High God

Christians, Muslims and Jews world over practice their belief that God is the Supreme Being, absolutely perfect, Who is responsible for creating all the things we have in today's world and for continuing to keep them in existence.

God has made everything that we have in the universe today; the list is infinite but it includes mankind, animals, plants, planets, etc. God keeps everything alive, if He were to stop giving life to all that exists today, everything would vanish faster than we could blink our eyes. Think about it, without God there could be nothing in this Universe.

In him we live and move and have our being" (Acts 17:28). "In him were created all things" (Col. 1:16). "It is he who gives to all men life and breath and all things" (Acts 17:25).

Not a single nation doubts the existence of God because they have an inner belief that intellectually supports God's never-ending existence. Religious history indicates that even the wildest pagans inevitably came to the conclusion that God is the most Supreme Being, Who has the power to control mankind. Even today in many parts of the world there are races that are still living in Stone Age; they don't live by rules or laws but surprisingly they have some kind of god they worship to through prayers and various sacrifices.

When talking about God as the most Supreme Being, it is understood that He is above all creature, the self-existing and infinitely perfect Spirit.

I am the first and I am the last, and besides me there is no god" (Is. 44:6). "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end,' says the Lord God. 'who is and who was and who is coming'" (Apoc.
1:8)

God is purely a spirit, because a spirit is defined as a being that can understand and has free will, but no body, and will exist forever. Since God has no body, we speak assumingly when we talk in terms of His eyes and hands. It's just to make the religion more comprehensive for mankind.

Our Lord said to the Samaritan woman at the well: "God is spirit; and they who worship Him we must worship in spirit and in truth" (John 4:24).

But Christians believe that God has become visible for mankind to see Him. For instance, in the form of a dove at the baptism of Jesus and in the form of tongues of fire on Pentecost. But the truth is that God is not either one of them.

God is self-existing

God is self-existing because His existence is not dependant on any other being. We are totally dependant on God because He made us, but the question arises is that who made God? God said to Moses, "I am who am" (Exod. 3:14). Christians, Muslims, and Jews all believe that He exists by Himself and has no parents. He is also the most supreme because everything else that exists continues to do so because of Him. Without Him we are obviously nothing. Even though we have his three scriptures, the Bible, the Quran and the Torah, the truth is that man will never be able to have a complete knowledge of God.

God is infinitely perfect

God is infinitely perfect because His perfections exist without any form of limit. God is immense and eternal, "an ocean without shore or bottom," the unchangeable Being that only Himself can fully understand: "Of his greatness there is no end" (Ps. 144:3). Some of.....
