The Highway Forums Announcements What's New on The Highway website? "The True God" by James Montgomery Boice

It is evident that we need more than a theoretical knowledge of God. Yet we can know God only as he reveals himself to us in the Scriptures, and we cannot know the Scriptures until we are willing to be changed by them. Knowledge of God occurs only when we also know our deep spiritual need and when we are receptive to God’s gracious provision for our need through the work of Christ and the application of that work to us by God’s Spirit.

Having established this base, we nevertheless come back to the question of God himself and we ask, “But who is God? Who is this one who reveals himself in Scripture, in the person of Jesus Christ and through the Holy Spirit?” We may admit that a true knowledge of God must change us. We may be willing to be changed. But where do we begin?

In this article, James Boice presents some of the major attributes of God as He has revealed Himself in the Bible. He then briefly makes application of this knowledge of God to the area of true worship vs. idolatry. I am sure his non-technical style and presentation will be most refreshing to many of you on this profound subject.
