How God Is Revealed

God is revealed through creation and conscience. The created order of this world declares to all the glory of God. Creation declares the Creator (Romans 1:20). Also, God is revealed to you through conscience (Romans 2:15). God has made you a moral agent to know the difference between right and wrong. Conscience reveals God's holiness and our sinfulness.

God is revealed through the Bible. It reveals who God is (John 4:24). He is fully revealed through Jesus Christ (Hebrews 1:1-2). If you want to know what God is like, read the Bible. You will discover that Jesus is the full revelation of God. He reveals the fullness of God's love, mercy, and grace (John 1:16).

God is revealed through the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:1-4). God wants us to know how much he loves us. He knows we have done things that are wrong. He sent his Son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins (I John 1:7). Jesus is alive! He is risen from the dead (Romans 10:9). The gospel reveals God's love to you through the only begotten Son (John 3:16).

God is revealed to you personally as a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ. He works in the heart of every believer, through the Holy Spirit. The heart is the inner-person, that is the mind, will, and emotions. The Holy Spirit reveals the truth of Christ to your heart (John 16:7-11). The only way to God the Father is through Christ the Son (John 14:6)
