Bible Question: I'm impressed with the understanding my 15 yr old has however I want to be very careful of where he is going with this topic because he is speaking in the raim of what is life and who is recording this of tour life? He feels that there is something out there he wants to know its identity? I told him that is what the average person is trying to figure out what kind of force is it and he thinks to label it is basically limiting our ability to receive it. What is it? Is it a force fill or is it something beyond man imagination of what it is? He thinks it is a force that science and or just the mere name of God doesnot define the force? |
Bible Answer: God did not 'come' from anywhere, he always has existed. He has no beginning and no end. He is the "force" if you will, that all life is derived from. John 1:3 says "All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made." There is no existence or life outside of the powerful hand of God. It excites me that your son is this curious, but there are many out there that would attempt to drive him into vain teachings and searching 'within himself for truth'. Know that anything like that is entirely new age and will ultimately harm him more than anything good it could ever do. God is for sure beyond man's understanding or comprehension. He says in the book of Psalms "My ways are higher than your ways, and My thoughts are higher than your thoughts." We cannot hope to begin to understand Him in fullness except those parts of Him that He allows us to understand through study of His Word. His nature is spread through the entire Bible. The name 'God' does not define the force that He is. God IS the force. But He is a personal Being who desires a personal fellowship with every one of us through His Son Jesus. Does this answer your questions? :) |
