God has been revealing himself within the whole process of biblical history. His character is not presented as a series of abstract ideas, such as holiness, omnipotence, righteousness and so on. Rather, God reveals himself in the midst of his deeds that he himself interprets by his Word. From his activity as creator, judge, covenant-maker and redeemer, we learn the meaning of words like holy, almighty and righteous as they apply to God.

Hey guys! Here are the details for the course we’re doing this term which starts next Friday night. See you all at youth this Friday for a once-off special!:)
