Did God have all his glory in the beginning?
Has he received additional glory?
Will he yet receive additional glory and how?
The glory of God,

I concur with your response. I wish more people would open their eyes to consider these perspectives.
You also said: "If God is to take credit for all things then He must also take any blame.
Since I believe in the Perfection of all of God's works, I see no blame to be assigned.
Evil is the tool that God uses to teach. As Genesis says, the tree of knowledge of good and evil is good. I take it further and call it Perfect."
Your response is well stated and I concur on this also.
Regards,
GM

As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.
Deuteronomy 32:4
He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.
I have often wondered why anyone would follow a God that was not Perfect and could not create Perfection.
Strange that most Christians are waiting for God to come back and repair His screwed up systems.
They are Perfect but most do not see.

My response to "twobitmedia" :
I stated: "Scripture indicates that all of God's works are Perfect."
You asked where does scripture indicate this?
That is a good question. I answer with the following:
Genesis 1:31 And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.

Thanks for the response. I am not familiar with this book. What and where is it?Revelations won wrote: Dear brianbbs67,
I am guessing that you are referring to this quote:
"For this is my work and glory, to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man" (Moses 1:39)

Dear brianbbs67,
This is from the "Pearl of Great Price" Book of Moses Chapter 1) You can read it on line if you wish. You might find some other interesting observations as well. If you have more questions feel free to ask.

it was Adam in the garden who ruined it all for all of US humans. It is very obvious that evil abounded in heaven, by the angels who followed Lucifer, ( means the shining one ) like snakes shine and glisten when moving in the sun... Well,, too many try to " blame " God, even Adam tried to blame God when he replied,,,Gen 3:12 The man replied, "The woman you gave to be with me — she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate." ( that YOU gave me )Revelations won wrote: I concur with your response. I wish more people would open their eyes to consider these perspectives.

Re: The glory of God,
Post #20I have no idea, why do you ask ? Why not ask Good Himself ?Revelations won wrote: Did God have all his glory in the beginning?
Has he received additional glory?
Will he yet receive additional glory and how?
