Do you agree with some religions that say that trees or monkeys or elephants or the world or nature are God
If not why not ?

So as you rightly accept that other of God's creations such as trees, animals etc cant be God - how can you accept that a human can be lol

good question-annd i like 'y do they think a human can be" haha that's just human nature; we've always been like that. romans, kings, egyptians. their rulers were considered gods. it's totally completely retarded, because how can the creation be the Creator, basically. It can't, it doesn't follow logically. God created everything, but everything didn't create Him, so He is the Supreme Infinite Being that created the heaven and earth and sea and everything in them!
Sorry if that's not a very good explanation...
btw, i believe Mr. Utuk needs a vocab lesson?... 'transcends' does not mean equal to. Orthodox Christianity does NOT state that God "is everything, is in everything, and TRANSCENDS" everything. Jesus never said that. Ever. God is everywhere at all times and knows everything, but He is not everything- that's how all the pagan cultures of ancient history fell into the bondage of idol worship in the first place! They did not understand, because obviously they didn't have science, and they thought that the created was the Creator (which we already discussed)! They were confused and misled. They didn't understand the difference between sungod and God. (And it wasn't because they were monkey people either.)

I don't agree with the idea that God is the world. He created it and is not the world anymore than I am a painting that I create. Also, he says time and time again that he doesn't want us calling anything that is not him God. Not that we listen... but anyway, God is nolo something or other(aw, rats, what was the word? I don't speak latin) Well, whatever the word was, it means that he was not created but existed forever. I'll try to find the word... I'll probably add more to this later
In answer to the second part. We cannot be gods nor were we ever gods. We only exist because God wants someone to interact with. It's not much fun being alone.

No I don't. The reason why I say that is because the trees, monkeys and nature are simply not God. God created all of them so how can they be him? That is so stupid.(Not saying the person is just that thought) I don't understand some people and how they think.

If you read the book of Genesis1:24-31 (New King James Version) you will see that God made these creatures, but it does not say that He entered them.
The only person that God entered was Jesus. Jesus was God. No animal is God.

No. God is the Creator.
God is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and end.
God has always been. God is God.
Those religions are not of God. Oh, they are trying to FIND God, no doubt, but they are missing the mark.

No not at all I can understandprimitives seeing the sun as God but there is one God who created us and loves us. He is above all on earth

No. Because God created all of those things. And God is not a created being. So how could He be those things?

No.
The question doesn't even make sense, unless you are talking about a religion thast has NATURE as an idol--which is AGAINST what I believe, Which is that I am TOTALLY believing there is a God that stands out there for me.
And that His son, Jesus would have died for JUST me.
THAT'S what I believe.

no, i dont, althoughi believe god made all things. humans were given the holy spirit, as opposed to animals, or inanimate objects, acorrding the the bible we have a spirit, or soul, in additon to our physical bodies. in the ressurrection we will have new perfect physical bodies.god mainifesting himself in natural things is a pagan idea
