I have heard many people proclaim to know the truth about God. For the most part they all use different parts of the bible to reinforce the most pressing issues on their minds. Some paint a picture of rewards for being good and true, others focus on conformity and worship. Yet others focus on Damnation.

THis is somewhat of a true statement because God is all of these things!!! He is God!! He is the Alpha and Omega... the First and the Last.... the Begining and the End!He really is the All in All. people tend to focus on the parts of God that they like or see as most important.

What people say about God does not matter at all. Just like we have power over worms to crush them, and do whatever we want, God has the power over us. We know about God by what the bible says. He tells us there two ways to get to heaven. By keeping the laws of God, or by repenting and turning to Jesus. Unfortunetly none can keep the laws so we have to take on the spirit of Christ. We understand punishment from the infintite God is unimaginably horrific. There is no end. We also know the God rewards those that seek after him, and give their life to him. Worship is way to show love for what Christ did.
Here's Scientific Evidence proving the bible

Of course. None can know the infinite, which is God. Saying that they KNOW god only shows that they are arrogant, as knowing God implies knowing the infinite.
Only a God can know a God, while the reverse, a God knowing a man is proper.

Does what a man says about a traffic accident, say more about the man than it does about the traffic accident?
All the samples you have given do not even relate to God's message. They are simply what particular denominations and religions have emphazied in order to control and grow their empires.
And, what is God's message?
Harmony is harmony.
Disharmony is the only sin against God.

words are totally inadequate to communicate God to others, which is why you have to have your own faith, not someone else's. It is similar to trying to describe a sunset to a person blind from birth, words don't cut it! Thus anything we say about God says more about us than about the God we're trying to communicate. I have faith that God knows what we are trying to communicate, and that He know all of the truth within us, therefore that leaves me with only 'man' to convince ... or not.

What a person says about God is a direct reflection of the person. God has and is still capable of speaking for himself should the need arise.

Yes to your question.
If you take a moment and consider what it says if God doesn't exist, then what a man says about God can mean a lot.

A blood bought, changed life speaks well of God.

God is the unfathomable and the unknowable, so how can man pretend to understand. So in answer, it says more about the man.
