God is God for being the greatest of all, the almighty, the transcendental force of knowledge. Knowledge, the main difference between the LORD and mankind, well, is how knowledge itself is able to distribute the judgment among the community that stands by itself. But is this community the one in a constant conflict between their believes and the wisdom above all? YES. Of course, God and its seekers revolve around one idea, which explains thoroughly the behavior when people judge God.
For example, in the movie Bruce Almighty we can say is an adaptation of the way God is shown in Exodus, the way he as a ruler is able to manage the situations involving power, when people overrule him. This is a constant friction between us humans and him, as the maximum exponent of authority over us. Our relationship with the LORD is a balance of weight, when he feels greater we encourage the power (suppose to be our duty in the first place for us the followers of religion), and when we feel greater God’s job is to remove that feeling. It is a vicious circle.
“Now I know that the LORD is greater than all gods: for in the thing where in they dealt proudly he was above them.” (Exodus18:11), here is implied how God is magnified by his followers. God is an interpretation, we are not even sure if he is real, we only stand there in cause of our faith. This is probably why in modern times all we have is each person’s opinion about this image that overcomes any other. One well known representation of God is then in Bruce Almighty. God is seen as one disguised between the people. He figures (as part as his job), to help one of his own, since the only way to help the whole is going little by little. Bruce then is given God’s power, which obviously having God’s powers is being greater, but a difference about this certain movie is how at the end, is not this way, if God is really there this means, his powers are diminished, or sometimes overrated.
