    I feel you are reaching out for a reason other then just God are you?
    God is all around us in nature, animals, humans, stars in sky he loves you no matter what you have done. If you are interested in faith buy a more modern version of the bible NIV is good translation. Start reading new testement this is the story of when Jesus walked the earth it is a good place to start in Matthew. Faith is revealed by God to you from reading the word and praying and going to church these three things are important for a good walk with God. I suggest finding a church who teaches the word and teaches what the holy spirit does in your life. If you need to contact me in private please do.
    May God make his presence known in your life and you be filled with the holy spirit that guides us in our lives.
    God bless!

    God and religion are not the same thing. Many Christians believe Christ is God but then Jesus will contradict himself and say he isn't God. So all religions are just our human attempt to explain God and bring God down to our level. God loves us all or he loves none of us. God doesn't care if you have a religion or if you believe in him or not. God's love is far beyond our comprehension and cannot be put in a book or a religion. I know many Atheists as some of the niceist and happiest peple I have ever met. Proves to me that God believes in you even if you don't believe in him. Religion is a good starting point but not the end when it comes to finding out abut God. As we grow and learn in the physical world so we do the same in the spiritual world so be suspicious of any religion that has all the answers and doesn't allow you to queston it's beliefs. Any viable religious or spiritual belief will always leave room for questioning and spiritual growth.

    I agree with you totally so why! are you assuming I dont think God loves everyone?
    I never said that and never will check out my other blog on here called, Father's Love letter" and it will let you know how I view God. I think you dont agree with my views because I suggest reading the bible or praying or even feeling the presence of God in my life. It is hard for a non-believer to know what faith is and I was just trying to explain my faith to everyone. bible praying feeling presence god life non-believer faith explain faith

    I'm only stating my view where would I assume you ment God doesnt love eveyone? I was just commenting is all. I happen to agree with eveything you wrote and thought it especailly kind that you said you could be contacted anytime. You are are a beautiful Christian to me and I did not mean to sound otherwise. My goodness you don't know me, You don't know what I beleive. Where did you get the idea I'm a non-believer? I believe in God. I stated in my commnet that I was a Christian at one time. I totally respect what you had to say on this blog and your belief as a Christian. As for praying every day and reading the Bible I do both. I beleive that Christ walked this earth but I just don't believe some of the things other Christrians beleive so I don't call myself a Christian.

    It's OK I have had to make plenty of apologies myself here on SH. I do hope you can find a church you like. Makes no difference if you to to church or not. I have seen plenty of Christians here on SH that do go to church that could learn a few things form you like compassion, understanding, love and the desire to help others to know Christ like you do.

    i believe that there are many gods. each religion has a god. if u believe in a certain god, when you die, u go to that heaven. god only is a guardian angel, and will only answer the prayers if it is of the upmost importance. however, there is only one hell. i think god is more of a jesus person, was born like us. this would make sense of the theory of evolution.

    i believe God does excist But we with freedom of choice in the matter, filters or ability to know for sure, not to mention the things that happpen in the world, all human choices, god wants us to make the choice to believe and its not easy, hence why it is written that the path is narrow,( watch for the lil miracles) for instance for instance, my daughter was killed in a car accident,nov.29th ,06 this last nov we were setting off balloons for her with lil messages on them,the baloons had that metalic look to them,it was a cloudy gloomy day and about 2 minutes b4 we let the balloons go a hole was punched in the clouds and lit up the area we were in out in the country, i smilled big,we let our balloons go and the sun reflected off them til we could see them no more, as i said watch for the lil things, i'll give a hint its in a child like trust and knowing in him, hope this was helpfull

    what touching example. I love it! The trick is to learn to recognize the promises of our afterlife. Sort of like looking for little hints along the way. The funny thing is, is that the more you look for them the more you will see.

