Answer 2

God's abode is in Heaven and in you Heart if you truly love Him.
His attributes and His nature are described in great detail in the Bible.
I Cr 13;8a
12-4-6

Answer 3

God lives in heaven. His main attributes are love, justice, wisdom and power and love is so powerful in his nature that the Bible says, "God IS love." He has the absolute right to rule over us as it is because of his will that we were created and that we continue to exist. He is most merciful, kind and gracious, He never does anything without first informing his loyal servants so that they will be prepared for both good and bad things and will be able to remain safely under his protective care.

Answer 4

God is omnipotent, which means He can be in many places at once.

God is all powerful, magnificent. I think the best way to describe God is that He is like the perfect Father, because He is fair and just, He will discipline and correct but He is merciful and loving and kind and good. He cares for the smallest creature and He loves the worst sinner. He sees the heart, where we as humans look at the outer appearance. His is wise and concerns Himself with the smallest issue in your life when you love Him.

He does not need anything - not our prayers or praise or obedience. Instead, all the laws, all the instructions He has ever given, are for our sakes, not His.

Jesus Christ intercedes to God for us.

Answer 5

God Almighty... a cluster of pure energy has his abode as the kingdom of God (aka Baikuntha in Hinduism). Every enlightened human being (kaivalya jnani) after reaching the stage of salvation (aka moksha in Hinduism) leaves for the kingdom of God (Baikuntha).

The kingdom of God (Baikuntha) is a place of no return. Every soul (aka atman in Hinduism) after gaining liberation from the cycle of birth and death forever reaches the kingdom of God... the final abode... a point of no return! Only the souls of enlightened beings (kaivalya Jnanis') who have gained salvation (moksha) can enter the abode of God... the kingdom of God!

The abode of God (kingdom of God) cannot be entered in bodily form. Souls (atmans) which are pure energy and being of the same essence as God Almighty reside in the kingdom of God. The abode of God (the kingdom of God) announces the end of the journey for every soul since it started its cosmic sojourn.

Right from the stage of amoeba (the first manifestation... a single cell formation) to the manifest form of a human being... the soul because of its inherent impurities cannot enter the kingdom of God. It is only when the soul liberates finally from the chakravayuha of Samsara (the manifest world)... it gains entry into the kingdom of God. The journey of every soul culminates into the kingdom of God.

It is only when all the souls in the Cosmos gain pristine purity does the collapse of the Cosmos (the dissolution of the Cosmos) finally occurs. And this dissolution of the Cosmos paves way for the birth of a new cosmos with a big bang. More on gods abode here- http://www.godrealized.org/god/who_is_god.html

Answer 6

[2:255] GOD: there is no other god besides Him, the Living, the Eternal. Never a moment of unawareness or slumber overtakes Him. To Him belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth. Who could intercede with Him, except in accordance with His will? He knows their past, and their future. No one attains any knowledge, except as He wills. His dominion encompasses the heavens and the earth, and ruling them never burdens Him. He is the Most High, the Great.

Answer 10

God is everywhere

God's Attributes
Natural Attributes of God

God's natural attributes are: infinity, eternity and immortality, immutability, omniscience, omnipresence, and omnipotence.

I. Infinity

God is infinite. He has no limitations nor imperfections. Man is limited by relations of time and space. He has mental and physical limitations and imperfections. Man is finite; God is infinite. God's powers are unlimited. He has universal and perfect relations with all other existence.

God is unsearchable. Finite man cannot comprehend the fullness of the infinite God. Man can know God and much about God, but he cannot know everything there is to know about God in all details of His total perfections. Man can know God because He has revealed Himself to man. The infinite God is unsearchable. (Job 11:7; Psalm 145:3; Isaiah 40:28; Rom. 11:33-36.)
II. Eternity and Immortality

God is eternal. There never was a time when God did not exist. He always was, always is, and always will be. Eternity is infinite time.

Eternity extends in both directions. It is just as far backward into eternity as it is forward into eternity. For the believer, eternal life has a beginning but will have no ending. God, however, not only will live forever in the future, but also has lived forever in the past.

