Who is Actually God?
We do not have to bewildered in trying to find out who is because the definition has already been given by great sage Parasara Muni, the father of Srila Vyasadeva, who is the compiler of the Vedic wisdom. In this connection Srila Prabhupada explains as follows in his purport to Bhagavd-gita, Chapter Two, Text 2:
"The Sanskrit word bhagavān is explained by the great authority Parāśara Muni, the father of Vyāsadeva. The Supreme Personality who possesses all riches, all strength, all fame, all beauty, all knowledge and all renunciation is called Bhagavān. There are many persons who are very rich, very powerful, very beautiful, very famous, very learned, and very much detached, but no one can claim that he possesses all riches, all strength, etc., entirely. Only Kṛṣṇa can claim this because He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. No living entity, including Brahmā, Lord Śiva, or Nārāyaṇa, can possess opulences as fully as Kṛṣṇa. Therefore it is concluded in the Brahma-saṁhitā by Lord Brahmā himself that Lord Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. No one is equal to or above Him. He is the primeval Lord, or Bhagavān, known as Govinda, and He is the supreme cause of all causes."
Therefore if anyone claims to be God, he must show that he possesses unlimited power, beauty, renunciation, knowledge, wealth, and fame. If he cannot demonstrate these opulences in full we must immediately reject his claim to God.

Answers According to the Vedic Wisdom
Question: Can a Human Being Be God?
Are enlightened beings deluding themselves? How can our insignificantly tiny and limited human consciousness really be God, infinity or all that is? Have you seen how small humans are compared to the earth, let alone the vastness of creation?Answer: Only Deluded Fools Think So
Anyone who thinks he is God is a most deluded fool. The truly enlightened person realizes that he is the eternal servant of God and fully engages himself in the service of God.Sankarshan Das Adhikari
