One and the same
I couldn't find God anywhere I looked either, until I searched myself.
It troubles me that you are looking for God on these forums, and "other places". I wish I had something of some significance to say to you, for once.

Re: One and the same
Yes, I know, and I am fine with that. It's your road to travel.
And since you know everything about the "Christian Godhead" and the bible, your free and clear to move along. No need to waste your time or others.
*edit*
By looking for evidence and signs and wonders all the time you might be missing out on the more obvious stuff.

Re: Mind over Matter..if you don't mind,it does not matter!
I'm sorry phatboy, but I do not need to tone it down, as I have not toned it up. Some people like General Krull here need to now the hard facts.
Jesus wasn't a pussy when he preached to some. He was a downright menace sometimes. It's called tough love, but its love none the least.
I have stated that his belief is fine with me, as all others belief's too. I am not here to dictate people's beliefs. But since there is nothing that you or I can say to him, because he now knows enough about the "Christian Godhead", he's been there, done that,then why should we bother? At this point all you could do is pray for him, which I do.
He is looking for signs and wonders, and evidence of God, and it is probably all around him, and in him.
The good thing is that he is looking for God, which I respect greatly.

Re: Mind over Matter..if you don't mind,it does not matter!
The only hard fact is that you have a belief that many of us have decided to discount.
You know, it's not a fact. And what is scary is that from the same reply that you grabbed this quote from,
quote:
I'm sorry phatboy, but I do not need to tone it down, as I have not toned it up. Some people like General Krull here need to now the hard facts.
which was a very short, clear, and concise reply. Plus it was meant for phatboy not even you.
You choose to ignore this quote from myself :
I have stated that his belief is fine with me,
So, again I tell you it's totally fine with me, if you choose not to believe. Ultimately, it's not in my hands, but in God's hands. I am doing my part.
But you keep persisting, so that leads me to wonder what is really going through your head. Or are you just not capable of expressing yourself clearly. You seem to be confused. Maybe in your hope to find God, you are showing frustration when you don't find him?
I got involved because you made a blanket statement that you couldn't find God in these threads, or other places you read about. You also are pre-programmed from the religion you were involved in, and the experience you had there. I am here to tell you that it is possible, that the truth of the Christian Godhead has not been revealed to you, but rather hidden from you. After all if the devil exists, then he sure wouldn't want a person as intelligent as yourself to become a Christian, because you would be a powerful force in God's kingdom. And you would do many great works, and help the needy. Help bring others to light, and spread love like an infectious disease.
Use the force Luke.
