I am kind of confused...please help:
first of all my family is not religious at all...i have never been to church in my life. but in the past year i have been feeling really spiritual/religious. sometimes i think that maybe im like a descendent/relative of god or something because i feel like i have direct connections with him, like if i walk by a church i feel god's presence. and sometimes i feel like not only do i have connections to him, but i actually think that i am him because of various signs that all lead up to me possibly being god. do you think i could be possessed by god...? i am really confused. i dont know what to say to my family b/c they will think im faking it b/c were not religious. but i honestly feel like i am god sometimes, and that maybe i am realizing that i have a big role to play in life- like doing all the things that god did. is this okay?

God= The Alpha and the Omega
GOd= THe All and the Everything
I am part of the everything and so are you my friend.
So if i am part of the everything and God = Everything
I=God.
You=God
In knowing this logical proof i hope you may see that everything is utterly the way its suppose to be... since we in fact are a part of god.
If you are interesting i suggest zen or buddhism as great starts towards spirituality.
Good Luck Friend.
And may God be With you (Hahaha thats me trying to be funny)
First, a valid syllogism does not depend on the truth of the premises.
The burden of proof is on you to demonstrate that a deity exists and that it is composed of everything.
Does that mean anything to you?
Listen to your body and your mind and most importantly your intuition, do not dismiss what you feel.
The majority of the human race is out of sync with the ongoing change that is affecting the universe and our planet.
Watch the Matrix, watch the nines, Look for work by Michael Tsarion and David Icke and read Bringers of the Dawn by Barbara Marciniak.
We are not all the same, we may inhabit the same form here on Earth but that does not mean we are all alike.
What you feel is your soul awakening, other "Humans" will not feel the same and will dismiss your feelings through no fault of their own, it is only because they are still asleep and have not yet been awoken.
The time may come for them to awaken but it will not happen to everyone because the game isnt meant to be played that way.
Welcome to the uinverses biggest RPG and enjoy every moment of it.
Lastly don't be fooled into thinking that there is only one "God". I use the term God as a creative entity and not the one that is used in religion.
too self involved and greedy.
Organized religion lacks consistancy, although whoever thought of the idea of the Big 'G in the sky and in order to be a good person you send money to "him" had an awesome get-rich-quick scheme and it just keeps raking in the dough.
we are all god.
some of us haven't realised it yet.

