You dont really need the scriptures to have faith in your creator. Moses is a good example. And Jesus didnt write a word himself. If i were to appear befor god himself i would die immideatly. Thats why Jesus has to be the metiator between us and God, and Jesus IS god as a human. It might take half eternity to understand but i can relate to the nessesity of it. Im scared to death of God even though the SCRIPTURES teaches that God IS love. When Jesus and Moses appeared to me i was afraid to even speak. They only expressed joy that i feared god. Jesus pointed to what i think was the father and it didnt feel good. I felt like dirt. It felt like dying and i stopped looking. And according to how i know my creator. He introduces himself to me through visions and stuff. Im too lazy to look up these scriptures. |

Greetings Wanna, I am greatly disturbed by what you have written so far. Let me see if I have an understanding of how you view God. Please correct me if I am wrong about this. According to what you have stated so far, God is one to be afraid of. God isn't eternal and all powerful because he doesn't use force to save someone from judgement. God is also vain, jealous, and selfish because someone doesn't love him. Am I correct so far? God is all powerful. However, he also fair and compassionate. Let me ask you this. In today's society, how is it viewed by others when someone is grabbed, pushed down onto his knees, and forced to obey another? It's called slavery. Correct? Do you want a slaver for a God? Something else. Why are you afraid of God? Are you afraid he'll snuff you out of existance with a thought? I have a fear of God, but not one of trembling and terror, but one of respect and reverence. God is a father. He's our Holy Father. Like any father, he loves his children and cares for them. I like how John phrased it in his first letter. "Beloved, how wonderous it is that 'WE' are called the 'Sons of God'." Paul tells us that God adopted us, that we can call him "Abba". Know what that means? It means "Daddy". The close and personal term a child calls his parent. We have full right to call him "Daddy". God is Love. He also merciful and gracious. Those he punishes have been given chance after chance after chance, time and time again through out their lives to come to love and obey God. Paul makes this abundantly clear in Romans chapter 1. There comes a time when God has no choice but to give them exactly what they asked for, separation from him. The thing is, that also includes being punished for continued disobedience. There is one factor that seems to be evading your thoughts. There is more going on than your supposed concept of God acting like a spoiled brat not getting his way. You also have Satan decieving and corrupting the thoughts and minds of people, spreading lies. In closing, Your contempt and disregard for God's word is the reason why you believe what you do. I strongly .. very very strongly .. recommend that you sit down, open your Bible, and start reading it. Look up these verses and passages that we are providing. Read them thuroughly, over and over. Pray to God before reading the Bible and afterwards. Pray for Knowledge, guidence, love, and forgiveness. Study God's word. That's why it's there. Jesus Loves you, Jesusman |
