God is infinate. our ablity to describe All of the personality traits of God accuratly is very finite. Narrow it down to one word phrases the description of God suffers even more.
So is their truth in the omni aspects of God yes.
Does the omni apsects of God completely describe the infinate nature of God? no.

Forgive me, but it is truly hard to tell if you are just skimming my work for key words that will allow you set up your next response, or if you truly can not comprehend what is being discussed.
I do not mean the following to be condescending:
What I was describing was the difference between Truth and biblical/Doctrinal truth. The reason truth is like a unauthorized biography is because the person writing the unauthorized biography may not have a complete understanding of whom he is documenting.
This relates to the omni aspects of God by saying, The omni aspects of God are not identified in the bible (Authorized biography) Therefore it maybe subject to misconception and error. Just like an Unauthorized Biography would be. However that said just because it is an unauthorized, does not mean it doesn't hold truth.

Seems to me I may have heard someone arguing about how god might write a book so that people would know him. Can't for the life of me remember who might've said something like that. Not sure how we're supposed to get to know someone from the hearsay and rumors of an "unauthorized biography". To each his own, I suppose.