OK, so we have: don%%u2019t join a cult, don%%u2019t tell people about it, sit awhile and think about it; for how long? I mean, I%%u2019m god here, shouldn%%u2019t I be doing something? The spiritual mystic talk is all very well for a while but it lacks verve in the long run. It turns out the only people with a plan of what to do about all this come with pHDs and prescription pads.
Yeah, I know it%%u2019s a difficult problem, but do we realise we haven%%u2019t furnished a workable answer here?
Because of this, if the outer sensual perceptions are not overloading the mid brain
"Aladins cave" all feels well in the world.
Thus attaching itself to the worldly signals of inner happiness producing a state of
connection that appears familiar and spiritual.
yours faithfully God.
so follow his senseless way
I ......... AM ...... GOD! x
looks like you have stepped up in a spritiual aspect in your life and your ready to recieve more signs are you develop your spirituality..
Either that, or you're God.
But, while I'm sure at least hundreds of people are diagnosed with having delusions of grandeur every day, even if you combine all religions only a few have actually been God.
I'm not saying it's impossible, but the odds are not in your favor. You should see a shrink.
This is not meant to be offensive, mind you. Just helpful.
Yes, you are God. Nothing in existance is not God. This universe and everything in it is one giant entity. The closer you look at things do the illusions of seperation dissapear.
A book that has helped me tremendously is Conversations with God by Neale Donald walche. Good luck.
Remember that god was created for humans by humans to create political structures and laws.
Enjoy being a god.
I would just like to say that you are not alone. There are many, many people in the world who question their own faith in this way. Also, that God can and does speak to us in many different ways. We are all God. (I am not a religious person in that I don't practice any kind of church religion, although I do absolutely believe that God created our universe). Be open with your heart (it is important that it is not your ego because this can lead to psychological problems) and at all times question with only love and the purest, highest intentions. Go with the flow and see what happens as long as it is a positive and loving experience for you. It is always your choice, you are always the one in control.
I had same feelings, because of signs like me waking up calling up on moses to gather my people or being in a earth quake and see this temple break in half and me waking up laughing so differently like another person. and more fucked up people around me saying I was him.
but who knows, just do whats right and when u die ull know for sure if u was God.
Reality is not a question of perspective, of how you see things which exist by themselves, NO, things exist only inside ourselves, reality is a question of creation, the diference between dreams and when you're wake up are none at all. The world we see at broad daylight is just a product of our imagination as much as dreams. We are god, we define the world's morals, we say what is good and what is wrong, what is beyond the reach of our senses doesn't exist at all.
I hope I was helpfull.
For those of you who call this BS, I feel sorry for you. Sorry that you go about your lives ignoring something so amazing and wonderful just because it won't punch you in the face, and that when the evidence and proof is given, you ignore it, or attempt to disprove it using false or irrelavent information. Look around you. There is more to existance than what you perceive.
Its where after so long of TV shows and such brainwash you, you then start going.
Think about it where is all this dotation money going too! TV shows made to braiwash thats what!
Your not delusional the truth is we all part of "God" or the universe that is if you understand what God actually is.Also your inner being is always connected to the greater all and you are a ccreator in your own life.you feel like you are god cause you inner being is starting to allign with the universe and greater all. a true spiritual connection with teh creator. in truth we are all creators of our own reality... and what you hence feel is yoru translation of this truth...
I could recomend a series of books to you that will answer all your questions, what you are feeling is normal and its your connection with the universe that allows you to feel what you do. in order to understand better , i recomend you research the "Teachings of Abraham" through jerry and esther hicks. their books ask and it is given, the astonishing power of emotions will explain your connection to the higher power , who we are, where we came from.
you can also find some of it on youtube. i suggest you keep an open mind. take what you will of these findings , after all it is yoru life path and you blessed with a WILL of your own and as such the ability to choose your own truth...... SerenityG :-)
Tell you want though; prove it to James Randi and you'll get a million dollars. Show me your cheque from James Randi and I'll bow down to you myself. Randi has a million dollar cheque in his pocket at al times. He spends allot of time debunking psychics. Usually, as soon as he sets up a way to test wheather or not they're faking it, they start making up excuses for why they can't do it. NO ONE has won the million dollars yet.
God Bless <3
in case you haven't heard let me sum it up for you.
1. Randi is a moron
2. it seems that due to clever wording in the contract, he is able to draw conditions that are unwinnable
3. there is much suspicion on the matter of the value of the bonds, so even in the event of hell freezing over and you do win, you may not get anywhere near the promised amount.
please go to http://www.psipog.net/art-beware-pseudo-skepticism.html for more on that.
that said, I have a hard time believing you're god, maybe you learn about the occult and actually try to find the spirit realm if you really believe this.
"Man, know thyself and you will know the Universe and the Gods"
God is incognisible, so you cannot be God, but you can have an afinity for the spiritual, so you can keep investigating, I recommend you dont join a religious cult, they brain wash you. Although you can join one temporarily in order to learn things, but I personally prefer reading and meditating.
Meditating is the spiritual practice by excelence, because God incorporated all the mysteries of the universe in our souls.

GOOD LUCK.

you stand true and strong in your believes as they have a perpose, we need to wake-up other dudes to the reality that you are inquestioning which is the correct path, you stay strong. the only reason that your possey are unfamiliar with the church's crew is because its truths need evolving. and you ignore these peps about that you are talking rub. they are the ones, without you bothering downloading there st... you stay strong to your thoughts. you are cool, and do your thing,... no matter what, there is more to this.... if you wana know more then please contact... okay!"!!lya