    I talked about the power of man. How some in the race of men were able to do what seamed to be the imposible. Super men. There was one such man that the bible speaks of these men all came from the blood line of Adam derect desendents of what we are to understand was the first true man made by god in his image .
    The man I would like to talk about was Samson . In the bible we read that he was as strong as a hundred men . It talks about the Idea that Samson on the day of his birth was given to god and that as long as his hair was not cut he would be given the strangth to free his people from there slavers the Philistains through his power given by god as long as he did not drink stonge wine .
    In the story it talks about how he slayed lions with his bare hands and killed over one thousand men with a jaw bone of an ass.
    So we must ask our selves if man is capable of such strangth through the power of god and also if that power can be taken away by god if dis obaying him.
    Then we must look deep in to the mind.

    What part of the mind is there that can produse such power. If we call that power gods will then we must admit that there in those times was an out side influence on the human condition.

    We must seek out what this influence is.

    What part of the mind is there that can produse such power. If we call that power gods will then we must admit that there in those times was an out side influence on the human condition.

    We must seek out what this influence is.
    When we say god do we only mean that god found favor in only one person at that time or was there other stories of men doing great deeds that we have not heard of before?
    I believe in god and the power over the world .
    I believe that he has the power to give man abilities that are super human such as Samson as well as take them away .
    However I would in saying that ask the question as to day in our world where are those type people now. Could it be that god has not found favor in any man sence the bible was written?
    In the bible we here of these great men yet in to day there is not one story as to men like this why. We do not understand the weak reality that man has now come too.
    The human race has found it self alone godless . They except all maner of depravity and evil such as open homosexuality .
    Murder and the will to take the words of the living god out of the minds of other men.
    Yet we seek one that can give us what god gives us with out all the rules of good . It is much easyer for man to do evil among men than to do good .
    Perhaps we have not seen the power of man in these times because god has looked upon man and judged him already.
    In the end times it is said that all manner of evil will move among the minds of men. Perhaps the evil we have read about is here.
    It is said God can not dwell in the place of sin.
    May be the world of men have become so sinfull and evil that god has abandon us to what we call the end times .
    Many who are so used to doing evil have no Idea as to what good is . I mean true good an uncorrupted mind a mind free of the burdens of want desiers of the flesh. I read a story called the Divenchi code.
    In it it speaks of The son of god being involved with a women who bor his offspring that live among us now in our society.
    Could it be that man is so sholow in spirit now that he must believe that the son of god did commit sin To justafiy there own acts of pervertion.

