How would you answer? Well, maybe some rambling thoughts will challenge your thinking:
- Friday night at the Breakout Youth Conference in the Akron area the topic was “God is”.
- Our church’s youth director, Josh Miller, brought the message out of Genesis 1 focusing on many of God’s qualities. It excites me to see God-given speaking talent in a young(er) guy.
- This isn’t Josh Miller is, this is God is.
- So who is God? How long would you be able to hold a conversation about who you thought God to be and why you thought that way about His being?
- What Scriptures would work their way into your conversation?
- Would you know the difference between attributes belonging solely to God (incommunicable) and those also seen or experienced in humans (communicable)?
- See this article for a great summary and further thinking.
- In your view, is God manageable? If so, that can cause problems.
- As you think about who God is, do you feel smaller? Does all this thinking drive you to worship as a proper response? If so, your soul is aligning with God.
- No application, no step by step process to follow.
- Just a challenge to think. Dwell. Meditate. About who God is.
- So if I asked you: who is God? What would you say?
