    Study Notes

    The Greatness of God

    • God has a directive will, which is what He brings to pass, and a permissive will, which allows events to take place.
    • God permitted sin to enter the world, but did not direct it, and He permits humans to sin, giving them the option to choose right or wrong.
    • God's presence is infinite, and He is omnipresent, meaning He can be everywhere at any time.

    Attributes of God

    • God's attributes are both transcendent (outside of human understanding and grasp) and immanent (present and always near us).
    • God's attributes include:
      • Omnipotence: all-powerful, with power over all things, and able to do anything.
      • Omnipresence: everywhere at all times, with His presence in every place and every time.
      • Omniscience: all-knowing, aware of everything, including the past and future, with no limitation to His knowledge.
      • Eternity: lasting forever.
