Wisdom of God: He is only Wise

Certain attributes of God are incommunicable such as His – self-sufficiency, immutability, independence, omniscience, etc. These attributes of God are distinct from man and makes God who He is. But there are certain attributes that are communicable and one of them is Wisdom of God.

The wisdom of God is pure, peaceable, gentle, full of mercy, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. God’s wisdom cannot be compared to Man’s as it’s value is more than fine rubies. This wisdom can be available to those who fear God and shun evil.

The law, the knowledge of good and evil exacerbated the condition of mankind. But the wisdom of God emboldens man to stay far from the exposure of evil.

Immutability of God

God makes it clear that He cares for generations, generations past, present and future. People change but God does not, despite having ample of reasons to bail out on a disobedient creation like humans. The word of God is unchangeable. Its equally relevant to people who were living thousands of years ago and people from this day and age. God’s promises do not change. God’s calling does not change. God’s Holiness & love is unchanging.

Holiness of God

The holiness of God is much more than an attribute of God; it is a synonym of who God is. Br. Abraham Koshy continues from the Glory by showing how it is integral to holiness and examines its root word ‘separate’. Afterward, he discusses the repulsiveness of holiness and how it is made accessible in Jesus Christ; he then explores the standards of holiness and finally contrasts the mount of Sinai with the mount of Zion.
