Black Spirituality Religion : How do you know that there is a God?

[PLATINUMILLITY1]

In front of all of that....
1. Because of my life
2. because I speak to him

(I know those are first hand)
I think my mind was being practical...and literary(but still with my spiritual influence)

Would you please ask your question slightly clearly?

I wasn't asking a question. I was responding to something you wrote. Your reply to what I wrote didn't have all my words in it. So if that is what you read then I can see your confusion. This is what I wrote.


You cut & pasted this in here before.

I'm saying in the very beginning before anything was formed there just one thing. The ancient Egyptians (Khemitians) described the substance as a liquid as did other ancient societies.(Bantu,Hinduism,Altaic etc.) because of it's familiar formless substance that most ppl can relate to.

This reality of only this and nothing else is what I'm describing. So I agree here 'Therefore, according to science ‘nothingness’ does not exist at all. According to science, the example of ‘nothingness’ is space itself and now the space has also become ‘something’. What I don't agree with is this 'If you are present in the cinema and become the cinema by pervading all over the cinema, the cinema is not a separate object for you and therefore it cannot give entertainment to you.' In my and many others experience when they are sleep and dreaming as I alluded to before without cutting, pasting or referring to religious doctrine that you can be watching the dream see yourself in the dream and be entertained. Wake up and realize you were dreaming. An action not separate from yourself.

Hotep
or should I say
Shantih

or you could have looked a few replies above your reply.

And?

Do you know your mother loves you?

If you have to ask the question you will never know
,was my full answer to this question
and if you asked your mother or daughter, do they love you
they would give the same reply.

The movie "Contact"
astronomer(atheist)(father recently died)"how can you prove there's a God"
clergyman repies"Did you love your father"
astronomer"yes"
clergyman"prove it"

Somethings cannot be put into words!

 

[thePreacher]

Since all the best things in life can not be put into words, the definition of what is real and true, perhaps, should be what we can not know.

Segue ---- sort of. Octavia Butler, a now deceased and brilliant sister-writer, in her Pattern series, describes the Pattern Masters as beings sort of like gods who can communicate mentally, see without eyes, and even exist immortally in some cases. These Pattern Masters refer to "normal" people --- us --- as mutes because, we have eyes but can not see and ears but can not hear.

Mutes, us, are limited to the capabilities of our physical senses. Pattern Masters, by contrast, intuit omnipotence and omniscience from the Pattern, which is the Oneness that ties together All.

Ms. Butler was one brilliant sister who, in all her books, used parables to convey deep esoteric truths.

In her Earthseed series, the heroine defines God as Change, which seems almost contradictory to our holy books until you realize Olamina was saying that we mutes invariably _shape_ god in our own image.

If someone asked Shaper how if she knew God was real, I suspect she might consider that an irrelevant question.

Which is not to say that God is unreal. But rather that, while there is One Divine Being, me talking now, limited mortal minds do not have the capacity to _know_ the Infinite.

How do you know that there is a God?


The straight answer for that, no need of quoting scriptures etc, because he will say that it is some theoretical imagination. The only proof for God is the human incarnation coming into the world, and straightly performing the unimingable miracle and by that He proves the existence of the unimaginable God and also He preaches about the unimaginable God. You are unable to know the unimaginable miracle and He is performing. Neither you analyze nor you perform the miracle. Thus human incarnation is the authority. Jesus told I came to fulfill the statements.

The scriptures are fulfilled by the arrival of the human incarnation. Jesus arose a person who died three days back, no body can do it, that is not possible for an ordinary man. The same Jesus told there is God. You could not analyze this miracle and you could not under stand the miracle, and hence the performer of the miracle is the sole authority in this field. Either you should also perform the miracle and say God does not exist. But you should do it in genuine way. Some body acts as if he is dead and ask him to rise; not like that not magic.

If you can also do and say God doesn’t exits. Then we will agree and we will say that all these scriptures are just bogus. That is why these scientists and atheist fight with miracles. They are only catching their throat. They are always enemies to the miracles. That is the only hard nut for them, if they cross that hard nut then they have won. Scriptures alone cannot stand, unless something is demonstrated it is not proved. That is I why Jesus told I came to fulfill the statement of scripture. I demonstrate or perform the theoretical knowledge preached in the scriptures. Only human incarnation’s miracle is the only answer for these atheist and scientists.

When a man creates, isn't something of the man left within or upon his creation? Even a man's child shows something of himself, in features, character, or both, from the smallest parts to the greatest. The same is for the creation of the Father; He created us all, and has given His image that we may always remember, and has formed the earth of His own will and has left His signs. However, if one does not search these things, nor believe them to be true, they will be invisible to the eyes, and their understanding of it all will suffer.

By our being here, we should know the Father to have always been here, and by the Son coming here, we may know the Father as He does, and have understanding to all these things. This is done by faith to the Anointed, and love of the Father and His Way, the keeping of His commandments, and belief in His Word forever.
