I don't know anyone or anything that compares with God. I believe God is perfect. I also believe God created us to have fellowship with us. However, we decided to have fellowship with Satan, that put a separation between God and us. Since man cannot look on the face of God and live, God needed to come to us in another form. That was who Jesus Christ is, God in the flesh of man. It was Jesus' act on the cross of Calvary that restored our relationship with God. However, God is not going to force anyone to be reunited with Him if they don't want to be. So, Jesus sacrifice on the cross is a gift from God. You can accept it and be restored to God, or you can reject it and maintain your relationship with Satan. When Jesus returned to heaven, He set His Holy Spirit to indwell those who accepted Jesus Christ's gift on the cross.

Unlike other creatures, God created man with brain to think and compare. We are lucky if we are able to use our brain to prove something not just to accept.

God begets means He isnt perfect. His revelation rewritten in many different perceiptions means He isnt powerful. That He can be depicted means He isnt beyond compare.
Perfect Lord not only lets us accept His existence but also think.

What concept of god are you speaking of? There have been many concepts of god or gods throughout history so you really need to be more specific. There is no concept of a god that is beyond compare because of the historical nature of belief. To understand today's concept of god it must be viewed in light of what has gone before and how current beliefs have evolved from earlier concepts.

It is not really that simple and any belief in a god or gods is far from logical. The choice to believe in a specific god without any supporting physical evidence is purely subjective. In every society, in every age people have chosen a god or gods as the one deserving belief. There has never been any reason for the choice beyond a cultural need for a uniting common belief.

None can compare God to anything visible or invisible because He is unique, He is perfect and there can be none like Him.

Jesus isn't God, to us, Muslim. He is a Prophet. I don't ask about angel. Maybe you do.

God is beyong compare and he cannot be compared as you would do with a science concept where any logical questions can be asked and proved. Trinity is a concept that can not be answered in full as you would do with any science. Trinity is a concept that can be beleieved. It is a matter of faith. This is how God works to save his lost humanity.

You being humanist, and I can see your point. You want to prove everything before accepting a creed or religion. God is beyong our conmphrension and somethings are beyong our human comprehension and we call this mysteries of God. If you equate God as a person and you are limiting God's power and knowledge.

I can never compare Him to anyone but myself. Because I want the goodness of what He already have. The compassionate him, the merciful one, the one who will protect mankind. He is only one of a kind. He gives me hope when I'm down. He makes me stand up and never give up. He is a loving one in spite of my sinfulness. He always finds way to lead us to the right way were there is righteousness and happiness.
