Questions Covered in This Episode:
- What’s an incommunicable attribute of God?

- Communicable Attribute: Things that are true about God, that can also become true of us.
- Self-existent: God is the origin of all things, uncreated.
- Self-sufficient: God is lacking in nothing, He needs nothing.
- Independent: Not dependent on anything in order to exist.
