-God is the central being of all existence. He is eternal in that he has no beginning and no end. In the [[Genesis 1|first chapter of the first book]] of [[Bible]] an account is given of God creating the universe and the earth and creating people in his own image. The Bible also reveals that God is full of [[God is forgiving|mercy]] and [[God is love|love]] (for example [[1 John 4:8]]. Millions of people in the world trust in God as their master and Lord and also their saviour. He is a personal being, who is three in one - [[God the Father|Father]], [[Jesus Christ|Son]] and [[Holy Spirit]]. The Bible also reveals that God stands ready to come into any person's life when that person acknowledges him and repents of having not lived his way.
+God is the central being of all existence. He is eternal, without beginning and without end ([[Psalm 90:2]]; [[Revelation 1:8]]). All things that exist owe their existence to Him, and nothing that exists can exist apart from His sustaining power. The very first chapter of the Bible begins not with an argument for God’s existence but with a simple, majestic declaration: “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth” ([[Genesis 1:1]]). From the very opening verses, Scripture presents God as the eternal, personal, powerful Creator who speaks the universe into existence and forms humankind in His own image ([[Genesis 1:26]]–[[Genesis 1:27|27]]).
-===[[Character of God]]===
+The Bible also reveals God’s character to be full of mercy, compassion, justice, holiness, and steadfast love ([[Exodus 34:6]]–[[Exodus 34:7|7]]; [[Psalm 103]]:8–14). The apostle John states plainly that “God is love” ([[1 John 4:8]]), and this love is demonstrated not abstractly but personally through His actions in history—most clearly in the sending of His Son, Jesus Christ, for the salvation of the world ([[John 3:16]]; [[Romans 5:8]]).
-Although the mere existence of God can be deduced by natural reason his nature is beyond our understanding. He gives life to all and he is the author of love and forgiveness. [[John 1:4]] describes this beautifully:
+Millions of people across the world and throughout history have trusted in this God as their Lord, Master, and Saviour. He is not a distant or impersonal force but a personal being who reveals Himself, who invites people into relationship with Him, and who comes into anyone’s life when that person acknowledges Him, turns from sin, and places their trust in Him ([[Acts 3:19]]; [[James 4:8]]).
-God is also completely [[holy]] and without any evil. At the same time God is forgiving and merciful and full of love.
