Friends, God is the source of everything. Since there has never been a case of something coming out of nothing, everything comes out of something, and there must also be a supreme source for all of existence.
That supreme source is God.
To understand who is God we must use our reasoning power. Since all opulence such as power, beauty, renunciation, knowledge, wealth, and fame emanate from God, He must possess them to a greater degree than anyone else. So now all we have to do is find out who is the greatest possessor of the opulence. When we find out that person, we have found out God.
Am I right, I think I am; but it is very difficult to find God.
Please share your views on this.

As far as actually seeing God in our lives, I don't think that is something that we will ever see happen in our lives. The reason that I feel this way is because of the fact that there is no way, in my honest opinion that we will be able to behold something as beautiful as God. However, I also stand by my belief that we see pieces of God in every child that walks this earth because of the fact that all children are beautiful and they are also for a short time innocent of all of the evils of the world.

i used to be a religious person when i was younger but when i entered adolescence thats when my inquiry of my faith started. im in state of bewilderment i dont know what to believe anymore. religious beliefs of ppl from different countries varies. there are many religions like islam, buddhism, taoism and even paganism. i tried reading books such as purpose driven life by rick warren but i cant go on. it seems that i couldnt grasp or find any sense about it. it seems scripted, or made-up confabulation stories by humans. all i need is a proof that would come from God Himself and not just fictions or those things that one doesnt see but blindly believe such exists.

Hi Professor, I've come to the conclusion that we will never perfectly understand God while in human form. We all try but can it be possible for the human mind to truly comprehend the divine? My feelings are that God cannot be separate from us but must be one with all life and that everything in the universe is alive. Although we are all individuals, God is the sum total of the energy that makes up all life. If we are to see God here, we must see him in those around us. We experience God when we feel love and compassion. A great discussion my friend. Blessings.

hi professor I do believe in God and in his being the source of everything, I think as humans it is hard to g rasp the totality'of
Him but I imagine when we get to heaven we will understand better.
I know something does not come out of nothing so there has to'be one source and God is the source. I have faith but often as a human
waver and stumble and pick myself up then when I think he will never
answer my prayer he does but in his own time.But in a crisis when I pray I feel a warmth, a prescence unseen but there and I have seen my guardian angel when I thought we were losing our little girl. she told me it was not her time, b ut sadly four years later she again had pneumonia and although the doctors did all they could she was taken by God. I do believe, I must believe, it is inded difficult to find Him but he is always here somewhere.

That's fun, it's exactly what I was told in elementary school when we were forced to take a religion class. Fortunately as soon as I reached the grade when it stopped being mandatory I could change to a different class
Well, that is your opinion. I can't agree with you on that matter, as it has a very poor and unstable basis that by no means can be demonstrated or even supported in theory, but I'm not going to tell you what to believe in or not, that's up to you

I do believe in this. I was a science teacher in high school before and one time I was asked by a student, of what I believe about the origin of human. Did human originate from Adam and Eve which is according to a religion or do I believe what I am teaching that human came from an organism that evolve to a become a human. It as a tough question, at the same time, I do believe in my religion as a Roman Catholic. But it made me thing it also that day, that what do I really believe?
So I tried to answer my student, that maybe we may not believe that we came from Adam and Eve, and we believe that human came from a small organism, but after a question there is another question, like; "Where did those small organism in which human evolve from, came from?" If ever you find the answer for that another question, then there will be another follow up question to that. I told my students that day, that we may have indefinite series of questions of the origin of things, but there is only one thing that we are sure of and could answer all those questions.... THAT THERE IS ONE POWERFUL SOURCE THAT MADE ALL OF THESE THINGS. And for me that is God.

Yes Sir, I agree to your thoughts and believe that there is a supreme power who is controling everything on this planet. As you said there is nothing which happens without a reason and even science has proved it.
God is within us when we do good work, it's good, when we make someone happy it's God, When we help someone who need it it's God.
Everything we do for good thing is GOD.

Ok. Let's say tha the God is the source of everything.
But, who is the God. Many countries believe in different Gods. Some countries have their own God. I know people that the do not believe in anything. Science says that there is no God, there is Physics and planets.
Personally I believe in ourselves. If you try for something then you can achieve it. If you prey then you get mostly nothing.
Also you are saying it's difficult to find God. You mean actually find it or believe His existance?
