This article undertakes a rational exploration of the concept of God, emphasizing the intellectual traditions that have shaped theism from antiquity to the modern era. Rather than relying solely on religious faith or revelation, this study focuses on logical reasoning, metaphysical analysis, and ethical reflection to evaluate the coherence of belief in God. Drawing from classical philosophy, medieval scholasticism, Enlightenment thought, and contemporary analytic philosophy, this article examines major arguments for and against God\u2019s existence, including cosmological, ontological, teleological, and moral approaches. It also engages with critiques from atheism, agnosticism, and secular humanism, exploring whether rational theism can withstand scientific scrutiny and philosophical skepticism. Through comparative analysis, the discussion highlights the evolving nature of the God-concept, ranging from impersonal metaphysical principles to a personal and morally perfect deity. Ultimately, this paper argues that rational inquiry into God remains central to philosophical discourse, offering not only intellectual clarity but also ethical and existential depth. In doing so, it demonstrates that philosophical theism provides a meaningful framework for understanding reality, morality, and the human search for ultimate meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> God-Concept, Cosmological, Ontological, Teleological, Moral, Philosophical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-text-color\"><strong>Page No: 50-55<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-6-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bijmrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/50-55.pdf\">download journal<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Shiuli Mishra &amp; Dr. Sanjay Das DOI Link: https:\/\/doi.org\/10.70798\/Bijmrd\/03080007 Abstract: The question of God\u2019s existence and nature has remained one of humanity\u2019s most profound and enduring inquiries, deeply embedded in philosophy, theology, science, and culture.