    If that is the case then how could god in human form ever free man from sin that he has committed?
    Many men would use this as a way to free them selves from the gult of there own sin.
    The fact is after gods human form these men would like nothing better than to say that god was tempted by the human flesh. It in there minds brings god down to there level of being human.
    The fact is even in human form the only thing that was human about jesus was his body well his spirit was that above the flesh his true self hidden from the yes of man.
    I believe that if men were to see god as he truly is they would instantly be dead . Blinded desolve become nothing there sould destroyed.
    It is that power that eluminated gods flesh it was such power that could heal the afflicted with but a word a touch mans only belief in god. It is that power that I believe is still able to make superman if they only believe .
    I do not believ that the reason we do not see men with the power of god in them to day is because god has not found favor in man. But I believe that it is man who has not found favor in god.
    There lack of belief mans lack of faith in gods power of being is what keeps man from acheaving the imposible the merical that is gods love power.
    In the bible it speaks of men who follow god all there lives and never waver in there faith as to how god rules their lives. These men are of great power and of mention in the bible asto there knolige of this world and the after life.
    As time has gone on there has not been such a man because the will of man has become weak frail false to the true god .
    Man has manipulated the words the truth the power to his will and in doing so has lost gods messige that contains the power. Many have sought such powers beyond mans understanding taking the wrong paths through spells and worshiping false gods that promise earthly rewards . These men have taken the easy path of choice instead of the path of right over wrong.
    To say one believes in god and his word is a false fallowing of the soul . There have been many through out history who believe in many things but do not act or follow there beliefs they find fault with things in those beliefs that they do not like or wish to follow so they only believe in the parts of rules that allow them to gain earthly power blessings.
    The priests that crisified god were just such people they believed in the word of god just as long as it gave them earthly power over other men as there judges . This is why they made up laws that suited there desires instead of the truth of gods word that would have suited there souls
    Man will take any writings that are of great intrest to there life and change them just enough to make it there own . So lets look at Samson all his life he was given this strangth by god because he followed the true law he did not brake his promise with the one true god . For this god gave Samson great powers of strangth . But when Samson was told not to do something that the flesh desired even though he knew his life may be forfet he chose women flesh over god , In doing so he sined and was punished by loosing his strangth . Man can only follow one god one power he must be faithful unto death of that choice to follow god. If he but wavers slightly and dauts that he is in the service of god all that god gave him can and will be taken from him. Samsons faith in the women broke his faith with god there for he lost his power and was weak like all man. His eyes were put out by those self same men that refuse god. It was only in samsons relisation as to his sin and his true converstion in his soul asking gods forgivness and resuming his faith that his strangth was returned and in doing so Samson took the lives of all those that had made him brake the promice with god. However his faith was that of punishment because he asked god to die among those betrayers as well. So he did.
    We to day if we ever are to seek favor with god we must repent all that we are of the flesh we must remove any dought as to our humanity raise our selves above the flesh and desires of the mortal world around us and have unquestionable faith in god. In doing so then we free our selves and are open to gods power.
    Many say they would want to do this yet can not find the path . It takes more than men can know to achive such enlightendment of spirit those that have have been lifted up and taken unto heaven. The flesh of man is a prison of self want self desire self consumtion of all that is seen by god as walls to the final journy .
    Jesus said man can not see the father unless he goes through the son.
    To but jesus in the form of a siner by any form of mans thinking will never allow man to enter gods kingdom.
    These men that would take any form of the living gods word and change its ture form for self impowerment in front of stupied men who follow anything that makes them feel empowered are all doomed to hell.
    What is hell many ask ? Hell is the place where gods grace is absent . That means there is no good there no possibility of inlightenment as to the truth.
    Hell is mans desires to do all that is wicked and evil with out paying a price. The fact is though in sacrificing good they do pay a price they loose god ! They loose the will to drink of that which is promised.
    I once read a story of a rich man who had more than he would ever need on earth at his gates was a bager who had nothing no clothing no food and his health was very bad.
    The rich man would walk by the poor man never looking at him or offering anything to help him. The diffrence is the poor man had faith in god and the rich man had faith in eathly wealth. It so happens that the rich man died of a hart attack and on the same day the poor man died of starvation.
    On the way to heaven the rich man kiept saying all that he had done in life . He was afraid to be judged by god well on the other hand the poor man said nothing he was glad to be going home to god.
    When they got to heaven the poor man was imeadetly given the finest clothing and robes the best food and the best house . Well the rich man was striped naked and thrown in to the fire pits of hell . The rich man screamed to the pour man for just a drop of water to relieve his suffering.
    The point is what you do in this world will follow you to the next.
    Those that seek god truly will find him those that say they do but do not follow the right path won’t! Its that simple god says he is the way and the light . If we as men believe and act on those beliefs then we shall reseave the powers god has promised us and we shall sit at his right hand.
    So we as thinking men must ask how can we follow god and believe in his word.
    The first thing is stop believing in man ! Ask yourself why are we as men so easily able to believe in the nothings that are all around us than the something that take faith .
    God is faith if we have faith then we have god. A lack of Faith or understanding is with out god.
    Mosses asked god who shall I say sent me .
    God said tell them I am sent You .
    So to say is god real the anwser is a resounding yes Because I am that he is that’s all we as humans need to no in knowing that we have all the power of faith we need to be saved

