@Soothfast saidWell, no, that is not what traditional Christianity claims. Their God is transcendent, nature is His work, but he is definitely no part of it; that is why the incarnation is such a big thing for Christians. Epiphanies are commonplace in pagan religion, because pagan gods are nature gods, part of nature.
Alternatively they might say he is manifest in all of nature and the cosmos. Though, such contention would be problematic for a "personal" deity and more aligned with an animist view of reality, or maybe more accurately a cosmopsychist view.
@Arkturos saidFrom the wrath of God, He will act according to His nature, and His goodness and righteousness demand that He acts against evil; He cannot ignore it or overlook it. So, for His nature to be satisfied, all of our sins need to be paid for in full without exception. That was done through His goodness and righteousness as He acted according to His love and mercy on the cross. Which is why the salvation of God is so important; there is no other way.
Salvation from what?
Our "sin nature"?
That's just psychotic (or at least voluntarily delusional).
@KellyJay saidPass. 😉

@Arkturos saidIf verbiage is such an obstruction to you, then the obvious move would be to ignore it, or, indeed, lessen your own.
Good heavens, madam!
My view is that verbiage can be an obstruction, so these days I might not even recommend "OM". 😉
@eye-of-horus-42 saidNope!
@Suzianne; The monotheism religion was adopted and plagiarized by' HEBREW,ISRAELITES' approximately 800-1000 years later from Egypt pharaoh Akhenaten.And that is historical fact..
@Arkturos saidNot sure why you would pass, God salvation is from God’s righteous judgement. Fixing our sin nature alone would not remove our guilt we have done, that would remain.
Pass. 😉
So through His righteousness He made away to deal with our guilt, and our sin nature, at the cross. You dislike that for some reason?
@KellyJay saidIt's not a matter of dislike, but rather of not accepting untestable assertions.
