[:en]SEEING GOD
“The Lord is slow to anger, abounding in love and forgiving sin and rebellion. Yet He does not leave the guilty unpunished” (Numbers 14:18)
The attributes of God are: Love, merciful, forgiving, faithful, eternal, omnipotent, omnipresence, omniscience, righteous, gracious, holy and just. When we see God, we must not exaggerate one of His attributes and distort His real view. God declares Himself to be merciful and gracious, but He is also just in punishing the guilty (Ex. 34:6-7)
Let us avoid protraying God as having only our favorite attiritutes. We worship God, not just what we like but who He really is. – (Julie Ackerman Link)[:]
