Answer #1

“I don’t know if I believe in God. What should I do?”

You should look into some of the various religions (Christian and non-Christian) including the books upon which they are based. Eventually you will have enough knowledge to formulate your own Belief.

“Does God have His own religion?”

No. Religion is a contrivance of man. Men may place God at the head of their religions but they are still man’s religions.

“How do you define God?”

“Science and God?”

Science may not be able to substantiate Creation and Reality, as it is limited to the physical dimension, but neither can it refute that that is.

God is a Tree

God is a Tree, – We are Its Roots; Its Trunk; Its Branches; Its Buds; and Its Seeds!

“Because the blind man cannot see the moon does not negate the moon’s existence or its effects upon the earth.”

“Has God been around forever? And please don’t use the ‘God invented time’ or ‘God is not confined to the laws of time’ excuses. Because I see a few problems with either answer.”

eternal adj.

Being without beginning or end; existing outside of time.

God exists outside of time and the universe.

We, our physical selves, exist within time and the universe and had a beginning and will have an end.

God is the Alpha and Omega of the universe.

The problems aren’t with either answer but with foundations upon which the questions are based.

Forever doesn’t exist. It is man’s concept because man perceives of time as a “forever” existent.

God exists outside of the universe. God caused the creation of the universe with the instant of the big bang. From that moment time came into being.

Time is finite in going backward but may be infinite in going forward.

Man can’t perceive of the reality in which God IS. By attempting to confine God to our understanding of reality we create the basis for false assumptions.

We are each entitled to our own belief systems. You are entitled to yours and I respect that. In my belief system I don’t accept Jesus and conventional Christian doctrine.

I believe that we are all part of the Fabric of God and that we will all eventually gravitate back into the Oneness of God regardless of the errors that may have occurred along our paths back to that Oneness.

We are because God Is. God Is that we are. We all eventually return to God though by varied paths.

What I believe!

I don’t believe in Heaven! I do believe in reincarnation! (Rebirth of the soul in another body.)

I believe that everyone is part of the spiritual composition/soul of God. The purpose of everyone is to go forth into the earth plane and other planes to “experience” and to ultimately gravitate back into the Oneness of God.

Along their paths of experience/knowledge acquisition, many entities (the spiritual particles of God) choose to enter (incarnate/reincarnate) the earth plane with various goals as purpose.

When the entity’s physical body dies the entity goes back to a state or plane of existence where it considers its immediate past. It judges whether it accomplished those goals that it set out to accomplish and determines in which plane and under what circumstances it may need to incarnate in order to accomplish additional goals on its way back to the Oneness of God.

Essentially, the entity is its own judge as to accomplishments, failures, goals and the circumstances under which it chooses to incarnate.

The above is my opinion and is expounded upon in my treatise A Search For Truth:

We all have and need our own Beliefs! But, we need to acknowledge and understand the Beliefs of others in order to facilitate a peaceful and pleasant cohabitation in this life.

The information given in “A Search For Truth” is given to you simply as an insight into my philosophy and my understanding of this life.

My giving it to you is not an attempt to sway you from your Beliefs, but is the dissemination of additional information upon the sparkle of which foundations are established.

Blessed Be,

From my chosen path I stray, Yet my God any’er turns away; For I have learned – and understand, That where God is – is where I am!

Answer #2

God loves those who come to him as a little child trusting and believing. get a bible and read the book of John. remember He is waiting for us to ask and believe.

Answer #3

I suggest you constantly keep an open mind, and you consider all points of view. Try really examing the real world around you, and then examine the teaching of the church and see which makes more sense about how we came to be here.

The bottom line is, do you believe in the supernatural or do you believe in science?

Answer #4

There will always be doubt until faith grows. Faith is the evidence of what is not seen. You’ve got to get your faith growing. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. I just want to say that you are well on your way because you want to believe. God said that if you seek Him, you will find Him. Ask, believing, and you will receive. There’s no way you can want God and not receive Him. If you accept His Son, then He’s all yours. He’ll never turn anyone away who desires to know Him better. He’ll help you understand, He gives wisdom to all generously and without reproach.

I kinda went through a similar thing, I grew up all my life Christian but had never had a real experience with Him. So I was just kinda going through the motions. After an experience with Him, I desired to know Him better. To get more and more experiences and to feel Him more. So I made it my mission to become a God Chaser. I go to His Word to get better understanding of Him, who He is, what He’s done, what He thinks about certain things, what He promises, etc. Seek and you will find, I promise you. He’ll make Himself known to you. He did it for me:)

Answer #5

Jadee, God came down to us in the form of a man because His love for us was so great. Now it is time to step up to Him. Satan always wants to put a stumbling block before us with doubt and persecution. Take the comment from nebula and foxxy18146, it is meant to cast doubt on your thought. . . I once turned from God and found nothing good was to be found without Him. . . Faith will grow if you feed it daily. . read your Bible and study. . . Attend Church often, Christian Fellowship is good for the mind and soul. . . With growth comes courage of heart and great unstoppable faith.

Answer #6

Everyone doubts God in they’re life. Its came across my mind too. But I couldn’t believe it if I tried. I know better than that. talk to God about it,and read your Bible.

Answer #7

honestly, just go with the flow don’t force yourself into believing it again if you find it dull and monotonous live your life and find yourself and if you chose that you believe in ‘god’ when you find yourself then more power to you but seriously, don’t force yourself back into it or you’ll drop out again, that’s not faith

Answer #8

sweet rnealw, did you just say im challenging her faith? b/c im not, seriously, I respect every religion there is out there im reading the bible currently, but yes I am an athiest I think its swell that you choose to believe in god but don’t say athiests are out to challenge people’s faith that’s ignorant and very prejudice I think jadee shouldn’t force herself into believing because that’s neither faith or true belief so seriously, stop being so ignorant, as long as there are close-minded religious people like you, the world will know no peace.

Answer #9

thank you! very helpful..

Answer #10

My mistake Foxxy. . . . . Be back in a while got to give myself 40 lashes with a wet noodle. . . . . . I edited you out. . . .

Answer #11

How can you have a relationship with God? Jw.

Answer #12

I suggest getting back into the Bible and back into a good Praise-filled, Bible teaching church to get those batteries recharged ! - what I know to be true: God being pure cannot even look upon sin - man, even in his very best state is a sinner - on judgement day, either: your sins are covered by the blood-shed sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross (salvation and only salvation - being a nice person isn’t good enough - even at our very best, we are but filthy rags), and remembered no more or they are not (your sins are not covered) - where God’s great love comes into play is, He provided a WAY (Jesus) for us not to perish and live in Heaven with Him (He certainly didn’t have to do this but did because He loved us so) - if you read carefully John 3:16, this is exactly what it says - each person will either accept or reject, you must decide for yourself and yes, it’s so important, it has eternal consequences - He Loves you and wants you to accept God’s free gift to man - Jesus…Hope this helps you !!
