Before I offer the support of a short couple of verses from scripture, may I interject two ideas which premise a perspective that avoids the very type of interdenominational debate evidence in this thread?
1) The assumption that one makes concerning the English word "God," as regards what a God is,... pre-sets the psychology by which people later discover complications impossibly difficult to align with the rest of scripture.
The statement, for instance, that the first bible (Old Testament) necessarily must become subordinate to the second bible (New Testament) in order to avoid contradictions is what I mean.
2) A definition of God, the Father of the universe, the Almighty, which allows for no such lack of congruence between both bibles seems, by the rule of Oscam's Razor to be the correct and proper translation and interpretation.
Consider this verse from Genesis:
Gen. 1:26 And God, (The Universal Force, the Macrocosmos), said, "Let us, (the Natural Laws), make man, (a conscious mind, to model us, the Universe, as in a Microcosmos of his mind, in order that our image might be modeled after our own orderly organization): and let him (that conscious mind,) have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."
Gen. 1:27 So God (The Universal Force) created man (an abstract mind in his own image, enabled to image The Universal Force, abstractly and mathematically), so created God (The Universal Force) him; male and female created he them.
