What did God do that's so great?

The answer I will give you is something you might not expect.

God, the way I see it, is all of the universe including you and me. All of the future and past, all that is seen and not seen, is God.

So, what have you done that is so great?

How can someone be everything? I'm not everything, you're not everything, so what makes him so great

Don't be mad...

Someone can't be everything but someone can be part of everything. God is the everything that you are part of. So, what you do in your life is God doing. I do not believe in the limited bible god, so do not be confused, I am talking about Christianity.

wtf?

You = bullshit

If that is how you wish to see your life, that is fine with me.

If you compare this analogy; god created all things, and has breathed life into it. So we are part of what god is. Would god throw part's of it's self into hell?...It would be like me cutting my arm off and throwing it into hell because it was not perfect...God wouldn't throw part of it's self into hell, and ,my arm shouldn't beg the rest of me to stay...

debbiejo, you seem to believe in god. What makes you think he exists?

Let me pipe in here, her understanding of God is similar to mine. I know this because we have disused it in length. First, God is not a he or she. Secondly, God is the life energy that is the vibration of the universe. Therefore, to ask if God exists is to ask do you exist.

Yep, yep....It the connection of all the visible and invisible, and it's various vibrations that all is, which is what quantum physics talks about. We are all part of it....Energy cannot be destroyed...NEVER, it only changes from one form to another.....Everything is connected at the sub particle level, photons, sooooooooo...we are part of what we would consider god to be....We are parts of it....Just like your cells are part of the "You" as a whole......

Even a bottle of ketchup is god. I'm so relieved.

OH, and that link is long too...I'm reading through it...

And I never said that things just plopped down...I do believe what I would call god is very intelligent....At the sub atomic level of photons there is an intelligence, they think, they react with us visibly and invisibly...It's really cool, and we all, including the bottle of ketchup are made of them..

debbiejo

Yes, the link is long. It is discussing a heavy topic; a lenghty read should be expected. Take your time with it.

About your "private messages," I will send you something. Or, more accurately, ask you for something. Take care.

OK

So, where did you and debbiejo get this idea that we are god or in other words , we are a part of this energy?

Well Shaky is a Buddhist...I started out reading some Quantum physics books and sites, then researched many different spiritual views......I am not a Buddhist however.

Reading about the many experiments done in the quantum wave theories, particle theories really did it for me....Everything made much more since...Everything is connected at the smallest particle photon, there is intelligence to it, we are all part of it, and we can manipulate it or I should say influence it...It's quite interesting....What I would consider a god is much larger than a book or a set of rules...It just wouldn't make since....

Though I was raised Christian and stayed one for many many years......I've since changed my views, of only these people get to heaven, and the rest go to hell.............Just doesn't make since.

I took a test and found that some of my thought comes from what is labled as "New Age" ....But the whole idea of New Age encompasses so much and I really don't know much about that religion or beliefs since I haven't read any books on it.

Were did you get the idea that we are not?

I have always known this.

Well depends who you ask. Ask me and I will tell you that he created the universe that you live in. Gave you the opportunity and life to be asking this question. Has granted that you may wear the clothes on your back and type on the computor before you. But most of all, he gave his one and only son so that you might one day live and party in his presence. In my opinion he is a good God. thumbup

Sounds a bit like your quoting the only faith worth believing in...Star Wars...

"The force is an energy field, it surrounds us, it binds us....."

The Star Wars "force" is loosely based on Buddhism.

Sounds a better system than do as your told or big nasty deity will be unhappy. Or Christianity by its proper title.

That is one of the reasons I became a Buddhist.

I became a realist. Easier to spell.

Oops sorry Christians can't have spells in your forums. What with Magic being a sin.

Oh great, another n00b come to tell us what we can and can not have....

But magic is considered a sin for sure. Though I do believe there are true miracles, and some would consider that magic.

Well I'm sure "magical" moments aren't sins.

You have known this after reading the Buddist scriptures? What makes this different from other religions?

Prove it.

First off,a normal human cannot prove it,you must see a miracle yourself,I don't have to prove it,miracles are happening everyday

If you cannot prove your claim, then you do not know that it is true, you simply believe that it is true.

Your faith is like a shield, with it you can never loose, but it is a heavy shield and with it you can never win.

A shield is meant to protect you duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Sense my metaphors did not help you, I will be straight forward.
Blind faith allows other to control you.

Well then it's a good thing I know for sure

What is the difference between a blind man and one with his eyes closed?

I see...

Reminds me of Oolon Colluphid's controversial trilogy of philosophical blockbusters "Where God went wrong", "Some more of God's greatest mistakes" and "Who is this God Person Anyway".

Who is this god?........Something we can't even discuss, because our knowledge and experience is too limited...Though we are parts of what is, we can never truly understand all there is, but by dieing.

...we can never truly understand all there is, but by dieing.

Some would say even dying won't do it, cuz one hasn't learned enough during one lifetime for the drop to have truly "returned" to the ocean.

I first heard it on the radio play. I would love to have a copy of that radio play.

Becoming the Buddha of love is difficult for those who have mastered being a Buddha of hate.
