Is it compulsory that God should fit within our perspective and the time\space dimensions/?

Answer 1

no, then you are attempting to create your own God.

Answer 2

Yes.
Given our limited capacity to comprehend Omniscience, we must give God a smaller more managable version so our tiny minds can handle "IT".
It's like trying to explain infinite numbers to a child. We tell them it's "A lot".

Putting any kind of limitations on GOD would be "making" a god with a small "g" that we simpletons can understand. And time/space-human created measuring tools ARE limitations.

Answer 3

Ours is the restricted (Metzumtzam) world of physical matter. "Shaddai" hints at "Shdidat HaMa'arechet" (the "breaking of the cosmic bank") that will reveal the unlimited in that which is most restricted - Malchut D'Malchut, the bottom line - the physical. Our predecessors, Jews and non-Jews alike, have consistently ignored the spiritual challenge and moral obligation to eliminate our ignorance and vulnerability concerning this material world and to physically transform it into a paradise (PaRDeS) of abundance (Shefa Elyon). They have even, for the most part, denied the spiritual nature of this challenge and obligation. Our holy sages, in particular, have failed to apply the infinite wisdom of Torah to the sacred task of penetrating nature's secrets and revealing the aspect of limitlessness (Ein Sof) hidden by the Creator for us in mundane obscurity (Hester). For instance, as regards Shefa, how many rabbis realize that a mere kilogram of matter - any matter - if transformed into energy according to Einstein's (z"l) famous formula, E=Mc2, represents over 20 billion kilowatt hours of electricity, enough to fuel the whole world for at least 24 hours?

The empirical investigation and exploitation of the physical realm that has such a pervasive and determining influence in human affairs has been shamefully abandoned to materialist science and technology (Chochmot HaChitzonim) that strives neither in holiness nor for the sake of heaven (L'Shem Shamayim). Consequently, today's typically fragmented, wasteful and bureaucratized research gives rise to technology that is, all too often, polluting and in the service of escapist and/or destructive ends. Even religious scientists employ the same, materialist-inspired, research rationales and methods as their non-believing counterparts. Fragmentation (Pruda) is an expression of the "Husks of the Breaking of the Vessels" (Klippot Shvirat HaKeilim) and stems from the "sparks" (Nitzotzot) of creativity, the restricted vision that, until now, has illuminated the way for science & technology. Imagine trying to run an appliance on sparks of static electricity! Creativity was meant to be a sacred, spiritual adventure encompassing the whole of us (B'Chol L'Vavcha Uv'Chol Nafshecha....) engendering an enduring connection with the transcendent. It is our prime faculty for exercising creative compassion in emulation of the Creator. It is for this, uniquely G-d-like, human function that HaShem created us in his "image" - B'Tzelem Elokim.

Answer 4

No.

Should you wish to explain away your personal problems and those in today's world you might pick up a belief in a higher power which governs this to take away from the personal blame in dealing with your problems...

Should you be scared by the vastness and the unknown of creation then you may again choose to depend on the actions of a higher power...

This isn't necessary if you want to believe in the logic of creation.

Answer 5

We attempt to fit things in with our perceptions. At least within the Bible there are conversion formulas given to convert God's time/space time and spatial relations to our time/space time and spatial relations. A day of Gods time is millions of years of our time.

Answer 6

God exists so that humans can say God exists. And the God they say exists is a lot like them. In the Old Testament, God says: "I am a jealous God." He has all the foibles of humans because he was assembled by humans.

Answer 7

Actually its more of a delusion held buy those who need to limit God to something they can relate to better.

The only way they can accept God is if they limit him/her to something created in their own image and likeness.

Thanks for asking but I doubt if the people this question could help could ever understand it.

Love and blessings Don.

Answer 8

Whenever I ask religious people to show me god they always respond by saying evidence of his work is all around us. I have just been watching the carnage in Iraq. Is this evidence of his work too?

Answer 9

God says, "NOT!"

(Isaiah 55:6-to-11) Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

(Isa 55:7) Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

(Isa 55:8) For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

(Isa 55:9) For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

(Isa 55:10) For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

(Isa 55:11) So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

Thanks, RR

Answer 10

Does anti-matter? But we have evidence it exists.
