Who Is God?

[OneJack]

The following are from the present-day revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ in the year 2001,

Thus saith the Lord:

WHO IS GOD?

God is the Almighty. To Him, nothing is impossible. From Him comes all things and the life that all people possess. From Him also comes good and evil, light and darkness. No one can live in the world except through Him. It is Him who came in the flesh and will return on the judgement. He is the life and the death, the beginning and the end, the way, the truth, the salvation, the forgiveness, and He is everything.

WHERE DID GOD COME FROM?

No one knows where God came from. Only God can answer that question.

WHY IS IT SAID THAT GOD IS THREE?

There is only one God, but just like people, if a person named Jose has nicknames like Juseng or Use, it's still the same person. It's the same with God. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are one and the same, the Almighty God. He called the incarnate being on earth "Son" to redeem humanity's sins, and He called the guide of people "Holy Spirit". Because people have limited understanding, they wouldn't believe that God is omnipresent, so He gave names to the Son and Holy Spirit. However, some people mistakenly think that God is three.

I will comment on the point 2 and 3.

2. "From" means space, but God did not come from space, for He is above all spaces. But it may be said that He is from eternity.
3. With regard to the idea of three Gods, this, as far as I know, arises from the appearances of the letter of the Old Testament, where God is present as it were in three distinct personalities or persons. In the Gospel, though, there is a stress that those three are one. However, there were differences in understanding as to how exactly they are one. If they are truly understood as one, completely one, then the Son is not an "entity", which has the autonomous being from the Father, for the Lord says that He and the Father are one, and that He who sees Him sees the Father Himself. So, Son is not mere name of distinct entity, but He is the true God and Eternal Life. So, as it then can be seen God is no other than the Lord God Jesus Christ. In that respect, the "three" may understood with reference to that idea, of the Lord Jesus Christ being God, and He that shows the Father, and even, in the Gospel, He sends the Holy Spirit, so the Holy Spirit proceeds out of Him (from the Father in Him). This idea of "three" sounds legit?

In response to item 3, all I can say is the bible is not God, where you are only basing your opinion about God. You can come to God and call on Him, ask Him to teach you who He is and what He wants from us today, things like that, and you'll surely end up nothing in waiting for God to respond to your call.

God is eternal. An eternal being doesn't "come from anywhere." God describes himself as "I AM" and Jesus says, "before Abraham was, I AM." Eternal Creator remains the only explanation in history that satisfies origins and rationally explains universal existence.

According to the Bible, "the heaven of heavens" cannot contain God and in God "we live and move and have our being." There is no other god in human history that remotely matches what the Bible says about God.

There is no historical or other evidence that Jesus is the founder of either Christianity or any other religion. Rather, from a fair historical perspective, Jesus offers free salvation for sinners and is the founder of free quality education for the common masses.

No one can get to know Jesus if people will, by all means, only try their very best to know Jesus through the bible. Unless we all come and call on the Lord and listen to Him when He responds, the chance of knowing Him personally/directly will not come to anyone.

Thus saith the Lord Jesus:

Remember, eternal life and your salvation are in My hands. If you want to be saved, come and draw near to Me. If you want eternal life, come and call upon Me. Trust in Me, because if you don't, you will have no salvation and no eternal life. You will have nowhere to go but to calamity and suffering. But if you draw near to Me, you will attain nothing but peace – peace if you accept it, if you trust in Me, if you believe in Me with all your heart and all your love. Love Me with all your heart, and worship none other but Me, the one and only Lord.
