Is God water? Is water God?

JSUN

Before I get in to this, I am not saying this is what I believe! This is something I've been thinking about for awhile. Im just looking for your and opinions. That and to provoke some thought.

Water is thought to be the most abundant molecule in the universe and it is also the most abundant compound in space. Water molecules are everywhere. Water is the life giver in our physical world. God is also known as our Life giver. Water is the only substance that can exists naturally in three forms, gas, solid and liquid, God is described as the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Water that has been evaporated, rises. Water on earth is full of dirt and debris. As it rises it is freed of the things that bog it down or that makes it un-pure. As it is said we also would be freed from our earthly restraints. As we rise into the heavens to be with God.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Here it sounds like there was only water to begin with. Here at least it doesn't say God created water.

There many who believe that water has memory. Masaru Emoto was a Japanese author and entrepreneur, who claimed that human consciousness has an effect on the molecular structure of water. Emoto's work explored his theory that water could react positively or negatively to thoughts and words. Polluted water could be cleaned through prayer and positive visualization. This can be looked up on youtube, Very Interesting on its own. Is this how our thoughts and prayers are transported to God? By water up to the clouds. Is this why we should pray over our food and drink?

Think about the last time you really looked at a glass of water. Now each water molecule is said to have 440,000 panels to store information on. How does it collect this information? I don't know, but it sounds like water can see. It reflects light and images in much the same way as our eyes. Now if this is true. Think about the journey of a drop of water. Where all it's been. What all it has seen and heard. From Falling from the sky, to rising back up again and everything in between. The possibilities are staggering. What about the journey of your last dink of water. Was it down a mountain that ran into a river. Listing to bird sing and watch the sky go by. Like you did as a kid in the back seat of a car. Or did it travel from a treatment plant where it was then sent through miles and mile of underground pipes to your house.

So what if the oceans and the seas are big memory bank. Where all the information of the world is stored and processed. Where every thought, image, and the blue print to everything ever in existence is keep. Water can be seen as the oldest chemist ever. Mixing and matching different combinations together. Creating, rearranging, adding, subtracting, everything with everything forever. staggering once again.

God said we were made in his image. When you look into a pond you see your reflection, your image. Everywhere I looked these numbers up they were different. As babies we are around 80 to 90 percent water. This is higher than in an adults, which has 57 to 60 percent water. As we get order and more corrupt and beat down by the world. Is this the reason why we lose such a large amount of water in our bodies. If we believe and trust in God. Do we retain more water as we get older? It is also said that God is in every living thing. Is this by water? Humans have always wondered where our souls are located. What if our souls are made of water. When we die our bodies dry up and turn to dust. The water evaporates and everything else stays on the earth.

I posted most of this on a webpage awhile back. I had one person say "God can't be contained and that water could." Well you could bury a container of water miles underground, it might take a long time but the water will evaporate. This same person said "water doesn't show emotion." A flood that takes out a whole town appears to be full of emotion. How about a big storm passing over your house? Set down by a steam and just list to how calming it is. Better yet! After a long day. Fill your bathtub up with water. Tell me it's not one of the most soothing things in the world. How about a spring rain? Gently cleaning and nourishing everything in sight. Sounds very caring to me.

There is more that can be said about this, but for now I'm going to leave it at that. Like I said I am just look for opinions no matter what they are. I'm not trying to get anyone to believe in this. I have read that water is mentioned in the Bible 722 times. If nothing else it seems to have some importance. Thank you for your time. Have a great day.

Here are a few passages

Genesis 1:20 God said "Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that have life

John 3: 1-5 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council. He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him." In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again." "How can a man be born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked. "Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb to be born!" Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.

2 Samuel 14:14 For we must needs die, and are as water spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again; neither doth God respect any person: yet doth he devise means, that his banished be not expelled from him.

Isaiah 12:3
With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.

John 7:38-39
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

Jeremiah 2:13
For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.

John 4:14
But whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

John 7:38
Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.

Revelation 21:1
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea."

Revelation 22:1-2
And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

Revelation 21:6
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

Revelations 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” Let anyone who hears this say, “Come.” Let anyone who is thirsty come. Let anyone who desires drink freely from the water of life.

1 John Chapter 5
6 This is he that came by water and blood,even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

Was hoping someone might know if and where it says that God created water?

I suppose if you lived in the middle east, in desert conditions you would have a whole lot more respect for water than if you lived in a little island with a maritime climate. I suspect if you did a bit of research you would find that sun worship was more common in countries where it was less overwhelmingly available.

I like your analogy though, its the kind of thinking that resulted in religions. I am not sure why you are using Christian references to prove an essentially pagan point?

I have done research. By far Sun worship was very common. Not sure how this would be pagan. I'm not trying to prove anything. I'm just pointing out things I have studied, thought about. Ty for the post.

Sorry, my post was rather carelessly written. Substitute 'one' for 'you' - I did not mean you specifically, I was suggesting that if I, or anyone, did any research. And probably heathen would be a better word than pagan.

As to proof, you are offering an opinion and supporting it with evidence, I would think that in doing that you are trying to establish - or prove - your point. If you are talking about the Christian god then using Christian references is reasonable enough; as you had posted in Spirituality I was taking it you meant god as a general monotheistic description.

There are some very nice, poetic parallels in your arguments, I suggest though that all that this proves is that writers used water as a metaphor, therefore the parallels are inevitable, its a circular argument.

Sounds more like something Irish Water and Denis O'Brien would dream up.

They should charge you extra.
