Who Is God?
With all the Religions, Denominations, and Doctrines in our world it's hard to grasp onto the truth about who God is and what our purpose is for being here upon this Earth in this day...
God has no starting point - God has no finality... He was, He is, and He is to come... He is the Alpha and Omega - the beginning and the end... He knew the day of the battle of Armageddon before the day He Majestically formed the stars and cast them into the Heavens...
God is Omni-Present... He is able to be all places at all times... He was in Heaven (God the Father) and on the Cross (God the Son)... Within you and within me...
God is all Powerful and He is able to keep everything under His control (from the furthest star to (but not limited to) the smallest sparrow and everything in between)...
God is all Knowing... Sorry your not going to pull the wool over God's eyes... You can't Surprise Him or Fool Him You can't Trick Him (although you might like to try) with anything that you can do in your life. "God" being all knowing looks at our lives as if We were looking across our dining room table.
A flat plain with the creation of Heaven and earth on one end of the table and eternity on the other end. He knows all things and there is nothing we can do or think that he doesn't see. Our lives are as an open book to God and He sees all our good and all our evil from the day we were born till the day that we die all at the same time.
We as human beings do not have this knowledge and we need to witness to each and every person that God places upon our heart because we don't know what our witness will be... As a born again - Blood bought child of the Living God it is essential that we use the witness (pick up the cross) that God has for us and walk the path that God has placed before us...
We can do so with total Faith, Confidence, and Knowledge that God is placing those steps ahead of us (preparing the way) each and every day of our lives because God already knows us inside and out...
When you follow Doctrines it's easy to look at God through human eyes, and include our limitations and human frailties to how we see Him, but when you grasp the knowledge of who God really is you can see that Gods way's are not our ways. God is not limited by time or space as we are.
God is so much more than our mortal mind can comprehend... God's Word (The Bible) was inspired by God - written by man - for man... The Bible is just the smallest fraction a "Taste" if you will of the wonderful wonders, mysteries, and knowledge of God... The bottom line is that we can't put God in a box... He is much much more than our human minds can comprehend...
God knows the day that you were to be born... God knows the day that you will die along with the circumstances of your death and God knows every day in between... He knew you before you were born and every hair on your head is numbered. God knows every move your ever going to make before you make it.
Your life is already an open book to God from beginning to end... God has the foreknowledge of everytime you fail Him, stumble or fall... God knows everytime that you witness for Him before you witness...

Jesus Said in John chapter 10 verses 1-9-11-14
`Verily, Verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. I am the door: by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. I am the good shepard: the good shepard giveth His life for the sheep. I am the good shepard, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
We might be scorned, ridiculed, and persecuted... God only knows but we might be cut down in our prime because of our witness, but years later the seed that we planted - God allows to sprout up and grow. The atheist that you witness to today could be a Great Prophet of tomorrow... We don't know but God does... All it takes is a touch of the Masters hand in their life...
God has your Blessings and answered Prayers prepared for you before you ask... After all has been said and done - in the final scheme of things "God knows you Heart"... God already knows everything that youre ever going to do for Him and against Him all the days of your life...
Now that you know who God is... The Eternal question... Is He your God? Keep in mind that God already knows your heart and He knows what your going to do with Him today...
Your not going to trick, fool, or surprise Him...It's as simple as ABC...
A. Admit that youre a sinner... If you don't believe that youre a sinner and that you have sinned against God you can't be saved...
B. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ with all your heart in faith knowing that He was born of a Virgin and lived a perfect life without sin. That He died upon the cross for your sins and in 3 days was supernaturally raised from the tomb in a glorified body and is knocking at your hearts door longing to come in...
C. Commit your life to Him. The big C for Christians is not Cancer but Commitment... There is no ceremony or saying that will replace true Commitment. When Jesus comes into your heart there is a change in your life... Old things are passed away behold all things are made new...
God's commandments are not negotiable... Love the Lord God with all your heart, mind, and soul and Love your neighbor as yourself... The people around you will know that you are a Christian by the way you show Love to your fellow man... You cannot Hate people and Love Jesus... (Hate the sin Love the sinner)... Sorry the Golden rule of Love your neighbor as your self is not negotiable...
Jesus said that He will be Lord of all or He will not be Lord at all... As a Christian - live and walk the path that God has prepared for you... Store up your Treasures in God's storehouse where the moth cannot eat and the thief cannot break in and steal... Pick up your Cross and follow Him and you shall have Treasures (The souls that you have witnessed to) in Heaven...
Who God is in my eyes... No College or Doctorate Degrees... Just an old Layman who has been touched by the Marvelous Amazing Grace, Love, Mercy, and Forgiveness of God... That same Grace is for you today...
