There are four definitions of God in the Bible. Since God cannot be defined, they are incomplete. However, they do throw light upon the nature of God. They are:

1) God is love (1 John 4:8) - This is the nature of God in His divine compassion.
2) God is light (1 John 1:5) - This is the nature of God in His divine character. (In Him there is no darkness)
3) God is a consuming fire (Heb 12:29) - This is the nature of God in His divine holiness.
4) God is spirit (John 4:24) - This is the nature of God in His divine essence.
