The author revisits the classical discussion comparing the biblical God with the philosophers’ God, particularly using the works of Thomas Aquinas and focusing on the three divine attributes of immutability, eternity, and simplicity. Attention is paid to the idea of the Holy Spirit as related to the simplicity of God and how humans, made in God’s image, are similar to God
