Is it possible to hide from God?

Answer 1

I don't believe so. Here's what King David had to say about that:

Psalm 139 (New King James Version)
New King James Version (NKJV)
Copyright © 1982 by Thomas Nelson, Inc.



Psalm 139
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
1 O LORD, You have searched me and known me.
2 You know my sitting down and my rising up;
You understand my thought afar off.
3 You comprehend my path and my lying down,
And are acquainted with all my ways.
4 For there is not a word on my tongue,
But behold, O LORD, You know it altogether.
5 You have hedged me behind and before,
And laid Your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
It is high, I cannot attain it.

7 Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
8 If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
9 If I take the wings of the morning,
And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 Even there Your hand shall lead me,
And Your right hand shall hold me.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall[a] on me,”
Even the night shall be light about me;
12 Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You,
But the night shines as the day;
The darkness and the light are both alike to You.

13 For You formed my inward parts;
You covered me in my mother’s womb.
14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;[b]
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well.
15 My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.
And in Your book they all were written,
The days fashioned for me,
When as yet there were none of them.

17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!
How great is the sum of them!
18 If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand;
When I awake, I am still with You.

19 Oh, that You would slay the wicked, O God!
Depart from me, therefore, you bloodthirsty men.
20 For they speak against You wickedly;
Your enemies take Your name in vain.[c]
21 Do I not hate them, O LORD, who hate You?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
22 I hate them with perfect hatred;
I count them my enemies.

23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me, and know my anxieties;
24 And see if there is any wicked way in me,
And lead me in the way everlasting.

Jonah didn't have any luck with it either--Read the book of Jonah.

Answer 2

He's been known to see all and hear all from what I understand. I'm sure atheists aren't worried or care much about the relevance of this question, but, everyone will someday care about the wrong choices they've made in life?? Wait a minute.... If murderers, rapists, thieves, etc. cared about where their souls final resting place was going to be we wouldn't live in the society we live in today, right?

I guess those who ultimately believe there's a life beyond earth will make the right choices. That's the thing about religion. We're instilled in us at a young age(for those of us who had religious parents) to not sin, which everyone has done, and we'll have a place in heaven when the day comes if we make the right choices by god. But, I've heard a lot of stories about people who've later in life turned to religion when they're near their end when they've had absolutely no faith, belief, or spirituality before. Why is that?? Maybe after they've had time to reflect on their life they have remorse for the wrong choices they've made, and finally believe?

To answer your question..... We can't hide from ourselves. We are who we are: Good, bad or ugly. Whether we choose to believe in a higher power than ourselves is the ultimate question. He's there in every one of us, it's whether we choose to keep him there.
