In order to say that God "is" isn't it necessary to define God?
To say that God "is," do you not have to recognize that he "is" according to your senses?
For example: If you surmise that God is "love," can you support your guess by proving that "love' is... i.e., that "love" exists in a real way? One cannot touch love or taste it or smell it, etc., so what exactly is "love" but a mere feeling, a non-being sensation that exists only in the reality of ones mind?
Another example: If you say that God "is" all-powerful, can you show what all-powerful "is"? Once again, you can neither sense it by any real sense of sight, sound, taste, touch or smell nor can you understand it as real by anything more substantial than a feeling, a mere emotion of your own being.
How then is God real? How is he a being?
If you maintain that he "is" a being as you would any living thing, then you would naturally be able to experience his being in a real way, through your real physical senses.
