1 God, The Father

2 God is… Holy because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:16 Merciful I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. Romans 12:1

3 God is… Faithful God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 Corinthians 1:9

4 Qualities of God Omnipotent O Lord God of hosts, Who is mighty like You, O Lord? Your faithfulness also surrounds You. Psalms 89:8

5 Qualities of God Omniscient Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. Romans 8:27

6 Qualities of God Omnipresent Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? 8 If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there. 9 If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, 10 Even there Your hand shall lead me, And Your right hand shall hold me. 11 If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall on me,” Even the night shall be light about me; 12 Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You, But the night shines as the day; The darkness and the light are both alike to You. Psalms 139:7-12

7 Qualities of God Immutable know that whatever God does, It shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, And nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him. Ecclesiastes 3:14

8 Qualities of God A Spirit God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” John 4:24

9 God’s Love & Man’s Love Allowed man freedom of choice Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” Genesis 2:15-17

10 God’s Love & Man’s Love Provided salvation for fallen man though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered. 9 And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him, Hebrews 5:8-9

11 God’s Love & Man’s Love Provided eternal inheritance for us For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven, 2 Corinthians 5:1-2

12 God’s Love & Man’s Love Man Fears (respects) Him Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, For this is man's all. Ecclesiastes 12:13

13 God’s Love & Man’s Love Desiring Him & His Way Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled. Matthew 5:6

14 God’s Love & Man’s Love Trusting Him I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living. Psalms 27:13

15 The Results Forgiveness of Sins And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you. Ephesians 4:32

16 The Results Become His Children ​Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. 2 Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 1 John 3:1-2

17 The Results We will receive eternal salvation ​by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 2 Peter 1:4

18 Conclusion 1. God has many wonderful and interesting qualities. 2. The best one is His love for us. We should return that love to Him.
