God "IS"

The question "Who is God?" is a good question. It is better than asking "What is God?" This is because God exists, created us, loves us, is concerned for our being, desires to provide for us, and sent the Son to redeem us. If we were to ask "What is God?" we might be tempted to say that God is the infinite being, the creator, a presence, or something like that. In some respect, this would be true. But the first question brings us closer to understanding more of who God really is in His character and His love for us as revealed in the Bible.
The Bible teaches us that in all existence, from all eternity, there has been and always will be only one God. God was never created, is completely loving, completely just, completely holy, completely merciful, and that He desires the best for us. God is holy and He can have nothing to do with sin as the Bible says, "His eyes are too pure to look upon evil," (Hab. 1:13). This does not mean that God cannot see what someone does that is wrong. It is a way of describing how holy God is. God cannot sin. He is perfect.
In Christianity, God is a Trinity. This means that God is three persons, not three gods. Technically, the doctrine of the Trinity states that in the one God is the person of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Each is not the same person as the other; yet there are not three gods but one. This is similar in analogy to the nature of time. Time is past, present, and future. The past is not the same as the present, which is not the same as the future. But, there are not three times. There is only one thing called time.
The reason the word "person" is used in describing the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit is because each exhibits attributes of personhood -- not in a body of flesh and bones, but in personality. In other words, each has a will, loves, speaks, is aware of others, communicates with others, etc. These are attributes of personhood and we see the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit each demonstrate these qualities.
Because of the Trinity, God can become flesh in the form of the Son, and still exist in such a way so that He can run the universe. Therefore, the Son can communicate to us on our level.

God is the creator of the heavens and the earth.

His name is Jesus.

There is only one true living God.

People feel a need to worship something that's why there many gods. But only one loves you because he's real.

Read the bible to find out more.

God is everything and heaven is everything hell is not.
We did not create God. God created man. It's okay that
you are negative toward it, but one day even you will see that it is true.

God-Creator and our father
Jesus-Savior and father's son

Holy Spirit-speaks to your conscience and ministers to your soul. BUT-you have to be positive toward the word of God.

Well Heaven is a place in the universe, not all of mankind will go there only those who will be Kings & priests with Jesus (RE 20:6) Hell IS NOT SEPARATION FROM GOD hell is described in the Bible as the grave or pit, (hebrew Sheol) God is anything you choose to worship Jesus's God Is Jehovah, (John 20:17) 17 Jesus said to her: “Stop clinging to me. For I have not yet ascended to the Father. But be on your way to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and YOUR Father and to my God and YOUR God.. . .
God"s plan for mankind is to fill the earth with perfect people Gen 1:28, men cannot see God & live ...(Exodus 33:19-20) 19 But he said: “I myself shall cause all my goodness to pass before your face, and I will declare the name of Jehovah before you; and I will favor the one whom I may favor, and I will show mercy to the one to whom I may show mercy.” 20 And he added: “You are not able to see my face, because no man may see me and yet live.”

yes God's purpose for the earth to be filled with perfect people will happen soon, but will you or I be there? that depends on us. I am zorrro857@yahoo.com
