Introduction The existence of humankind is a controversial topic within the scientific community. Christians have found answers to this question and they believe that man was created under God’s instructions. Therefore, questions on who is God and where did he come from might arise even amongst the staunch Christian believers. The Bible answers these questions by telling the nature of God and His purpose for humankind. This paper examines God’s nature based on His creation and the fulfillment of His promises to humanity through Jesus Christ. In addition, it focuses on the general Christian values of faith and forgiveness. The character of God Studying the bible and understanding it gives human beings the insight on God’s divine character. It is important for humanity to know God’s nature and character. The bible warns the believers not to believe everything that gets down their way. They need to recognize God’s presence in their daily endeavors. In a bid to determine God’s manifestation, people need to understand the following main traits of God’s character.

On the fourth day, God created the sun, moon, and the stars to provide light to the earth to separate the day and the night.
