So often we try to picture a God who is like us. As we go through life, our lives are filled with changes that we go through. But no so with God. God does not change. This understanding is a truth that has been confessed and affirmed throughout church history. Understanding this helps us to have a higher and more accurate view of God as well as providing great comfort. As Malchi 3:6 says, “For I the Lord do not change; therefore you, O children of Jacob, are not consumed." See you all on Zoom tonight at 7pm.

None Greater Ch 5: Simplicity
In our chapter this week, we consider the doctrine of Simplicity. As we studied Asiety last week, it naturally flows into the doctrine of simplicity. Since God is not dependent on anyone or anything, he is self-existent and simple. By saying God is simple is not to say he is easy going or not intelligent, but that he is not comprised of components but is one, he is simple. This deals with the question, does god have a parts? Read chapter 5 for our book study this week for our discussion for tonight's meeting on Zoom.
Here is a helpful podcast dealing with Simplicity:
