Who is GOD?

The true GOD is the Creator of all things. The Bible calls Him the "King of eternity," meaning that He had no beginning and will never have an end. (Revelation 15:3) Since GOD is the Source of life, we should worship only Him.- Read Revelation 4:11.



No one has ever seen GOD because He is a Spirit, which means that He is a higher form of life than the physical creatures who live on earth. (John 1:18; 4:24) GOD's personality is revealed in the things He has made. For example, when we contemplate the design and variety of fruits and flowers, we discern GOD's love and wisdom. The vastness of the universe tells us of GOD's power.- Read Romans 1:20. We can learn even more about GOD's personality from the Bible. For example, it tells us what GOD likes and what He does not like, how He treats people, and how He reacts in different situations.- Read Psalm 103:7-10.

The personality of GOD can also be known through His Son JESUS CHRIST; by Whom we are all saved. 'For GOD so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life'. (John 3:16) GOD is love.

GOD is our Creator and our Heavenly Father. Our human minds cannot begin to comprehend the majesty of GOD. Here below are many of the characteristics which describe GOD.