I dont think your god, you could be a dicendant of christ thow, Mary may have been a virgin when she gave birht to christ, but she ws marid to joseph for years! there was no way on earth they didnt shag later on in life!
Well you'll never get the prize or my worship with that attitude.
Here's what always happens;
1)Psychic does a trick
2)James Randi figures out how it was done
3)Randi sets up a test
4)Psychic makes up excuses for why it can't be done
And sometimes;
5)Randi sets up another test
6) Psychic makes up MORE excuses he/she didn't mention BEFORE.
(except for a few frauds)
1. There are LOTS of divine beings possibly afecting our lives. From experince I judge that they have a sick sense of humor, and a taste for strange stories.
2. For all I know, you COULD have a special connection with THEM, but it's no picnic, so, unless you've no other choice, cut them off.
For the record, I was an atheist all my life until 10 years ago when I had a vision of Jesus. However, I did not suddenly become a Christian and have not done so to this day. If anything, I am Buddhist %%u2013 Which, I guess, sort of means that I am also God.
Strange world, isn%%u2019t it? Please try ready some books by Rajnish Chandra Mohan (Osho). He was a clever guy (until he was bumped off by the CIA). Maybe he has / had all the answers.
before determining wether you are it or not.... or a part of it...
some ideas....
maybe God is the creator of all things...
not in some ancient Big Bang.... but right now 'in real time'
God is also perhaps... omni present....
so does that mean God is everywhere in everything... every atom every molecule...even the molecules of your face... nose and eyes... is God infact Everything...
maybe God is the ONLY thing we have every experienced...... God is ALL the experiences you have had.... God is existence itself.
Could we say.... existence itself is ALIVE...
that the whole of everything... is actually a single living entity....
as you are reading your computer screen.... thats right looking at the words.... hello..
maybe infact.... you have never experienced anything other than GOD.
if that is the case..... there are two things only...
1. that which is experiencing
2. that which is experienced
perhaps there isnt really two afterall....
andthe experience and the experiencer are a single entity.....
GOD.
I think this is a multi dimentional world...
you can experience... A N Y T H I N G....
like the world blowing up, or the global colaps of finance.... or how about... mankind begins to recognise his true spiritual nature... and Paradise arives on earth...
I consider YOU can have ANYTHING...in YOUR world... the whole thing is completely YOURS...
I got one too.....
We have all got one....
paradise for me....
Where are you taking yours.... ?
:o)

