Episode Details

This week we cover the final section in our study on God, Paper 5 - God's Relation of the Individual, Section 6 - The God of Personality. In this wonderful study of God, we have learned that God has many names in the Universe of Universes, but on most worlds "God is generally known by some name indicative of personal relationship, tender affection, and fatherly devotion." We've learned that "God is infinitely more than reality idealized or the universe personalized." And that "God is not simply the supreme desire of man, the mortal quest objectified." In addition, we discovered that "the true concept of the reality of God is reasonable to logic, plausible to philosophy, essential to religion, and indispensable to any hope of personality survival." We've marveled to think of God as "a universal spirit" and "the universal person."  In fact, "Without God and except for his great and central person, there would be no personality throughout all the vast universe of universes. God is personality."  But how amazing to learn that "the love of God is an intelligent and farseeing parental affection." "God is literally and eternally present in his universe of universes" "God is inherently kind, naturally compassionate, and everlastingly merciful." "God is never wrathful, vengeful, or angry." "God is revealed throughout the cosmos, but the cosmos can never contain or encompass the entirety of the infinity of God." "God is unlimited in power, divine in nature, final in will, infinite in attributes, eternal in wisdom, and absolute in reality." This study revealed wonderful things about God! We hope you'll join us for this final week.
