God
Etymology of the Word "God"
Discusses the root-meaning of the name "God", which is derived
from Gothic and Sanskrit roots.
Existence of God
Formal dogmatic Atheism is self-refuting, and has never won the
reasoned assent of any considerable number of men. Nor can Polytheism
ever satisfy the mind of a philosopher. But there are several varieties
of what may be described as virtual Atheism which cannot be dismissed
so quickly.
Nature and Attributes of God
In this article, we proceed by deductive analysis to examine the
nature and attributes of God to the extent required by our limited
philosophical scope. We will treat accordingly of the infinity, unity,
and simplicity of God, adding some remarks on Divine personality.
Relation of God to the Universe
The world is essentially dependent on God, and this dependence
implies (1) that God is the Creator of the world -- the producer of its
whole substance; and (2) that its continuance in being at every moment
is due to His sustaining power.
The Blessed Trinity The Trinity is the term employed to signify the central doctrine of the Christian religion -- the truth that in the unity of the Godhead there are Three truly distinct Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
