Does any one really understand what a God is telling u? Does he demand or jus wish his ppl are living good. What is ur god telling u? I do believe in GOD entirely but I don't believe in religions and their sayings.

Foxbrain, if you believe in God entirely, you evidently believe that He is. If you believe He is and that He is Who He says He is, you would believe He has authority and you have a responsibility to Him. I don't understand what you mean by "religions and their sayings" so I'll put my interpretation on that. I do not like the word "religion" for it can cover anything at all, from a basis for belief in God, to obedience to a Church or cult, to any human reasoning, or to any activity of life, such as devotion to football. I am presuming that by "religion" you mean the teachings of various Christian denominations and religions other than those who believe in the living Creator God. For many years I was very religious, obeying every command and rule of the Church, trying to find favour with God. At the age of 22 years, when about to become a nun, I discovered that religion was a curse. I discovered the truth of the Gospel, that God loves me so much that He gave His only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to die for me, paying the penalty for my sin; and that through Him I could become God's child and receive the free gift of eternal life with Him. My life completely changed. I was a completely different person. I asked Christ to be my Lord and to guide me. I read and studied God's Word, the Bible and the Holy Spirit gave me understanding as I read and memorised it. I saw sin as God sees sin and as I surrendered to His control, I experienced victory over temptation. Don't get me wrong: of course I still sin! I still at times choose to go my own way, but I have an Advocate. I have a Saviour. I am guaranteed forgiveness when I acknowledge my sin and repent of it. The price has been paid by Christ, so I am again cleansed. For the last 48 years I have known the REALITY of Christ in my life. I have known the privilege of being a child of a loving heavenly Father. I have experienced His presence in my life: His guidance and His undertaking for me in so many ways. God loves you. God wants the very best for you. God's way is perfect.

Foxbrain, I understand what you say and appreciate your honesty. The difference between us is that I believe the Bible is the Word of God and I live by its teachings. I cannot live any other way.

I totally agree with you!... God loves us all, even we have failures, wrong doings, sins.. He is always there to correct us and guide us because He loves us... Thanks!

I belive God as a being who helps others and takes care of others. I mean exactly i belive LOVE is GOD. And all those who work in love of caring for others. I am not stuck with being chriian or muslim i consider what ppl are for and what they do good for. I c christ as a being who has taught how a man should live. So i repect him as god and also mother thersa. But i dont go thru the ways of either religion with customs like going to sunday churches, or prayers in mecca etc.

Hmm answering this question is simple.GOD is special because he believes in himself(AHAM BRAMHASMI.A Sanskrit saying which mean I'm GOD).Just if you want to believe in the above saying just post this question to your friends "do you believe in yourself?" ask them this question and request them to answer this question by keeping hand on their heart.lets see how many of them say yes.Not even one. God is special Because he believes in himself.so he has got the power to do what ever he want.One more thing which makes GOD special is his ability to create things.
