What, or who, is God?
This was the first topic of Christian systematic theology.
This doctrine attempted to answer the following questions:
Can God be known at all? If so, how?
Can God be described?
Are there qualities or attributes, which God must possess in
order to be God? If so, what are they?
Early Christian theologians identified the following as
attributes of God:
Benevolence
Immateriality
Omnipotence
Eternity
Immutability
Omnipresence
Goodness
Infinity
Omniscience
Please select one of the attributes above to discuss.
In your initial posting, address the following questions:
What is this attribute? How does it describe God?
Are there any problems associated with this attribute?
Which other attributes are compatible with this attribute? Why
or why not?
