Sunday February 14, 2021
THEME: COVENANT WITH THE LIVING GOD
SUB-THEME 2: The living God and other gods (5)
TOPIC: The Infinite God and finite gods
TEXT: Psa.139:7-13; Jer. 23:24.

AIMS:
i. to expose any object of worship apart from the Almighty God as limited in time and space
and
ii. to show the supremacy of the infinite God over all gods.

INTRODUCTION: Quinquagesima Sunday is the next to the beginning of Lent and it tells that
we are fifty days to Easter. As we prepare for a period of Christian chastity, let us continue to
pray for all the faithful to remain upright till the Second Coming of Christ.
One factor that should move all to the worship of the Almighty God is His infinite (unlimited)
power. Scriptures makes it clearthat He is present everywhere, at the same time. People across
the world call on Him at the same time and He hears and answers all. On the contrary, man-made
gods are limited to only one place at the same time, that is, finite. How then can we prove that it
is worthless to worship such gods?

STUDY GUIDE:
1. What is your understanding of “Infinite God” and “finite god”?
2. Read Acts 12:5-12 for proof that God is Infinite. Prov.15:3.
3. Apart from the finite nature of man-made gods, discuss the reasons they must not be
worshipped. Ex.20:3-6.
4. In a religiously plural world, how can we convince those who are in the Church to steer
clear of the worship of other gods? 2Tim 4:1-4

CONCLUSION: It is an awesome thing to know that our God is infinite. There is absolutely
nothing beyond His knowledge. Put your trust in Him and you will be preserved to eternity.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: The Infinite and finite: which will you serve?

MEMORY VERSE: Jeremiah 23:24 - Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see
him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.
