Today we are continuing our discussion through Romans 1:20 speaking about the Invisible Qualities of God. If you have missed any of our previous discussions they can be found on THE ROAD THROUGH ROMANS PAGE.
The verse in question is:
For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
What this verse says is that God’s invisible qualities, the things which cannot be seen or touched, His essence, can be thoroughly perceived by what God has made. Those invisible things have to do with His everlasting never fading power and they prove His Godhood.
A.W. Tozer explains that their are 18 characteristics that are revealed about God. They Are:
1.Wisdom
2. Infinitude
3. Sovereignty
4. Holiness
5. Trinity
6. Omniscience
7. Faithfulness
8. Love
9. Omnipotence
10. Self- existence
11. Self sufficiency
12. Justice
13. Immutability
14. Mercy
15.Eternal in nature
16. Goodness
17. Graciousness
18. Omnipresence
As you look at this list think of the creation we live in. How are these qualities of God reflected even in our fallen creation?
Since we have all the time in the world let’s spend some time discussing these qualities.
See you tomorrow 🙂
