Perhaps god is the smallest possible point which connects to all other points?

(3) Jesus said, "If those who lead you say to you, 'See, the kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the kingdom is inside of you, and it is outside of you. When you come to know yourselves, then you will become known, and you will realize that it is you who are the sons of the living father. But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty and it is you who are that poverty."
(29) Jesus said, "If the flesh came into being because of spirit, it is a wonder. But if spirit came into being because of the body, it is a wonder of wonders. Indeed, I am amazed at how this great wealth has made its home in this poverty."
John 14:20
On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.
John 15:4
Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
Caterpillar: By the way, I have a few more helpful hints. One side will make you grow taller...
Alice: One side of what?
Caterpillar: ...and the other side will make you grow shorter.
Alice: The other side of what?
Caterpillar: THE MUSHROOM, OF COURSE!

How can anyone even claim to know the size of God?

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

I think you would be right. Alpha and Omega suggests that He is Infinity both ways. Infinity, yet eternal, yet divided into temporal and finite. There cannot be an infinite number of finite things. There cannot be a finite number of infinite things.
Wrap your mind around that.

Above Father is a massive spirit, a human mind can't begin to imagine how big. He sits above all and is all. But, when he speaks or does work, he detaches himself and comes in the form of an entity shaped like man. He is taller than all of the others above. When he detaches himself and sits on the throne or comes here, can not be measured by human standards.
Revelations speaks of a mighty angel (The Arc - The Chief Angel) standing on land and water, this will give a small comparison to his size. But, he is still taller than all of the other angels.edit on 11-6-2012 by jhill76 because: (no reason given)

OP, I think you need to be clearer.... which god out of the thousands invented is supposed to be big?
Are people that believe in (insert whatever god here) now suggesting that he, she or it (or a group of gods sitting around chilling) are now responsible for the creation of everything in space, all the suns and all the planets?
Why your god and not one of the others?
Why was Pluto invented or manufactured by your gods for example? It serves no purpose.... so it seems to me that your gods (if they actually existed) don’t do things anywhere near perfectly and they like wastage and debris floating about.
No, the universe was not made by some perfect god of yours, nor would I call any god 'really big' under any circumstances.
PS: My apologies to you Pluto, I know you really wanted to be a planet.