    I believe that we all are one small piece of the puzzle that makes up the universe. That includes everything, cells, rocks, snow flakes, everything. That together as we merge we become a power. I think the goal is to continue to connect with people, share love, joy and laughter. I do not believe in hell as preached in church. I think we do create our own hells right hear on earth. We need to learn how to harness the power and although I'm not sure how but I really believe it has to do with gratitude, joy and laughter. The positive thinking thing. The Universe will provide for us if we ask it to. but it's more than just asking. Like the phrase, god helps them who helps themselves. You just can't sit back and expect stuff to be dumped in you lap. We have to face our struggles and do the best we can to overcome them. Learn the lessons out of every experience good or bad. Most of the bad stuff contains the hardest lessons but the biggest rewards.

    I also believe that because we are part of this large mass of a universe that our spirits never die. The casings we have created to live on this planet will wear out and our spirits will move on to other plains.

    Hope this helps. Works for me but to each his own.

    Well if we aren't looking then we don't see when he is there. God is never obvious. At one time in my life my dad died, three months later my twin brother committed suicide and three months later my 24 year old son died. At the time I did not know it but I had bipolar disorder. That is why my twin brother committed suicide because he went into a deep depression from bipolar disorder. I got to the point I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt I could not face or handle life any more. At the time I was a Atheist. I planned to take a bunch of pills. Some how this thought came into my mind that I use to believe in God why not ask him for help. I got on my knees and told God this was it if he did not help me it was over for me. Next thing I knew I got up and never planned to kill myself again. Now life did not get any better, in fact, it got worse but i'm still here. So for me personally God was truly there when I needed him.

    mankind has always had a need to explain what they do not understand,hence religions. there must be a creator somewhere but i do not believe it is anywhere near the way organized religion portrays it. you do not need to be bowing and praying to something that you do not know if it exists or not simply because someone else says so or believes it does. a creator with the ability to create the universe is not going to be worried about humans and their petty lives and beliefs. a creator does not need churches or priests or ministers. enjoy creation at its best in nature and the sunrises and sunsets and all creatures on this planet. if a creator wants to be thanked then thank it by admiring its creations.

    I believe that God & religion is a personal thing-a way you choose to live your life & what will guide it. I can't advise you on whether there is a God because I don't know-I like to believe that there is because it comforts me. I enjoy participating in my religion of choice because I love it's history & rituals not because I believe literally everything that is taught. I think you need to find out what comforts you & go with it.

    I believe god was made up for a few different reasons:
    1. To explain things that people were unable to explain at that primative point and time of human existance.
    2. For those who were able to understand events a little better I think used their knowledge as a tool to control people.
    3. All gods seem to have a self serving purpose that is extremely humanly emotional and ignores what really happens in nature

    My beliefs are sort of complicated so bare with me.

    For one, I do believe in an "Almighty Creator": When I look at the world, I see such beauty that I can't believe that it all came together in some crazy random happenstance. I feel that Jesus' teachings for the most part were wise and worth listening to, but personally I'm not sure if I'm ready to accept him as the Christ.
    I also believe that there are higher non-god forces at work that humans cannot comprehend
    Perhaps the most unorthodox of my beliefs is my belief that there is an unseen power that connects all living beings, or, with risk of sounding like a total geek, The Force.

    I'm also open to any discussions on the matter so if you or any other SH feel the need or want to talk about Theology, look me up.

    i happen to believe a lot like you do and so do many other people. I beleive that Jesus was a Saint that walked the earth probably put here by God to teach us some really wonderful lessons just like many other saints, holy men and profits were put her for the same reason. I do not believe that Christianity is the only valid religion in the world or that Christ is the son of God nor do I believe he died to save us form our sins. First God makes us with sin then he dies to take that sin away. Makes no sense to me. I don't believe in sin either. I do not believe any particular religion will get you to heaven. It is the kind of person we are that counts. We don't get any special points for being religious.
