After considering you statements again something came to light, if you believe that the universe came to be out of nothing and without normal scientific laws then the only explanation is that a supernatural act had to have happened.
And to think, Christians have been claiming for thousands of years that the universe was created by a supernatural act.
For some others, it's the "Nature of God."Hmmm. For some it always seems to boil down to "Anything but God."

You are His creation but until you come to Jesus you are not His child.
No, I'm sorry. What you have done is to dance around that question. You've not addressed it.
What you mean is you haven't heard the answer you wanted.
That's a very easy 'out' sir. Whenever the questions become too difficult, just blame it on Satan?
Apparently you don't understand there are only two camps you can belong to and that's either God's camp or Satan's camp. There is no neutral camp.
Seems to me that 'forever' is a considerably long period of time to be doing nothing?
Cool.
According to some Christians, who have a close personal relationship with Jesus, I am God's child whether I believe or not.
I have never understood this. Do you think Jesus lied to them?
No. They just don't know what they are talking about.
You need to remember He is a Spirit so we can't attribute human characteristics to Him..
Every human being, regardless of their beliefs, or not, are Children of God. For a Lover of God to believe otherwise places a limit on the reach and breath of God and thus limits God.You are His creation but until you come to Jesus you are not His child.
Of course we can. Every single account of him doing anything in the Bible is an example of human characteristics.

You are mistaken. Those of us who have accepted His plan of salvation through His Son Jesus Christ are His children. All other humans are His creations. It may make you feel better to assume you are His child but you are not. You are in Satan's camp and need to change camps soon because there is not that much time left. Read Rev. 20 & 21.

That's because the human writers of the Bible knew no other way to describe what God was doing as He did what appeared to be human things.

Nope, I don't think so. There is no way a human being can be a Creation of God and not be a Child of God. That would be like saying, for what ever reason, that my off spring that came from the fruit of my loins are not my children. Which wouldn't be true. All Human Beings are children of God. The trick is to see them as so.You are mistaken.

Then the bible is no better than it's errant, ignorant authors from the Bronze Age.
Pbth.
