The foundation of all true knowledge of God must be a clear apprehension by the mind of His perfections revealed in Scripture. An unknown God cannot be trusted, served, or worshipped. An effort has been made in this book to set forth the principal perfections of God's character. If the reader truly desires to profit from reading the following pages, he definitely needs to plead with God to bless him, apply His Truth to his conscience and heart, so that his life may be transformed.
The continuous demand for this classic book, written by a preacher with a worldwide ministry during the first half of the 20th Century, demonstrates the deep hunger for a saving knowledge of God that is present in every generation. Arthur Pink sought to give his readers not only a theoretical knowledge of God, but he directed them to a relationship of submission to Him in accordance with His biblical precepts.
This book by Arthur Pink explores attributes such as God's decrees, His presence, sovereignty, holiness, grace, and mercy (among many others), and presents them in a way that is very useful for pastors, teachers, and students of the Bible. Pink teaches that our God, Who is above all names, cannot be found only through human scrutiny, but can only be known if He reveals Himself to us by the Spirit through His living Word.
