WTM SERIES ON THE GODHEAD

INTRODUCTION

You are welcome to Insights from God's Word, a Bible Study Programme that is committed to sharing God's Word by allowing the Bible to speak for itself.

Friends, we greet you in the name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

In this study, we bring you the introduction to our series on the Godhead. The Godhead is one of the popular topics in Scripture which has generated a lot of debates and controversies in Christendom over the years. In fact, several theories have been formulated in an attempt to explain or search out the Creator God.

The Bible however makes it clear that this topic is shrouded in mystery and cannot be fully understood. From the apostle Paul we read the following in relation to this point: "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness" (1 Timothy 3:16). In the book of Job, God Himself settled the issue with the following strong words: "11:7 Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?

11:8 It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know?

11:9 The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea."

(Job 11:7-9)
Beloved, the passages above are clear. We cannot fully understand the totality of the ways of God and His Being; more especially, in our fallen deplorable state. However, the Bible does not also leave us with scanty or no information about God. In fact, there is so much that the Bible reveals about the Creator God and His nature. In this series, we will allow the Spirit of God to lead us as we attempt to explain a concept that is so high and lofty, and beyond the wisdom of even unfallen beings. The entire series is dubbed: The Godhead. The topics in this Special Series of Bible Study are as follows:

1) The Godhead

2) God the Father

3) God the Son

4) The God-Man
