EXPLANATION
God is the spiritual being who is worshipped by Christians, Jews and Muslims. God is eternal — i.e., has always existed, and will always exist. Christians, Jews and Muslims acknowledge God as the creator of the world, and the origin of all life, and believe that human beings can only find ultimate fulfillment by having a relationship with God.
Human beings can come to know God in different ways. One is through our experience of the beauty and mystery of creation. Another is through our experience of important events in life, such as birth or death, love, marriage, sickness or failure. A third is reading the sacred books of the great religions (such as the Bible or the Quran), and their teachings.
