God is one indivisible! He is the uncreated creator who sustains everything! He begets not nor is begotten! And no one is coequal or comparable to Him! God needs no one to help Him in his Dominion! He is omnipotent and omniscient! He needs no heir or son to inherit him. He has no partner, wife, consort etc. 1 Like |

AntiChristian: If I get you right, "God is A Man ?" I ask because I see you use The Pronouns: "He", "Him" to describe "God" in your context. |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by AntiChristian: 8:50am On Jun 26, 2023 |
MessiahOfAfrica: God is not a man! He is whatever He called Himself! He used those pronouns for Himself and that's what we use for Him! |

The title "GOD" means "SUPREME BEING" However some supernatural beings also want that title so they began doing wonderful things to entice ignorant humans that's how many Gods sufficed but there is just one GOD who is the Creator of all things! 1 Like |

God is a title just like Chief having heirachies The Bible clearly states the One and only true God is the Father who is the God of Gods, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Father is the Highest God who is above all. The Father is the Head God or Almighty 1 Corinthians 8:6 ...'But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; AND one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.' John 17:1-3 ...'Father ... this is life eternal, that they might know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.' 1 Timothy 2:5 ...'For there is one God, AND one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.' John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. Ephesians 1:3 ...'Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.' Ephesians 1:17 ...'That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him.' Revelation 21:22-23 ...'And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty (Father) and the Lamb (Son) are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.' James 1:1 ...'James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.' 2 Peter 1:2 ...'Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God (Father) and of Jesus our Lord.' The head of Christ is God 1 Cor 11:3 1 Like 1 Share |

AntiChristian: If God is Not A Man; Then The Masculine Pronouns Used To Describe God Doesn't Fit. Don't You Think So? For Me; I See "God" As The "Ancient of Days" meaning "God" Is "TIME UNLIMITED" "God" is "Life". "God" is "Nature". Finally; The Bible Puts it That "God" is "Love". God is Spirit. Not Man. And No Pronouns should be used to describe "God". |

MaxInDHouse: Liked, Shared and Followed. Is it right to use pronouns to describe "God" ? |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by AntiChristian: 10:27pm On Jun 26, 2023 |
Our God is unseen! He's neither a spirit nor man! He created all spirits, angels and man! We only qualify Him as He qualified Himself! He used the pronouns "He" "We", "Us" and "I" for Himself and so we use them for him! To Him belongs the most perfect description! Our God is not the ancient of days! He never called Himself by such baseless names! His existence is not dependent on days! MessiahOfAfrica: 3 Likes 1 Share |

MessiahOfAfrica: The title was stolen by rebellious spirit sons of God but since the first human couple joined in the rebellion the true God allowed Satan and other rebellious spirit creatures to have their way for thousands of years. That's why the inhabitants of this earth arrived at many Gods but in reality there is just One God who is the Creator and father of all! |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by MaxInDHouse(m): 3:16am On Jun 27, 2023 |
I believe you will need this: Before Noah's generation there was nothing like kings people lived as families and each of the families take good care of their own house until powerful supernatural beings materialized bodies for themselves and came down to the earth only to have sex with female humans {Genesis 6:1-2} these aliens were cohorts with Satan (a rebellious spirit son of God) |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by MessiahOfAfrica(m): 3:50pm On Jun 28, 2023 |
AntiChristian: Let Me Agree with You That God isn't Spirit Nor Man Like Your First Paragraph Suggests. However, What I'm still confused about is the Idea That You Still Utilize "Him" and "He" to describe "God" which renders All Your Statements To Still Indirectly Point Out That You Mean "God" Is A "Man". I hope you get my point ? |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by MessiahOfAfrica(m): 3:59pm On Jun 28, 2023 |
MaxInDHouse: This is a story to really reminisce on. I'll follow up with the bible verses to read up deeply. Ill ask my questions if I have any. |

MaxInDHouse: Are these Rebellious Sons of God The Same Fallen Angels ? If they are, Do You also mean that Satan is A Rebellious Son of God ? |

MessiahOfAfrica: I only utilise what He used in describing Himself! I wouldn't have used "Him" or "He" if He hadn't used those pronouns for Himself! I hope you get my point too! |

MessiahOfAfrica: To both questions the answer is YES! |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by MessiahOfAfrica(m): 8:54am On Jul 02, 2023 |
AntiChristian: I get your point. This should mean that you understand "God wrote the Bible and The Qur'an with Some Other Religious Books by Himself Right ?" |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by MessiahOfAfrica(m): 9:06am On Jul 02, 2023 |
AntiChristian: In My Own Opinion, I Understand That The BIBLE, Qur'an and Other Religious Books Were Written By Humans Who Ascribed "God" As "He". Most of These Writers are Men. Hence; They Ascribed The Masculine Gender To "God". In My Opinion, Man Created The Concept "God" to be able to explain Life As A MYSTERY. It is Bias and Wrong To Refer To "God" as "HIM" or "HE" while Placing It Totally Wrong For "God" To Be Referred To As "She" or "Her". God Is Not A Man. God is LOVE. God is Good. And This is The Reason "LOVE Is GOOD". |

MaxInDHouse: So, All of The Sufferings, WARS and Bad Happenings of The World Are Being Blamed Upon Satan Who is The Son of God Who Can Actually Stop Him from All of His Evils ? Why Does Such A Good God Allow Evil To Continue To Happen Especially To The Good People of The World Who Tries To Help Other Humanity ? |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by AntiChristian: 9:28am On Jul 02, 2023 |
That's your opinion! MessiahOfAfrica: Unlike other scriptures, the Qur'an is word for word from Allah! God is not man but "He" uses whatever pleases Him to qualify Himself in the Qur'an |

MessiahOfAfrica:There is a case to settle before God can justify the destruction of Satan, demons and rebellious humans. Until that case is settled God can't justify the destruction of all evildoers! |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by MessiahOfAfrica(m): 9:35am On Jul 02, 2023 |
AntiChristian: Okay. Great. So, are you educating me that "Allah" really lived The Surface of The Earth? |
Re: "What Is The TRUE Meaning Of GOD ?" by MessiahOfAfrica(m): 9:38am On Jul 02, 2023 |
