Remember the former things of old; for I am God and there is no other;

I am God, and there is none like me…

Recently, Bill Patton preached a powerful message titled The Doctrine of God as part of a sermon series at Covenant Fellowship Church called We Believe: The Doctrine Driven Life. The series is teaching through sections of the Sovereign Grace Churches statement of faith: We Believe. Jared Mellinger, senior pastor, began the series with five reasons for teaching through the statement of faith: it reinforces our identity, guards us against wrong ideas, unites us around what is most important, helps us grow in maturity and produces a life of praise. We wanted to share Bill’s sermon on the doctrine of God in the hope to shape, educate and inspire you; producing a life of praise.

There is only one true and living God, who is infinite in being, power, and perfections. God is eternal, independent, and self-sufficient, having life in himself with no need for anyone or anything. (We Believe: A Statement of Faith p. 11)
