1 | Is your God superior to you? | Gen 1:1 | bstudent | 114995 | ||
The Creator is always superior to his creation. Thus, if man "creates" a god, that god will be his inferior. One can ascertain whether a particular interpretation of Scripture is true by asking oneself: Does that interpretation show God to be more or less righteous, just, loving, etc. than me? For example, 1 Samuel 28, the account of Saul going to a practicer of spiritism to inquire of the dead prophet Samuel. Did God actually direct the "spirit" of Samuel to make divine pronouncements to Saul, from whom God had removed his holy spirit (see v.16)? This would be overstepping his own law, violators of which he annihilated from the promised land. (Deut 18:10-12) Who was Saul talking with? A demon! Read the whole account again keeping in mind how Satan misleads people (how about Eve and the serpent) and God's clear view of spiritism. Now you will be able to restore God to his lofty position. There are unfortunately numerous other cases of such misinterpretation resulting in the same tragic reproach on the loving Creator. All can be easily corrected. |

2 | Is your God superior to you? | Gen 1:1 | Rowdy | 122907 | ||
It seems you left out just one small feature out of your statement but no problem. As you say, "All can be easily corrected." You see, a very important and essential element of this picture is the fact the Jesus and the Holy Spirit are definitely part of the Godhead as clearly portrayed in the Genesis account of the creation, at the baptism of Jesus and in John 1. All three of the Godhead have their distinctive roles/function in this relationship with mankind. Of course, it goes without saying that none of these three are superior to the other. Just wanted to throw in my two cents' worth. God bless. --Rowdy |
