Who is God?
WHO IS GOD?
Some believe God is some unexplainable force that creates and ties everything together, not like an intelligent being, but almost like the gravitational pull that keeps the planets in perfect alignment with one another allowing them to benefit one another but not colliding into each other.
Some believe God is the ultimate ruthless ruler very much similar to that of an ancient roman emperor, or Egyptian pharaoh that makes laws and rules at their will that all others must follow or they will simply be put to death with no questions asked. Ruling through fear.
Then there are those that don’t believe in a God. They believe that the existence of life is made from an accidental explosion that blew everything into perspective mysteriously creating the universe with absolute perfection where the planets are the perfect size and have the perfect gravitational pull to keep the location of the planets in a perfect alignment so that a billion years ago their location can be calculated and the prediction of their location four billion years from now can also be easily calculated. They believe in Karma, what goes around comes around. They also believe in simple dumb luck.
BUT THE TRUTH IS
The relationship between us and God is very much like that of the relationship between a two year old child and their loving father which is a sacred one made of the purest of love that any human can understand and with the strongest form of trust that man can ever have in another. A child relies on their father for guidance, and protection. The father of a child will give his life to provide for his child, giving it food when it hungers and water when it thirsts. Provide clothing so they don’t have to run around naked, and a roof to shelter them from the cold rain and the hot scorching sun. He will lay his life down to save his child from any danger.
The relationship between us and God is very much like that of shepherd and his sheep. The sheep trust and follow the shepherd as he leads them to fields with rich grain and grass to eat and streams to drink. He also protects them from wolves and other predators as well as evil people that would mean them harm. He keeps track of all his sheep so that not one strays from the herd and gets lost. I see GOD exactly like the father of a two year old child and the loving protecting shepherd. The relationship you have with God should be most literally the most sacred and precious relationship you have with anyone. No one should come before God because you are like that two year old that always needs to turn to God for guidance and protection. He is the only one who can give you the answer you are looking for to the questions you have.

Re: Who is God?
Yes, I have to agree with you CUC...there are lots of things on TV that are definitely not the Truth...I just wish more would come to Know who God truly is...it breaks my heart to see the lost...watching those TV shows and believing them instead of going to Church and reading the Bible and knowing who He is.
Take care
Take care
Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my friend? Have you heard He loves you? If not, I'd like to introduce you.

Re: Who is God?
Well I must say as far as TV goes I don't believe TV determines someones fate and whether or not they are saved even though there are a lot of messed up shows on TV that 20 or 30 years ago would have been banned and the general audience that saw even a few moments of them would have been appalled,
Now as far as the lost I just want to briefly throw in that I think there are many Christians that think they are saved that really are not and there are many who I have met that don't really know at least not with a conscious knowledge about who Jesus is as far as what he is really all about and what he stands for but the way they love people and give to others for no reason other than it just makes them feel good and they know it to be the right thing to do they proove through their actions that even though they don't consciously know Jesus they do spiritually listen to him and follow his guidance and I believe they are saved even though they don't read the bible and learn about him specifically.
Anyway that is my quick 2 cents. About all my opinion is worth.
