THE CENTRAL QUESTION

Who is the God
who has spoken?

This volume receives God as He reveals Himself—living, holy, eternal, sovereign, faithful, and glorious.

Having established Scripture as the governing authority, Volume 2 asks who the God of Scripture is. It traces His names, being, attributes, works, eternal purpose, triune life, order, promises, and glory, allowing the fullness of His character to guard every doctrine that follows.

“I AM THAT I AM.”— Exodus 3:14

THE DOCTRINAL BURDEN

01

God reveals who He is

God must be known through His names and self-revelation, never reduced to human likeness or imagination.

02

God is holy and perfect

His justice, truth, love, mercy, patience, wrath, goodness, wisdom, knowledge, and power belong to one undivided character.

03

God rules all His works

Creation, providence, judgment, salvation, and history unfold beneath His sovereign and eternal purpose.

04

God is triune

The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are distinct Persons who share the one divine being and work in perfect unity.
