MuttleyLaff:I thought about what Emmanystone said, about questioning, and felt I might be stopping people from asking questions as you have asked me. I consider myself out of order for imposing my bias on Emmanystone. |

MuttleyLaff: If you notice, there are 2 creation accounts, one is talking about physical creation the other spiritual..the talking snake is Ninghishida, people say he was a double agent as his father was from the right side(enki side) and his mother from the left side( Enlil side) of the elohim. He simply represents man's oversabi attitude...the story is about wanting to know everything in the flesh, i.e as humans, but God did not approve of it, so if you want to know you have to die and become spirit, so if man had eaten from the tree of life, he would have known everything without dying. .. So death was the punishment for wanting to know everything while been human.. So the purpose of life basically is to eat from the tree of life and become like God.. But the big question is what is the tree and where can it be found..?? 1 Like |

So reincarnation is man saying "oh God give me anoda chance" and God saying " OK, but you won't remember any bit of your past experience but any test you pass in one life time, you won't have to repeat in your next...but I will keep all your record with you..(pineal gland)...find it...activate it. It will help you.. Go well... |

Emmanystone:Do know that while not obligated, I personally do not shy away from questions asked of me. I generally tend to answer them, and will even on this thread. However, I do want responders to know that there is no obligation to answer questions they don't wish to, such that if a person responds with "God is a spirit", they don't have to explain. Basically, I would like the plenty words people to be mindful of the few word people! |

butterflyl1on:So, to an alcoholic, rum is God. Thanks. |
Re: What Is God? by budaatum: 2:08pm On Feb 22, 2018 |
Emmanystone:I don't mind answering questions. It just wasn't my intention in this thread, as it isn't a "God is....., according to buda" thread. The thread asked a question. You could answer it. |

Re: What Is God? by budaatum: 5:02pm On Feb 22, 2018 |
MuttleyLaff:That was inevitable, and the reason I wanted it kept out of the GoJ thread, and why I placed a single parameter, "what" in the question. The fact is that people have different ideas of god, God, gods. Another is that while they may be figments of the imaginations of some, they are real existing entities to others. You just try convincing a believer that it was not for the grace of their God that they live today, or a non-believer that they would go to hell for not believing in god. Anyway, the thread is there for those interested to participate or not. |

Re: What Is God? by budaatum: 8:38pm On Feb 22, 2018 |
godisgood200:Yes it does. I'll go further and answer the question as if you actually asked it. Budaatum is the moniker of an individual who posts on nairaland. Very simple really. Or don't you think so? |
Re: What Is God? by godisgood200: 11:07pm On Feb 22, 2018 |
budaatum:Okay then. God is the creator, the uncaused first Cause. The infinite, the supreme authority, sovereign over creation. The Only Potentate. Setting up Kingdoms and overthrowing empires. Rules in the armies of heaven, and monsgt the inhabitants of the earth, that no man can ask Him, 'What are you doing?'. His ways are unsearchable and judgements passed finding out. He does as He pleases, only as He pleases. He is the the sole determiner of all things, both men and beast. He determines which sperm cell from your father fertilized your moms Ovum and dtermined that all the other millions die. He determines when and where you are born, your race, your gender and your colour. He chose your parents, your siblings, He decides when you will die. If you can wrap your mind around this^^^^, then>>>>>>>>>>That is WHAT God is 2 Likes 1 Share |

godisgood200:"God, according to godisgood200" That wasn't hard was it. And personally speaking, yours, in my opinion, is better thought out than all the others who posted a view on here. So, thanks. This is a secret, so don't tell anyone please. But if I had a god, this is one thread where I will scream it from the mountaintop, if I were that way inclined, and if anyone questioned me about my god, I will tell them to go suck on something for I do not have to justify my god to anyone! |
