Organic Discipleship - Appendix 6: What is God Like?

Dennis McCallum and Gary DeLashmutt
While we can never fully understand the infinite God, he has revealed important points about his character. Understanding the character of God is important. These features of God, or attributes of God, are all eternal and coequal. We should never stress one attribute of God at the expense of another. Anything we say about God should not contradict any of these attributes. You can study each attribute and read the verses, considering how theologians get these attributes from the passages listed. Then ask how each particular attribute might apply to daily Christian living. Think how an attribute of God might affect your prayer life, your ministry, your attitudes toward him, etc.

Pleasing People vs. Pleasing God

Bret McCallum
In light of the gospel, our goal in life should be to please God. Sadly, because God is unseen, many place more weight on pleasing others than on pleasing God. When it comes to relating to others, we do not want to be rude, tactless or careless, especially towards non-believers who we hope to influence with the gospel. Many papers could be written to people who struggle with such sins.
