I met God

I can't tellyou any absolute pronouncement of how God works. I can say that I was born again, but whether or not I met God or whether I simply became aware of someone who was always permeating me I cannot say. I also cannot judge other religions.I do believe that there is one God whom every religion and individual can experience. I believe that we are a product of Gods creative imagination rather than He (She or IT) being a product of our imagination.I can also say that it helps to have an open mind and heart and to assume nothing.

Just a quick personal note: I don't directly hear an audible voice. Only perhaps 3 or 4 times has this ever happened, and I am not sure if it was objective or subjective. I DO believe that God uses other people to convey what He wants said at times. I also believe that He uses silence to make me aware of choices and changes in my directed thought.Many believe that God is a creation of our imagination. I don't believe this, but can understand why others do believe it.

Perhaps it was the silence that He was attempting to get you to appreciate. People had probably been telling you what God said all your life. He was attempting to show you what it meant to simply accept His love and drink in the silence of a calm day. Of course, I don't know. Thats between you two!

Allow me to speculate, here. God does not speak to everyone the same way. I have no idea if George Bush hears God or if he only thinks he hears God. I do not believe that God approves of a war primarily to secure Western Capitalist interests. Many Christians believe that humans are incapable of following the rules anyway and that only through faith in Christ (the character of God) can we make it to heaven. I happen to believe that its a matter of trust but also a matter of doing the best that we possibly can.You say that you crave God and that you are curious about the end times? Well...if this is in any way true, common sense to me dictates that only after the sum of humanity has attempted to do the best that we can within the context of our inclinations and awareness, then and only then would God intervene in the affairs of humanity.In the meantime, we would do well to attempt to get along with our fellow humans.
