#3 Can I ever understand the Doctrine of God?

T,hat goes without saying and the answer is "No". But that does not mean that one throws in the towel and lets it go.   In dealing with theology, we start with what we can fathom and move from there.   For instance, what can I comprehend about God?

God is seven things:   Spirit, person, life, self-existent, unchanging, unlimited by time and space, a unity.  On this Sunday morning, with images on every television of the horror in Connecticut, I choose to find a moment of serenity and think about God in each of these seven ways.  It allows me a chance to know that God is still on his throne, no matter how scary the world feels.

The Governor (Dan Malloy) said last night, "We have faith for a reason!"
