NO COMPARISON
Episode 25, Jun 01, 06:15 AM
In this episode, we explore the concept of God’s greatness and our dependence on Him from a biblical perspective.
- God’s Greatness: We start by discussing the Anselmian concept of God as the greatest conceivable being1. If you could think of something greater than God, then that would be God1. This idea underscores the incomparable greatness of God1.
- God’s Self-Existence: We delve into the doctrine of divine aseity, which affirms that God is a self-existent being2. God doesn’t depend upon anything else for His existence2. If everything else were to disappear, God would still be there2.
- Our Dependence on God: We reflect on the idea that human beings are created to know and depend on God1. The highest science, the loftiest speculation, the mightiest philosophy, which can ever engage the attention of a child of God, is the name, the nature, the person, the work, the doings, and the existence of the great God whom he calls his Father1.
- Finding Peace in God: We discuss how turning our worries and anxieties over to God can bring peace and contentment1. The knowledge of God is really what life is all about1.
- Conclusion: We conclude the episode by reinforcing the idea that there is no comparison to God’s greatness and that our ultimate dependence should be on Him
