10. ‘People should only see God in one form. ’ What do you think
‘People should only see God in one form.’ What do you think? Explain your opinion.
I agree because Jews, Christians and Muslims see God in one form because they think that dividing God in many forms would limit God and limit his power. Therefore, by only seeing God in one form it illustrates the oneness and uniqueness of God.
Furthermore, in the Qur’an which are the words of God, it clearly states that ‘there is no God but Allah’.

1 mark for a simple point
I agree because the terms are total opposites and contradict each other. This is because God cannot be immanent and be closely involved in the world and care for everyone and be impersonal and be remote and unaffected by humans.
Furthermore, I agree because God must just be an impersonal God to be allowing all of the pain and suffering in the world as an immanent God would not allow this.
