ok. Well, I am also afraid. I am afraid of using email to contact you, since we only talk on the forum. But, if you are having trouble using a private chat in the chat room, I can instruct you on how to engage in one. Only if you want to.

Don't you have a registered Topix account???

You can send private messages ya know?

well, not exactly. There are some people who can travel outside of their bodies (without dying), but it is supposed to be very dangerous, and I consider it unholy. J E says that animals go to heaven.

Yes, and dangerous. J E ?

Religions are like flowers... there are many different kinds with many different smells... but they are all about the same thing, spreading propagating their own kind.
Each wants everyone to think and believe as they do.
BUT... people are different for a reason... if God would have wanted us all to think and believe the same way... he would have made us all the same.
God is a personal thing... if you don't personally seek him out and discover him first hand... you are failing the test of life.
I have no been inside a church in over 20 years... I have not touched a Bible in almost as long... but I see, hear, smell, taste, feel and talk with God every day.

Yeah, I think that he reveals separate things to each person, even non-believers. I DEFINITELY think he has a different experience interacting with each person, if I am to pretend to fathom his experience of things. But what do you mean when you say you do these things?

John Eldredge, the guy I won't stop mentioning long after it has seemed very annoying in my opinion. I'm very impressed with the books I've read.

If I decide to make an account, I'll let you know. If you decide to come to the chat room, let me know. I don't want people at my school or in my area to harass me about the things I post, but it is in my opinion, slightly obvious who's posting this, anyway, to some who know me, if they're reading it.

I believe that by speaking with you... by interacting with you... I am communicating with God.

God is everywhere... God is everything... he screams out for us at every turn... and we keep turning the other way looking for him.

Through people, things, travel and experience... I think for some reason I am hyper aware of this connection... so my communication line with God... and his direction of my life is spot on.

Everywhere I go... everything I do... it all keeps pointing me in the same direction.

Sorry, I am not avoiding personal communication with you... I'm just not comfortable with the format of the site you sent me to, but I did register an account... so if need be...

Interesting. I am familiar with the name and of whom you speak.
I lived in Manitou Springs for many years.

And what "direction" might this be?

The direction I am headed.

I've been turning away my entire life... looking for another path... I want desperately not to take another step... but God insists.

Can't be more specific than that?

I doubt that God is aware of your direction, much less concerned about it.

Towards the light.

In this life... you either head towards the darkness... or towards the light.

The further you get from one... the closer you get to the other... the more scary it becomes.

Brilliant light can be just as frightening as total darkness... most of us dwell in the comfortable middle ground and call it reality... when in fact there is so much more.

God is aware and concerned with ALL of our directions... even yours.

But your very words you betray your disbelief in him... but he knows you... and your direction and he believes in it.

You're just talking nonsense.

But just for the sake of more nonsense, on what do you base this knowledge of what a Supreme Being does and doesn't do?

God created everything of himself... everything is of God.

God is both good and evil.

There is none good, but God.

Equally there is none bad but God.

There is no bad or evil in God. He gave us all a free will to follow Him or not. He created heaven and earth and all that dwell here. He gave man dominion over all creatures on land, in the sea, and in the sky. I believe in God and the fact that he has a plan for us, I believe he died on The Cross to pay for our sins, and I believe that all who believe in Him shall have ever lasting life. There are those who would like to explain Him away. They can't do it. It's called FAITH and when you have faith there is no need to fear.

Sorry, but... according to the Bible that you so believe in... first there was nothing.

God created everything... God created good... God created evil... therefore God must be both good and evil.

Neither would exist without him.

It's a Yin Yang thing.
