I can understand that men would imagine and even "create" such a being - to kind of fill in the gaps of ignorance and fear, but realistically, no being could every make such a claim because there is the possibility that that being could be wrong.
Perhaps God should say, "I am the All in All - the beginning and the end..."
with the disclaimer: "As far as I know" or "within my observation of the dimensions I am abiding in..."
To say that the human mind is incapable of understanding God's confident reality only begs the question: "Why did God make men so far removed from the reality of God as to make the obviousness of God impossible, in the light of scientific observation?"
It is the supreme irony, if not the supreme joke, is it not?
Nomatter how powerful you think God is, there's always the possibility that there is something MORE powerful, or an alternative. That God would be "uncaused" is an irrational theory that flies in the face of reason.
What if God has a God over Him?

hyuugad...
You don't know your Bible do you?
Scripture says in Psalms, "Though I make my bed in Hell, you are there...
It also says that jesus preached in hell.
Back to the book, sweetie!
There's hope for you yet.

Interesting rant yet highly inaccurate.
Based on study, true believers truly believe. It isn't due to fear of the unknown. Also, is it possible for one who made all things to not have at one point been a part of all things as they are created? If I bake a cake from scratch and add all of the ingredients, have I been everywhere in reference to the cake that I made?
To not believe is your right. Enjoy it while it lasts.
"What if God has a God over Him?"
If this is so, from OUR point of reference God is still our Alpha and Omega.
Just as the Earth is our point of reference when we walk, sleep, drive so forth. The rotation of the earth is what we base our activities on. Not the rotation of the Milky Way that the Earth is a part of.

He does say that if there is any other God, he knows not of it. He stated he is I am that I am so that the people would be able to understand. It linked him to the prophecies.Hes so great at doing that. Also he says " his ways are higher than our ways" Its a possiblity but I aint seen nobody or thing make walls fall down with the sound of a trumpet but him, or give someone strength to beat people with the jawbone of an ***, or make nations great so that they can sustain another people and then when their usefulness was over in addition to not accepting God were they allowed to decline into holding on by their fingernails just to feed their people.

Wow, a heirarchy of Gods. Whowuddathought.
That is a great concept. I have heard of the creation of the human species as a botched idea, a lab experiment of sorts. A childs play.
Let us play around this for a second. A group of aliens landed on earth to dig up materials needed in their world . It is back breaking world. The scientist (lets say Mom) created beings from the animal whose shape is best suited to work- apelike? long arms, brawny shoulders etc. Some were failed experiments like the sasquatch, yeti. She leaves her experiments, child plays with it. Creates the first human.Success. Child is considered a god, so is mom, dad, members of the crew, their boss, etc.

Why did God make men so far removed from the reality of God as to make the obviousness of God impossible, in the light of scientific observation?
To see if they could trust Him by faith alone, and if they cannot, if they do not believe, they are not friends of God, therefore they cannot live in Heaven.
There is nothing more powerful than God. God has no god over him. He is the only one. The King of kings, the Lord of lords.
As for the headline question "Is there someplace God hasn't been?", yes. He has not been in the Hearts of those who haven't accepted him yet. He has not been in Hell, that's WHY it's Hell.

There is an ancient story about the creator God and his judgmental punishing ideas.
After he created the world and the heavens and Hell his mother caught him and admonished him for his cruel and conditionally loving ways.
Seeing what He had done to his creations She took away his power and made him impotent.
This is the same judgmental God that the bible speaks of.
The real God, his mother is unconditionally loving.
Love and blessings Don

Interesting point. Notice that in some instances God did not deny that there were other gods, he just said that worshiping them was wrong.

I don't know if God has a God over Him lol, but considering that just looking at God full in the face will cause you to die in terror and awe, I seriously don't want to know what God's God would look like lol.

God is the all in all as you say. He is the beginning and the end. The alpha and omega. He knows all and not even a hair on your head changes without Him knowing about it.
