Is God consciousness? Is that a fact? Maybe, but that expression is not found in scripture. In fact, the word consciousness is not in scripture.
We know that John 4:24 does not say that God is a Spirit, as shown in the KJV. Neither does it say that God is Spirit as in the CLV. The original Greek is Πνεῦμα ὁ Θεός, which is pnuema (spirit) the Theos (God). The translation" God is Spirit" is not accurate because the word is does not appear in the originals. The Emphatic Diaglott has translated John 4:24 this way:
John 4:24 A spirit the God; and those worshipping him, in spirit and truth it behooves to worship.
If one takes the liberty of saying that God is Spirit, then would it not be reasonable to say that God has a Spirit? God mentions His Spirit. He possesses His spirit.
Mat_12:18 Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.
Gen_6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
The well known scripture I John 4:8 tells us that God is love.
1Jn 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
Here the word "is " in the phrase "God is love" appears in the original manuscripts (Strong's G2076). Not like in John 4:24. Therefore, would it not be correct to say that if God is love, He has love?
So can we say that if some thing is (exists), then can it can be said that some thing may have the attribute of having? To have something is to posses it.
Luk_21:19 In your patience possess ye your souls.
Primary dictionary definition of "have":
1. a. to hold or maintain as a possession, privilege, or entitlement
I hope this is not getting too much into semantics.
Man has thoughts. God has thoughts.
It is not that God is thoughts, it is just that He has thoughts.
Psa_92:5 O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.
Psa_146:4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
Isa_55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Isa_55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Heb_4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Also there are scriptures that talk about God as having a soul although I would conclude that is simply a way in which God personifies Himself for our feeble understanding and benefit.
