God 101: Who is the Real God? Do you know Him?

There is only one God and yes, He created everything… But besides being our Creator, who is God? How does He express Himself to us? Do you know Him?

He is:
A Father; God
A Person; Jesus
A Spirit; Holy Spirit

This is the true God and He presents Himself to us in many ways for our understanding and for His purposes.
There is one God, but He manifests Himself in three ways as He told us in His Holy Word, the Bible
(see charts below)
These are the attributes and characteristics of God:
Loving, joy-giving, peace-giving, patient, kind, good, gentle, self-controlled.
God created all things, including nature, but God is not nature.
God created the natural, but exists and operates in the supernatural and also inside of all Believers.
The Bible is not God, but it is the God inspired Word, full of the words of Jesus, which are powerful and existed before the beginning of time. Although we do not worship the Bible and we realize it is not God, God gave His Word (the Bible) as a gift to us to give us information about the world, Himself, how we got here, how the world got here, all aspects of creation, and everything we need to do to live a successful/peaceful life! It was relevant then and it continues to be relevant to the current world today. It is also relevant for the future and transcends past, present and future. It tells of things in the past, things for today and what is to come in the future.

WHAT IS GOD LIKE? Galatians 5: 22-23 NIV : But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
