| | Apologetics Press - In Defense of...God's Plan of Salvation |
 | | If God were a cold, vengeful <<b>bb>>Creatorb>bb>> (as some infidels wrongly assert), He simply could have banished mankind from His divine presence forever, and that would have been the end of the matter. | | | Only man’s wanton rejection of God’s love can put him beyond the practical appropriation of heaven’s offer of mercy and grace. | | | The child of God who remains faithful unto death (Revelation 2:10) is promised a crown of life and eternity in heaven as a result of his faith, his obedience, God’s mercy, and God’s grace (John 14:15; Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 1:5). |

| | They see the Gods of other religions as false; those Gods were created by humans. | | | They believe that the world and its animal species were created by God, fully formed, between the years 4000 and 8000 BCE. | | | The first few chapters of the Book of Genesis, describe how God created Adam from mud. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: God |
| | The world is essentially dependent on God, and this dependence implies (1) that God is the <<b>bb>>Creatorb>bb>> of the world -- the producer of its whole substance; and (2) that its continuance in being at every moment is due to His sustaining power. | | | But there are several varieties of what may be described as virtual Atheism which cannot be dismissed so quickly. | | | Formal dogmatic Atheism is self-refuting, and has never won the reasoned assent of any considerable number of men. |

| | OUR GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD! |
| | No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us" (1 John 4:7-12). | | | God's requirement was that his people love him in verse 12, but to do this they required a particular attitude of heart and mind, which, like circumcision, involved the cutting off of the flesh around the heart so that it was open with nothing hidden. | | | God is concerned that the fatherless child and the widow receive just and proper care from his people because it reflects his character of love. |

| | "I believe that God does judge a society, and that a society that shows so little regard for God's creation in terms of human life and in other ways, is one from which He withdraws His hand of protection," Phillips told Mother Jones. | | | Buchanan's church occupies a time when men were men, women covered their heads when they entered the house of God, and the blood of Christ remained on the hands of the Jews. | | | The reference to a vaguely defined <<b>bb>>Creatorb>bb>> as the source of human rights comes from the Declaration of Independence, whose principal author, Thomas Jefferson, rejected the divinity of Jesus, whom he believed to be the architect of a sublime system of ethics. |

The author argues, convincingly and with a sense of wonder, that the character of a <<b>bb>>creatorb>bb>> is best reflected in what is created. | | | Like love itself, you simply have to take the existence of God on trust - it cannot be objectively proved. | | | Sara Maitland looks at creation, not to see whether God exists at all, because she assumes that God is real, but to look for the evidence or fingerprints of God, which she finds in all sorts of extraordinary places. |

| | How can one God be three persons? - ChristianAnswers.Net |
| | The speaker in this verse is obviously God, and yet He says He has been sent both by The Lord God (that is, the Father) and by His Spirit (that is, the Holy Spirit). | | | Thus, the truth of God's tri-unity is ingrained in man's very nature, but he has often distorted it and substituted a false god in its place. | | | Similarly, men have always felt the need to "see" God in terms of their own experience and understanding, but this knowledge that God must reveal Himself has been distorted into polytheism and idolatry. |

| | Though the word "God" refers mainly to the christian God it is also mainly the word used for a <<b>bb>>creatorb>bb>>. | | | Last year's battle over the inclusion of "under God" in the "Pledge of Allegiance" was surprisingly bitter, as many Christians claimed that removing it would be an injustice to the rich religious history of the nation. | | | For example....In 1861, our Secretary of the Treasury, Salmon P. Chase, started stamping "IN GOD WE TRUST" on all U.S. coins in hopes of warding off the rabid heathenism that, in his opinion, was directly responsible for the Civil War and the impending destruction of the Union. |

| | An introduction to Kya Ishwar mar chuka hai (Is God Dead)? |
| | According to me, the word "god" is used mainly in the sense of "the <<b>bb>>creatorb>bb>> of this world." "God" is regarded as "the omniscient, omnipotent, benevolent <<b>bb>>creatorb>bb>>, maintainer and destroyer of this world." I have stated very clearly that I have used the word "god" in my book in this sense only. | | | Thus, the idea of god cannot be ignored as a harmless superstition It is not possible for rationalists and humanists or for rational humanists, working in a god-dominated cultural atmosphere, to ignore this idea. | | | I have shown that the attitude of a believer towards god is similar to the attitude of a child towards its parents. |

| | <<b>bb>>Creatorb>bb>> God: Information From Answers.com |
| | It is a tenet of Christian faith (Catholic, Orthodox and most Protestant) that God is the <<b>bb>>Creatorb>bb>> of all things from nothing ("from nothing" is usually understood in an absolute sense), and has made Man in the image of God, who by direct interference is also the source of the human soul. | | | The <<b>bb>>creatorb>bb>> god is the divine being that created the universe, according to various traditions and faiths. | | | Hinduism holds that God is the foundation of all being, and that the universe has a definite origin from God; and yet at the ultimate level, all assertions of a distinction between God and creation are meaningless. |
