The Invincible God

Many people have shower revelations. I have bathtub reflections.

A couple mornings ago I as sitting in the bathtub reflecting on the "invincibility" of God. My thoughts came down to two questions; 1. how has our culture and our need to vindicate ourselves in front of our culture shape the way we think about the attributes/character of God? and 2. how has this influenced our reading of the biblical texts?

Stopping short of blasphemy, I tend to think that we adopted an "invincible" notion God as a way to protect ourselves.
