Satan was banis- Banishment God’s
hed from heaven
for rebelling against God, and he tempted Eve Attributes
and Adam to sin too. Ever since then, man-
kind’s sins have separated us from God. God God is…
promised to send a savior to die for our sins. Spirit He is spiritual, not
an idol or human like us!
“Therefore the LORD God sent him forth Immutable He never
from the garden of Eden, to till the ground changes!
from whence he was taken. So he drove out Holy He is perfect pure
the man; and he placed at the east of the and without sin!
garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming Eternal He has no begin-
sword which turned every way, to keep the ning or end!
way of the tree of life.” (Genesis 3:23-24) Omnipotent He is all-
powerful!
Omniscient He knows
everything!
Omnipresent He is everywhere at the same
time!
True He never lies!
Loving He loves his children no matter what!
Just He is always fair!
...and much more!
“And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM:
and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the chil-
dren of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto
you.” (Exodus 3:14)
History Note In the
20th cen-
Modernists and tury, Mo-
dernism
Fundamentalists changed
what
many peo-
ple believed. Modernists thought that modern
ideas were better than old fashioned ones, and
they questioned whether the Bible was really
the perfect inspired word of God. Modernists
also started believing that the world has evol-
ved over millions of years instead of believing
that God created the world around six thou-
sand years ago, as we read in the book of Ge-
nesis. Fundamentalists believed in standing
for basic truths like inspiration and creation,
and many Baptist churches left conventions to
become Independent Baptists.
