Please tell me what YOU think God is... an epic quest for the truth...?

Question

Please look in your heart for your answer.
I have a belief that each and everyone of us is a small part and manifestation of God. So each of us has a piece of the answer to the question of what or who God is. But we need to be honest with ourselves in order to find that answer that resonates with our soul.

Please write only 1-5 sentences.

And e-mail this question to people you know. This is a project I am embarking on. Together we will find the answer.

Ok I confess. Forget the 1-5 thing write what you like lol!

Answer 1

I perceive God to be the force that exists in all natural things. This force perpetuates through momentum and is it's own creator. In my view everything that exists is bound together by that force.

I've been describing myself as agnostic but I've come to find out that I am a pantheist.

I am very excited to learn that there are others who have developed beliefs similar to mine. I reached these conclusions independenly.

I believe that all things function in a natural realm, even the things that are as yet, impossible to quantify. That belief eliminates the need for man made gods. Although I think belief in any god expands consciousness.

I often side with atheists who are beyond skeptical. Their zeal for proof however, limits them spiritually. I also take issue with people who devote their lives to serving all powerful deities. Neglecting to love the God within and all around them.

Thanks for allowing us to expand our comments. With just one paragraph I barely got my point across.

Answer 2

Hai pal, you have the braveness to precise your theory while maximum human beings do lack in it. that's the strking actuality that maximum human beings belonging to distinctive faiths finally understand. however the question the thank you to make a living out of it? you're speaking approximately what would you be after dying. i'm purely referring the way you would be whilst living? you desire some identity, team, faith you're predicted to maintain on with or attributed to be belonging to. How else you will get relieved of those born with presents? it somewhat is a materialist international the place each thing spins around funds and potential. attempt to appreciate and have an account of that philosophy which shows the two the methods. Sinmple living, intense thinking, pious, philonthrophic, and confortable desire based accompalishments and a watch on the existence after dying. have been given it?

Answer 3

We are a manifestation of GOD in the sense that we are all predestined to be conformed to the image of Christ. Also that we were created by him. The line that we cross is when we think we can become like GOD through some twisted deductive reasoning. Sort of like speaking ourselves into deity. The source of all life has made it real clear how we can have a relationship with him. If you wish to jump over the fence or sneak in the back door that's fine. I will walk through the narrow gate and through the front door.

Answer 4

I don't believe in one. I think the old desert nomads completely misinterpreted anything they were fortunate enough to see. I KNOW there's femininity in everything and life shows that the more complex anything is, multiplicity is involved. I see humans, even the dumbest of the dumb, as being very complex. There's neurology, physiology, emotion, etc...so many characteristics involved...I guess if the word 'God' was used to describe a state of being, like 'knowledge' describes a certain aspect but it can be related to many things (knowledge of car racing, knowledge of mathematical equations, knowledge of animal behavior, knowledge of sculpting)...what's that called, an adjective or adverb or something?

Answer 5

When God speaks to my heart,
even with news that could be troubling,
there is a calm about it.
There is nothing to fear or
worry about in God's hands.
His voice is delicate yet very powerful
at the same time - full of wisdom, love,
and truth. He really does have an
answer for everything!

Answer 6

How can belief in a myth be a quest for the truth? It can be a quest in terms of a search, but I don't believe truth is found in fantasy. I am a big believer in being honest with oneself, but that would include not blindly believing in something because it's easier or makes you feel better by avoiding unpleasant truths. Science, not religion, is a true quest for truth.

Answer 7

I suspect the Bible is an early literary effort that absorbed a lot of readers because it provided a means of, and a rationalization for projecting power of a single group of individuals over others.

Answer 9

I believe god is everything. God is absolutely everything as in God is the reason that babies die as much as it is the reason that miracles occur. I don't think God is good nor evil rather both and everything in between. If that makes any sense.

Answer 10

god and religion were invented by humanity to explain away things like famine, war, and things that go bump in the night...

They were invented to make the followers feel better about their outlook in life when all they could look forward to was famine, poverty and war...

the bible is a work of fiction that contradicts itself...

in my opinion, anyone that has faith in god or his religions is in denial and unable to accept reality...

its time for humanity to wake up and begin to grow up. belief in god and religion is like a belief in the Easter bunny or Santa, or the tooth fairy. at some point we realize that they don't exist and move on. its time to do that with religion...
