Impossible to define God outside the context of religion. God breathes and lives through religion. 1 Like |

Stop and think one moment. The name God is not really in the bible. If this is not an English book written by Englishmen, it’s not there; it was added. You will also find that God, whether you have a big G, or little g, is not being used in the singular tense, as Eloh or Allah. The beings spoken of in the bible and Koran are the Elohim, the plural of Eloh. 1 Like |

In one word God is ineffable, anything less may be somewhat inapt. |

How do i define God? God is an energy responsible for the universe and keeping all of its elements working together in harmony. It isn't anthropomorphic so it can't hear or answer prayers neither can it perform miracles or any other superstitions that delusional people do believe. Who is God? The air you breath, that's God. The cool evening breeze that roughens your hair? that's God. The heat from the sun that dries up your wet cloth? that's God. That cool morning dew that dampens the grass in your yard? that's God. The gravity at the center of the earth? that's God. The bright light from the moon that illuminates your room at night? that's God. God is everywhere. God is simply just PURE ENERGY. 1 Like |

basille: How do i define God? There is one of the dangers of defining God outside the context of religion, because you would end up making redundancy of the word energy and you wouldn't make much sense. |

I go with the definition: God is the first Cause which causes all things (directly or indirectly) without itself being caused. |

striktlymi: I go with the definition: God is the first Cause which causes all things (directly or indirectly) without itself being caused. Beautiful nonsense. How can God not have a cause? If God can come from nothing then something can come from nothing 1 Like |

striktlymi: I go with the definition: God is the first Cause which causes all things (directly or indirectly) without itself being caused. Do you realise the general premise the First Cause argument relies on? That there must be a cause for everything. |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by Nobody: 9:26am On Aug 16, 2014 |
TheBigUrban2: Do you even know the difference between "not having a cause" and "something coming from nothing"? |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by Nobody: 9:27am On Aug 16, 2014 |
Kay17: Not true! |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by Kay17: 9:36am On Aug 16, 2014 |
So argue the First Cause and convince the heathens |

striktlymi: If something doesnt have a cause, it came from nothing.......nothing caused it. |

Kay17:This is one of the dangers of not understanding God outside the context of religion, because you would end up with only one inadequate definition of the word energy and thereby continue to exhibit ignorance. 1 Like |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by Nobody: 9:43am On Aug 16, 2014 |
TheBigUrban2: Obviously you don't understand the difference. If "nothing" caused "something" then your "something" has a cause. |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by TheBigUrban2: 9:46am On Aug 16, 2014 |
striktlymi: Stop playing ignorance. Let us cut the story short 1. Does your God come from something else? No 2. Does your God have a cause? No Your God comes from nothing if you accept 1 and 2 |

TheBigUrban2: What is "nothing"? |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by TheBigUrban2: 9:53am On Aug 16, 2014 |
striktlymi: Nice deflection. mtchew |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by Kay17: 9:55am On Aug 16, 2014 |
basille: So why use the word God? Cos God is not a simple word, it has its hidden meaning |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by Nobody: 10:15am On Aug 16, 2014 |
TheBigUrban2: You need to understand the statements you make in order to get you thinking, I believe there is a need to go back to the basics. Again: "What is nothing?" |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by ThaRuthlxx7: 10:42am On Aug 16, 2014 |
GOD is the creator of heaven and the earths. Even the energy y'all talking about is still God... Without God no nairaland |

striktlymi:what hasn't exist in the world is nothing |

ThaRuthlxx7: how would u say God is not written in the bible?? Please re-read my post. Was english used 2000 years ago?. You are reading a translation |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by Nobody: 12:25pm On Aug 16, 2014 |
TheBigUrban2: Hope you now see that whatever comes from nothing already is caused? |
Re: How Do You Defined GOD by basille(m): 1:07pm On Aug 16, 2014 |
Kay17:Let me remind you the topic of the thread again? "How do you define God" Cos God is not a simple word, it has its hidden meaningDifferent meanings you mean? I'm not disputing that the word "God" has different or hidden meaning (to different people) that is why i gave mine in my previous post. God is Energy to my understanding. 1 Like |

basille: How do i define God? Beautiful! To add: no certain "God" exists, be it Jehovah, Obatala or Zeus..these are only human concepts of their understanding of the universe. So when youtalk of god- the creator, we aren't talking of some being in the sky that had a human son in Jerusalem, or an old man living on the highest mountain. There's simply that one body - one body that constitutes all in existence, from the wind to trees, humans to animals, planets to the stars and all space. in short words the entire universe is God itself...you won't find any heaven anywhere in space..unless God is an alien what I mean here is that Energy is the only thing that matters, as matter itself is only condensed energy. This creator doesn't hear, speak or move around(it's already everywhere anyway) but is conscious that is being proactive, reactive and active 2 Likes |
