POINTS:

God is transcendent. He exists apart from creation and is not subject to the limitations of the material universe.
God is omnipresent, everywhere all at once. He fills the earth.
God is personal. He talks, creates, and has feelings.
God is one in essence and yet distinct in the persons of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit (Trinity)
God creates with His word.
God can create something out of nothing.
God can create a cosmos from chaos.
God brings what is disordered into order.
To receive His order in our lives, we must come under the authority of the word of God.
All human beings are made in the image of God.
When God created He built in His creation the self-perpetuating power to procreate.
The seed built into creation was corrupted by sin.
Jesus comes as the uncorrupted seed, and His death produces many new uncorrupted seeds.
Christians are the new uncorrupted seed and we are meant to reproduce more Christians.
To know God as Creator means we can’t settle for shallow Christianity.
