Define God?

By Bill Larson

 

 

Do I believe in God? Of course I do. Can I define God? Absolutely not...for God is indefinable! If God could be defined....then God would not be God.

God has given us, however, very definable goals to continually build on what he has given us.

God gave us the ultimate freedom of choice. How we use or misuse that freedom determines our destiny. God did not declare that man is better than woman...or that woman is better than man.. God did not declare than one color is superior to another color. God has not said that one religion is better than another.

God gave us a level playing field and how we use that field will determine what we shall become, both as individuals and as the human race. We can seek to destroy those we mistakenly perceive as different or we can build toward a future that offers all humankind the opportunity to develop a society of ethics, morals, and tolerance. And it applies to every single human on the face of the earth. It also applies to every religion on the face of the earth.

Unfortunately, too many have decided that they are able to define God. It may well be humankind's greatest mistake.
