Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "God"

A: God forbid is an expression that you strongly wish something will not happen (to the point that you want God himself to prevent it). It can be used in a threatening way also, like here he is saying "You'd better not leave me by myself (abandon me), or I'll give you hell".

A: I think she’s referring to the fact that she believes that god shows up through other people.

For example, if you were stuck on a mountain staving and you prayed to god for help, then a stranger comes by and rescues you. She would see that as an act from god, showing up to help you.

A: God still loves you, don’t sadden his heart. (Do not make him sad)

A: I'm pretty sure this means the same as "It's about time he did!" although it probably depends on the context

"God knows" is an expression usually said to mean that something can't become known, literally "No one but God knows". But I think it can also have other meanings in other contexts.

A: To answer this fully, I would need to know the full context.

But I will say this.
Some people think that God is inside of all of us, that we are not separate from God.
So, possibly, someone is referring to that.

A: God forbid you go out alone at night.

God forbid him having a good time (this ones a little sarcastic, but the term god forbid can be used as such)

A: God knows when I will meet you again.

It is mainly used for things you are really curious about and know nothing about

A: God forbid something bad would have happened.

A: They are both Gods but from different religion.

God- Christian
Allah- Muslim

A: it's mostly directed towards religion. Christians consider saying "Oh My God!" Is saying the lord's name in vain. Which goes against one of the Ten Commandments. Other than that "God" is more rude and offensive to people than "Gosh" is consider. Hope this helps and make sense! ^.^;

A:
some people don't say oh my god! because it can be offensive to religious use God in vain
so they say oh my gosh!

A: "Oh my gosh" is an example of a euphemism, which is an expression used as a substitute for an expression which could offend or appear harsh to some people.

A: 'oh my god' is an expression of amazement:
"Oh my god, this is great news!"
Excitement:
"Oh my god, I can't wait to go to Paris!"
disbelief:
"Oh my god, is this real? this can't be happening"
exasperation:
"Oh my god, you're so annoying!"
concern for someone if they've just hurt themself:
"Oh my god, are you okay?"
or, on its own, surprise/shock
"oh my god!"

'Oh my' is similar, but it feels toned down, more reserved and much less urgent than 'oh my god'.
For example, if I saw something slightly unusual or surprising, like a man dressed completely in neon green, I could say:
"oh my, that guy's got interesting fashion taste"
but if I saw a man naked, running around and screaming, I could say:
"Oh my god, what the hell is that guy doing?!"

A: God gave his children free will, and as a result, they became cruel animals. Or
God granted his children freedom, and as a result, they became cruel animals.

A: @GhaydaR

Yes, the grammar is fine. I understand what you mean. You could totally say that – but be aware, the word "benediction" is not really understood by about half of the population. It has not been a common word for a very long time.

A: It's a very long sentence, try something like,
God : With the world at the point of its annihilation, I am deeply hurt that people cannot realise they only care about money and profit.

A: Now we can do it! Thanks to God( the almighty)

A: effed is being used instead of a curse word. the sentence is basically saying that God did not create the world in seven days. that he created the world in one night instead of seven days

A: Yes, very natural!

A: Ah, that was not clear 😊 Well, if God didn’t make Paul go to Philippi and Paul was already going and God was just helping him along, then you can say … to help Paul get to Philippi.

A: It’s sort of like telling someone to “get a hobby” in a bit of a rude way. It’s sort of something you can say to tell someone to mind their own business.

A: "I swear to God" is stronger than "I swear", especially if the person is very religious. But of course people lie sometimes

A: here I think technically God is used as short for "my God" or "oh my God", which is as a remark to show surprise at the outcome. the outcome being that the guy said something so simple and yet it made him "break down and tell him everything".

it's like saying "and, wow, it must have...".

it's something that could be common in speech when talking informally but not really in writing or formal situations.
