So all I can tell you is that when I say God, it means The Ultimate Reality.

So, your claims have now turned into a game of semantics. God = Ultimate Reality is as empty a claim as any other empty claim. It means nothing.

But it isn't empty because this is the monotheist God, and by rejecting this meaning, you are simply being willfully ignorant.

You reduce God to the very gods that monotheists have argued against for centuries. This is the very most fundamnetal premise, and if you don't accept you aren't going to understand anything that follows.


So yeah, it is very important.

The Dictionary is a reference book, do you not understand that?

It is your claims that are empty.

Do you? do you know what reference means?

No, it is the dictionaries claims that are empty. Yet it's a REFERENCE book lol. You are quite a character aren't you? Are "reference books" empty Goldy?

Reference-
the action of mentioning or alluding to something.
the use of a source of information in order to ascertain something.

NOTHIN and empty, eh? lol

Of course, unlike yourself, I can read definitions in a Dictionary and understand them whereas you cannot.

I've even observed you to copy/paste definitions from Dictionaries in your posts and then immediately turn around and ignore them for your own personal made up definition of the same word. The meaning of consciousnesses has been and continues to be a perfect example of that. You completely ignore the definition in order to make up your own definition, referred to earlier as "wishy-washy", which pretty much explains it.

No, it is the dictionaries claims that are empty. Yet it's a REFERENCE book lol. You are quite a character aren't you? Are "reference books" empty Goldy?
As we can see yet again, you're very confused and have no idea what a Dictionary is used. It's a book of reference. It helps to define words so people can understand one another. You, of course, want nothing to do with understanding. It doesn't claim God exist or has any authority in the matter.

Try to keep up.

Merriam-webster literally defines capital G God as The Supreme or Ultimate Reality which is in line with theology, and not simply Christian theology either.


So yes, Ultimate Reality means that God exists, because existence is an essential quality of God. If you make God something that doesn't exist, you are not actually talking about God because God is that which is ultimately real.

You say that the dictionary defines words so that we can understand eachother, and then reject the definition so that there is no understanding. 
You aren't even talking about God, because you are talking about a god or gods.

Lol, I'll wait here while you materialize that.

That's what was said.

Sorry, but those terms do NOT appear in any Christian theology. Fabricating lies will get you nowhere.

Should I wait while you attempt to understand what I wrote or will the universe end before that ever happens? I have idea what you're rambling about. Learn to use the English language, please.

That of course has nothing to do with the vast majority of Christian writings not being in English, yes?


But if you pick up just about any work of Augustine, he makes it very clear that this is God. It's stated pretty clearly in nearly all of his writings.

Then, why aren't you worshiping Augustine if the Bible doesn't support your claims?

The bible certainly supports my claims, but I don't worship the bible. I don't worship the bible because I understand what it is saying. 
The bible is not to be taken as an idol before God.


And I say that with the utmost reverence towards these scriptures.


The letter kills, the spirit gives life.

No, it doesn't. Have you already forgotten the term "Supreme or Ultimate Reality" is not in Scriptures?

Stop lying.

Yet, if you asked a Rabbi the meaning of the name that was given to Moses by God in scripture, you'd get a contrary answer.

The bible wasn't written in English. What we get in English are translations.


Yet for some reason, there is theological consensus on what God means. A consensus that has existed for thousands of years. A consensus you are in vain opposition to.

What is the other main religion? I think Christianity is the ONLY true and correct religion. I would not go on to say that everything Christianity teaches is true and correct and some of the things it practices are surely incorrect.

Nevertheless, it is correct in so far as believing that Jesus is LORD and that he died and rose again from the dead and that there is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved. 

So far as denominations go, any Christian denomination which believes in the Trinity and the Atoning work of Christ through his death on the cross is correct. Hence, cults like the LDS or the JWs or the wacky independent unitarian churches are not Christian in accordance with the traditions of the church.  

but from my point of view, the more denominations, the better. It shows that the church contains thinking people within the framework of its tenants and that is a good thing.

This is an assertion not a question. Why do you think you are right and yet religions must be wrong? Seems a little arrogant to me.

And for this post I'll go with you and agree that Your religion is correct true religion , andvwhat do you know, you are in the correct religious group.

you lack the truth about eastern religions. their religions are about how to meditate to have a sex with a so called goddess. depending on the religion a males lifespan is different.

therefore i ask you in your little world. those religions have been having this knd of sex for thousands of years bcause this sex "is repeatable". is their way of writing their religion right or wrong?
