Greetings systems.
In teaching this I use the term "exclusive attributes." There are really 5. Then there are the moral attributes such as holiness, faithfulness, goodness, etc.
Per the Holy Bible (and there are a few more for each than I have listed):
Omniscience - 1 John 3:20
Omnipotent - Revelation 19:6
Omnipresent - Jeremiah 23:23-24
Eternal - Habakkuk 1:12
Immutable - Malachi 3:6
We need to realize that God is most holy and good, therefore His omnipotence is not bullying as some has suggested. One needs to look at God as a Friend, not and enemy. That is best done by committing to Christ.

I like the way you gave references to- crisp and to the point- the important attributes of God as occurring in The Bible. In the Hindu Scriptures these words occur everytime you refer to God, so cannoot pinpoint to a particular chapter or line.

Hi systems and GADHISUNU.
For systems-- If I understand correctly, there are times that heavens in the Hebrew would include the whole universe, if not in the least the celestial realm (stars, planets, comets, etc.) . I fully believe God is everywhere in the universe.
GADHISUNU, thank you for that bit of information. This is what I like about myLot. Not only does one earn, the learn! Comparatively it can be though of that the name Yahweh (or however it was pronounced) does the same thing--expressing the self-existing God in His attributes.
Btw, I would have copy and pasted the texts in full, but I have to get past 500 first.

Hindu Religion mainly about Nature. Hindus pray the Nature . So, the Nature is More powerful - Omnipotent, Present every where Omni-present , Nature helps you to survive also Nature destroy every thing around Omniscient.

Tru like Sanjana said God is One. Religions call Him by different names. He has no Religion. Ekam sad viprA bahudhA vadanti = That which is Eternal(Everlasting) is One the intellectuals describe Him variously. Cheers!

I can tell you this from personal experience. God has ways far beyond those of man. We are mere ants even for the smartest person on Earth.God is very very smart. That is why few really understand. God has all the answers and all the secrets of the universe all around us. Who can see?? Who can discover??? It is all there.In spite of all you have heard about God and so much of what you know is not true. GOD IS UNCONDITIONAL LOVE!!! How about that God has it all Brains and Beauty.

If god did not love us he would not have given this beautiful nature-full of water, air, sunshine and also fruits and vegetables which we consume. It is because of the misuse made by the human that we fall short of things. God is one and the same but called by different names in different religion like our father who is a husband, brother, uncle and other types of relations. I believe all religions say that god has all the above mentioned qualities.
Happy mylotting.

If god is omniscient, then he has played some fine jokes on everyone, but most of all on the catholics. Look what they did to Galileo: excommunicated him, because he could prove that the earth isn't the center of the universe, and that the moon revolves around the earth, and the planets revolve around the sun. They only recently officially un-excommunicated Galileo and moved his body to consecrated ground. All because what Galileo could prove was counter to what the bible said. So if the bible is the word of god, then god was wrong about the universe, earth being flat, how many planets there are, et cetera. And if god was wrong about the universe, what else is he wrong about?

Hi systems, These three words would certainly describe God but it also means that God is within us, that we are one with God. We must get away from separation theology which says we are are separate from each other and from God. We are all one yet we all retain our own individuality. This is why when we do something to hurt another, we are also hurting ourselves. Blessings.

hi systems .. god is one and only one ... only different is the man made religion ...
he is all that you described in all the religion - he is everywhere, he sees everything and he knows everything
Self Realization is the best scripture than any of the written scriptures .. dear
GOD is one and only one as you have said yourself, all religion tells us to love all human the one teaching of GOD but what happens in reality ..fight among the religion claiming one above the other ...
GOD is one sorry if what is said is not the response expected
cheers
