Josh Strelecki, Pastor-Teacher, explains that while humanity cannot discover God on its own, God has graciously revealed Himself through both creation (general revelation) and Scripture (special revelation). From Isaiah 46, he emphasizes that God alone is God—there is none else and none like Him—who declares the end from the beginning and has both the intention and the power to bring His counsel to pass. Strelecki underscores how Scripture unveils God’s eternal purpose in Christ from before the world began through eternity future, and urges believers not to take this revelation for granted but to “get into the Book,” learn God well, believe what He says, and order their lives accordingly.

Strelecki then turns to God’s existence and attributes, showing from passages like Psalms, Romans, and Isaiah that denying God is the height of folly, even as creation, human dependence, and the order of the world all testify to a first cause and sustaining Creator. He highlights God’s incommunicable attributes—His eternity (from everlasting to everlasting) and aseity (self-existence, “I AM THAT I AM”)—as realities that set God utterly apart from idols and from His creatures, and yet this high and lofty One chooses to dwell with the humble and contrite. He closes by pointing to Christ as the perfect image of the invisible God, through whom believers not only come to know God savingly, but are also transformed into His likeness in those communicable attributes that reflect the family resemblance to their Creator.
