Assignment:
- Read The Attributes of God, Chapter 1, "God's Infinitude"
- Read through the "Personal Study" portion of the Study Guide, Session 2, which goes with Chapter 1, "God's Infinitude" (pages 9-14)
- OPTIONAL: Read through the "Lesson Plan - Group Study" portion of the Study Guide, Session 2 (pages 14-16).
- We will be discussing the entire chapter (and looking at some point in the personal study), and then we'll go through the Group Study portion together.
Some quotes that caught my attention:
From Chapter 1, Page 5:
"There is nothing boundless but God and nothing infinite but God. God is self-existent and absolute; everything else is contingent and relative"
From Chapter 1, Page 3:
"The Church will come out of her doldrums when we find out that salvation is not a lightbulb only, that it is not an insurance policy against hell only, but that it is a gateway into God and that God is all that we would have and desire."
From the Personal Study section of the study guide, Page 14:
"He invites us into relationship with Him. He is the God with whom we will never become bored, the God whom we can know, but will never reach the end of. This is the God we worship."
If you don't have the book yet, I will have copies of Chapter 1 and the accompanying Session 2 of the study guide at church service Sunday, March 17th.
