To have the right concept of God, you have to keep it basic. He is not a systematic machine that you can learn to operate. His ways lead to practical living. His ethics do not fail. You will not find imperfection in how God operates. His thoughts will not be ignored.
You know God through Jesus. If you believe in Jesus, then you believe in God. Jesus' work is God's work. God's full nature dwells in Jesus. Jesus is radiant in God' glory. Since Jesus is God's exact nature, then His Words are powerful. Jesus purifies sin and sits at the right hand of God.
An attribute is a quality or characteristic that is true about someone. God is not someone, but he is the creator of all things good. We have a limited perspective on God's attributes, but we saw them in Jesus. His attributes are more than an idea or concept. They are true and real.
The trinity work together as one throughout the Bible. You can see that God is holy, righteous, just, sovereign, eternal, immutable, omniscience, omnipresence, omnipotence, love, faithful, truth, glory, kind, merciful, compassionate, and more. How is this personal? It is personal because it applies to each and every life on earth. It is our responsibility to understand God's attributes.
