The Characteristics of God – Freshbrook Church Summer sermon series.
Who is God? Surely that question is as important as whether God exists! If he does, then what is he like? Can we trust and rely on him? The Bible answers those questions with a resounding yes. On the one hand, that’s because it presents to us an uncreated and self-existent God – a God who needs nothing from his creation and is completely sovereign over it. As a result, he is completely free to work out his loving purposes in creation without being changed, thwarted or exhausted in the process. On the other hand, as already hinted, this God is supremely good. Love is part of his very nature, because this one God has always existed as three persons in perfect, joyful communion. And he pours out his love and goodness upon his creatures in his gracious, just and faithful dealings with them. So we have a God who is wholly unlike us in some ways, but has made us a little like himself in other ways. He is holy – set apart – yet committed to making his people holy too, through Jesus Christ, who perfectly bridges the gap between creator and creature. The aim of this sermon series is to highlight these key attributes of God, reassuring us that the Almighty is utterly good, trustworthy and dependable – always!
Over the summer we’ll be looking at these characteristics of God. We’ll also be hearing from some of our mission partners as they share about their work. We invite you to join with us when you can. If you miss a week or two for a summer holiday the series will be on our YouTube channel with our other weekly services here: https://www.youtube.com//streams
