Understanding God's nature transforms our nature

ROBERT R. MacKUSICK

People perceive the name and nature of God differently. Some have a very expansive concept of Deity. For example, Buckminster Fuller, the famous architect, inventor, and engineer, was quoted in The Christian Science Monitor as saying God is "100 percent efficient, eternally unlimited integrity." The article also explains that "because light takes time to travel, nothing is 'simultaneous.' "Mr. Fuller adds, "Except God." Monitor, March 9, 1977 .

Students of the Bible know Deity not only as God, or Lord, but as Maker, Father, Most High, King, and so on.

Why is it important to see God as having a variety of names? After all, isn't God just God? Of course He is. But He is not limited to just one name or concept.
