Re: “Do you happen to know how BIG God is?”
I think it's a meaningless question. When the universe blossomed into existence, it was smaller than a pinpoint... smaller than an atom. So for God's palm to span the universe doesn't say much. God would be outside and prior to the universe, where and when the dimensions of space and time do not apply. If they did, would you be saying that God's palm is big enough to span a pinpoint? That's not saying much. Or that his palm is ballooning in size along with our universe to this very day, perhaps forever? For what reason would God's palm be changing size? Just to support the statement that his palm is bigger than our universe? Again... it's meaningless. An analogy or gross oversimplification, I think. Better to simply say that God is of infinite scope and age and leave it at that.

I am not trying to give you a hard time. I do believe that the universe was created, but it was a long, long time ago and in accordance with some aspects of physics we haven't an inkling of. When the first stars formed, they were very large and only lasted about twenty million years before exploding. (Large stars have short lives.) In the hearts of those early stars, the heavy elements were formed... the very elements that make up most of our planet today. Ours is a second generation star, and our bodies and world are built from the debris of the earlier stars that lived briefly, sputtered and died in the universe's early years.

Do you happen to know how BIG God is?

I am not asking this question to test you or belittle.

Very few people know. Mostly the ones that do are those who study the scriptures.

I stand in amazement of the works of GOD the SON who created by the power of HIS VOICE (words, HE SPOKE).

Just for reference, keep in mind that the PALM of God's hand extends from one end of the universe to the other.

ALL of these statements are found in the original texts of the manuscripts preserved for thousands of years...

In the beginning when there was only GOD, HE spoke and created all of the "heavens" (universe) and the the planets and solar systems including earth.

The universe is ever growing and expanding.

Amazingly enough, The Lord God's palm of HIS hand reaches from one end to the other.

THAT was recorded in ancient texts thousands of years ago..

I am envious of the stellar views of the universe and the stars you can see from there De. At my home even on a clear night, the sky has very few stars visible and I live and entire county away from Cincinnati. we still have apparently smog to contend with..


IF one wants to see the Glory of God and the Works of HIM created by the command of HIS voice, look at the night sky and the stars and then also consider the creation of the planet earth and how it took shape over a long time after it was too was spoken into existence by CHRIST Himself.

As far as ATLAS Shrugged, by Rand, absolutely a must read.

Wishing you a wonderful Saturday. We had about 2 1/2 inches of snowfall last night.. Everything is white here.

It's very pretty to me .... But I am not driving in it. Laughing Laughing
