The four main cardinal qualities of God are Love (1 John 4:8), Justice (Deuteronomy 32:4), Wisdom (Proverbs 2:6) and Power (Job 37:23).

These four qualities have been consistently used and demonstrated throughout history, as recorded in The Bible, by Jehovah God. They are perfectly balanced facets, or sides, of God's personality that always work in perfect balance with one another. These qualities also differentiate Jehovah God from all the gods of mythology and various other religions.

The prophet Ezekiel describes details of a vision in which he describes seeing "four living creatures" also referred to as "cherubs."

Ezekiel 1:10:

Their faces looked like this: Each of the four had the face of a man, and on the right side each had the face of a lion, and on the left the face of an bull; each also had the face of an eagle.

These Cherubs are described as having four different faces: The face of a Man, a Lion, an Eagle, and a Bull.

The four faces of the Cherubs in Ezekiel's vision represent the four perfectly balanced cardinal qualities, or attributes, of God. These are identified in the Bible as:

  • Love, represented by the man's face.
  • Justice, represented by the lion's face.
  • Wisdom, represented by the eagle's face.
  • Power, as shown by the bull's face.

Never at any point within the pages of the Bible does Jehovah God exercise his unlimited power and authority in a way that is out of harmony with his other cardinal qualities.
