Christ does not refer to Satan as "the god of this world" but as "the prince of this world", and any time I've seen multiple gods referred to in Scripture, I've always caught a very sarcastic overtone. If someone else wants to quote a verse to me that doesn't have that, I'm happy to go look. anything that we put before God can be referred to as a false god, yes, but i prefer the term "idol". Still, I don't object to the use of "an", and here's why: to me, this song is about bragging rights, to which we are entitled as children of God. This song tells it to outsiders, as well as being a reminder to the family of how much we have to be thankful for. And just in case someone takes offense a the bragging rights comment, I'll add that we are supposed to sing the praises of our God for His greater glory, and it's not really bragging as long as it is for His glory, not our own, that we are speaking. Awesome God | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/15/2008 The scriptures do not say that there are no other gods. But the various comparisons throughout the Bible point out that only the one true GOD of Isreal the LORD Almighty, is awesome. Any awe given to other gods is misplaced and false worship. It does say that these 'gods' or idols cannot speak, hear or actually do anything except help the one who gives them honor be deceived. But it does not say that there are no other gods. As a matter fact the Scriptures and more specifically Jesus refers to Satan as 'the god of this world'. But only one God is the LORD (translated from the Hebrew word YHWH) They called him Lord, the Name, Most High, King of heaven, and other names from nearby Isreal because it was that He was held in such awe that even pronouncing His full, real Name audibly was almost an insult. We are blessed in this time to be able to freely pronounce verbage that indicates and will be generally understood as referring to GOD, or the LORD, or Yahweh, all meaning the LORD Almighty as in the Bible. However we should now and always treat His Name in whichever forms and language, with greatest honor and respect, not spoken lightly. About Grammar: This whole lyric is actually a grammatical mess to start with so to try to trip over 'a' or 'an' seems a bit odd. In the English language 'an' is used prior to a noun or pronoun or adjective that starts with a vowel. "'A' is used when these other words start with a consonant. In modern English 'a' or 'an' only means one, that is singular, and is pretty much never used to indicate more than one or plural. Just one of many oddities of the English language.

But our Lord God who created everything really is awesome! Let's remember this & share it with all we meet. God bless & take care showing love 2 all. AN instead of A | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/14/2008 well i trully think the song should be corrected because by AN it refers to many other gods thus for the song to be perfect it should have been renamed to "A awesome GOD" not "AN awesome GOD".That is just degrading the mighty GOD. Grammar? | Reviewer: Tom | 6/25/2008 Well, the point is not to critisize, but to interpret wisely, I mean, why The author have put "AN" instead of "A" or "THE". Firstly I'll cope with "A", because it's easier. Our Awesome God is in fact very common in literature and in common language. Also, He is very close to us, so we are somehow allowed to use our language (if it's possible) to describe Him, and, just to indicate it, author didn't put there an artficial construction "A Awesome", but more (if I can call it that way) adapted to human beings "an awesome". "THE" is tougher to explain, but I'll try. As I said, using "God" is very common in language, let's mention a word "Goddamn", which is still making me thik - the Polish equivalent is "do diabła" ("[I wish it'd gone] to devil") or, as an "adjective", "cholerny" ("[having something to do with] cholera"), so I, as Pole, can't understand it. On the other hand, it is quite obvious that THE GOD (or just - God, The Only One) IS Awesome, if we call THE GOD the one mentioned in church or on theology studies. And in this song author say "I hope that we have not too quickly forgotten that /our God is an awesome God"). If a priest said it, it wouldn't make sense, if we conider THE GOD. But it does make sense, if we are talking about a God from common language, a God as undefined as this article. Now, it become quite obvious why our God (the God we, common people, are "using" in everyday life) is AN awesome God. That's ll, sorry for my mistakes, English, as I said, isn't my mother tongue Grammar part 1 (sorry, my browser couldn't put it in one part) | Reviewer: Tom | 6/25/2008 Well, the point is not to critisize, but to interpret wisely, I mean, why The author have put "AN" instead of "A" or "THE".

He is an Awesome GOD | Reviewer: Child of God | 6/19/2008 Why is there even discussion on the grammar and what that means? As Christians, we stand on common ground. That He is truly an Awesome GOD and since we know him as the One and Only true GOD why bring up such claims? Back to the main focus though, I looooove this song!!! Infact the first time I heard it was a friend of mine just humming the chorus...imagine. And the words I do agree are powerful. I hope this song touches other as it has touched me.
