If God is all powerful, can God exist and not exist at the same time?

Question

Being beyond all comprehention as a force in the multiverse, can't God at once be non- existent and at the same time suffuse every living and material thing there is, has been, or will be? To say other wise would be to put a limit on the power of God, right? I believe it is true, but what do you think?

Alright, let me clarify this. This is to say that God is at once a factor and not a factor. While an atheist believes there is no God and a preacher believes there is, they are both right. Also, this doesn't suggest any kind of suicide by God. Being God could God not cease existing and then resume it, despite not existing to do so? I think so.

Answer 1

God can perform anything that any limited entity can conceive of, even what appears to us to be contradictory logic, is no difficulty at all for the Supreme.

He can take an unlimited step and not take that step at the same time, exist with-in every subatomic atom, yet not exist at the same time, he can create a rock so big that he cannot lift it and lift it at the same time.

God can perform anything and everything within the boundaries of our individual minuscule understanding of logic & philosophy and has unlimited potency to perform seemingly impossible tasks, way beyond our wildest conceptions.

Answer 2

Confusion! Doubt! Disbelief!
Has anyone, whether a believer or otherwise, after
they're dead, told the world that they have proof that
God exists?? The answer is NOOO!!!
I don't know, you don't know, and no one knows
either!!
Why is it that when a horrific accident occurs and a
lot of innocent people die, it's always the ones that
were spared that invoke Gods will? God was with them.
What about the ones that were killed? They were believers
too! Why wasn't God with them?? What did they do to
deserve such a fate?? The answers are always the same.
God called on the victims and only God knows why.
God works in mysterious ways.
God knows the victims are in a better place.
The idea of a God that exists is all in the mind.
It gives one hope.
It reassures us that someone is looking out for us.
This idea, that there is one and only God, came from
an oppressed people.
The ancient Greeks and the Romans believed in
multiple Gods. There was a God for everything, but
those Gods almost always favored the rich and the
powerfull. The poor and the slaves, they had no God
to look after them.
Where is your God when you need him the most??
You need PROOF that God exists!
Please don't confuse luck with God.
Some people are extremly lucky, alot of us are not.
Believe in a God if you need to, but simple logic will
tell you that a theory is only a theory until it is proven
a fact.
I hate to sound cold, but the facts are as follows...
You are born and your parents pay the bill.
If you are lucky, your parents raise you to be a productive
citizen. You get married and produce the future generation.
You pay your bills and don't forget to pay your taxes.
When you die, please, please, please don't forget to tell
the world where you went. We will all be waitng to hear
from you. Don't forget. If you somehow, someway manage
to this, you will forever be called a Saint!!! GOOD LUCK!
Please don't give up on hope. It's the best thing to believe
in. God helps those that help themselves!!!!

Answer 3

Bgrimey, you're close to to awareness that God's life does not word to a similar regulations and rules that govern guy. If he's God and is a APB then He lives with the aid of rules and regulations that could't be defined with the aid of guy made regulations rules and innovations. when you consider that He lives outdoors time, does not have a actual physique, does not age and the guidelines of physics do no longer word to Him. If He must be defined and define then He does not be God. So who ought to truly have the strategies to describe and define His capability and being? So, in a fashion you're spectacular in announcing God is previous life, yet somewhat he's previous life as we comprehend it and comprehend it. yet He does exist.

Answer 4

If a being such as this exist, then of course, but I would not be so presumptuous as to say if he would or would not. They said that in the 7th day he rested, maybe that was him, turning him self into nothing. If God is so perfect, then why did he make such imperfect beings? Or is he perfect? We were maid in the image of God, dose this mean he is not perfect either? Oh, well ponder the thought of which we could not hope to understand, even if it were true.

Answer 5

Quantum physics has proof that the entire universe is constantly blinking in and out of existence all the time- at a high rate of speed. I'm sure it is no big thing for God to exist and not exist simulataneously. You and I do it.

Answer 6

The laws of science do not apply to God. The powers of God go beyond that of mere mortals such as ourselves. I am not sure of God could exist himself out of the universe.

Answer 7

Nope :)

The Christian God is Logically and Rationally Omnipotent.

The point you make above highlights the rational incoherence of the conventional conception of Omnipotence (and is not really a limitation on the power of the Christian God).

Cordially,
John

Answer 8

Any existance or non existance of anything is a function of our knowledge. 10000 years ago a glass of water from a river only contained water. today it is known to contain viruses, bacteria, algae, silt etc etc... and may be 10000 years later it will contain 10000 more things. The point is that everything always existed, it was our knowledge that made it exist or not exist.

Answer 9

I think that you have mistaken being all powerful with being able to do anything. God can't tell a lie, He can't make a mistake, He can't commit a sin, He can't learn anything.

He also can't do things that are impossible by definition. He can't make parallel lines cross because then they wouldn't be parallel. He can't make a square circle. And He can't exist and not exist because those are two contradictory statements.

Answer 10

Yes, just like you exist in this dimension but do not exist in others. Or, and this is a better and provable example, the way particles on the quantum level seem to come in and out of existence randomly.
