“God is…”

Over the years I have heard some strange definitions of who God is. I believe these contradictory definitions cause doubt and confusion. I think it’s best to let God’s word define who God is so I copied every verse containing the words “God is” to allow God to define Himself. I hope these verses strengthen your faith. (Feel free to copy this page if you’d like).

  16. Thank you for your wonderful post! Knowing God is everything. I want to recommend a CD about the names of God that complements your post. It’s called “I AM: 365 Names of God” by John Paul Jackson and Graham Ord. Graham Ord provides the background music while John Paul Jackson speaks the names of God. If I could only have one CD in the world, this would be the one. Hearing the names of God will take you into the realm of the Almighty where “nothing is too difficult for God.”

    The CD with music and names of God combined is rarely on Amazon. The best place to get the CD is from John Paul Jackson’s Web site: http://www.streamsministries.com. God bless you.
