What does the Bible teach about the transcendence of God?
God transcends His creation – He is totally different. God is infinitely greater than everything which He has created. He is independent from, and over His creation (Is. 40:26), maintaining a sustaining relationship to it (Heb. 1:3). Pantheism says that God is His creation, but the Bible says that God is not what He has created (Is. 6:1-5; 55:8-9; 57:15; Ps. 113:5-6; Ps. 123:1; Jhn. 8:23). He is not like His creation, He is not a part of His creation, He is not a creature. He is the Creator! Note the following: God is infinite. In contrast to man who is limited in every way, God is totally unlimited. Man is finite, limited by time and space. The Almighty Omnipotent God is the Creator of time and space (Gen. 35:11), greater than His creation (1 Kings 8:27). What do the following Scriptures teach about the infinity of God: Gen. 14:22; Job 42:2; Jer. 32:17; Matt. 19:26. How should we respond to the infinity of God? Have a look at Neh 9:5-6 & Ps 57:5. God is eternal. God transcends time. H
