Larger Catechism – Day 4 of Lent
Question 7: What
is God?
Answer: God is a
spirit, who in and of himself is infinite in being, glory, blessedness, and
perfection. He is all-sufficient,
eternal, unchangeable, beyond our full understanding, present everywhere,
almighty, knowing everything, completely wise, completely holy, completely
just, completely merciful and gracious, patient, and overflowing with goodness
and truth.
God is so far beyond what we as people can think, imagine
or comprehend! There is nothing that I
can write to clarify, amplify or shed any light on the Answer to Question 7 of
the Larger Catechism. I am not even
going to try.
There is a saying that summarized my thoughts on
Question7 and its Answer. The saying
that goes like this: “God is God, and I
am not!”
Note: Tomorrow is
Sunday. Sunday is for worship. The next post will be on Monday, the fifth
day of Lent.
