Do you believe in God?

Posted on Jan 5th, 2009 by Duff : Hope for Humanity Duff
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for July 28, 2007:

Okay. I absolutely put my faith in GOD. For those of you who feel the same and have read the Holy Bible... does it say in the Bible that GOD is one? Or does it say in Genesis 1:26 "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:..." So, then, who and what is God? Is GOD possibly many, such as the endless number of cells in our own body, each different, but all working together as one... as a whole. Thinking about the "image" that we were created after, does this image honestly refer to flesh and blood bodies that we drive around aimlessly in? Or, maybe, that image is of a more spiritual nature. Every SOUL has the ability to think freely, feel differently and choose his or her own path. Is it then our SOUL that was created in HIS image? If every soul and every body chose to believe and accept Jesus as our savior and follow the laws of GOD, then will we outlive our bodies and go on eternally without fear of death? Are we not told that we shall enter the eternal kingdom of God? If so, how? In I Corinthians 15:50 "Now I say, Brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God." So, basically, bad news for those of us who place value on our earthly being, as it is written we must leave our bodies behind to enter the Kingdom. My full and honest opinion, without quoting scripture, is that we are all equally important in this world, whether we be humanitarians or serial-killers... we could not do so if we weren't necessary for the fulfillment of God's master plan. Yes, we are all unique and different, but in the grand scheme of things, we are all one. I pray that I will enter this Kingdom, and pray for the whole of humanity on this journey. We will all die, each and every one of us, so don't live in regret... live with a sense of fullfillment and accomplishment... without judgement... fully forgiving... and in peace. Remember, if you are a believer, you will be judged as you have judged, and mercy will be given to the merciful.
