Names of God - Part 2: Elohim

When you look at someone and think about their life, they often have multiple names, titles, and descriptions—ranging from formal to deeply personal. Each name offers a snapshot of who they are, revealing different relationships and depths of connection. While each name genuinely represents an aspect of the person, no single name captures their entire essence.

If that is true of a finite being, it is certainly true of an infinite God.

In this new series, we explore the names of God. Just as learning someone's various names helps us understand them better, discovering God's names deepens our understanding of Him. In this lesson, we explore the name Elohim.
