AIMS
to teach God’s almightiness in creation and His immortality, and
– to show us how we can share in God’s immortal and creative power.
INTRODUCTION
Immortality is one of the attributes of the Triune God, and it means the state of not being liable to or subject to death. God lives forever and can never die. The scriptures affirm Him to be the Creator of heaven and earth, contrary to the claims of some scientists and atheists. How the immortal God created heaven and earth and continues to govern and sustain them is what we shall see in this study.
STUDY GUIDE
What do you understand by the phrases, “Immortal God” and “Creator”? How is God described in – 1Tim. 1:17; 1Tim. 6:16; Rev 4:11?
Explain the almightiness of God in Josh 10:12-13; Acts 12:21-24
How can man share in God’s immortal and creative power? Psalm 24:1-4; John 14:12-13.
CONCLUSION:
There is no sustainable argument against the affirmation in the Bible that the immortal God is the Creator of heaven and earth. Indeed, He has gone further to make man in His own image and demonstrate how we can share in this awesome power – through faith in Christ! Food for Thought God, the Immortal, invisible and the only wise.
MEMORY VERSE

Every act of kindness has a reward. There’s nothing that does not count when it comes to bearing the fruit of goodness, every good deed done with a good motive has a reward from God.
“Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.” (James 1:27 KJV)
One of the ways we lay treasures in Heaven is by giving to the poor. The early Church practiced it and laid a lot of emphasis on it. We also need to take care of the poor in our midst.
