Panentheism Clarifies the Meanings of the 'Word of God' and 'Words of God''

The phrases, Word of God and Words of God, have unclear meanings and tend to confuse people. But, if one accepts panentheism, their meanings become clear and this confusion goes away.

Panentheism says that God can be spoken of the Father and Son, as expressed in the Christian Trinity, and Creator and creature, as God appears as a teacher of humans. As the Father or the Creator, God is a one-thing and creates the universe with a single word. On the other hand, as the Son or a creature, God is a one-many thing and teaches humans with many different words. Today, I believe that only Hinduism and Christianity accept a Trinitarian God who unifies Creator and creature absolutely.

If one accepts panentheism, it is thus questionable to say that the Bible is the Word of God (Jews and Christians), that the Qur!an is written by God using His own language (Muslims), and that God dictates to ( inspires) the scribes of scriptures (Jews and Christians).

The confusion above arose easily because religious people tend to hold all of their beliefs as if they are absolute truths. This is a major human error because all humans always hold many more falsities than they hold absolute truths. Only the God who appears in the human world holds all truths. Unless people become more interested in holding more truths about God and the universe, that God creates and visits, I believe that the undesirable human behavior we are experiencing today will transform all people into a highly irrational world. Truths can be found only through science and the scientific method. It is time that people recognize science for what it really is.
