The Attributes of God

The attributes of God are the qualities that describe who God is. They include omnipotence (all-powerful), meaning God can do anything; omniscience, being all-knowing; omnipresence, present everywhere at once; and omnibenevolence, perfectly good and loving. Other attributes include justice, fairness in all actions; mercy, compassion and forgiveness; and holiness, being completely pure and separated from evil. These qualities help us understand God's nature as perfect, infinite, and beyond full human comprehension, inspiring trust, reverence, and relationship.
