Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty.

The fact that no one else has put this (unless I missed it) is somewhat surprising. While all the other descriptions given are good and speak of something about the Lord, the only scripture we have of what it is like in heaven tells us that the overwhelming cry of the people in worship is this. To me, it is the essence of who He is. It is how our spirits will react o being in His presence.

The word "Holy" was mentioned earlier, but as a grouping with two of His other attributes, and not as it should have been, "Holy, Holy, Holy", so thank you for pointing that out :oldthumbsup: I also agree with you that as single word descriptions of God go, this is the one that is the best/closest description of His "essence".

What or who is the Lord? Answers should be 3 words or less. Thank you. :)
