    One God or many gods

    Maybe there are different degrees of consciousness in live objects with humans being the highest because of their ability to transcend the natural. It is because we have a God consciousness that makes us special to God. God is a living being and the intelligent designer of our universe. He...

    One God or many gods

    I believe that one of the characteristics of life is to reproduce. Plants are not inanimate objects. They react to sunlight and sound, but do not have a soul. They are totally controlled by natural factors and don't really make decisions.

    An amoeba is a single cell organism that can change its shape. It moves slow compared to other smaller organism. It uses psuedopods to travel and to capture stationary food. If the prey moves too quick, it surrounds the prey and then the prey finds itself inside the amoeba to be digested. How...

    By motivation I mean such things as hunger, escape from danger, thirst, reproduction, etc. While we are at it, how do you explain consciousness, rationalization, creativity, empathy, love, hate, jealousy, free will, etc.?

    What gives the group of cells the motivation and knowledge to form simple light receptors so that they would know which way the light was coming from? I believe, just as you do, that living organisms adapt to their environment, but the human body, as well other animals, is composed of too many...

    One God or many gods

    All scripture is inspired by the Holy Spirit and understanding comes from the Holy Spirit as well. In Matthew 12: 24-30 the Pharisees blasphemed the Holy Spirit because they said that Jesus cast out demons by Beelzebub, the prince of the demons. Jesus then says in verses 31-32: Wherefore, I say...

    Which is more complex and complete, the human body or refrigerator? Would you think that a frig would naturally evolve without a creator? The choice is not that obvious.

    John 14: 6 I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. Only those that acknowledge their sinfulness, repent of their sins, believe and trust in Jesus' death for the forgiveness of sins, and get baptized with the Holy Spirit will have access to the...

    Christians: What does Jesus mean by worshipping God "in spirit and in truth"?

    The Samaritan woman asked Jesus whether one should worship at Jacob's well or the temple in Jerusalem. Jesus replied that the hour cometh when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. In the Old Testament, only the high priest was allowed to enter the Holy of Holies where...

    According to Isaiah 63: 9-10, the Holy Spirit of the Father is referred to as " the angel of His presence". In other words, where His Holy Spirit is, the Father is. Are they two different entities? The answer is no. There is only one entity, the Father. The Holy Spirit of the Father is a tool...

    From a Christian point of view, the particularity that we connect with depends on whether or not we receive His Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not a person but a portal through which the Holy Father can connect to the heart and mind of mankind. Those that receive the Holy Spirit connect with...

    One God or many gods

    * God is Not everywhere. God has a home location - 1st Kings 8:39 - just No ZIP code listed. We as humans have the tendency of viewing everything from a human perspective. Each of us consists of a consciousness that resides in a body. Since the creation, the existence of mankind has been on a...

    One God or many gods

    How can God be everywhere? How can God create out of nothing? How can God know everything you think and feel? How can God transcend time and space? How can God always exist? How can God know everything? How can God direct the past, present, and future? How can God be all powerful By "How can" I...

    John 16: 13-15 (NCV) But when the Spirit of truth comes, he will lead you into all truth. He will not speak his own words, but he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is to come. The Spirit of truth will bring glory to me, because he will take what I have to say and tell it...

    One God or many gods

    When God told Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, it was to test his faith and also, to symbolize the coming event of God the Father sacrificing His Son in order to save us. The Hebrews never practiced sacrificing their children. God did not allow Abraham to sacrifice his son. Romans 4: 3-5 For what...

    God has godlike qualities such as being everywhere at once, knows what everyone is thinking and feeling, can do anything, can create out of nothing, knows everything including past, present, and future, has always existed, is beyond space and time, and can create realities. How can a being have...

    No. This is the one God of the Hebrews of which the Christian Bible speaks about. Acts 4: 12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
