Subject: Re: Questions about God!
Throughout the centuries,many have raised questions about God;some either out of curiosity or a sincere desire to understand/know God, and others out of malice or with the aim of proving that there is no God!
In the process,some have arrived at their own conclusions and thus misled many,while others are still searching?
Which leads me to this taunting question,”Can any one understand all about God?” No,not even one.
So,how do we go about understanding God? Just go by what the Bible says! Here is how the Bible deals with some of the questions:
Moses said to God,”suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them,’The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’and they ask me,’What is his name? Then what shall I tell them? God said to Moses,”I AM WHO I AM! This is what you are to say to the Israelites:’I AM has sent me to you.'” (Exodus 3:13-14.
“The secret things belong to the Lord our God,but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever,that we may follow all the words of this law.” (Deuteronomy 29:29.)
“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God,”who is,and who was,and who is to come,the Almighty.” (Revelation 1:8.)
“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8.)
“Philip said,”Lord,show us the Father and that will be enough for us,” Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me,Philip,even after I have been among you such a long time? anyone who has seen me,has seen the Father.” (John 14:8-9.)
“I and the Father are one.” (John 10:30.)
So, the best way to deal with controversial issues, is to thread carefully;yea, to recall what God Himself told His servant Moses,
“Do not come any closer,” God said,Take off your sandals,for the place where you are standing is holy ground.” (Exodus 3:5.)
Have a wonderful and blessed day.

Our mental capacity is so low that we cannot understand GOD so we BELIEVE.
