Man invents God.

The truth is God does not exist. Because that word is merely a substitute word for a name that the translators didnt know. They translated God from the greek word theos. Before that theos had a name. Many names really. Elohim was the first name. After that the name gets mixed up. And no one is really sure what is the right name. my advice to you is to eliminate the god word from your speaking vocabulary. when you read god in the bible, substitute the name Elohim. Elohim will hear you say his name in your mind, and he will find you. because our thoughts are eternal. that is the truth.

God DOES exist, and man finds God on his spiritual walk. God is always there, but man just needs to look for Him.
-
God created man, and since God is omnipresent, God is the One who finds us, for He sends His Holy Spirit to deal with before we are saved to point us to Him, and once we are saved, to keep us close to Him via conviction. Conviction is there for us to realize our sin and do better, thereby acquiring peace and more peace with less sin, and with peace, comes joy, which surpasses the fleeting happiness of the world.

God knows where man is. Man is supposed to seek Him. James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you..... God has already done His part. Now we have to do ours.
-
Seek, and you will be found. "Lord you know my heart, and I will search for yours."

It is apparently man's nature to simplify words so that they are easier to understand. For me, the word god is a generic term that has no meaning whether it is capitalized or not. If you want to give it meaning, then it needs an adjective before the word god to give it specificity. when moses asked for a name, he was told the name can be what ever The Father wants it to be. and i see that as saying it cant be whatever we want it to be. I believe to call Jesus's Father by a generic name is false. I cant believe that Jesus would call his father by a three letter european word, god. I believe we should use the language of the day of Jesus rather than change it to fit today's simplified language. It bothers me intensly that we dont know a satisfactory name for Jesus's Father. the word, God seems so empty to me.

"If God didn't exist, it would be necessary to invent Him." (I forgot to whom this should be attributed!)
-
God already know's where you are. You have to find HIM.
-
"God" is already within. It's your spirit.
-
God calls and man finds.
-
I think man finds nothing and makes up a God to feel like he can make sense of things he cannot understand
-
Man creates god and uses the concept in trying to find himself...
-
Man did not create God for all those who are wondering. Man and God finds eachother at the same time, when they're both ready.
-
Children find things... when we adults allow them the opportunities. We adults do not find anything, we build upon the experience of our culture. Since adults do not permit children to think by themselves and dedicate our "best" effort to indoctrinate them we kill most of the "finders" of our societies.
-
Its a paradox, that goes both ways.
-
Man makes gods up to explain scientific phenomenon he cannot explain and doesn't understand, it just that simple.
-
God is already every where, waiting for us ... and while most people never actually find God, it is for us to seek Him ... since He is already every where, including inside us, it makes sense that we should be seeking the part of God that lives within us, as that is the part of God that we can be closest to/with ...
