Mike Thompson (the Colonel, Ret.), Marvin Jones (the Doctor), and Van Loomis (the Preacher)are ascending to the highest of heights in talking about the doctrine of God. They talk first about God's revelation in His Word and how that should affect us and transform our lives. Then they talk about "what" God is (His essence) and "who" God is (His attributes). The doctrine of God should make our hearts leap out of our chests in worship and praise to Him. What a mighty God we serve!
The Col. the Dr., and the Preacher broadly cover Chaps. 25-30 in Joel Beeke's "Reformed Systematic Theology, Volume 1: Revelation and God". We hope this conversation will be helpful and edifying to you. May your hearts be lifted up in worship as you think about God with us!
