I believe in God . but my Idea of the God has no human form . for me "God" is the superintelligence that run this universe.There is something definite about this world there is a rythem and order from subatomic level to intergalactic lever . there is a perfect balance between various forces of nature that makes this universe possible .Even a slight change in some quantum parameters might upset the whole scene .So some force controls all these system .That is god.its an intelleignece which cannot be understood by our means.
Jesus never called him as god . he was called by others . He was an humanbeing like all of us . faced all temptaions like we do. a man of flesh and bone . He worked for social justice and help others in their life .irradicate false practice . He was compassion in human form .well If you believe compassion is God then yes I believe in him .
Paradox67: I feel like I've been here before. Maybe it was a dream. In my dream, we tried to help the Christians by presenting them with truth and fact. We just wanted to help them deal with reality. But in my dream they chose to remain in denial and hold on to beliefs that only make sense in a world of fantasy.
Beliefs like:
1.) Jesus died for our sins and is the one true god. 2.) The Easter bunny lays multi-colored eggs for everyone on Easter. 3.) Santa Clause flys around the world on one night every year to deliver presents to all the good little girls and boys.

Actually real Christians do not celebrate Christmas and Easter that way. But othe than that I agree with the point you have made. Maybe not so much the way you said it, lol, but just the same.
If all paths leads to the same place in the end, there would have been no need at all for Jesus to die on the cross.
HealthyLiving: In my perception of reality, the God I have come to know and experience, was revealed to me origionally thru the Bible, yet as I have grown into spiritual maturity, He is now revealed through many different sources.
Perhaps He has designed many ways to interact with the peoples He created? Perhaps He has made many attempts with man, by different means and different Great Masters, to bring man into a relationship with Him? One of good character and showing love to his fellow man. I will not stand in the way of God's desire to accomplish His purpose through any means He deems necessary. Perhaps all paths lead to the same place in the end?
I do not condemn others who journey towards selflessness, compassion, and unconditional love, no matter which name they have given their God. Love One Another! HL

"Bring in [ your idols ] to tell us what is going to happen. Tell us what the former things were, [ past prophetic prophecies ] so that we may consider them and know their final outcome.[ fulfillment ] Or declare to us the things to come, [ future predictive prophecies ] tell us what the future holds, so we may know that you are( real ) gods. Do something, whether good or bad,[ provide evidence ] so that we will be dismayed and filled with fear.[ Isa. 41:22-23] God challenges false religions to predict the future and show its out come to prove the are true god's Only a God who is Omniscient –possesses all knowledge, Omni present-not limited by time and space, Omnipotent-all powerful ,could fulfill the challenge Thus prophecy is a stamp.or means of validity.
"This is what the LORD says-- Israel's King and Redeemer, the LORD Almighty: I am the first and I am the last; apart from me there is no God. Who then is like me? Let him proclaim it.[ God's challenge ] Let him declare and lay out before me what has happened since I established my ancient people,[ Past prophecies ] and what is yet to come-- yes,[ future prophecies ] let him foretell what will come. Do not tremble, do not be afraid. Did I not proclaim this and foretell it long ago?[ predictive prophecy ] You are my witnesses. Is there any God besides me? No, there is no other Rock;Isa 44:6-9
"This is what the LORD says-- your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb: I am the LORD, who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself, who foils the signs of false prophets and makes fools of diviners, who overthrows the learning of the wise and turns it into nonsense, who carries out the words of his servants and fulfills the predictions of his messengers, (the prophets) (Isa 44:24-26)....
There is ONLY ONE God............Remember the former things, those of long ago;[ past prophecies ] I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me Isa 46:9
1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, one mediator also between God and men, himself man, Christ Jesus, 1Co 8:4 Concerning therefore the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is anything in the world, and that there is no God but one. 1Co 8:6 yet to us there is one God,
The true Gods word is fulfilled when he speaks.
"I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not give my glory to another or my praise to idols. See, the former things ( past prophecies) have taken place, and new things I declare; ( future predictions ) before they spring into being I announce them to you."[ Isa 42:8,9 ]
Over 300 Messianic prophecies found in the Old Testament or Tanakh were fulfilled by Messiah Yeshua (Jesus Christ)
God's Testimony about Jesus comes through prophecy...” Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son [ throught Prophecy ]”.[ 1 John 5:9-10 ]
The end result or the prophetic conclusion of the first advent of Christ was Jesus being risen from the dead .God by raisng Jesus fulfills and confirms the OT prophets words and validates Jesus claims and actions
Acts 17:31, Paul told the Athenians, "'For he [ God ] has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man ( Jesus ) he has appointed. HE HAS GIVEN PROOF OF THIS TO ALL MEN BY RAISING HIM ( JESUS ) FROM THE DEAD.
Your accountable to this God like it or NOT you cannot afford to be wrong ...
........ Warning............. If you die without believing in Christ, then your fate will be eternally sealed, because belief in Christ and the gospel must occur on earth before you die (Lk. 16:19-31; Jude 7, 13; 2 Pet. 2:4, 9)..
