Where Is God In The Middle Of Our Humanism, Socialism, And Materialism;even Our Religion?

As living in a world full of knowledge, we ought to know where it all started and where it will all end. In today's world there is many different teachings about life and our cultures and our belief systems. Is there a God? Where does He fit into the equation? Will the real God please stand out!

    Let me start by saying that I don't know too much about Humanism, Socialism and Materialism.  But I don't think he is in any of these things.  God, in my opinion, cannot be put into a box, cannot be defined by just one way of thinking - he is far bigger than that.  Crikey, he is far bigger than everything that ever existed.

    This question highlights an interesting point for me.  I think many problems arise because people try and label God.  They try and sum him up with just one sentence and although that sentence may be partly correct, it cannot possibly sum God up completely.  When asked who or what he was, God simply responded 'I am'.  Which, you might think, doesn't tell us a whole lot about him.  But in fact it is the best way to describe him in whole.

    I wholly believe there is a God.  As for where he fits into the equation, he will fit in where you let him.  God never takes anything off you that you don't want to give.  He'll never force himself upon you, and He'll never break his word.  The only thing he requires of you is faith in his Son, Jesus.  That's all.  Once you have that, and once you discover the power that he places in you because of your faith, you really will see miracles happen.

    There is such a big misconception in this world that God doesn't exist because there is so much killing, depravity and sorrow in the world.  This isn't the case.  God will reveal himself to you if you let him.  But he will not forcibly stop someone from enacting out their free will.  I am a Christian, but that doesn't stop me from committing sin if i choose too.  I still have free will.

    I hope that answered part of your question.

    Thank you for your comment i appreciate it. I meant with all of these teachings and beliefs, our focus is off the main point. I feel like people throw themselves into something because they are afraid of the truth. That is why we have humanism, socialism, and so many religions. People are either ignorant or misinformed. The latter mostly i think.

      He is present more than you think. I don't think that He always likes to be around making people realize that He is here, He wants us to have faith in Him. I know I have faith, and I think about Him daily, as I pray everyday, several times a day as well. Please, just because it looks bleak, doesn't mean that He has abandoned us. Keep the faith, and you will see. Hope this helps, good luck to you.

        God is where you allow Him to be.  There are many teachings, because there are many beliefs.  Belief and faith in God is a personal and individual thing.  Each of us has our own path to follow.  What we believe is a statement about ourselves.  The Jews were told to go forth and spread the word.  Not to convert and make everyone jewish.  God knew there would be different religions, because there would be different beliefs and faiths.  I don't believe in religions, because they expect you to follow the leader and believe as he believes.  Do you believe that every Catholic believes as the Pope believes?  "Is there a God?"  What do you believe?  "Where does He fit into the equation?"  Where are you letting Him fit in your life?
