Church of Hidden Knowledge

Chapter Two, Lesson One, Part One... The 72 Names of God

Names have been attributed to each name of God that was veiled. Over time the pieces were scattered and the knowledge it once held remained throughout history to be veiled in many scriptures. An example is how the name God means stregnth but its not common knowledge to know the meaning of that name.

If something was to be become forgotten but remain firmiliar, some would call that object lost. This is how many biblical scholars and I see religion or the topic of "God" today, he became forgotten but remains furmiliar to us today. We now begin Chapter Two, which deals with the 72 Names of God, The Lost of Name of God, the Ineffable Name of God, Attributes of God, and how the names were concealed.

spirit, eternal, infinite, unchangable in his being, wisdom, power, justice, goodness, truth, asiety, graciousness, holiness, immanence, immutability, impassibility, impeccablity, incomprehensibility, incorporeality, infinity, jealousy, love, mission, mystery, omnipotence, omnipresence, omniscience, oneness, providence, righteousness, simplicity, sovereignty, transcendence, trinity, veracity, wrath

...above is a list of attributes that came from the 72 Names of God. Looking at this list alone, we can learn much about God that isn't common knowledge. While it's common knowledge to know that God is holy or full of truth, we don't often think about his "wrath". A topic we just studied, the "trinity" is an attibute.

One attribute of God that we don't think a God would have is that of "jealousy". If your the creator and can make things perfect, why make yourself jealous? It becomes obvious that the 72 Names of God don't conceal simple attributes of God but a much larger picture. It was once said that by studying more about God, it allows to be closer to God. Although that sentence wasn't explained very much in detail, we are starting to see one bigger picture coming from the last forming bigger and bigger puzzle pictures then we once imagined.

Please share what you have learned in your studies so far as we learn about Chapter Two!
