Who is God? Pastor Drew Webb explores one of the most important questions in Christian theology by examining what the Bible reveals about God the Father. Scripture presents God as the eternal, self-existent Creator who exists as the Trinity one God in the three Persons of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. From Genesis to Revelation, God reveals Himself as the great "I AM," the One who has no beginning or end and who stands above all creation as the source of life, truth, and purpose.
The Bible not only reveals who God is but also what God is like. God's character is marked by perfect holiness, unwavering justice, and steadfast love. His holiness sets Him apart from everything else in creation and calls believers to pursue lives that reflect His righteousness. His justice ensures that evil, sin, and wrongdoing are not ignored, while His love is demonstrated through His mercy, grace, patience, and faithfulness. Rather than existing in tension with one another, God's holiness, justice, and love work together in perfect harmony, revealing His flawless nature and His desire for a relationship with humanity.
God's works flow directly from His character. He created and sustains the universe, exercises sovereign authority over history, and accomplishes salvation through His redemptive plan. The Christian gospel begins with God's initiative to draw people to Himself, offer forgiveness through Jesus Christ, and bring spiritual life to those who trust in Him. Whether you are exploring Christianity for the first time or seeking a deeper understanding of biblical doctrine, this study provides a clear introduction to who God is, what God is like, and how God works in creation and salvation.
