- A “give-me God.” Like a vending machine, you put in and He is obligate to feed out?
- A “grandfather God.” Someone with candy in his pocket, cheery smile on His face and never a word of correction on His lips?
- A “hot-tub God.” His only concern, His only reason for being, is your happiness and contentment?
- A “jello God.” You pour him into any mold you want and He fits.
Common conceptions of God. The underlying thought is manipulation and control. Is God here for your good pleasure or are you here to serve Him? Is He here to dole out to your whims or are you here to worship Him?
