Bible sayings about God

To get to know who God is and what exactly is being said about Him, we may well depend on what is written in the Holy Scriptures or the Bible.

If we are talking here about God, we mean the Creator God who is the God of gods and may be called as One True God we all must recognise as such. The works of creation provide evidence of the existence of an intelligent God Who created everything and directs everything. The Elohim Hashem Jehovah, the True God, is Almighty and All-Knowing. It is important to know his name and use it. According to the Holy Scriptures or the Bible there are other creatures, including angels and people called god. Among those gods there are people in high positions [like Pharaoh, men of God (like Moses), "gods"] (John 10:34) but also false gods (1 Corinthians 8: 5; Jeremiah 10: 14-15) or creatures that are wrongly considered to be highly regarded and worshipped (like idols). However worship belongs to the One True God. Worthless or false gods are powerless to help worshippers. This only the Supreme God is capable of doing so. (Habakkuk 2:18; Jeremiah 14:22)

Jehovah Himself is Justice and not the cause of wickedness. (Psalm 145: 17; Revelation of the Apostles 15: 3). The Created human being is made in the image of God and endowed with freedom of choice. (Genesis 1: 26-27; Genesis 4: 6-7; Genesis 5: 3; Genesis 9: 6; Joshua 25:15; Acts 13:48)
