Does God hide himself?

Here's an interesting article -

God would NEVER hide Himself from any of you!

Also try a search for Golden Age Gaia which is how I found the above site ...

All the best!
Very good article. God is found internally through love and quieting the mind and is not an external being separate from us. That is the core understanding of the newer spiritual energy growing in the western world.

Apart from hiding, what is god good at?

Where the hell is god by the way? I'm not talking about logical, scientific or emotional proofs. I'm talking about empirical evidence that all laymen can understand and all scientists can agree on ( like the proof that gravity exists). People claim that God is everywhere, yet God chooses to be invisible, intangible and inaudible. A little suspicious don't you think?

Lots of problems with that link. The closest biblical passage resonating with it is in Acts 17;27

"God intended that they would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us. 28‘For in Him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘- We are His offspring.’ 29Therefore, being offspring of God, we should not think that the Divine Being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by man’s skill and imagination.…"

Yet it is clear from the above that God and mankind are separate and separated, conceptually, physically and spiritually. God does hide himself from the unbeliever. That is why the unbeliever cannot form any coherent argument against God, because he is devoid of power, ability and even sanity in some cases, e.g. Nietzsche. To know God, man must reach out for God and find him. If he sits around waiting for a Damascene vision, it may never come where the sinner is content to wallow in his pride and arrogance but wthout acknowledging divinity. A misguided person may be corrected and reproved by God, but a lazy indolent person who thinks he knows it all should not assume it.

Not suspicious. All good cannot be together with anything bad. And the whole human race is a corrupt lot.
