THE INCOMMUNICABLE NATURES OF GOD: A BIBLICAL UNDERSTANDING

Abstract

God has some basic attributes that make Him different from angels,
human beings and all others created beings. There are six divine attributes
which belong to God Himself and cannot be communicable to other being. They
are: Omnipresence, Omniscience, Omnipotence, Immutability, Self existence,
and Eternal. The result of this study shows that God is present everywhere in
His creation. The unchangeable nature of God guarantees that what He has
proposed will be fulfilled by Him, for it is impossible for Him to lie; The ever
present nature of God assures His people of His continued accompaniment to be
their “help and shield;” His eternal and all-powerful nature assure His people of
His power to raise the dead from the graves and to give them eternal life, that
they will never die; The all-knowing, all-powerful, ever-present , unchangeable,
and eternal natures of God assure His people of their present needs and of their
welfare in the world to come; Only “he who believes in the Son has eternal life;
but he who does not obey the Son, shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides
on him.
