Hello Brenda, First, I think it important to define what you're asking. Religion, in general is man's attempt to merit a favorable standing before god. There are many "religions", but only one True God! That God has revealed Himself to us through His Holy Word, the Bible. I tell people with all seriousness when asked this question, that "I have no religion"- because I don't! I have a relationship with the Living God, the Lord Jesus Christ! Christianity finds it's source in the Godhead- God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. It's authority comes from Jehovah! The Bible reveals to us the things of God, principally: 1. (Who) or What is God? God is Spirit, (John 4:24) infinite, (Job 11:7) eternal, (Psalm 90:2; 1 Timothy 1:17) and unchangeable (James 1:17) in his being, (Ezekiel 3:14) wisdom, power, (Psalms 147:5) holiness, (Revelation 4:8) justice, goodness and truth. (Ezekiel 34:6,7) 2. There is only One God: There is but one only, (Deuteronomy 6:4) the living and true God. (Jeremiah 10:10) 3. How many persons are there in the Godhead? There are three persons in the Godhead, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one God, the same in essence, equal in power and glory. (1 John 5:7; Matthew 28:19) 4. What is the work of creation? The work of creation is God’s making all things (Genesis 1:1) of nothing, by the Word of his power, (Hebrews 11:3) in six normal consecutive days, (Ezekiel 20:11) and all very good. (Genesis 1:31) 5. How did God create man? God created man, male and female, after his own image, (Genesis 1:27) in knowledge, righteousness, and holiness (Colossians 3:10; Ephesians 4:24) with dominion over the creatures. (Genesis 1:28) 6. What are God’s works of providence? God’s works of providence are his most holy, (Psalm 145:17) wise, (Isaiah 28:29) and powerful, (Hebrews 1:3) preserving and governing all his creatures, and all their actions. (Psalm 103:19; Matthew 10:29) [A Puritan Cathecism- CH Spurgeon, 1855] As Moses and the children of Israel exclaimed to the Lord, "Who is like You, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like You, glorious in holiness, Fearful in praises, doing wonders? (Ex. 15:11) I trust this will help to answer your question. BradK |
