A Question for Christians on God
Quote:I've got a question. So was I. I'm not that knowledgeable on Catholic, I was born in the Baptist take on it. For some I have had the honor of speaking with, there was darkness, and some wish it would have been that simple. I don't know, other than what they tell me on that side. I know their change is real. There is a Light that is different from what can be explained in words, a perfect light. I think sometimes all religions put some man into God, but that is wrong. The KJV is close, but then again, close only counts in horsehoes and handgrenedes. The world belongs to the devil, and so we are behind enemy lines, just my take. I relate much of what I know to everyday in my life, and this is one such instance. We have twins born to a goat, one is blind. They all cross the fence at the creek, when it's down, into my cousins field. Now it may follw it's mother, or possibly another goat into the field. Everyday, my youngest daughter and I spend about 30 minutes catching it to put back into our field, where no dogs or cayotes will cross due to the Llamas. One day, we may miss the baby, but everyday we look. Once it is Mark's field, it is out of our safety zone, and falls prey to his Pitbulls and Cayotes, both have attacked and killed his cows, and threatened people. We challenge them ocassionally, and so far we've won. Now if should this baby goat go back into the field in the dark, we will go after it if it cries out, but mostly, it is of it's own free will. As it grows into adulthood, we will still help all we can, and if it cries out we will defend it, but free will plays a part in this. Positive energy never dies, it becomes transformed. If you saw what comes next, you'd be unhappy here, but we're not given that choice. Who knows, if I was to pick a group of people to be with, I'd pick the best. When children die, I assume that they go to Heaven, or at least to be with God. Death is a curse for some, but a blessing for many others. I look at this earth as a proving ground, money doesn't count, who looks smarter doesn't count, who aquires the most don't count, looks doesn't count, is the heart and soul that does. We choose allegiance to one side or the other, either man, or God. The 144,000, I do not expect to be included in, I would be happy to just be where I was over 3 years ago. I never read a lot of the Bible, and still don't, but yes, one should be able to view the world and know there is a God. Many here seem to attemt a quote from Indian Tribes, so here is one that is real. A man asked a cheif one day why all TeePees faced the east, of which the cheif replied, "To thank the Great Spirit for a good day." The man was puzzled and laughed. "But how do you know it will be a good day." The chief looked back and said, "If you can not find good in the day, the fault is not in the day. The fault is not in the Great Spirit. The fault is in you." They didn't have a Bible. |
