Re: The personality of God.
God has a dominant personality, and thats for sure! Yet if you try to view his dominance as a wrathful aspect of his reality, as if he is bullying his creations or overpowering us by the sheer weight of his power, then you can miss out on understanding his personage. God IS a ruler, he is dominant, but his dominance is ALWAYS based on and expressed by, ALL the fruits of the Spirit! God rules by his Kindness, his Goodness, and all the residents in heaven already know this and are benefiting from it, we humans are just not aware of this at this time.
But now God IS dominant, he is in complette control, inspite of the religious effort to push this free will teaching, its God who is working on the will of man. Phil.2:13;" For IT IS GOD who is at work IN you, BOTH to will and to work." Both our will and our work, or our everyday thinking and living, is being directly influenced and done by God, even unbelief is worked into the human physce by God. Phil. 1:29, even belief in God is given by God, belief in him is not a free will decision. 2Corinth. 5:14, " The Love of Christ CONTROLS US." Gods personality is controlling his creations, NOT allowing them to free will decide as they wish. But to really know how God is, once you have been given an insite to his Love and Goodness, you just Love him back and Love his control. And I want to go into that. Peace. |

Re: The personality of God.
God doesn't have a personality. Only humans do. That's why there is the Trinity. Jesus might've had a personality but God does not!
Mickiel, you have a strong personality and you talk too much! Erin |

Re: The personality of God.
In Revelations 21:3;" And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, " Behold, the tabernacle of God is amoung men, and he shall dwell amoung them, and they shall be his people, and GOD HIMSELF shall be amoung them." Oh what a time this will be, God himself will be with us, certainly connotating that he is NOT yet with us. Far too many religious believers have cried wolf and claim that God is now amoung us, but he most defintely is not. When God moves on this scene, sin and evil will be totally gone. This is our destiny, and God knows this, so all that is now going on is meaningless to God, he will enlighten us when he is ready for that. Which shows a very great Patience that God has.
Generation after generation of humans have suffered, and now we suffer and cry out to God! Yet God waits, he has not made his move. We are in agony, yet still God waits. So then part of Gods personality is patience, self restraint and control. He is enduring and composed. Calm and moderate in his actions. God is cool and easy going, placid and content. And this is the Spirit that will totally engulf all of humanity, and those who God comes close to now, will be personally effected by this in their personality. And I want to touch on that some. Peace. |

Re: The personality of God.
Do you ever even read what you type ? Have you any idea what it is you think you are trying to get people to think you believe ?
Why am I asking you these questions? Because I copy and pasted your desciptions of what you[receive to be " The personality of God." and want others to think you believe The "list" if you will is in the order that you posted as I read down the posts I Copy & Pasted them as I came to them. I do not intend to have a conversation with you on the subject of God . Thats not why I'm asking you these quewstions, please noye my questions are not about God or his personality. My questions are to you ,about you f,or you to explaine about your post. I have not taken anything 'out of context' as I have mentioned they are in the order you posted them in . The three with ?? before and after are preticurlly confusing when applied to the subjct matter of your post. So God has to be withdrawn God is very, VERY patient God is Longsuffering christians have misinterpited God Loves because he likes to Love but who knows whats going on in heaven So God IS NOT like us God is REASONANT I think its really a shame what people have done with the perceived personality of God ??People actually believe that other people can explain how God is.?? God is Gentle Gods wrath is his " Reaction to Sin", When God decided to create humanity, he also created a volitle mixture of Sin, Evil and suffering and death, NONE of these things existed before humans did. So they exist " For our benefit!" Wicked people need Gods blessing to, and I think more than good people do ??the " Spiritual Human" tendency to search for reasons why WE think God should condemn others?? God has a dominant personality But the Fruit of the Spirit,( Or what Gods personality is like), is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self Control." THESE ARE Gods Personality! Listen, THIS IS what God is like. These concepts ARE GOD God WILL Judge, God WILL get angry, God WILL destroy, but based on HIS ways and Means Salvation IS NOT based on the faithfulness of those who remain faithful, its based on the Father, and the Father ALONE! ??We simply do not know the Fathers personality like we think we do.?? Christians who expected God to condemn all the prodical sons of the earth, will be surprised and angry that God will forgive and welcome sinful humanity back to him, and throw a great feast for them. Their hell doctrine will be put to shame , and they themselves will be put to shame. But God Loves them too. So then part of Gods personality is patience, self restraint and control. He is enduring and composed. Calm and moderate in his actions. God is cool and easy going, placid and content. |

Well I don't understand you either. I can't seem to make out what your asking from me. I really do not see what your questions are. In my view, seeing that you do not understand me, and I certainly do not understand anything you are trying to say, I think it best that we just do not talk with each other. I don't see where it could get. If what I have written is causing you any problems or confusion, stop reading it. It just maynot be for you. Peace. |

Re: The personality of God.
I certainly don't want to appear to not wish to dialog with anyone, but I can only reason with the reasonable. And I think this kind of thing is evident of how unreason on spiritual matters have gripped humanity in a very tight grip. People have all kinds of warped things in their belief, its just the truth. Its just a very sad thing. Really sad. Gods true personality has NOT spread into humanity, and THAT is the core reason for mental illness, for sick and perverted views of God, and for all the mental problems that humanity has experienced. BECAUSE God has NOT revealed himself to humanity, humanity suffers from that.
And I want to detour into that, as it relates to what has occured with humanity because God has not shed his personage on humanity. Peace. |

Re: The personality of God.
And good fortune to you on your journey. It is not for all of us to understand each other, there are many people I simply cannot understand, nor agree with. So I simply wish them well and move on. We simply need Gods help in understanding others, goodness, we need his help in trying to understand ourselves as well. But I wish you well and Peace. |
