To The UNKNOWN God

We live in a world where philosophies, concepts, ideas, world views & objective truths penetrate our society, culture, mindsets, lifestyles and "religion". The most important piece of knowledge human beings can attain is what we know about God. With so many of these aspects infecting our thoughts, perspective & lifestyle on our view of God, how do we decide what is true, relevant, or really matters? We live in a time where everyone has a quote, an answer, and belief. So, is truth about God even able to be discovered when so many perspectives and influences infiltrate, block, and/or distort our view of life? Well in the next 5 minutes it takes you to read this, I hope you will find the answer you're looking for.

To say that something is unknowable is to say that it doesn't exist, because if it did exist it would be knowable. There is always a means to discovering truth. That is why philosophy is defined as the pursuit of knowledge. It doesn't seek just to ask questions, but to find the answer to the questions it asks. This is why God's existence is ultimately an irrefutable fact, when you weigh the evidence (for more info just let me know). As we undeniably know that God is real, how do we find out more about Him? How do we know exactly what to believe about Him? Lets go to the basics:

-"God & Man, Creator & Creation, Maker & Made": At the end of the day, aside from all religions, denominations, race, nationalities and cultures this is the case, this is all that really matters: RELATIONSHIP. Religion is man made, which creates a lot of rules and regulations, rituals and routines, by which they profess to know God but in actuality never even meet Him. People, are apart of certain religious groups because it sounds good, or they were born into it, or simply because everyone else is doing it. So claiming to know God, they create a god by making religions, denominations & cults which are based on traditions, cultures, ceremonies, rituals and routines, but none actually have a relationship. They know what to do, but they don't know why they do it, they know what to say but they don't know why they say it.. or to whom. Therefore they put on this form (image) of 'Godliness' but the power of God is denied. They pray 7 times a day, go to every service & maybe know a couple of scriptures based off of what they've heard, but yet God is not with them. They don't know who or what it is they really worship. God is a spirit, so to worship Him you would have to have the same spirit He has, which would ultimately be the truth. Truth is not relative. Its many different spirits and so-called truths but its only ONE absolute truth. I know many want to say "how can there only be 1 right 'religion'." Well how can God be 2 different Gods at the same time? Hindus & Buddhists believe in many Gods, Muslims believe in 1 God, Christians believe in 1 God but in 3 forms. How can God be true if He contradicts Himself? He either is or he isn't. 2+2 is always going to equal 4 so when you have one right answer there is an infinite number of wrong. It's one truth, one spirit, one God so.. Back to the basics "God & Man" (remove religion):

-If God is God "creator of everything" how could he be unknown?

-Did He not create everything and everyone? Is God not God of all?

-Is there anything that you can do to help Him be more or less God?

-Does God need your help in some way?

-Does He live in things created by His creation?

-Does He not give you Life, Breath, and everything in between?

-Is God not in control of everything that happens

-Can someone stop God from being God & doing what He wants to do or mess up His plans?

-Would God not make a way for you to find out who He is, the reason why you are here & what happens later?

If God stopped being God, would we not all perish? The fact that we are even in existence proves that God is real & God is God. If in Him we survive & by him we exist, well shouldn't for Him we live? Are we not His creation? God created us different from any other species, organism & living creature He created. Being that we are made in His image we not ought to think that God is like anything we can create, even in our imagination. We were created out of God's imagination, therefore the effect can't be greater than the cause. Our thoughts about God should be discovered not created. God created us, we don't create God... how we want Him to be, look, feel, or act. Truth exist outside of ourselves, it's up to us to discover it in a world of falsehood. The truth is, there is a creator who is holding you accountable for acknowledging honoring, and glorifying Him, & promises terrible things for those who don't!

Now for those who claim to have a relationship with God what does this really mean? If I'm in a relationship with someone first & foremost that means we have somethings in common, we can "relate". For God to be in "right" relationship with you, "He has to have something in common with you. You shouldn't be looking for what you have in common with Him." The only thing that God can vibe with us on, is the fact that we believe/trust/hope & have faith in Jesus Christ, otherwise we don't have a relationship with God, period. Secondly, He said, Be Holy for I am Holy, be separate, be perfect (mature), depart from iniquity, & don't be of this world. God calls us to reflect His image (glory). What "relationship" does light have with darkness, righteous & unrighteous, sin & purity? None! Lastly, relationships are only developed by mutual love. Nothing can stop God's Love from reaching us, but we cant say we have God, if we don't love(delight/treasure/value) God! If we love Him, we will love the things He loves and hates the things He hates. God loves people and HATES sin! So check your relationship because one day you are going to meet God face to face & He is gone be pretty mad if you've been ignoring His phone calls, and not responding to His texts!

-PEACE & MUCH LOVE TO YA!
