodies need? God needs nothing!

God is Spirit He does not have a body like we do John 4:24  God does not have bodily needs God does not have a body  Man has a body God is a Trinity of 3 persons  Not a “force”

God is in all places at the same time God is everywhere Not “in everything”  Creator, separate from creation  Fills the universe Jeremiah 23:23-24  In all places  He’s everywhere at all times God is everywhere all the time  Man is only one place at a time Psalm 139:7-12  Can you hide from God?

God is sovereign God is beyond our understanding  Had no beginning and no end  Is three persons  Never in need of anything  Knows everything  Is Spirit  Everywhere at the same time Jeremiah 10:6 Sovereign  Ruler, supreme in power, chief, effective in the highest degree  Psalm 83:18: “most high over all the earth”  Isaiah 45:5: there is no other God but the Lord God is the highest authority  Man should be under God’s authority

God alone can tell us about the beginning Only God was there at the beginning God was there before the beginning of everything  Man was not there God gave the record of beginnings  In the Bible  Study in next lesson

Conclusion: God… Is greater than all Had no beginning Will have no end He is Trinity, three in one Needs nothing Has no bodily needs: He is Spirit Knows everything Is in all places at the same time
