As everybody is confused about God and his identity, his role, his name, his power. Every one has his own believes, many of us not believe in God, like we all say God knows everything and he can see everything, so this post is for my dear God friend, requesting you to come here on earth and tell us who you are? where you live? your name? your role? your indentity? so that every human beings doubt become clear, because i know everyone doubts will be clear only if you come.

So all hubbers what do you think, will God come here?

  You still didn't say which god, nor where you received your knowledge about your particular god from! Did you inherit your religion from your parents? Or have you studied about all of the present popular religions and merely selected one you feel comfortable with?

  Jesus said, "Knock and the door shall be open to you." Therefore, whatever it is that you want to know...if you really want to know will be revealed to you. It isn't on the outside that you will find the answer but within you.
  
  The best advice I ever got was one that my Mom gave me when she told me, "If you want to know who your spirit guide is then before you go to sleep ask and in a clear statement and the answer will come to you in your dream state." I had a dream about it that my spirit guide came to me and that was that.
  
  Try it, go to sleep with a clear question on your mind and within three nights the answer should come to you. It should only take one night but remember everything happens by the third time at least.
  
  We are 95 percent subconscious and 5 percent conscious. The knowledge of all things is within you. Dive within your subconscious mind and retrieve it.

  I think the important question here is, what if nothing happens? God does not show up? Instead we got the pro and anit god people doing what they do best (arguing). Do you turn from your belief in god since he (she) was/is a no show? Do you make up some excuse for god (s/he was in the bath at the time, or something more believable)? Or do you find some other take on the situation?
  
  The one thing I can say is don't hold your breath if you are expecting a miraculous virgin posting from a divine isp provider or anything so obvious

  I think perhaps this gets to the heart of the problem the believers and atheists have. What you think of as the presence of god, and the fulfillment of your request for his/her presence in your life would not be considered as such by the atheist. No amount of wonder and job and new found friendships etc. will change that disbelieving view. To the atheist this is the beauty of coincidence and even a bit of chaos theory, the result of us living to our natures and not attributable to a god. If we could get past the god part and just seek true connections in life for a greater good (feel free to give god the credit or mankind, the credit is of no importance anyway) we might find less divides us then the wonders that connect us

  As mentioned, there have been many gods claimed to have existed over the years, supplanting each other throughout history. The gods change as civilizations change. Bibles themselves have changed from an Old Testament to a New Testament. It is within these new scriptures that the current god of Christianity has been defined.
  
  In other words, there should be no confusion at all. And yet, there are so many different sects of Christianity alone that have it's members fighting and arguing over this defined god.
  
  Since the gods have changed over the years as civilizations have changed, it isn't likely any gods will be showing up any time soon, or ever. These are man-made gods, contrived to suit the civilization of the times.

  Why do you ask who will descend from heaven -that is to bring the Anointing down to you, or who will go down to the pit and bring the Anointing up to you -- but it says: the word is very close to you, if fact so close, it is in your heart and mouth. Why? So you can actually do what it says. Not so difficult after all.

  He will be back, but remember that He has already done what you asked, and we crucified Him.
  
  His Holy Spirit has remained with us, and anybody can contact Him in a second, problem is, most folk will not do that.
  
  When He was here last in the flesh, He told us that there would be no more signs and wonder shows, so in a way, He pre-empted your question and answered it before you asked it.

  Earth is a testing place, here is external, we all will die either from ages, sickness, being killed, and other causes.
  
  Everything at here is just temporarily, everything is leased to us by God, our knowledge including discoveries, science, and so on, our eyes and our eyesight, our health, our emotions, and so on..everythings...
  
  One day, we will be judged and that day you will be asked, what have you did with your hands, mounth, eyes, wealth, health, times and everythings that you have responsible with.
  
  So friends, if disaster happen, is a test on human faith, remember life on earth is external, do not blame God, for the things happen, good or bad, best or worst, becos afterall, earth is a testing place, live wisely, live faithfully, and be true in our deed.
  
  How could you said i have faith in God, when you only use mouth to say it but not heart and action to commit it. "never said you have faith until you been tested."
  
  Every powers come from God, everything happen on earth is under His authority, therefore anything happen, fire, tornado, earthquake, war, farmine, genocide, and so on.. is for reasons. We work our best to deal any matter that arise in our daily life.
  
  Peace to everyone.

  Friend, its good that you know how fragile life is, but not many people understand like how you understand...
  
  each human understanding level is different compare other
  
  If they understand, they will not waste their time, will not commit adultery, will not commit many other sins, but see, some people their understanding based on mouth only, if they really understand, they will commit on it, appreciate their life and do things that is just and fair.
  
  They continue live wild, commit so many things that totally unjust.
  they ask black magic, they seek witchcraft, they have evils intention on each others, they have greed, lust and so on... they want be powerful, fame, and so on..
  
  But they forgot everythings is belong to God, good and bad, all of them belong to God, they make their wish from demon, rather from God, even the power of demon also come from God, God have allowed demon has certain authority on earth to deceive people. Merely Life is just a test( do not say you have faith unless you been tested).

  Yeah, thanks for dancing around the question without answering it. Since the "demon" has not provided similar examples of mass murder, I would tend to think your god is the one who is the ultimate evil.

