A god made by their own hands.īut you can't fully understand the GOD of the Bible. They want a god they can see and feel and touch. Most people are not comfortable with an omnipresent GOD. -The Lord Our God is everywhere at once. A 99% GOD is no GOD at all! If your GOD is not present everywhere in the universe, then he is not the GOD of the Bible. Some years ago a certain brand of soap advertised itself as '99 and 44/100th pure.' But GOD knows no such sliding scale with regard to himself.

If we could conceive of even a tiny portion of the universe where GOD is not present, then we might conceive of a being in that locality who is greater than GOD himself. He said in essence that GOD'S perfection demands it. Not a 99% God! - In his classic seven-volume Systematic Theology, Lewis Sperry Chafer advanced the following argument for Omnipresence. The child spelled it, “GOD is n-o-w h-e-r-e-GOD is now here.” It was a truth instead of a lie, and the arrow pierced the man’s own heart.

He had written on a piece of paper, “God is nowhere,” and ordered his child to read it, for he would make him an atheist too. (Spurgeon goes on to say) I heard the story of a man, a blasphemer, profane, an atheist, who was converted singularly by a sinful action of his. HIS circumference is nowhere, but HIS center is everywhere. Charles Spurgeon succinctly defined GOD'S Omnipresence.
