The concept of creation of universe by God as I always say highly religious. Say the God has created the world. Does he control our lives? If so how does he record register all the acts we do?
How do you explain this according to your religion?

there are things which our mind can't understand yet but this don't mean to ignore or unbelive it!
so another question like your one..who created the earth?!
why the sun rises every day and the moon come at night?!
have you ever tried to see this amazing calculations about the sun and the earth and the moon?!
do you know that if the earth was less than 1 cm near from the sun it would be attracted by it and vanishes?!
who adjust the day to be 24 hours exactly?!
who wakes you up after your sleep?!
who grows planets and make it have new fruits?!
who created you and delivers you to life?!
how can you breath?
how can you see by your eyes?!..do you have electronic camera there?!!
how you hear by your ears?!..there is no mic or speackers!
how gave you your brain to think with it?!..have you really thought the right things with it?!
who makes you love and hate?!
there are many more questions so if you can answer any of them i can answer your's!
the fact that god is there and he controls every thing and all these calculations are done by his servants whom we called in islam angels..

Of course creation has always had to do with A Beginner- the Creator. It is sometimes hard for someone to fathomed that, I don't know why.
Does he control our lives? We are not robots, we are at least given a mind of our own, we are free to choose whatever we can, but if we allow God to take control on it, He can. If so how does he record register all the acts we do? He doesnt need any record to register whatever act you do, He owns the entire Milky Way and Beyond, and that is beyond our human comprehension to grasp such as one, at least that was the God I believe in, the God who is proclaimed in the Bible.

Thanks for the response. May I ask a few questions?
In that case, if we do not allow, then God cannot control our lives. Is that correct?

I won't say there is a God. I won't say there is no God either.
But, of this, I am sure. Everything that has been done on Earth has been done by man in the name of God. Yes, I know, now someone will ask me, "Haah, who created the stars? the skies? The earth? the air you breathe?"
My reply: "My friend, I don't care who created them. Ever since I was born, they are here and that's all that matters to me. Nobody has seen anything being created, so why get excited about it and speculate on it? Just enjoy it. It is here, isn't it?"
You will get enough responses to give you a headache, shamikabsb; so, I won't eat your head further.

It is true that I have asked this question. But I have not got any logical or satisfactory answer. All are based on religious faith. But I respect them as they are from a religion.
I completely agree with you when you said that you don't care who created and all that matters is the existence of things.
According to my religion I have a different explanation for these and we do not believe that a supernatural God has created all these. However, it is a very wise statement that everything that has done on earth has been done by a man in the name of God. For example we are born as per an act by our parents. Therefore I accept my parents are to my Gods. But I do not care about the first most ancestor of my parents.
Thanks for sharing!

yes..he does.. and he has a co-creators..no he doesn't control our lives..he give life but not to control our lives...that's why we should think how did we exist in this world..what is the purpose of living??we owe something to the one who creates us..but majority of the people doesn't seems understand why they exist..and they choose the path of evil..the Creator is not a dictator or something you might be thinking..he just want us to be a good person and to follow he's law and doctrines that why the bible is exist..try to read it..it is very interesting..you will see how he create it..
i guess you're not reading a bible..try to go to a site www.angdatingdaan.com, www.theoldpath.com, www.esoriano.wordpress.com try to ask on that site..if your really try to seek an answer to your question

God never controls our life but He has given us the ways and the power to chose among them. now its up to us to chose any of these ways the good or the bad.
these decisions are made on the day to day basis like you need to be somewhere and you promised the person and then you go somewhere else,you cheat someone after saying that you would be faithful to him/her, you lie,steal then absolutely when this world has made its laws and constitutions and if you break them then you are punished and your record is made.
than the Creator, Who has created you has also made a record of your good and bad deeds and on the day of judgment, you will be awarded Paradise or Hell on that record. if you get contended with what you have and don't worry about what you don't have then He will award you like He says"be satisfied with what less I have given you and I will be satisfied with what less noble deeds you have made in the world"
so be satisfied with what you get and happy living

He is the creator of all and He created us not to worship Him because He already has countless angels who worship Him all the time but He created us to see how well we do in this world and then sent us to this earth. then we engaged in the worldly things and money and wealth were the only thing to us.
so,He gave us both ways to see which one we chose and do we value Him or the world more and if He hadn't given us the choice then we would all have been like angels.

ok as a muslim god gave us the choice god not control us yes god created us let us choose between what to do and what not to do .
i will not say that this thing is above your mind cuz i know that will not give you an answer . i will tell you simple example .
if i created a computer can i know what it can do and what it can not do? can i know every little thing inside that computer? i think all my question will lead you to one answer. yes you can.
so the question is not god control us and record every thing you do cuz with no dout if god created us he is able to record and control us.
the question must be did god created us?:) and to answer that i need you to answer me first who created you?

God gave us the brain to think to our act. He doen't control us. We are what we do. If it good we got a blessing and if it bad maybe we get the punishment afterlife. He doesn't need record or what soever cause everything within His reach even a single leaf falling in deepest jungle He knows it. We havd our angel by our side to look after us, meaning the good and bad things we'd done all day are watched by those angel.

God does not control our lives. He gives us free will. He is always open and waiting for us to come and seek Him on our own free will. At the end of your life you will have to answer to Him (judgement day). So do as you wish here on earth but you will still have to answer to God.
