God is: &quot;In the beginning God.&quot; This is the statement of Genesis 1. &quot;He that cometh to God must believe that He is.&quot; This is the statement of Hebrews 11.<\/p>\n<p>Few men are atheists. Some, however, are pantheistic&#8211;they believe in an immaterial God, pervading nature&#8211;a God that is a mere force. However, most men, saints and sinners, concede that there is a personal God.<\/p>\n<p>2. God is inherently holy. &quot;Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of Hosts,&quot; is the angelic acclaim, as recorded in Isaiah 6. The fact of God&apos;s inherent holiness, justice, and love, does not need to be argued. All who believe in the God of the Bible, believe in His all-glorious attributes.<\/p>\n<p>3. God is communicatively righteous. &quot;The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,&quot; is the voice of Exodus 34.<\/p>\n<p>God&apos;s holiness refers particularly to an attribute which lies within Himself; His righteousness refers particularly to His acts towards others. God&apos;s righteousness assures every man, good or bad, of perfect justice. God keeps mercy for thousands, but He will by no means clear the guilty.<\/p>\n<p>Autor: R.E.