  Okay, if you do not know who you are, then you have problems more than anything else you'll ever attempt in your life.
  Our responsibility is to be self responsible about our actions and to hold ourselves accountable. We are to be civilized to one another, so the rest of the world can heal and progress forward to a world where peace can reside.
  
  However, religion throws in a wrinkle, because it automatically causes conflict. Those who are religious(mystical god types) cause conflict every second they open their mouth and speak of god, as though it is something that is real. When the truth of the matter is that there is no living proof of a god ever being in existence.

  Excuse you... "Who you are?" makes no sense. I am me. I love me. I prefer to spend more time with myself. I've found my core understanding of my life and self-realized that there is no god.
  
  I have no questions regarding my life. Therefore, I have no need for a god nor do I have any form of desire to be a god either.
  
  God, the mythic figure is an illusion, which was brought forth to control the masses, because of an pre-conceived notion that humanity is inherently evil at it's core. Too many people believe that if people were to believe god did not exist or found out that god did not exist, then chaos would ensue.

  According to Hume
  
  "'Tis an established maxim in metaphysics, That . . . nothing we imagine is absolutely impossible. We can form the idea of a golden mountain, and from thence conclude that such a mountain may actually exist. We can form no idea of a mountain without a valley, and therefore regard it as impossible."
  
  In other words, Hume is saying that if it can be imagined...it can be possible, and if it is unimaginable...or can't be imagined, then it never would have been discussed in the first place.

@imperial_han - and not slave to your god.
@mohitmisra - do you understand death? Have you ever died? I think I have a better understanding of death than you. I have been dead. There is no difference in a life that goes on after death. To clarify, my life before death was exactly the same as my life now, after my death experience.
The only reason anyone requires a god is to mitigate those things that happen in their life. They are not satisfied with the answers that they can come up with for those happenings.
Get over it! Take it as being what life is all about. Use the energy you expend on talking to your god in a more productive way - perhaps talking sensibly about issues that affect us all and try to come to some educated conclusion.
If it turns out that there is a god then it will be pleased with the results of what you have learned.
If there is no god then you will not have wasted your limited time on earth spouting man-made fallacies at all and sundry.
There is no conclusion to the god or no god argument as there is limited knowledge at play and an impossible conundrum as to how to prove a negative. So much time wasted on trivia. We can all get by without god being at our beck and call. This god does not answer prayers. Why would it? There are so many other better things for it to do!

I tihnk theres a lot to be said for accepting the fact that we don't know and may never know what goes on. Most people tend to want to know everything and this could be a lesson in itself really. Perhaps 'God' (I use it as a broad term be he/she a being or just an energy) visiting earth, could in fact destroy our quest for higher knowledge of life, morals, etc. Which his/her presence would be almost the same as knowing too much about life (ie which religion, which set of rules), and having an instruction manual, in which case, why would you want him here, life would be lifeless if it was a step by step set of instructions. I can understand the problems it would solve, but it would create a further ignorance in my opinion about life. I say this with all due respect to anyone and their opinions, sicne I beleive my point is valid but not absolute.

Wow! just look at all of the above responses. Maybe we should change that name, that label, the word "God" to something which arouses less emotional response. What ever It be: He/She/It, it is something we cannot grasp with our intellect. Still, it seems everyone reaches a certain point in life where they need a life philosophy they can live with. This means of course, no matter what we're told, we'll go on seeking...

Britney,

You are right that the only way to answer the question is for God to come to earth and to tell us who he is.

Nobody will believe who God is, or even if he exists, until they experience just what you said.

C. S. Lewis took on the first part of your question (God coming to earth) in his book "Mere Christianity." Lewis was a very smart guy--a Don at Oxford and a Cambridge Professor who could quote from memory the vast majority of Medieval and Renaissance English works--and he started out as a committed atheist. He didn't finish up that way though. He found convincing evidence to answer your question. Very readable book. Would recommend you give it a look and make up your mind for yourself.

If you prefer exploring things with other people, there's a course called "Alpha" that's offered all over the U.K. Very open to critical discussion, and no topic is off-limits. Once a week for a few weeks. Holy Trinity Brompton church in London offers it, if you happen to be in that area. Also highly recommended.

The answer to the second part of your request has two parts: God telling us who he is, and us hearing him tell us. The resources I mentioned above both talk about what God has told us, so takes on the first half.

The only way for us to be able to hear him, however, is for him to touch us in a way that we can know deep within ourselves that it really is him. He tells us he is love, and that means we need to experience first-hand that he truly loves us to get this final part of the answer.

For me that happened through a combination of feeling his care for me, and objective facts like God healing my wife from diabetes, and my daughter from dyslexia. Both healings came with dramatic changes that couldn't be explained away.

Anyone who has no answer to your question is just speculating. Human speculation has never yet led anyone to "the right" God, nor has it ever ruled out the existence of God. It's all just so much talk.

God has promised he will reveal himself to anyone who is honestly seeking him. I've suggested a couple of practical ways to do this; if you have a better way then go for it. If not, give them a try. If you follow these steps or something like them with a genuine desire to actually find God if he should reveal himself to you, at some point God will reveal himself to you. He loves you very much, and it has nothing to do with you making yourself good enough for him to accept you. He already took care of that when he came to earth.

Blessings,

Jim
