Hi man2sting, I don't think it's possible for us to define God but nevertheless most of us try. We can however only do it for ourselves as we have many different concepts of God. Universal mind is one term I've used, energy is another. Perhaps it's time we got rid of the word God altogether because it certainly doesn't have the same meaning to most people as it did when the word was first coined. Blessings.

It's only words, as Bee Gees sings. To some and to me as well, it's not a good idea to get rid of God, even only the word of Him.

Hi dear,
I think every human being is bought up with a faith connected to God. Whatever region, religion, geographic areas the people are born and bought up, there may be some kind of attachment to God. In many countries, there are different religions and different versions on it. There are countries lead by religious dominations.
In my country itself have many religions and same religion itself having different faith about God. In such a way 99% are by birth belongs to a particular religion and forced/ or destined to believe in that religion and the God what they are beleiving.
A few will change in the course of time but not sure. By natural situations, it happens. But for all, there is an embodiment of God is required. A 'thing' to resemble God is a must for people and in many cases, it transformed to man/women shapes and considered these figures as God.
A few are there applies to various things like, certain trees, stones, sculptures, printed papers etc. Whatever it is, a reflection on to something is required to represent the form of God.
It is almighty, sprarated everywhere and we have defined in our own way in various unlimited ways. But for me I had a clear picture about God, based on my family culture.
But now-a-days, when I start thinking differently, I am reaching somewhere else on this issue. As I am not yet convinced on this matter, could not tell anything at this moment.
The nature - that itself is the God. We have it around. Take the very first moment of creation - we cannot imagine of it only - still, have a try, in such a way if we are going to think we will reach no where. So, this subject is only for discussion only and we can reach some conclusion - which may not true, but the truth is something else, which we are not aware, and we cannot an any time. Our mind is not grown upto that mark.
Regards,
Thank-s

To have something in common maybe not the conclusion of this discussion. But to end up in an awareness that God can be reached by logic it may work.

Father and son, interesting! God is absurd here. I appreciate what you believe, anyway.
Thanks.

To me, God is the real owner of all my businesses, and I am only His business manager, and steward of His blessings. That's why we should use our resources for good, and not for bad.

I appreciate what you believe. If only everybody could regard himself as slave before God. God deserves His dignity.

God is one and only, the Spirit which created everything in the Universe, who takes care of me and gives me all I need when I believe in Him and I pray to Him. I don't care how this sounds, but this is how and what I believe.

That sounds good and would be better if we, not only accept but question, in all things.
Thank you.

man2sting hi God in my words would be doing as he taught us to, being our brothers or sisters keepers, in my words I must hear my compassion for others, my patience with impatient people, my trying to be the best I know how to be.My God is a loving God who expects us to love and care for each other, that is the only thing I can say. I am just one of all his children.

Glad to hear from one of God's children. As for me, I am His slave. We dont have to agree with each other when it comes to belief, do we?

God is Unconditional Love with an IQ off the charts. When I discovered God I realized A bit of the scope of His view. Such vast knowledge and view of everything. I am but a mere ant with my limited and narrow view of it all. Hey, but God is teaching. Just think what I might learn. The prospects are exciting. I once looked at this world as a chaotic mess. I now see that I was so very wrong. This world is a MASTERPIECE!! All the physics add up completely. The people factor does as well. Lots and lots of variables. It's complex. I start to understand. Look around you. Answers surround us all!!

Without God I am nothing. That's God for in my own words. God has a very important role in my life. He is my savior and redeemer. I just know that I should trust in Him. I know that He lives and that He loves me. He loves all of us and wants us to go back to Him.

Thank you.
If only I had a redeemer, I'd surely keep committing sin.
Sorry to say, that's logic.

God is the force around and within us. Definitely something beyond and far greater than anyone and anything in this universe.

Consequently, it is undepicted and what is called one is really one.

god was created by man. He's fake. Before humanity could understand a lot of things like thunder, rain falling from the sky. etc... they had to find a supernatural explanation for these things. So they made up gods. God of rain, god of crops, etc... most have narrowed it down to just one god, they only have one more to go!

Then who creates you, nature? Please don't accept anything seen in the world as being there without its creator, because you don't belive it, do you?
Do you agree that the computer before you is there without anybody creating it? Think.
