Divine attributes cannot be disassociated from covenantal redemptive history.
Throughout the Scriptures, God makes himself known through both relationships and divine acts, all of which culminate eschatologically. Thus, the fullness of the knowledge of God is expressed in an apocalyptic approach to history, which centers on the day of YHWH. The emphasis on divine attributes disconnected from redemptive history during the Constantinian era of church history seems to be the result of Hellenistic encroachment. -John P. Harrigan
