Overview
A study guide on the attributes of God for Bible studies, Sunday school classes, college and career classes, and all those who want to know God better. Topics include: The danger of idolatry; the infinity of God; and the omni attributes of God.
Each of the sixteen chapters introduces an attribute of God, sets forth the orthodox position and alternative viewpoints, proceeds to defend the orthodox position from Scripture, and ends with a conclusion and discussion questions.

“A personal commitment to God in which you choose to worship and serve only Him.” (Pages 1–2)
“Human reason is to function as the servant of revelation and not its judge. Once man’s reason bows to the supremacy of God’s Reason, then it is set free to be what God intended it to be.” (Page 11)
“Human reason is not only finite but also corrupted and twisted by sin” (Page 9)
“Divine sovereignty means that God is in control of this universe and that there is no such thing as chance or luck. Everything has a divine purpose and fits in with God’s plan of the ages which we call ‘history’ or ‘His-story.’ It means that He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords and that nothing happens in this world but must first pass through His will.” (Page 127)
“The purpose of prayer is not to inform God of what we need as if He were ignorant. No, the purpose of prayer is to deepen our trust and confidence in God. Prayer reminds us of the promises and provisions of God. It enables us to become mighty in faith.” (Page 116)

It would be helpful to see some discussion questions, since this looks like a small-group resource. Also, the sample pages are blurry and difficult to read.
