Attributes of God
*as a Loving Father
&Provider
*as Creator
God is called Father
because he is the
creator, law-giver,
and protector. In
Christianity, God is
called Father for the
same reasons, but
especially because of
the mystery of the
Father-Son
In general, the name
of Father applied to
deity signifies that he
is the origin of what is
subject to him, a
supreme and
powerful authority, a
patriarch, and
God created the world for
6 days, and on the
seventh day He rested
and made it a holy day.
By His power, He created
the world from nothing
and had shown His
mighty power.
God as a loving Father
and creator:
God made everything for
mankind. Because of His
Great and Abundant
LOVE, we are created in
the image and in the
likeness of God.
Another attribute of God is
being a Father and provider.
