The Christian Definition of God.
From the Westminster Larger Catechism
*** God is a Spirit, in and of Himself infinite
in being, glory, blessedness, and perfection; all-sufficient, eternal,
unchangeable, incomprehensible, everywhere present, almighty, knowing all
things, most wise, most holy, most just, most merciful and gracious,
long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth.
*** There is but one only, the living and true
God.
*** There are three persons in the Godhead, the
Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one true, eternal God,
the same in substance, equal in power and glory; although distinguished by Their
personal properties.
*** It is proper to the Father to beget the Son,
and to the Son to be begotten of the Father, and to the Holy Spirit to proceed
from the Father and the Son from all eternity.
*** The Scriptures manifest that the Son and the
Holy Spirit are God equal with the Father, ascribing unto Them such names,
attributes, works, and worship, as are proper to God only.
******************************
Since it is impossible for any human to know God solely through his own efforts
and abilities, we must depend upon God to reveal Himself.
Without revelation, there is no possibility of knowing God or knowing Any Truth
at all.
There is only one person who has claimed identity
with the Truth, and that is Jesus Christ, when He said, I AM THE TRUTH (John
14:6). He demonstrated His power over death and sin through His life, death and
resurrection.
> Jesus Christ is the Truth.
> Truth is God.
therefore
JESUS CHRIST IS GOD.
This is the sole True proposition that is available to humans at
the present time.
The knowing of this Truth is everlasting life.
(John 17:3)
… the truth came through Jesus Christ.
John 1:17