God is immortal. He is not subject to death. That which is immortal is deathless, imperishable, incorruptible, indestructible, indissoluble. It never fades, never dies, never ends. It does not depreciate, decay, or corrode. It results in unending existence; it is exempt from death.
1 Timothy 1:17

Now unto the King immortal

Romans 1:23

The uncorruptible God

1 Timothy 6:16

Who only hath immortality

The fact that God is eternal refers to His endless duration of existence. The fact that God is immortal refers to the type of physical nature He has that enables Him to have that eternal existence. God's eternity and immortality are linked together.
III. Immutability

God is unchangeable. What He now is He always has been and always will be. God cannot change for the better because He is already best. He cannot change for the worse because He thereby would cease to be perfect. Infinite perfection is unchangeable.

Psalm 102:26, 27

Earth changes, God is the same

Malachi 3:6

I am the Lord, I change not

James 1:17

No variableness

Hebrews 6:17, 18

Immutability of His counsel

Exodus 3:14

Always in present tense

All created things are subject to change and deterioration, but God remains always the same. Stars burn out, mountains wear away, buildings crumble; plants wither, flowers fade, animals die; metal rusts, food decays, machinery wears out. Mankind changes, suffers, and dies. In our changing universe, only God is unchangeable.


IV. Omniscience

God is perfect in knowledge. God's mind is perfect. His knowledge is infinite, eternal, and complete.

Job 37:16

Perfect in knowledge

Psalm 147:5

His understanding is infinite

Acts 15:18

All His works from beginning

1 John. 3:20

God knoweth all things

Hebrews 4:13

All things opened unto His eyes

Psalm 139:1-6, 23

Hast searched me and known me

Isaiah 40:13, 14, 28

Who hath taught Him?

Romans 11:33, 34

O the depths of the riches

V. Omnipresence

God is everywhere present. Wherever we are we can say, "God is here!" He is our nearest environment. One is no nearer to the presence of God on a mountain than he is in a cavern. Nearness to God is not a matter of geography. No point is nearer to God's presence than any other point. One needs not shout across the empty miles to an absent God. God is here; He can hear your faintest whisper.
Psalm 139:7-12

Whither flee from thy presence

Jeremiah 23:23, 24

His presence fills heaven, earth

Acts 17:24-28

Not far from every one of us

Psalm 23:4

Thou art with me

1 Kings 8:27

Heaven cannot contain thee

God is not everywhere present in the same sense. God is in heaven, His dwelling place (1 Kings 8:30); Christ is in heaven at God's right hand (Eph. 1:20); God's throne is in heaven (Rev. 21:2; Isa. 66:1). Heaven is a real place. Although God is in heaven, through His power and presence He is everywhere present and acting.


VI. Omnipotence

God is all powerful. He is almighty. His power is infinite. There is nothing that He cannot do. With Him all things are possible.

Revelation 19:6

The Lord God omnipotent

Revelation 21:22

The Lord God Almighty

Job 42:2

Thou canst do everything

Genesis 18:14

Is anything too hard for the Lord

Luke 1:37

With God nothing impossible

Matthew 19:26

All things are possible

Genesis 17:1

I am the Almighty God

The power of God is designated in the Bible as God's Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the impersonal power of God. The Bible uses the words power and spirit interchangeably. Every work that God does is performed through His power or Spirit.

Moral Attributes of God


God's moral attributes describe His character. They designate the properties within God's nature that determine His moral relationships with mankind. What God does is determined by what God is. The works of God are based upon the character of God.

The three fundamental moral attributes of God are holiness, love, and truth. Holiness includes righteousness and justice. Love includes mercy, grace, lovingkindness, and goodness. Truth includes veracity and faithfulness.

God is holy.
Holiness refers to God's moral perfection. The holiness of God involves a positive aspect and a negative aspect. The positive aspect of God's holiness is the fact that in Him all goodness dwells. The negative aspect is the fact that in Him no moral evil exists. The first thought is designated by the word excellence. The second is designated by the word purity.


God is love.
Love is an outstanding moral attribute of God. Love has no existence apart from God; God performs no work apart from His holy love. Love is a basic characteristic of His nature. The truth is not merely that God loves, but that God is love. Love is not simply something God does; it is His nature. His love is neither occasional nor limited.
God Is Truth.
This means that what God knows agrees perfectly with what God is. He is divinely self-consistent. He is real, genuine, true to His nature. The truth of God is the guarantee of reality, the stability of existence, the foundation of certainty. Men can discover scientific facts and truths in history only because God is truth and is the source of all truth.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster is omnipresent. We just can't see him because the light is noodlified before it reaches us.
