U as a black man/woman is a God...
A man and a woman who comes together to bear a child/children makes up the trinity

I know you desire the truth but Instead of asking people who God is why not ask God himself.
Since God is omnipresent He should be able to hear you and reveal Himself to you.

Talk to God in your heart or out loud and be patient. Just wait patiently as you seek Him desperately then He would reveal Himself to you.

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 are reading a translation. 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.

I use He because I want to represent a Dorminant. Not saying God is a Man or a Woman

You don't need to know who He is. You only need to reach out to Him.

Who is God?

God is the uncreated creator, the uncause cause, the writter of time, the head of the immaterial world, the master of the unseen world, the untaught teacher, the unempowered worrior, the beginning and the end. He is a stranger, coming from the hidden wilderness of the unknown, his birth, an unrevealed mysteries of conception. God is just who he is.

To begin with, whenever He
refers to Himself in parental terms, He
always addresses Himself as "Father,"
never "Mother." He calls Himself "a
Father to Israel," and in one instance,
when His "children" were particularly
disrespectful to Him, He said to them, "A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If then I am the Father, where is My honor? And if I am a Master, where is My reverence?"
His prophets acknowledged Him as
Father by saying, "You are our Father, we are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand," and
"do we not all have one Father? Has not
one God created us?" Never once does
God refer to Himself as "Mother" and
never once is He called such by the
prophets to whom He spoke. Calling God
"Mother Nature" is comparable to calling
your earthly father "Mom."

No God is a general name for all of them .. zues, horus, osiris all bear that title God... so he is asking you to identify urs...
Re: Who Is Actually God? by emotional(m): 10:45am On Mar 04, 2015
I regard all the theories, guesses and
speculations of the theologians and metaphysicians regarding the inner
nature of THE ALL(GOD) as but the childish efforts of mortal minds to grasp
the secret of the Infinite. Such efforts have always failed and will always
fail, from the very nature of the task. One pursuing such inquiries travels
around and around in the labyrinth of thought, until he is lost to all sane
reasoning, action or conduct, and is utterly unfitted for the work of life.
He is like the squirrel which frantically runs around and around the
circling treadmill wheel of his cage, traveling ever and yet reaching
nowhere — at the end a prisoner still, and standing just where he
started. 'THE THREE INITIATES'

This is exactly what the ISIS executioners said, WORD FOR WORD, before they removed the heads of those 21 Coptic Christians in Libya.

Gosh!

Why can't Africans show as much obsession with the atom and it's many mysteries as they obsess with this idea of god ?.

Why can't we at least look at the sub-atomic particles , for perhaps, the footprints of this god , so that we may follow and discover him/her/it ?

Isn't enquiry and discovery the best homage we can pay to the supposed architect of the universe that supposedly gave us a brain to think ?
undecided

It is obvious that a supposed creator or the dynamics forces of evolution imbued us with a mind in order for us to ponder on our existence, and then search for truth, not prematurely claim it purely on the basis on the basis of fear and anxiety.

We forget that the worship of gods began at the primacy of our mental development , at our intellectual infancy, when our most primitive and primordial instincts for survival and self-preservation clearly dominated our intellect and reason.

So, are you pondering truth, or are you already claiming it ?
cool

That wasn't my question. I never asked anybody to identify anything.. My question is, 'who is God?' So don't put ideas in people's heads. Just let them say their mind from their own understanding about who God is.

So if He is Allah, I can call Him God instead of Allah. Do u agree with that
