I'm born a catholic and raised through catholic school, though I only went to church when I had to as a student and later on in years for weddings and funerals. In fact, I despise the catholic church more and more as time passes (we all know why). But there is something about what is going on that makes me feel that I need to reconcile with God. Not as a catholic, but as a person who truly believes God is why we are what we are. Why we are here, at this point in time. Sadly, I'm starting to believe that religions segregate us and keep us away from the real relationship that we should have with God. I know in my heart of hearts that if I drop to my knees, the answer will be there. At the same time, I'm scared to learn just how far away I've drifted from the truth! We all deserve a relationship with our true creator, and HE deserves the same. I'm ready to establish, re-establish, and even exhaust my effort to do so. I hope many of you are ready to do the same! We deserve it! HE deserves it!

You are free to do that ..just like you can get a jab...I am just pointing out the con.
There is one flaw in all your arguments. No I haven't read what your pitching, nor will I. Instead I offer my own testimony.
The year was 2016. I was at the weakest point in my life. I had 6 kids to care for, I had lost all semblance of who I thought I was or where I was going. I spent my life Agnostic... the belief I really avoided though was Christ. I didn't belong in churches.
One Sunday morning my sister asked me to go to church. She said the pastors message felt like I needed to hear it. My sister knows I do not do church, that day I did. No hesitation, my words "at this point I'll try anything"
We arrived to worship music and a crowded room, I felt something I have never felt... a presence if you will. It saw me.... all of me. I cried like a newborn through the music. Hiding my face out of embarrassment, this was not me.
The topic was the approach that God uses to touch us. An hour I sat feeling as though noone in that room existed, this pastors words were meant for me and even he did not know. I did.
At the end the pastor asked everyone to bow there head in prayer. I fought soooooooo hard not to. I faltered, my head started falling.... I surrendered.
I was lifted out of my body that night. I could see everyone and everything at once... I had no burden, no weight and most of all no fear.
As I came back to my physical self I had a major panic attack. Collapsed outside and went to the Er, told the doc. "Tell me I had a heart attack please" doc said "why on earth do you want that news"
I told him I wasn't ready for the other explanation..... I didn't have a heart attack!!!
Jesus is the Son of God, to know Him you must surrender your burden and invite him in... then and only then will your proof be provided.
I pray you experience that... peace to you.
That was a beautiful testimony. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for reading it. Is the first time I have publicly written it. Felt it was something I needed to do.
I don't see the connection between your emotions and facts.
I am on here exposing the largest con..not pitching anything
Really.. you mention this book the naked Bible in just about every response. Your stating opinions of fact not fact. I'm giving you an account of my own personal experience.
What you choose to believe is yours my friend.
"If I am the wisest man in the world, it is because I know one thing, that is that I know nothing" - Socrates
Have a blessed day. Wasn't trying to attack. Just share my testimony with you.
No I am not...there is evidence for what I say..
yours is a subjective experience...something experienced through deep emotions.
are you aware the Buddhists talk of tulkas...beings brought into this reality through thought?
Out of body experiences in that state are very common
Did you know the Buddhists talk of tulpas? It's an object or being summoned through the power of thought....it happened to me..so I know although it felt very real it was my mind that did it
People talk of demons..the Egyptian book of the dead warn of the demons appearing after death..but to remember they are projections from the mind and will disappear once you remember...
I am not choosing to believe..that's what you are doing..I am stating the Bible was a written record from members of Jacobs tribe of what happened after the elohim invaded..the fallen angels...
...bereshit...in the beginning...ancient Hebrew had no word for god and olam later transformed by wicked people to say eternity..again there is no word for eternity...it was sold to get followers...
And as you say you won't look at evidence..you prefer your fantasy...and that's ok..as you said believe what you want..projecting what you are doing on to me
I prefer no beliefs clouding my mind thanks..and as you have already read previous comments of mine as you state ..the truth is not want you want to buy as you said..
