The Devotional Implications of Christian Cosmology
What, what, we’re going to do this morning is going to be, a little bit of, what I’d like to keep on doing, as we get into the New year; to have a quite a bit more discussion. It was pretty intentional on my part to lay a foundation of biblical authority and some of the prologue on the first things of theology and then theology proper. And so the lecture format was pretty, pretty, intentional, on my part. And…
The Apologetic Implications of Christian Cosmology
Father want to thank you for your truth. We thank you for what we’ve learned over the year about you, about your absolute attributes, the attributes of your greatness, that you are immortal spirit, you are triune person. You are our creator and we thank you for the things that we’ve learned. And we just ask that you would help us to take those truths into our day-to-day life and our conversations with others. I pray that the truths that…
The Attributes of God’s Greatness: God the Creator, Part 5
Father, thank you so much for the morning. Thank you for these men you’ve brought here and we ask that you would help us once again to speak clearly about you, precisely. Please help us to understand what you’ve revealed in your word about you and about the creation week, especially how you created, designed us, what you created us for.

The Attributes of God’s Greatness: God the Creator, Part 4
Father, thank you for this morning. And so we get back into the groove, the routine of studying, you, theology as men. We thank you for the opportunity to do that. We thank you for all the men who’ve turned out. And we just ask the Lord that you would bless us by the, the, careful study and observation of your word, that we would come to know you as you really are. I pray that as we do know…
The Attributes of God’s Greatness: God the Creator, Part 3
Okay. So we’re continuing the study of theology proper, looking carefully at what’s revealed in God the Creator. We’ve talked about God being immortal spirit, triune person, God the creator. And we’re just, we are wanting to just walk through the text in Genesis 1. Observe what’s there, see what we can infer and understand from now. We, there’s a lot we, more we can say but we’re really wanting to restrict ourselves in our, in our, observations to; What…
The Attributes of God’s Greatness: God the Creator, Part 2
Okay. We have covered the first and second subheadings under the first major category of theology proper. We talked about the greatness of God and, the, those subheadings under the greatness of God, or God the immortal spirit, and God the triune person. And now we’re looking at that third subheading which we started, started last time, God the creator. So we said God is immortal spirit, God is triune person, and God is creator. In the beginning. “In the…
The Attributes of God’s Greatness: God the Creator, Part 1
So we have covered the first and second subheadings under the first major category of theology proper, on the greatness of God, and the subheadings are God the immortal spirit. And last time we covered God the Triune person. Now we’re going to look at a third subheading, God the Creator. And this is going to take us a few, a few weeks to get through because there’s a lot here. As we’ve talked about before, the creation is kind…
The Attributes of God’s Greatness: God the Trinity
As you know, we finished the first subheading under the first major category of theology proper; God’s greatness and immortal spirit. I’d originally intended to get into a second subheading under God’s greatness called God the Creator, but I said, I decided to make that the third subheading and insert something in between. I debated whether or not to deal with the Trinity under the God creator category. Since we come to know God’s triune personality through creation, but I’ve…
Knowing and Loving the Immortal Spirit
Last time we finished the first subheading under the first major category of theology proper that we’re calling God’s greatness, and we talked about God as immortal spirit. You guys remember what God’s immortal spirit involves, as we were talking about that doctrine. Okay, don’t worry because we’ll review it. Alright? I, I, had intended today to start into the second subheading under God’s greatness, which is, God as the creator. But I’m, I don’t want to do that. I’m…
Answering the Hard Questions About Immutability
We talked about God as in his greatness, as immortal spirit. As in immortal Spirit God is life giving. He is one. So, we talked about a lot of, you know, the doctrines of obviously monotheism, but also simplicity; in that doctrine of God being one and then God being unchanging; that all comes out of the fact that God is immortal spirit. So God does not change. His unchangeableness is manifest in a couple of doctrines that are related,…
