Your God

Doubt is reason attempting to overcome cognitive dissonance. In the end, it is better to understand and accept that there is no god(s).

I have problems with using the designation 'your God, or my God.' It does not make much sense.

Rejection or acceptance is a human egocentric notion and perspective and not likely representative of the relationship of God to individuals, humanity nor the greater natural existence.
most people seem to think heaven is exclusionary
most of us won't make it in the door

and in the contrary.....you could up alongside a large crowd
that doesn't like you

to the affirmative I believe.....we end up alongside others that think and feel as we do
how else to be happy?
how else to be fair?

I don't think if a God can not be heard of the people who wish to follow him/her/it. it is the God who does not speak to them, it is more likely that it is the human beings ow fault they lost "connection" with God. meaning it is the human being who must work harder spiritually to be able to hear God again

I think the same thing. God doesn't hate, we irrationally hate God, and somehow evil got its hands on invincibility, being that non-violence host the power of a anti-Christ in more than one way and hates pacifist.

God doesn't hate,
and Sodom and Gomorrah…?
the Great Flood?
the plagues upon Pharaoh?

and Moses was not allowed to enter the promised land

and when the Son of Man was crucified …..God and heaven said nothing
and He was heard to say.....Where ARE You?
Why have you forsaken Me?

Forbidden good and evil to the final battle the rest is the fallen.

What? Me worry?
mmmmm…..no
it wasn't a bet

God had nothing to prove
and God knew His servant
so.....Job had nothing to prove

it was the devil.....trying to prove himself better than the least of servants

Nope...celestial bar bet...

have you considered?....your God
might not want to be ….YOUR God

have you thought about rejection?.....and the silence that follows

I see the notion is movie script now and then

some one who once knew the Voice of God
but a falling out brought pronouncement...…
He doesn't talk to me anymore

or maybe He is already ….quiet

I think this so called "my god" doesn't have a choice to be.

(Y) am I fighting [our] battles on my own..
Did you not love me?
Have you now been surrendered?
(Y) did you not wait there for me?

Only those who egocentriclly believe in the exclusivity of the belief that their God and scripture is the only 'true way.

God is not fair from the perspective of the desires of humans. Too much of a human perspective of how one may want things to comfortable for them.

belief follows God

or it becomes another path in some other direction

are you moving toward God?
He might then be called …...'center'

if He is moving toward you......you are the target

the Almighty has no choice?

that takes away the title.....God Almighty

This is human issue of making choices.

The God Almighty need not make choices. The nature of th Omnipotent Omnipresent God and the Divine is what it is absolutely without alternatives.
