The May 2022 issue of Tabletalk will consider misunderstood attributes of God. Our God-centered theology emphasizes right understanding of the fullness of our Lord’s character, and we strive to understand what the Bible says about God’s attributes. However, it can be easy for us to misunderstand what the Bible and our confessional tradition mean when they talk about such things as God’s simplicity, love, wrath, goodness, omnipresence, and omnipotence. If we are not careful, we can misread the anthropomorphic language of Scripture in such a way that we end up putting the Lord on our level. This issue of Tabletalk will explore the meaning of several of God’s attributes, correcting common misunderstandings that arise when these attributes are considered.
