If god is all-powerful and omnipotent then...?
.. why did he have to rest on the seventh day? What was he resting from? Did he get tired?
If God is all-powerful wouldn't make him bored of this world...
Has anyone played a video-game with God-mode, it gets boring and pointless REALLY fast...
If you have infinite money = economy is irrelevant
if you have infinite energy = physics is irrelevant
if you have infinite knowledge = learning is irrelevant
If you have infinite control = everything is irrelevant
The more you have = the less you need
you have infinity = you need NOTHING.
God has all of those things = EVERYTHING IS IRRELEVANT in god's eyes?
What possible reason could God have to care?
If god has infinite power/energy/etc, he wasn't "laboring"; because it took finite amount of energy to make universe, therefore he used 0% effort to make universe.

it really is totally humorous how the atheists have taken over this talk board. They spend a lot time attempting to attack something/someone that would not exist. you need to imagine that self proclaimed more advantageous sensible beings ought to locate something more effective to do with their time - possibly treatment maximum cancers or make funds. because god is genuine he's omnipotent. He can do all it truly is logically likely. God is limitless yet not your definition of limitless. God isn't constrained by area nor time. God lives outdoors of area and time. Time and area are actual obstacles. God isn't actual God made introduction from not something. At one time there change into not something then God created something. yet previous modern-day and destiny are all one to God. We use the masculine to describe God because the male is the author. Jesus seek for suggestion from God as Father and daddy.

The word "rest in gen.1 is defined from the aramaic as Discontinue.
To stop.
EDIT
By demonstrating a lack of understanding of the term "Rest,
You show that you do not know what you're talking about.
by refusing to accept a factual definition of the word "Rest"; you demonstrate the folly of an illogical mind without reason.
Your posit:
"If you are *this, you don't need*this".
Couldn't be further from correct.
You however will not accept your failing,, therefore you will never learn from it, therefore, you will always be completely wrong, while completely full fo yourself.
you must be an atheist, they are the most fallaciously ignorant, illogical and without reason, while self-deceived into believing they are superior.
If it wasn't so sad, it might be funny.

im tottaly atheist but wouldnt you be bored and want to rest after working hard for 6 days.....and some people like god mode... was there a point of this so called question?
- DuckyLv 79 years ago
He probably didn't rest in the manner we rest. The term 'rest' is probably just used to emphasize the point that he stopped working.... Remember that the creation story is written almost as a poem.... so a creative choice of words is expected.

All of these questions assume that creation is about God.
A parent that could give everything to a child would spoil
that child by doing so. We grow by choice, and making good
choices always pleases the parent. Our ability to improve by
relinquishing "self" is the purpose of creation. When we confuse
having dominion with having dominance we are making the wrong
choice. Covetousness is based on insecurity and fear. That is why
so-called religions use it so well to control the congregations.

He didn't rest. He stopped working for a while. He did it to set an example for us. He wants us to work 6 days and rest on the 7th. This is where you get the Sabbath Day from. God realizes the strain of our labor on our bodies and realizes that we all need a day of rest out of the week.

The 7th 1,000 Years (Day) Was Created In Order To Rest From This..

God never tires. The original Hebrew (shabath) means that he simply stopped working - not that he rested. He ceased from his labours.
