I’m sure that’s going to be a good look for you, as long as you remember the clothing 😄
Oh yeah -- I should also wear some clothes when I go out. 😉

When I consider the One behind the scenes, it doesn't even have the attribute of himness.
Do you know about the attributes of God who has given us a revelation of Himself through scripture, history, and fellowship?

Isn't it strange that "Scriptures" (which really just means "writings" ) on the one hand say that God is unknowable, and on the other hand go on to assert various attributes of God?

Just to be clear: I'm not completely against the phenomenon of belief, but then there's always the matter of the particulars.

Your eternal universe has an age or no?

You cannot reach or figure Him out on your own; He has to reveal Himself to you, which is why only God can prove God.

I’ve never done any of those things because you wore a pentacle pendant.
I only did that in 2038 of your Earth years. Sorry about that!

No. How can something that has always existed have an age? Does your God have an age?!

No, an eternal Being that always was, is, and will be does not have an age. Does your universe have one? So God is timeless, and is the same yesterday, today, and forever. The universe you believe is eternal, is it always changing from one thing to another?
