Big question
Who is God?
All the big questions › Who is God?
Everything else the Bible says rests on who God is. Scripture presents one God who made all things, who is holy, just and good, and who has made himself known as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He is not distant. He speaks, he acts in history, and he draws near to people who seek him.
The answers gathered here take up what God is like, how he has made himself known, and the hard questions people ask about him, including why he allows suffering and whether he can be trusted when life falls apart.
