God Is All-Powerful

Section 1: God Week 1: God Is Great Day 4: God Is All-Powerful Eph. 3:14-20 Theologians like to say God is omnipotent. That’s just a fancy way of saying God is all-powerful. Oddly, when we say that, we don’t actually mean he can do absolutely everything. There are, in fact, certain things God can’t do. He cannot lie, for example (Titus 1:2).

Section 1: God Week 1: God Is Great Day 3: God Is All-Knowing Ps. 139 Theologians often say God is omniscient, which means he knows everything.

The question is: are our ideas about God accurate? That’s a particularly important question for Christians. We love and serve God. At some point though, if our view of God sufficiently misses the mark, we’re really loving and serving another god. That’s not a matter to take lightly. So…
