The God Concept ; Part one - is God real?
The question of "Is God real?" has occupied the minds of many intellectuals.
However, the question is impossible to answer without first asking the more direct question; What is God?
Religions around the world use ancient texts such as the bible, the quran, the sumerian tablets, etc, to describe God as they see it.
Most religions manipulate the text to create a mass following, and some religious institutions, like the vatican, are actually more satanic then God-like.
The problem with religion is that it has nothing to do with what we call God...period.
Religious text, however - at least the text that has not been dramatically altered - does carry with it some truth, and yet it is mostly to be taken metaphorically.
In the same way alchemy is supposed to be taken metaphorically.
Religious texts, such as the bible, have much wisdom to offer us.
Yet religion in itself is just an institution which takes this text, and alters it for its own purposes.
Religions such as modern christianity tell us that "God" is a higher dimensional human-like being named "Jesus"; and tell us to bow down to this figure because he is the true God.
However, the letter J was invented in the 1600's , and the man mentioned in the bible who many think of as "Jesus Christ" is actually mentioned as "Yeshua" or "Ben Yosef" , and was called "Hamashiach", meaning "the christed one". The word Christ means anointed, and to be anointed was to be initiated into an order or mystery school, symbolized by having oil rubbed on ones forehead.
If we take the idea of "God" and add on all of our human aspects, of course we will end up with a deity, who probably looks human.
Now, what we have just created in our minds is a deity. We have taken our 3D understanding and applied it unto something that is most high, something that is a part of ourselves (and everything), yet is the highest aspect of all of existence, and so couldn't possibly be a physical being.
I would describe God as a kind of living intelligence, that makes up and is all things....and, to be honest, I wouldn't use the name "God" to describe it.
In Exodus 3:9 - 19, King James Version, Moses asks God what to call himself so that he may be trusted as one who hath speaketh unto God by the Jewish children of egypt, so that he may lead them to their safety, as the Jews are often misplaced.
God, who has appeared to Moses as a light, as a "burning bush", tells Moses "I AM THAT I AM"
What does this mean?
God is saying "I AM", and at the same time God is saying "I AM ALL THAT I AM" , I AM THAT I AM.
Meaning that God is.
God just is.
Everything that we can experience is this same isness, is it not?
Meaning that God is in everything, and is the substance which everything consists of.
God is just conscious energy - high vibrational energy; Akashic intelligence, or the intelligence of the omniverse which lives in each particle.
In the Kybalion, three initiates tell us that " God is infinite living mind....the illumined call it spirit"
God is Infinite Living MInd.
Think about that.
The universe is mental, and God is infinite living mind, or spirit.
God Is not some face in the sky - God is the force which dreamed up the sky, the force which dreamt up space and time...Infinite living mind.
Simultaneously, God is also in the particles which make up the sky.
God is in everything, as a part of God; as Gods dream.
Yet there is also an aspect of God which is Intelligence that is the dreamer.
This is the Infinite Living Mind which dreams up universes.
......And there is a part of you that is God....the real part of you...there is also a part of you that is ego....and that part is the illusion....
To conclude,
It would seem that God is some kind of mysterious force which we know little about, but it is definitely not a man in the sky, and it is something that can be experienced.
So if you are still asking "what is God", just look inside yourself - the kingdom of God awaits you.
Essentially, God is very real, and is the original cause - the ultimate reality.

The next post in this series is: The God Concept; Part Two - is God an entity?
Normally, I wouldn't post on someone's religious post, but your page says "By creating emotive content that initiates critical thought and disscussion...", so... I'll take the opportunity to express some critical thinking. Forgive me if I offend, as that is not my intent.
The bible was created by illiterate goat herders as an oral tradition and was later written down into various stories. Later it was conglomerated into one book by Constantine in his Council of Nicea so he could unify his people (and thus make it easier to rule them) into one religion. Since then, it has been re-worked, re-worded and re-written countless times, not the least of which being the King James Version in the 16th century.
The best evidence of the god, as described in the Bible, NOT existing is the Bible itself. It is the most altered, concocted and conflicted book ever written.
IMHO
If there is one thing that is real then it is God. People fail to believe or even ask this question simply because they don't want to believe it.
yes.
God has no religion.
God is divine love energy.

If God really exist there would be just one religion. If god really loves mankind he will tell the leaders of the religion the true way in serving him in one religion.
We are all atheist when we are born until someone introduces a fictional book and make you believe that its true
People may want to believe or not but since you can distinguish btw bad and good ,just and unjustly then there is devil and God
devil = doer of evil.
evil = e-veil.
e-veil = energy veil
energy veil means veil of illusion
illusion is the opposite of reality, which is the one truth, which is God.
ego is illusion, is evil.
God is reality, is truth.
I remember reading a book by J.D. Salinger where he describes a child drinking milk as God pouring God into God.
God is ______. Fill in the "______" and it's always true.
Before you attempt to answer "Is God Real?", you gotta try to answer "What is real?" first. "Real" is the category, "god" is the instance. Good luck ! :)
