God is Energy and the forces in nature. Gravitation, Electromagnetism, and the Nuclear forces. Daniel 11:38 "But in his estate shall he honor the God of forces..." Elohim is the earliest word for God, and it is a majestic plural. But there is only one God. Deuteronomy 6:4. "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord". Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only change form. It is eternal. It is also everywhere at the same time, and it is omnipotent. Energy is the husband of the Messiah who is the Lord incarnate and they are one flesh. Genesis 2:24. "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh". Isaiah 54:5-6 "For thy Maker is thine husband...For the Lord hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth..." Our sun/son is the source of Energy for the Universe. Psalm 19:4-5 "...in them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun. Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber..."

Yes! : )

God is not energy. Energy is part of the physical universe. God is Spirit. All things, including energy, were created by Him. And since we have no idea what a spirit is, we have no way to know what God is. He exists apart from matter and energy. But He is not energy.

I believe God is all things

Armageddun Loc: The show me state

God is the uncaused cause because He is "Other" than normal. He is indescribable on a finite level. His very nature, God, means He is the great I Am.
What else would you expect from an entity called God?

Armageddun Loc: The show me state

I am sorry, but that is a false belief. (Pantheism) God is not everything because that would mean everything there is should be worshiped. A rock is not god, yet on Christ the solid rock I stand. Not trying to be a smart-alec, but our words are important.

What is described is blatant ancient heathenism/paganism.

God is separate and apart from His creation.

God is spirit, but He has personality. He has intelligence, wisdom and emotions. The God of the Bible is never described as an impersonal force.

The Biblical example of the Bereans makes this clear, for they are described as having noble character...

¨...they received the Word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily, to see whether these things were so.¨ Acts 17:11 (IOW they practiced spiritual discernment.)

In modernity, it equates only with the New Age Religion and with Eastern Religious Mysticism, i.e., Hinduism, Buddhism - a vast syncretism (or mixing) of numerous religious and philosophical ideas. This has been going on since the creation, and is in direct opposition to the only living God. Eastern religion and mysticism moved West, while Greek philosophy and reason moved East. Today the same process continues, but on a global scale in particular with the internet.

It has some similarities to ancient Gnosticism adopting both its methods and its individual nature. Most often rejecting reason and science, New Age religion more than anything is emotional, filling in for an inner void left by a secular cultures denial of their Creator, and discontent with traditional religious beliefs caused by a rejection of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Modern environmentalism (the Greens) could be broadly classified into New Age religion because of its treatment as a pseudo-religion and deification of Nature. This is part of the continuing process of syncretism moving toward the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy.

Madame Helena P. Blavatsky (1831-1891) co-founder of the Theosophical Society in the 19th century is considered the grandmother of the New Age movement. New Age religion is anti-science and anti-reason. It is traceable to Satan in the Garden of Eden, and the Satanic promise, ¨You will be as God,¨ for they teach progressivism, that they are each progressing toward godhood.

In today's New Age cultish language, Madame Helena P. Blavatsky became the main "channeler" for the Theosophical Society, which, within a few decades, stimulated an ever-splintering amalgam of groups and cults..." all reminiscent of the 4,000 plus year old paganism of Sumer and Akkadia in Mesopotamia.

For as Solomon said, ¨there is nothing new under the sun.¨

The New Age Movement, unlike most formal religions, has no holy text, central organization, membership, formal clergy, geographic center, dogma, creed, etc. They often use mutually exclusive definitions for some of their terms.

Daniel 11:38 describes the god of forces or more accurately the god of fortresses as the god of the anti-Christ.

The god of forces IS not the God of the Bible.

Mr Bombastic

I've always wondered. God created our sense of humor. That being said, can you imagine Him doing a stand-up comic routine? The audience would, literally, die laughing.

4 (KJV)Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

5(KJV)Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.


That verse holds true for both Jesus Christ who said it, and for the sun, for without the sun, there would be no life on earth.
Everything alive owes its existence to the sun and ultimately to the Son (John 14:6).


Sounds close to Astro-theological teachings, mixing the two. It depends on your interpretation sun/son. God sent Jesus, His Son, to live the perfect life we could not and die the death our sins deserve. When we accept Jesus’ sacrifice, we claim eternal life.

That being said; from at least the Egyptian age down to the Gnostic Christians, the sun, along with the moon and other celestial bodies, was viewed as a “guide” into the afterlife. There are multiple religions from Catholicism, Christianity on thru Scientology to Muslim, each giving the receiver what he/she believes for himself/herself. But, I'll preface this, that there is only one religion that says Christ died and was resurrected. Without that resurrection there can be no after life, period.

Spirits are composed of light and heat, both of which are forms of Energy. E=mc2. When we die, we lose weight and heat. Mass, or weight, is also associated with Energy. The Energy in our bodies changes form and Spirits change from breath (inside the body), to wind (outside of the body). Spirits are eternal and the Spirit of God was present at the creation of the Heavens and the Earth. Genesis 1:2. "...And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters". God will take on a temporary body (soul) and will return to Spirit form upon his death.

That's pretty clear, you could say, crystal...

Thou hast it.

Mr Bombastic

And just how, pray tell, do you know this?

The Rock of God is Rock music. "The Lord is my Rock, my strength and my song". It is that Rock that spiritually begat the Messiah. Deuteronomy 32:18. "Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful..." The Rock of God is different than the rock in Christianity. Deuteronomy 32:31. "For their rock is not as our rock..." The prophets prophesied with music. I Samuel 10:5 "...thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a tabret, and a pipe, and a harp, before them: and they shall prophesy".

Mr Bombastic

You're an idiot. But you knew that already.
