You want to see god? Look in a mirror.
Haven't you guys noticed this is the exact same guy, making the exact same type of post, under multiple user names every couple months? He's just an idiot trying to drop a bomb and walk away while everybody gets into a big argument.
Yeah, I know: He's a troll.Quote:

This man perception... on his part, proved fatal.
An obstical that I believe we all face is the perception that God seems iindifferent in the affairs of man. Tragedies happen where we may ask... Why did God let this happen! Is he an indifferent Piece of s**t?
An example comes to mind where a young girl was sent out by her dad to the corner store to buy him some smokes ( store clerk knew the girl and father).
She attempted to cross the busy street on her bike... struck by a truck going too fast and was killed instantly.
It's natural to wonder where God was in the middle of this whole tragic, grievous, situation.
Why did he not interfere from the begining, concerning her old man?
I believe that (call them perceptions on my part, Is fine):
The lord spoke to the old mans heart to get him to realize that sending her out, would not be wise,
I can also see The Lord speak to the young girls heart also to please- please be careful, this road is very busy, maybe you should go back home and tell dad your afraid. Don't try to cross this street.... NO NO DON'T GO!
I can also see the lord causing the truck driver uneasiness with the speed he is driving, causing the girl to misjudge the time before he got to the intersection.
I know this to be a sensitive subject, I have come to respect and care for many who interact in these theads.
I just um... also grieve over the loss of relationship that both people and God could enjoy, but false perceptions of God... stand in the way.
Worship the Father in Spirit and truth. John:4
Not trying to preach. My point is ~ He is spirit.
I would love to hear his voice as well as some prophets I have observed.
My problem is i often do not heed.
Thank you for your time, Brad

I'd answer god or call back... provided god was on the fair and flexible plan, or some similar plan, promotional in nature, in no way davine, or that I penalized for excess calling minutes.Quote:

I've spent countless hours researching the web trying to find proof of god, and should I ever find that proof I'll be one extremely happy fellow as there's nothing I'd like to find out more. But thus far I've read every argument out there, and oh lord all mighty have I read a lot, and logically they have thus far all fallen short.Quote:
