RE: Knowing god outside a biblical sense

I'm still wondering if it was God's or Holy Spirit's.
I think it's important who's testicles (if more than one sperm cell was involved, I've heard individuals with counts below 50,000 are actually considered to be STERILE, and no one is claiming God (or Holy Spirit, for that matter) shoots blanks) fathered Jesus.
Scripture is clear, Holy Spirit did the deed, but Jesus is invariably referred to as God's son, not Holy Spirit's. So something was going on. Holy Spirit had a vessel of some kind to carry the load. Maybe there is an as yet unexplained Holy Relic in a cathedral in Italy somewhere that needs to be considered with this function in mind.
The 'smoking gun' if you will.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I'm assuming Holy Spirit was at least sanitary in carrying out this little task.
And I'll hope He wasn't titillated at the sight of Mary's po-po, and professionally carried out His God assigned task.

Enough with the nonsense.
God, biblically, is unknowable.
Yet, theists will continually raise arguments stating, "god disapproves".
The more I hear from theists, the more it seems their arguments are more in favor of their own personal opinion reather than something objectionable to a god.
The whole point of the bible is to "Vett" what God reveals to you/what God makes known to you. It is how one knows he is experiencing God and not some 'other' being.
God is only knowable through scripture.

I'm trying !!! Just keep tripping over zingers, however . . . .
John 10:30 (KJV)
30 I and my Father are one.
John 14:28 (KJV)
28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
Yeah, I'm still struggling with The Trinity.

Now it is "vetting" nice. Yet he cant keep firearms out of the hands of disturbed people.
Nope, sorry, if the standard is that you'll burn in hell simply for not believing, but you have never been violent your entire life, but a murderer who believes asks for forgiveness gets into the after party, no thanks, even if I did believe I would not want to hang out with violent criminals, even if they said they were sorry.

Crap !!
Encountered another zinger:
Acts 2:22 (KJV)
22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
Man, this Trinity thing just gets harder and harder to understand . . .

Were the 'disturbed' when they purchased said firearm?

Glob...
So what about those who do not say they were sorry? You do understand Hell will be brimming with those who have 'killed' and feel absolutely no remorse.
that the same hell the 'unbelievers get to goto.'

let me lighten the load.
God is a title and not a name.
As in:
God the Father
God the Son
God the Holy Spirit.
