Is God Everywhere? (omnipresent) by Tifunloran: 7:21pm On Oct 22, 2021
God is able to see everything and to act anywhere he chooses. (Proverbs 15:3; Hebrews 4:13) However, the Bible does not teach that God is omnipresent​—that is, present everywhere, in all things. Instead, it shows that he is a person and that he resides in a dwelling place.

God’s form: God is a spirit person. (John 4:​24) He is invisible to humans. (John 1:​18) Visions of God recorded in the Bible consistently portray him as having a distinct location. He is never depicted as existing everywhere.​—Isaiah 6:​1, 2; Revelation 4:​2, 3, 8.

God is the universe itself..

He is called marduk in babylonian religion
Chukwu in igbo
Eledumare in yoruba
Osanobua in benin.


This is marduk with the universe as his garments..

It's funny to see you scavenge through threads that don't concern you reading all you can about Whom you say doesn't exist. That's a lot of folly to cope with. i couldn't open 2 FSM threads or any other silly gods thread even if i was jobless.

Psalms 139 complements Psalms 14:2.

According to Psalms 139 & Psalms 14;2, is God resident on earth?

Don't mind him, he wants to spoil the thread ni.


The one that can teach about the presence is the one that has the experience of what it is. They only talk about the presence, they don't know.


They explain away the real issues of Christianity.

Please can you help me answer these questions:
1. Does God individually hear His children when they pray to Him?
2. If let's say 100 Christians are praying all over the world at the same time (eg. in China, Nigeria, Kuwait, Afghanistan, Japan, Chad...)
How does God individually hear His children when He can only be in one place at a time.

Here is an interesting read:
2Kigs 5:25-27
25 When Gehazi went in and stood before his master, Elisha asked him, “Gehazi, where have you been?” “Your servant did not go anywhere,” he replied. 26 But Elisha questioned him, “Did not my spirit go with you when the man got down from his chariot to meet you? Is this the time to accept money and clothing, olive groves and vineyards, sheep and oxen, menservants and maidservants? 27 Therefore, the leprosy of Naaman will cling to you and your descendants forever!” And as Gehazi left his presence, he was leprous—as white as snow

If a mortal man could seemingly be in two places, how much more God.



Elisha was a mortal man, yet was able to describe each an every gift Gehazi collected from Namman.

Stop asking stupid questions.

How can you beliebe snakes can talk under any circumstances? You don't have a working brain? cheesy

Look right in the mirror, you're the one glaringly asking the stupid questions here. The Bible says no such thing about snakes talking. Use that God given brain of yours, it's starting to atrophy.

The snake was a snake. But Satan used the snake to talk to Eve. Similar to how a ventriloquist would use other objects to appear as though it's speaking.

seems you are person who doesn't have a god and brain here.

Gen. 3:4–5 and 3:22) The serpent has the ability to speak and to reason: "Now the serpent was more subtle (also translated as "cunning"wink than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made".

What about you? Isn't that what you belief? That your own view is the correct one.

The interesting thing is not the fact that someone believes to be right, but their reasons for that belief. And our reasons are in our understanding of the Bible which is working out among the adherent.

The fact that E=mc2 will always outbeat whatever contrary equation because the application is working out

Maybe I'll have sit with my 4-year-old cousin that believe fish, dog, python and barbie can speak. Atleast that is what was portrary to him on the TVs.
He couldn't have known better anyway. Cos' his knowledge of it his limited to that.

Just let him understand that what he’s watching are fictions and that animals don’t talk in reality, whether by ventriloquism or otherwise.
