Today's Resource: God's Biblical Attributes 2-Blu-ray or DVD set
You may have been told that the five primary attributes of God are immutability, impassibility, omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience. We refer to these as the Greek and Latin philosophical OMNIs and IMs. They are quantitative. However, the actual five biblical attributes of God are that He is living, personal, relational, good and loving. These are qualitative. And as we will see, quality trumps quantity.
Theology Thursday: Bible Humor
* Ridiculing the Wicked: Bob shows that God often uses humor and mocking to rebuke the wicked. And check out kgov.com/nicer-than-god. Consider also while the Hebrews were camped at the sea and the Egyptian army was behind them, "the Lord said to Moses, 'Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward" (Ex. 14:15). The Scriptures inform us that God is capable of humor, irony, sarcasm, etc.

Attributes of God

Theology Thursday: Fishers of Men
* Casting Your Net: The Gospel of Luke records Jesus telling Peter to cast his nets. The reward was substantial. In today's message Bob Enyart applies this lesson to encourage us to share the Gospel with those around us.
[Programming Note] * Kate Mulgrew Narrated Geocentrism Film: Early in 2014 Rick Delano, producer of The Principle, promised RSR that his documentary was about the big bang and not a movie on geocentrism. That misrepresentation led RSR to invite scientists and engineers to a special Denver screening of the film for Real Science Radio. We later apologized to the attendees. On the day of the film's Chicago premiere, October 24th, Bob Enyart and Fred Williams will discuss on air the scientific and biblical arguments below to rebut the documentary. We saw a full-length pre-release version of the film that claimed the Sun (and the universe) orbits around the Earth every 24 hours. The film attempted to mislead the audience into thinking that its geocentrism was supported by:
1) the latest Planck satellite confirmations of the so-called Axis of Evil
2) narrator Kate Mulgrew of Star Trek fame, and
3) the scientists interviewed (Lawrence Krauss, George Ellis, Michio Kaku, Max Tegmark, and John Hartnett).
None of these in anyway affirm the film's claim of geocentrism. For the enthusiast though, there's plenty of fun science to learn while refuting geocentrism as we shall see!
Theology Thursday: The Bible is a History Book
* Bible Credibility: The writer of the book of Luke wrote much of the history of the early church. In today's message from Luke 3, Bob explains that the history is true and why that is important.
Theology Thursday: The Divorce Alternative
* Divorce: While no one getting married is planning for a divorce, there are ways make your marriage strong and not be vulnerable to the pitfalls those most couples fall into. The Bible gives wise instruction to husbands and wives. Bob explains how following that advice can help your marriage be the kind of relationship that God desires for you to have.
Theology Thursday: If You Were God...
* What would you do? So many people accuse God, saying that He should do things differently than He does. So now it's up to you. If you were God, how would you do it better? On today's Theology Thursday program, Bob Enyart looks at the ways that God shows great wisdom in His choices and actions. Bob also discusses what the ramifications would be if God acted in the ways that some people think He should.
