Probably the reason organized religion as Christianity is not being as successful is because the focus has not been on the truth displayed in the scriptures and in the life of Jesus. The goal of scripture and the teachings of Jesus was not to separate his own person as some special being with...
Thanks. No doubt he became all, overcame all, and rose with all that will rise out of our own corruption with him. He is the Christ and he yearns to quicken in us as us. May we surrender to the cry of sonship. Forgiveness makes way for innocence, innocence removes the accuser thus bringing...
No, not after, but now. You can't deny that you live. Even if you didn't know about oxygen, your lungs would still expand and contract keeping you alive. You don't have to believe in water to be a fish. You already are alive, and living off universal substance both emotionally and physically...
I agree that is true, at least you don't have to believe in a deity apart from yourself, and you may not consider yourself as a deity either. A good life can only be lived by someone who believes that it is a possibility for them and they haven't given in to a victim mentality to where they feel...
Your own quote "If God exists, he always has, and we certainly haven't found him yet. My biggest fear is settling on what could be an illusion when the truth might be attainable". It truly is an endless search trying to find someone through knowledge who is at the root of your being. Truth is...

There is a way to give up while you are still in the body and experience eternity with its benefits. Its just a willing submission to something, someone greater than our reasoning mind. Eternity is already embedded in our nature, we are eternal beings. We walk in too much mind emotional clutter...
You may not be asking for help when you cry, at least in your conscious mind. The cry is not an admittance of God, at least if you decide its not. The cry and everything related to it does not come from an intellectual place. It comes from an "infinite life" stuck in a mortal body that has been...
I know this is an older forum thread but I just wanted to comment on it.
The stone itself wasn't given the ability to resist. Yet it is infused with life that makes it desire to respond. The thought of this stone lifting question only makes sense in a non-relational existence between the stone...
When I came to a saving knowledge or you might say when I started my Christian journey that question "Who created God?" was a mystery to me along with "If you go to the end of creation or the universe, then whats on the other side?" After many, many moons, meaning almost 30 years of ignoring...
