[8] : Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
god
   a.s. and dutch god; dan. gud; ger. gott, the name of the
   divine being. it is the rendering 1 of the hebrew _'el_, from
   a word meaning to be strong; 2 of _'eloah_, plural _'elohim_.
   the singular form, _eloah_, is used only in poetry. the plural
   form is more commonly used in all parts of the bible, the hebrew
   word jehovah q.v., the only other word generally employed to
   denote the supreme being, is uniformly rendered in the
   authorized version by "lord," printed in small capitals. the
   existence of god is taken for granted in the bible. there is
   nowhere any argument to prove it. he who disbelieves this truth
   is spoken of as one devoid of understanding ps. 14:1.
   
     the arguments generally adduced by theologians in proof of the
   being of god are:
   
     1. the a priori argument, which is the testimony afforded by
   reason.
   
     2. the a posteriori argument, by which we proceed logically
   from the facts of experience to causes. these arguments are,
   
     a the cosmological, by which it is proved that there must be
   a first cause of all things, for every effect must have a cause.
   
     b the teleological, or the argument from design. we see
   everywhere the operations of an intelligent cause in nature.
   
     c the moral argument, called also the anthropological
   argument, based on the moral consciousness and the history of
   mankind, which exhibits a moral order and purpose which can only
   be explained on the supposition of the existence of god.
   conscience and human history testify that "verily there is a god
   that judgeth in the earth."
   
     the attributes of god are set forth in order by moses in ex.
   34:6,7. see also deut. 6:4; 10:17; num. 16:22; ex. 15:11;
   33:19; isa. 44:6; hab. 3:6; ps. 102:26; job 34:12. they are
   also systematically classified in rev. 5:12 and 7:12.
   
     god's attributes are spoken of by some as absolute, i.e., such
   as belong to his essence as jehovah, jah, etc.; and relative,
   i.e., such as are ascribed to him with relation to his
   creatures. others distinguish them into communicable, i.e.,
   those which can be imparted in degree to his creatures:
   goodness, holiness, wisdom, etc.; and incommunicable, which
   cannot be so imparted: independence, immutability, immensity,
   and eternity. they are by some also divided into natural
   attributes, eternity, immensity, etc.; and moral, holiness,
   goodness, etc.
   

[9] : Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856)
god. from the saxon god, good. the source of all good; the supreme being. 1. 
every man is presumed to believe in god, and he who opposes a witness on the 
ground of his unbelief is bound to prove it. 3 bouv. inst. u. 3180. 
     2. blasphemy against the almighty, by denying his being or providence, 
was an offence punishable at common law by fine and imprisonment, or other 
infamous corporal punishment. 4 bl. corn. 60; 1 east, p. c. 3; 1 russ. on 
crimes, 217. this offence his been enlarged in pennsylvania, and perhaps 
most of the states, by statutory provision. vide christianity; blasphemy; 11 
serg.  rawle, 394. 
     3. by article 1, of amendments to the constitution of the united 
states, it is provided that "congress shall make no laws respecting an 
establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." in the 
united states, therefore, every one is allowed to worship god according to 
the dictates of his own conscience.
