Why does God need a spaceship?

Well lets say that as a child and even early adulthood, I believed that way and it may be right, but I'm not a child and I'm digging deeper

God needs a spaceship to travel inside this space/time continuum.


His dwelling place is usually in another space/time continuum.

...which is why you need deeper insights.
They ARE there.

Disbelieving certain old truths like the one I mentioned above always proves to be a waste of time and energy. In the end, if you dig deep enough, you'll get back to them - wishing you had explored them and retained them the first time around...

Believe me they are being explored and in order to gain insight you have to gain some truth undeniable

OP, i've missed something here, i've compleatly lost all sence of time and place while reading your first post, confusion doesn't start to explain my mental state. are you sure you didn't get a page of a sci-fi novel stuck into your copy of the good book, where do space ships come into the equation?

From the scifi books of Ezekiel and Exodus

Its that simple.

Good answer. It is the three Gods as one. God manifest part of himself in Jesus Christ. Who was, and is, and will always be. That part of God
has a central part. That could use a space ship to show up in person. Although he could fly through space like superman. A flying throne has
it's benefits! Just a little humor.

Ezekiel chp. 1
4 Then I looked, and behold, a whirlwind was coming out of the north, a great cloud with raging fire engulfing itself; and brightness was all around it and radiating out of its midst like the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire. 5 Also from within it came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man. 6 Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings. 7 Their legs were straight, and the soles of their feet were like the soles of calves’ feet. They sparkled like the color of burnished bronze. 8 The hands of a man were under their wings on their four sides; and each of the four had faces and wings. 9 Their wings touched one another. The creatures did not turn when they went, but each one went straight forward.

10 As for the likeness of their faces, each had the face of a man; each of the four had the face of a lion on the right side, each of the four had the face of an ox on the left side, and each of the four had the face of an eagle. 11 Thus were their faces. Their wings stretched upward; two wings of each one touched one another, and two covered their bodies. 12 And each one went straight forward; they went wherever the spirit wanted to go, and they did not turn when they went.
13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches going back and forth among the living creatures. The fire was bright, and out of the fire went lightning. 14 And the living creatures ran back and forth, in appearance like a flash of lightning.
15 Now as I looked at the living creatures, behold, a wheel was on the earth beside each living creature with its four faces. 16 The appearance of the wheels and their workings was like the color of beryl, and all four had the same likeness. The appearance of their workings was, as it were, a wheel in the middle of a wheel. 17 When they moved, they went toward any one of four directions; they did not turn aside when they went. 18 As for their rims, they were so high they were awesome; and their rims were full of eyes, all around the four of them. 19 When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up. 20 Wherever the spirit wanted to go, they went, because there the spirit went; and the wheels were lifted together with them, for the spirit of the living creatures[c]was in the wheels. 21 When those went, these went; when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up together with them, for the spirit of the living creatures[d]was in the wheels.
22 The likeness of the firmament above the heads of the living creatures[e]was like the color of an awesome crystal, stretched out over their heads. 23 And under the firmament their wings spread out straight, one toward another. Each one had two which covered one side, and each one had two which covered the other side of the body. 24 When they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of many waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a tumult like the noise of an army; and when they stood still, they let down their wings. 25 A voice came from above the firmament that was over their heads; whenever they stood, they let down their wings.
26 And above the firmament over their heads was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like a sapphire stone; on the likeness of the throne was a likeness with the appearance of a man high above it. 27 Also from the appearance of His waist and upward I saw, as it were, the color of amber with the appearance of fire all around within it; and from the appearance of His waist and downward I saw, as it were, the appearance of fire with brightness all around. 28 Like the appearance of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the brightness all around it. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD.

i've checked,
in the KJV version of genisis the word "space" appears twice and the word "ship" appears as a plural once, neither in any related sence, neither appear at all in ezekiel, so where to from here?

There, you found it yourself, and because 1st century man had no other way to explain things it was put as a cloud. Read further get the discription down pat. He describes it as a metal object.

I'm sorry thats supposed to be Exodus. My fault there!

I like this part of the quote, "was like the color of an awesome crystal"
Must be where the kids got the term "it's awesome", from!
Crystal like a, canopy?