Don't be fooled. Many atheists have been immunised against this kind of thing becuase they experienced religious indoctrination as children and were able to reject it. Your parents have helped you immensely by giving you a religion-free upbringing, but the disadvantage is this lack of exposure to the religious mind-virus and therefore you are currently vulnerable to it.
Thinking you may be God is actually a sensible question to ask and goes right back to the roots of philosophy, indeed logically there is a real risk that "I" is god, it goes back to "I think therefore I am".
I suggest going and reading about secular philosophy and about the how religion works. There are some great books out there. Try Dawkins "the God Delusion" and "God is not great". There are many other great books too, but make sure they are properly referenced and the writers do not have vested interests - like they are members of a religion, make sure they are scientific and have an understanding of logic and evidence based thinking.
Finally realise that chemical changes in the brain, permanent or temporary can have a dramatic effect on the brain and how we feel. You wouldn't believe how strong depression can feel until you have experienced it. Your feelings may be spurred by some such temporary imbalance, so give it time to pass.
Steven Sadlier has a book out called Christ Enlightened. It is a historical overview of religious origins and how they have changed over the last couple thousand years, and it describes a Christianity very different from the doctrine that exists today. In my opinion, any true Christian would want to learn more about Jesus--the God/man they put all of their faith in.
Another book I'd recommend is called You Are God, Get Over It, written by Story Waters. This book gives you a lot of ideas...a lot to ponder over.
This post isn't necessarily for the OP because I believe he/she is already gaining some understanding of their path...a lot of comments above me were stating the very same things I was feeling and wanted to express.
To the rest of you: you don't NEED to be afraid (My mother, a devout Christian, once told me she was afraid to read any other spiritual ideas as she might become confused and questioning of her faith!). Anyway, your existence and choice in this life is neither better or worse than mine. There is nothing wrong with seeking knowledge, thought and choice. Don't let anyone tell you what to believe. Even a Christian, with all the judgments people throw at them, would experience a level of awakening when they open up their hearts to the love and wisdom of God(higher self, universe).
"The Kingdom of Heaven lies Within."
i think that it would help if you start reading the bible and go to church and that should get you started.
crist is the truth and the way
IMO is not a singular entity at all and therefore YOU canNOT be 'God'. Perhaps you have feelings of grandure that need addressing or maybe you just feel you have underachieved.
P.s: bring an apple with you if you find it :) .
3 crazy people were talking:
- i have been send like the messenger of god
- - No,i have been send like a messenger of god!
- - - What are you talking about? I send nobody
Conclusion: You're not God.
God doesn't exist.
Therefore, you don't exist.
nope you're nothing but a superstious moron with an extreme vainity problem. do you wonder why they call it the god complex? well my friend, you are a walking embodyment of that fuck up.
God probably is speaking to you in different ways!
Just don't listen to people who hold you down, just pray for them.
Exactly.
You are God and we are your creations.
Now get to explaining about why this world is all messed up.
Honestly, who the hell am I, anyone on this site or any other, to tell you that you aren't god? You are in fact, the center of your universe. What if god was one of us!!!
Maybe you just feel nice around churches and religious symbols.
Become a priest!
Small delusions, ok. CONSTANT NEVER-ENDING ILLUSIONS OF BEING GOD,(like Neo, THE ONE)a likely reason to be concerned? Seriously though, where do all these visions of "truth" really come from?? I'd like to believe that a genuinely good person who is experiencing such an issue of mental illness will still receive compassion and be forgiven by the REAL-ALL-LOVING-SECULAR-GOD.
So god sent us in this world to test our deeds , If we worship god and obey his commandments given in His Holy Books according to one's Religion
For christians = Bible
For Muslims = Holy Quran
For Hindus = Vedas
ect
.
.
.
we will receive the reward in the next life which is eternal & starts after this life ends (after death) !
We will go to heaven if our deeds are good and we will go to HELL if our deeds are bad !
All major Religions have many common things for example
1- There is only ONE TRUE GOD [Not Jesus(May God Be Pleased With Him) Jesus(May God Be Pleased With Him) was one of the messengers of GOD but he was not GOD]
2- We should not lie, drink alcohol,and lots of other bad things are prohibited in Christianity , Islam ,Hinduism & other major religions
there are so many more things i can describe with detail and context !
The World , materials , atmosphere , stars , SUN, solar system etc dosnt came into to existence on there own some one created all that so perfectly that know one can even imagine of creating .000001%% of that & that some one is GOD !
GOD is not comparable to anything in this universe !
The moment you compare GOD to anything it is not GOD!
For example you say My GOD is 1 million times stronger than the Strongest man on the earth then it is not god
GOD is uncreated and have no gender or image what so ever !
The Question Who Created GOD is illogical
its like asking a that does you friend John (male) gave birth to a boy or girl ?
Frankly, you know nothing about God. You can't know anything about God. The only thing we have telling us about God is a book written by MAN. It's MANS interpretation of God and it's MANS interpretation of whats right and whats wrong.
And I don't buy that BS that the bible was written through God's word. He doesn't sit there talking to people in their head saying 'Hey, don't forget the hell part. Oh, make it sound really bad.' No, it's the invention of man. It's mans most feared punishment. According to most of the old versions of the Bible we're all going to hell. Also, did you know the Catholic/Christian Bible was based off of the Muslim Bible? The Bible also says it's okay to own slaves. Because a son of Moses seen his father naked and Moses said that all of his descendants were to be a slave to his brothers.
Also, in the old testament it bans intermixing ANYTHING. Whats your shirt made of? Polyester cotton blend? YOUR GOING TO HELL. Ever talk to a woman on her period? HELL. Eat shellfish, pork, or lamb? HELL HELL AND HELL. Tattoos? HELL. We're also supposed to burn everything the woman on her period touches. If not, HELL. Preaching God and looking down on others is ALSO banned by the Bible. If you want to preach the Bible you better be fucking ready to follow ALL of it. You can't nitpick it.
At the end of the day nobody can speak what God wants. God is a watcher, not a meddler. If he was do you know how many people would have porches and be rich? Do you know how many cancer patients would survive? Fact is, you have no idea how God works. You have no idea what God wants. Hell, God could be fucking smacking you in the face and you wouldn't know it because you're clinging to a 2000 year old book that ignores that the earth is millions of years old.
God is nothing you can read or learn. God is everything and God is nothing. God are those moments when you are at peace. God is the gentle breeze on a hot day. God is the stranger on the bus. God is an act of kindness, God is a childs wish. You can't tell others what God is and isn't because nobody but him knows what he is. God is not a fucking threat. God is not a punishment. God has the desire for people to not be assholes to each other. God doesn't care if you give to the church, God doesn't give a shit if you wake up early to be at a Church. God is a kindness.
People like use just use God to have an excuse to look down on others. To feel better because YOUR going to heaven and THEY aren't.
I love you and every1ne you know Y dont ask but be who you want to be nobody else if you want to be montana which some people consider me Go ahead im not here to stop you alright.

You should only be concerned if you're experiencing other signs of mental illness such as psychosis or symptoms of schizophrenia maybe. That would make you unstable and is a recipe for potential disaster as psychosis tends to increase over time. Otherwise these thoughts are harmless, especially if you genuinely believe yourself to be a good person and not goal-oriented towards world domination, then hey, maybe God will show up one day and ask for your help! You never know...
jewish people literally cut off pieces!
