Does God exist on a higher dimension?
I have heard it said that God exists on a higher dimension. As in, there's the three dimensions that we control (width, length, and height) and a fourth dimension that we experience but do not control (time). God then exists on some higher dimension. It could be the fourth dimensions, it could be the tenth dimension for all we know.
So the way God interacts with us is how we might interact with a sentient creature living in a two-dimensional plane. We can describe our three-dimensional world to an extent, but the two-dimensional being won't be able to quite understand it. If you wanted to show it a cube, for example, the only way you could do it would be to show an image of a two-dimensional "unfolded" cube. A similar method is done in three-dimensional representations of the four-dimensional hypercube.

God exists on and above all dimensions. He is a sentient being composed of material seas humans cannot detect by our senses and of our own ability. God is refered to as the Holy Spirit, or a being who is holy and perfectly good, and composed of an essence called spirit. spirit is has a quality of existence that is beyond the ability of the sense.
Your cross picture was a bit weird... Cross comes from the word Stauros, or upright pale. Which would insist that Jesus wasn't put on a t shape, but rather an l shape. I have no idea where the modern cross shape came from.

No. Only physical beings live in dimensions, and they are limited. God is a timeless and immaterial person. He created the physical world in 3 dimensions, and he created time, which began at 14 billion years ago in the Big Bang.

Why not? It's your story man. Since the exitence of higher dimensions as other than mathematical constructs is unknown, why not people it with unreal creatures as well. Perpahs God live in the 5th dimension along with the unicorns. elves, and the dementors from Harry Potter. Your story, you're making up the rules, it can be anything you like.

Academia states that in the absence of any sort of evidence of the existence of something it must be deemed not to exist until verifiable evidence is found - thus god is held not to exist pending some sort of verifiable evidence.
The bible is what is called "Faction” A fictional story set in a factual time and place. Thus the time, place and real historical characters are all correct but the fictional characters and stories are not!
There is not one single mention of Jesus in the entire Roman record - that is right - not one! At the same time as he was supposed to have been around there were a number of Jews claiming to be the messiah - all of whom are well recorded!
There is not a single contemporary record from any source and even the bible mentions of him like all other references were not written until many years after his supposed death!
He was supposed to have been a huge problem to the Romans and produced wonderful miracles but still not one contemporary record?
Even the bible mentions of him like all other references were not written until many years after his supposed death!
Pilate is recorded in the Roman record as a somewhat lack luster man but no mention of a Jesus, a trial or crucifixion that would surely have been used to make him look brighter!
At best he was an amalgam of those others but almost certainly never existed!
Not one word of it is contemporary with the period and was not written until several hundred years after the period the story is set in!! How did the apostles write their books more than a hundred years after they would have been dead?
Please realize that those claims for the Old historians are worthless since they were not even born until long after everyone in the stories would have been so long dead!
Josephus AD 37 – AD 100
Tacitus AD 56 – AD 120
Suetonius - 69 – 130 AD
Pliny the Younger, 61 AD – 112 AD
Justin Martyr (Saint Justin) AD103–165 AD
Lucian - AD 120 -180 AD but he was hostile to Christianity and openly mocked it.
Pamphilius AD 240-309 AD
Eusebius AD 263 – 339 AD
Photius AD 877 – 886 AD
Thallus - But there are no actual record of him except a fragment of writing which mentions the sack of Troy [109 BC] Showing that he was clearly not alive in biblical times.
Some even try to use Seneca. 4 BCE – 65 CE but as a Stoic Philosopher he opposed religion yet made not a single mention of a Jesus or Christianity!
Even funnier is trying to claim Celsus AD ? – 177 AD Who said that Jesus was a Jew who’se mother was a poor Jewish girl whose husband, who was a carpenter, drove her away because of her adultery with a Roman soldier named Panthera. She gave birth to an illegitimate child named Jesus. In Egypt, Jesus became learned in sorcery and upon his return presented himself as a god.

....and? Oh I see, you are really trying very hard to make a disclaimer. You can get help with a disclaimer by looking ion the NT. There are so many until the entire fictional story is one big disclaimer.
Source(s): are you living within that two dimensional world that you mentioned, because that might be your reason for believing in a composite invented character called Jesus. - Anonymous8 years ago
There are many names for the Only One God, the Eternity. Christians say God. Jewish Say ILAI (Arabic word ILAHI). Muslims say Allah (Who Created you, me and whole universe).
Always Pray the Only One God Allah (Who Created you, me and whole universe), not to the creations.
Prophet Jesus (Peace be upon him) is a creation, not the Creator God. If He is God, "Did He create any? Who took care of the world, when he was here in this world? If He is son of God, who is God's wife?"
Allah Says in Holy Quran
Chapter 4 Verse 32. .... And ask Allah of his bounty. Indeed Allah is ever, of all things, Knowing.
22:73. O people, an example is presented, so listen to it. Indeed, those you invoke besides Allah will never create [as much as] a fly, even if they gathered together for that purpose. And if the fly should steal away from them a [tiny] thing, they could not recover it from him. Weak are the pursuer and pursued.
- WHERE IS GOD? Chapter 50 Verse 16 And indeed We have created man, and We know what his ownself whispers to him. And "WE ARE NEARER TO HIM THAN HIS JUGULAR VEIN" (by Our Knowledge).
Chapter 40 Verse 60. And your Lord says, "CALL UPON ME;I WILL RESPOND TO YOU." Indeed, those who disdain My worship will enter Hell [rendered] contemptible.
37:75. And Noah had certainly called Us, and [We are] the best of responders.
57:27 Then We sent following their footsteps Our messengers and followed [them] with Jesus, the son of Mary, and gave him the Gospel. And We placed in the hearts of those who followed him compassion and mercy and monasticism, which they innovated; We did not prescribe it for them except [that they did so] seeking the approval of Allah....
61:6 And [mention] when Jesus, the son of Mary, said, "O children of Israel, indeed I am the messenger of Allah to you confirming what came before me of the Torah and bringing good tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name is Ahmad."....
Look Chapter 48 Verse 29 (Because I am not allowed to write more. Y!A says it's too long)
The Holy Quran was Revealed from God Allah [Who Created you, me and whole universe] to Prophet Mohammed by VOICE, through Angel Gabriel, before 1400 years. Later it was written, Since then, there is no change in it's Arabic Origin. You can't find contradictions or a single vulgar word in Holy Quran. Translations may vary. Because they are done by humans. The Quranic Verses are not only for those olden days, they are to follow today and tomorrow. It has many Scientific Proofs.

The Only One God Allah (Who Created you, me and whole universe) Says in Holy Quran Chapter 3 Verse 64 :
Say, "O People of the Scripture (Holy Books), come to a word that is equitable between us and you - that we will not worship except Allah and not associate anything with Him and not take one another as lords instead of Allah ." But if they turn away, then say, "Bear witness that we are Muslims [submitting to Him].
(You will be the witness on the "Judgement Day", as I informed you about Islam, the True Path).
God Allah gave you the thinking power. Think again and again. Ask yourself, Why? How? Is there any Scientific Proofs? The Holy Quran has the reply. I can't push you to embrace Islam. You have to realize yourself. Nothing to loose, something to gain for the life hereafter. May Almighty Allah Show you the Right Path.
Allah Says in Holy Quran : Chapter 2 Verse 256. There is no compulsion in religion (Islam)....
Islam is easy, Holy Quran Chapter 2 Verse 185. ..."Allah intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you"....
To check: Just say heart fully "Ya Allah" always, even on bed, except in toilet, look the changes in your life after a month.(This has been tested).