THE LOCATION AND FUNCTION OF THE CHARIOT'S ANATOMICAL PARTS*

The Head
The chariot's head-portion consists of a dome that is made of a clear, crystal-like material and occupies the chariot's superior-most position. It is part of the chariot's top-mounted, composite dome, the crystal head of which serves as a rotating, navigational dome.

The Four Faces
Three of the four faces are insignias that are part of a circular ring-like unit that connects superiorly to the clear domed head, occupying the chariot's mid-portion, and inferiorly with stationary, hollow and arched back. The face identified as "the face of a man", or "human face", is of the chariot's angelic pilot, who sits in the chariot's navigational dome.

The Back (rings/rims)
The arched, hollow back occupies the lower part of the chariot's composite dome. It is encircled by eyes, which confirms the fact that it is also circular. The encircling eyes are explained below.

The Eyes
The eyes surround the chariot's hollow, arched back. The eyes are round and function as ports for looking out from the chariot's hollow, top-mounted dome.

The Wings
The wings give the chariot its overall circular or wheel-like shape. The chariot has two horizontal wings on each of its four quadrants that extend at an angle, the one towards the other thus connecting together at the distal point. The wings are for flight.

The Wheel in the middle of the wheel
The greater wheel references the chariot's overall shape, which is circular like a wheel. The wheel in the middle of the greater wheel is a spinning, turbine-like wheel, which functions as the chariot's propulsion system.

The Body
The body is the hollow, central portion of the chariot that is concealed by two horizontally-extended, connecting wings that present on each of the (circular) chariot's four quadrants and, like the composite dome, is an inhabitable part of the chariot. The opening hand that is located "under their wings on their four quadrants", the function of which is established below.

The Legs
The legs are straight and unbending, and provide support for the chariot while standing on the ground. Thus, they are incapable of movement or "walking" on the ground. The four legs are position underneath the chariot's wings and are attached to the chariot's body-portion which is "covered" on all four quadrants by the "two covering wings." The legs are made of a polished amber-colored metal that are likened to highly polished brass.

The Feet
The feet are round and flat, like that sole of a calf's foot, and are made of the same material as the legs. Their round, flat, beveled shape provides the chariot the ability to stand in a level position on the ground.

The Hand
The opening and closing hand is located under the chariot's wings and functions as an entrance into its hollow, central body.

The Spirit of the Living Creature
This references the angelic spirit(s), inhabitant(s), or living beings that are stated in the biblical text to be located "inside of the wheel." It also references the "face of the man."

oh my word, its a perfect description of every abduction case i've even read, i feel so enlightened i'm creaming myself, i can't believe this was in the bible all along and i never noticed.................. no,.......... hang on,.................... wait a minute,................... well, there is that slight discrepency there where instead of discribing little grey guys with probes there's a description of huge multi faced creatures with massive wings, and then there is that bit where he substatutes "smooth silent saucer shaped metal object" for "big whirlwind with fire and lightning", but there are some wheels mentioned, except they're on the ground.

first you assume a space ship is being described and then you decide to look for answers as to why god would need a space ship!!!!!

hey man, you coulda just asked, it was obviously the gwa'ouuld all along and they've been fooling us all in order to come back as reptilians to harvest our outer-cosmic healing inner light to use against the angels in a war thats gone on at a higher dimension for thousands of years, in fact, each time you say the "our father" a nutron bomb explodes in another dimension and hell gets another crazy-paving tile. whats more, and it hasn't been anounced yet so i shouldn't really say, but what the heck, the day of rekoning is the 1st of january 2102, the myans were mirror writers, who'lda thunk eh?

As some of the posts here intimate, the god of the bible in Ezekiel was more than likely a space being monitoring and guiding man's ascension toward its destiny with the cosmological space community made up of many other races of technologically advanced beings. Indeed, the reading of Ezekial's account of god in the sky is fairly obvious to those without a blind, mystical opinion of god.

That being said, a god is what we believe a god to be. God is a creator. We are creators. We are gods at some level of creation. The bible is filled with many misinterpreted passages and truths. Old school religionists are not able to see the beauty and wisdom of our godness and relationship with the god of all: the space between all that is.
