SOME QUALITIES EXCLUSIVE TO OUR LORD

             (His qualities are unequaled, as is all of God.)
Eminent: Someone on the verge, cutting edge or well 
                 known.
Eminence: Someone who is highly regarded, happening 
                 now "His eminence."(Should only refer to the 
                God  of Abraham, Issac, Jacob and of the Uni-
                 verse, never to a man.)

Imminent:  Something on the verge.

Imminence: The quality of being about to happen
                 or happening now. 

Omni…Prefix from the Latin meaning, simply “all.”
      The church has historically ascribed to our Lord
      Omnipotence: Having all power. Rev. 19:6
      Omniscience:  Having all knowledge.
      Omnipresence:  (Positive) He exists everywhere.
        (Negative) There is no place where He is not., sic.
In Psalms 146:6: "Which made heaven and earth, the
sea and all that in them is: which keepeth truth forever."
He created all that exists and the place of It’s existstence.
Our Lord reveals himself to creation using Words.

There are other words that may be linked with the prefix,
“Omni,”  that might be used to reveal the Lord God…
 Benevolent, Merciful, Thoughtful, Just. “God is light…”  
In 1 John 1: 5-6, "This then is the message which we have
heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and 
in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellow-
ship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not
the truth..." 
  
Finally we cover the source and reason for it all:
1 John 4: 7-8, "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is 
of God; and every one that loveth is born of God and kno-
weth God.  He that loveth not, knoweth not God, for God 
is love."
     Is his essence love or light?  Neither, for qualities of
    our God cannot be codified, (reduced to a code,) or 
    systematized.  He does, however; know man, inside  
    and out, from top to  bottom..  

Psalm 139: 1-6,   O Lord, thou hast searched me, and,
known me.  Thou knowest my downsitting and mine
uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou
compasseth my path and my lying down, and art 
acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in 
my tongue, but lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.
Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine
hand upon me. 6. Such knowledge is too wonderful for 
me.  It is high; I cannot attain unto it. (Also read 7-18)

Outline of Bible Study given on 12.21.16, donporter,sr.

   All of the qualities of the Lord God must be understood in
the light of his "Holiness."  God's Word states, "The Lord is
Holy in all his works..."  Psalm 145: 17.  He has also said, 
be holy, throughout Scripture, "Follow peace with all men,
and Holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord." 
                                                                        Hebrews 12: 14...
