Abstract

This chapter reviews the attributes of God in Christianity, then introduces the notions of divine greatness and divine sovereignty. It argues that God is sovereign in creation and in revelation, and discusses both concepts in some detail. It contends that scripture is the central place where God’s revelation is found.
