The Doctrine of Scripture

The Doctrine of Scripture

From the beginning, God has desired to make Himself known to His creation. God is Spirit and cannot be seen, and his transcendence is beyond our imagination. However, His imminence brings Him so close that He purposefully dwells within His children. Thus, He has chosen to reveal Himself both in the person of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit. These two are one and co-equal with the Father, yet they each reveal different aspects of God.
