Below is my definition of God, What I would like is everyone's opinion of it. Do you think it is a valid definition? Could you improve on it? Or do you have any criticism of it?
GOD = THE ULTIMATE POSSIBLE BEING/THING = Who knows and see all possibilities, and has total control over them. Also having the power to bring any possibility that it chooses into existence.
Hi ROTU. Welcome to EvC. In your OP you didn't state whether you didn't state which god you are identifying. There have been thousands; likely millions of gods throughout human history.
If your question applies to the Biblical god, this god would be defined as follows.
1. Proper name (like surname) of god = Jehovah as verified by over 6000 references in the oldest manuscripts of the OT.
2. Father of his only born son, Jesus as per John 3:16 and other NT references.
3. Omnipotent, omniscient, eternal supreme creator having no beginning being of the universe from whom all things (energy/matter) came and by whom all things (energy/matter) exist.
4. Designer of all that exists.
5. Monotheist being the only existing god of the universe.

BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.
The immeasurable present eternally extends the infinite past and infinitely consumes the eternal future.
