God's Omnipresence in Us

Image
God's Omnipresence in Us When we think of Omnipresence we think as God being everywhere this was addressed earlier in the “ Everywhere of Omnipresence ” or as God incarnating God’s self for man to interact with, this was addressed in the “ Theophany of Omnipresence”  but there is another form of omnipresence that I think should be cleared up. And it is even more complicated than all the rest and of all the Attributes of  God , this is the one that we have power over. This being the incarnation of God which is beyond the physical to the spiritual, it lives in us and speaks to us, and through us, it exists to comfort us, and guide us into full maturation in the works of God. This incarnation is called the Holy Spirit  ( Ruah HaKodesh;  Hebrew ) (Pneuma Hagios;  Greek ) it is given to the believer of Christ as a promise from Jesus Christ.

But occasionally they call to tell me about someone in the church that hurt them, seldom is it a physical hurt, most of...

Am I my brother's keeper?

And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.   And the   Lord   said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?  And he said , What hast thou done? The voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground . ( Genesis 4:8-10 ) ) What we can learn from a Homeless Man Scripture above records a very perverted account of a relationship between two brothers. And depending on how we perceive the scripture to interpret brotherhood,  we may very well be playing out  this murder of our brothers over and over again.  The thing that metaphysically calls us Cains is our  defining of the word brother.  How we answer the question  " Who is my brother? " makes a different in the level of hypocrisy in which we walk out our Christian faith.  Do we limit brotherhood to those ...
