John P... asks... >>>>>>It all depends on your definition of God, Pete. Tell me what attributes you claim for God and we can talk about it<<<<<<<<.

Here's some questions:

Is God conscious in the way that we usually understand the word?
(ans Yes and of course man and woman were made in Gods image)

Does God communicate with people using words and understandable concepts?
(ans Sometimes through the prompting/conviction of the Holy Spirit and sometimes by direct spoken word)

Did God write the Bible?
(ans All Bible scripture is by inspiration from God)

Is God really three-in-one? What does that mean?
(ans The Trinity or three in one is God the Father, God the son and God the Holy Spirit who are three pieces of the same pie.. ie all the one God)

Was Jesus a god?
(ans Jesus was God(part of the three in one) in human form)

Did Jesus rise from the dead?
(ans If He didn't then I talk to myself often. The resurrection is the key to us being able to relate to God through Jesus.... Jesus said "The only way to the Father is through me" if he had remained dead then there would be no way to the Father)

Was Jesus the result of a virgin birth?
(ans Yes He was His birth and life on earth were pure and faultless)

Does Satan exist and concern himself with the doings of mankind?
(ans satan does exist and is currently Prince of the earth)

Does God actually respond to the specifics of specific prayers?
(ans To those who know Him, God answers many kinds of prayer... not always in the way expected but always answers)

Do miracles, of the type described in the Bible, still occur? If not, why not? If so, can you give some examples?
(ans Take a look at 'Mikes Healing' here.... 'Mikes Healing' and Testimony. that is of course a personal healing)

Should be Bible be taken literally?
(ans Yes, because it is the history of the people and God)

Why is there so much discrepancy between the message of the Old Testament and the New? Which should a Christian pay attention to?
(ans Obvious answer is that CHRISTians are followers of Christ so the message of the New Testament is the one to live by... The OT is the history and prophesies leading to Christs coming but give some indication of the 'nature' of God) PS OLD Testament and NEW Testament should give a clue there..... both different Covenants with God.
