The Incomprehensible God, Part 1
We can know God and, as believers, we do know God. But Christians have long used the language of "incomprehensibility" to express the truth that it is impossible for us, as finite creatures, to fully grasp the infinite God; we can't know God as he knows himself; we can't know and comprehend all that he is. It's more than we could expect or manage; and it's more than God has given us to know.
The Independent God, Part 2
Everything in this world draws its strength, integrity—its very existence—from something else. Everything, that is, except God himself. He truly is independent of all other things. He needs nothing for anything; he depends upon no one and no thing. He is entirely self-sufficient.

The Unchanging God, Part 2
As human beings, we are changing and declining daily; our world itself is changing and will not last. But against that rather depressing backdrop, the Psalmist proclaims the glorious truth that God himself does not change. The Lord is the Unchanging One. All else will change and decay and much will disappear. But the eternal God does not.

The Omnipotent God, Part 2
Who can understand the power of the Almighty God? None of us fully can. Our perception of the extent and greatness of his power is so limited—and it certainly is too small. Our aim in this message is simply to try and expand our view of the power of God and to move toward a more biblical proportion—to catch even a glimpse of his might from the pages of his Word.

The Eternal God, Part 2
Many of our difficulties in the Christian life stem from the fact that we don’t really know God as we ought to know him. Our view of God is too small—too domesticated—too much formed by personal opinion and cultural assumption—and not nearly enough formed by the teaching of the Scriptures, through which God has made himself known. We begin this new series on the eternity of God—the truth that God in his being transcends time and is uniquely eternal. This is a vital truth for us to explore.

Death Defeated
Jesus’ death and resurrection achieve the ultimate victory over the grave. Because he died and rose again, we who believe in him share in his victory.
