Topic: can you describe God without sounding delusional | |
---|---|
just ask any amputee that prayed to Jesus or God and you will see they didn't get their limb back
I think I'm starting to get his motivation for all this. So funches... What did you lose and pray for? What unanswered prayer are you pining over? What indignation have you suffered and choose to blame God for? What sense of control are you striving for, yet know deep down inside is not attainable? Most importantly... What is the source of the self pity and anger, as you stand on your lonely mountain top, shaking your fist at a God you don't believe exists? ok..now "justme" thinks he's Dr. Phil, but seem to have the mentality of the guests that appears on Jerry Springer |

It is one of reciprocity,, Funches, not one of the will of God. All things considered, it does employ the age old adage, " do unto others as you would have them do to you". Apparently the lesson was not learned and the lesson was retaught. Ad infinitum, if you will. Nothing has changed. It is an age old lesson to learn on any level at any time by anyone. At All. Would you agree? but yet it remains in the bible and only slowed down because the governments had to override the laws of God and now frown upon stoning children to death ...the religious get to practice their religion as long as they abide by the laws of Man not God funches, True. And God has been described as having put the children of Israel in that predicament for their own good as evidenced by the writings of the Book of Daniel and his contemporaries the 'prophets of JHWH'. hhmmm........ ( when blessed in subjection to Nebuchadnezzar, yes?) but still it shows how man (government) had to step in and right the wrong of God funches, right the wrong of God, or further undignify the Judaic traits of assumption? One cannot build a house on a foundation of sand and expect to remain standing when the big storm hits, can one? It is not a sign of defamation of a family, in this case, called by Abraham's name ; but one of displaying to the world, in the end, that JHWH will not utterly reject Israel, but rather sustain it. That is the message I receive in my heart, and cling to it. |

ok..now "justme" thinks he's Dr. Phil, but seem to have the mentality of the guests that appears on Jerry Springer I don't intend to be overcritical funches. It is human nature to blame something or somebody for our failures, short comings or our inability to live life on life's terms. Just go observe a daycare or kindergarten recess.. It is rampant. However.. most of us at some point along the way, learn to take responsibility, accept our circumstance... and live our life down here with the rest of us. Abandoning the self pity and rage. Even at age 52.. it is not too late. |

I have no desire to describe God, or my understanding of God to anyone. Anymore then you desire to describe your home in proof of it's existence. Or scientist desire to describe light as wave particles, what comprises a quark or lepton, define gravity to everyone's satisfaction. Some things are just better unexplained to their fullest potential as far as the masses are concerned. There is much in this world we cannot explain, describe... yet take for granted it's very existence. Thinking in those terms..even the most rational left brained Scientist cannot rule out something as supernatural as a God. However.. put some personal angst, a bit of self aggrandising narcissism in the mix.... and that scientist will become your favorite passive aggressive ally in this mission of yours. |

So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands, and put my finger in the mark of the nails and my hand in his side, I will not believe.”
John 20:25 Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!" Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." (see John 20:24-29) |

No pun, no condescension. Israel has accomplished this feat of sequester. As has the U.S. by inference and being predominately Christian in civilian numbers. But not a Christian Theocracy , as openly admissable, but covertly so by inference. And so as found in Islamic nations throughout the world. The tensions are overwhelming and very emotionally charged. I cannot and will not defend any of them. They are all deplorably self serving and determined to preserve their own cultures by any means to an end. But does "JHWH" or "God" bear the responsibility for religion and its excessive where ever found, or does religion bear the accountability for its abuse of "JHWH" or "God" ? The implied consent between you and I may harbor a stance of impartiality in the foolishness of governments, but we still are forced to recognize and suffer their ill will. But then, why should a Supreme Diety also suffer such indignations? |
