Thoughts on the nature of God

by Basel Varsally

Created on: July 12, 2008

All of us know who God is. Billions of us accept the idea that He created everything around us and beyond us. Nothing can escape His Eye. We also believe that he is always there because his consciousness is in all things. But what about his Nature? How does he act, maybe move or even think? When you think about it, the bible and Koran say that God (Allah for Muslims)created Man in his image. If you ask people what this means, many are going to reply that we are created to look like Him. The answer is that it's wrong because if God had a specific image, then He would be existent in all things or cannot shape shift and it would be limiting His abilities. His image is in Nature that surrounds us. But I always wondered: Sometime during Creation, there were some things that cannot be created at the same time. But God picked the right substance which is hydrogen that gave the foundation to our Universe. But there's another thing: Angels. Angels are almost closer to God's Nature because God obviously might abide in a place full of Light and angels are created from light. But since He claims to have have the power to listen to continuous prayers simultaneously and that He can view all of creation (which is very vast almost reaching eternity (the Universe)) then God's Nature is beyond for us to understand.


He can command things by the Word and they take place and He doesn't need to move Himself to create. So the question is: What's the nature of His Mind? How does His Mind act or operate? To be able to understand this we have to understand the infinite. Einstein spend almost all of his years studying the nature of Universe which is basically Life and couldn't have come of the equation that solves everything and lets us know everything. In other words, Life is like a big code with a billion letters and numbers and we need the right mathematical equation. But why math? Well, physicists need math to calculate the speed of light, the speed of a rotation of a star, moment of the big bang, asteroids and pretty much everything. But Lots of scientists said that God's nature could be purely based on Math. For example when you look closely at a snowflake before it's melted, you are looking at a beautiful yet very odd shape. I once started playing in the snow throughout most of my years and when I saw a big snowflake hit the window and I looked at it closely, I said: How can this be even possible? What is going on in the skies? I know how they are created and that's what i learned in science class but how can it take a shape like that? Almost in school and college when you want to be a math teacher or other related jobs, you study the circle, sphere, square and so on. But we live on one of these shapes, Earth. But why everything in the Universe is sphereical and cannot be square or a triangle? Because a sphere is the only shape without a beginning or end. We are created to be suitable for Earth that's why you have a 3D circular head. So in my opinion, the circle might represent the infinity of God. Like He is the Alpha and Omega. Everything you use comes in mathematical shapes. But God lies in the Spiritual void or Heaven or however you want to call it and there's nothing physical lying there; mainly spiritual without a definite shape.
But in my personal opinion, I believe that God's nature could be based on Pure Light. Because Light is the what keeps life going like a spiritual fuel for spiritual entities.
Human Beings' souls are made from such material and it's eternal.
Finally, God's nature can be found maybe throughout creation or even beyond death. But sure someday, when we get to know God and He shows up, we will know His nature eventually.
