What exactly is “God”?

 She didn’t do that question once a problem, but it is already a problem for our time. What about us? Can the word “God” say? What fact does it express, the show? Can this fact affect a person? If we wait
To get to the roots of this question, let’s try first o religious-philosophical analysis. We will discover the source of divine experiences and consider why the topic “God” determines human history. Although it can be heard everywhere today crying, “God is dead!” we see the question of God in ours Wednesday is all the more burning.
Where does the idea of ​​”God” come from, from what roots is it growing up? Why this seemingly useless and for our country as if, after all, a useless topic remains the most burning topic in history? Why does it appear in so many forms? According to external signs, we can say that they basically exist only three forms that circulate in various variations such as notes, polytheism, and atheism. History of humanity in relation he walks to God in these three ways. Even atheism, which seemingly ended God, is constantly returning to God’s question and deals with her passionately. If we want to follow the basic pre-common questions, we would have to present two divine experience roots to which many others relate, forms of experience. Their tension was expressed by van der Leeuw, a well-known Dutch religious phenomenology, paradoxically the sentence that God – the Son – is present in the history of religion before God – the Father. 
We should say more correctly that God the Savior, the Redeemer, is before God the Creator. But Even in this clarification, we must be careful that this formula cannot be understood in terms of a time sequence, for which there is no evidence. If we can follow the history
of religion, the theme of God always appears in both forms. The word “before” can only mean that for real religiosity, the Savior stands in front of the Creator for living existential interest. In this dual form in which humanity has seen its God is the dual basis of religious experience; we already are they talked about it. The first starting point is one’s own experience of an existence that transcends itself and brings us by someone, albeit in the most encrypted way to »completely to another. « This is again a very multi-layered process – complicated as human existence itself. Theologian Bonhoeffer said, “It is time to put an end to God who is for us only a substitute, a patch on the verge of our incompetence, and whom we invoke when we are at the ends. They did we would find God not only in need, in failure, but the middle of the fullness of earthly life. So it turns out that God. It is not a way out of an emergency that loses its function when our skills will improve.

In the history of human struggles o God is both ways, and both, it seems to me, are equally justified. Both human helplessness can bring us to God and the fullness of life. Whenever people have come to know fullness, wealth, beauty, the size of their being, they must have realized it for sure. As a human being, I am bound by this wealth to make sense and accept that sense. Also, inadequacy shows a person the way to something else. Man is alone the question, its invincibility, the boundaries on which the caliber in its own heart, and the desire for (probably in the sense of Nietzsche’s words that every joy longs after an eternity, and yet we experience it only in an instant) this limitation and desire for infinite and unlimited it never leaves a person, it makes him feel that it is not enough for himself, that he will reach himself only when he comes out of himself and focuses to something else, infinitely great.
