Chapter and Verse?

Peek into Manna (click here or in Manna in left column) I would like to find time for my favorite verses again. Thinking of typing select ones in a list to get them together, maybe even memorizing a few just to have a toe in the water in the chapter and verse league.  

Why?

Transcending the Transcendent 

Why do I believe in God? I believe because I enjoy it and I am engulfed in it. I am not encamped round about with doubts or anything else that includes the flesh, nor any kind of information nor knowledge, true or not true, nor anything valuable one of a kind whatsoever.

Even the overly educated stand with empty pockets in the final tally up. Too much knowledge promotes time consuming doubts. Also even valuable objects, simple as they are, are not owned. They are only momentarily controlled. 

Soon, as time continues to fool us all, life will be over getting better and right in the middle of it all, it is time to wear out and break down on an inevitable glide path into incinerated powder. All because the seen is temporal and the unseen is eternal? This is where power is seen because I believe for my part everything seen came out of the unseen.

Anything eternal is eternal for a reason.  

Why Things Circular are Orbital

Every Good Thing Comes Down

From the Father of Lights

 When I arrived in Greenland the sun no longer went up and down, but around and around. Are all things circular orbital in the foundation of things? Why would that be?

No Matter What

I strongly suspect there is a reason but I do not know it. And so what if I don't? It may matter but it doesn't for me. I believe what I believe and I do not know how and I do not know very deeply why. 

I do not care if it is true even. The truth may exceed anything that appears to be so, or not so. Magic now, facts later.

Why I believe updated

Proof Requires "Little Belief"

Everyone decides what proof is to them and whether or not it is satisfying to them. Just like all astral objects they all have different orbits and different views of everything, even if only slight differences.

Thereafter they are then attracted to other objects, like people are attracted each differently, to each other according to their different charisma mass.

So my conclusion is that we all have our own satisfaction conclusion proving everything. We are all like a famous sportsman who could be right, while appearing to be wrong depending on various perspectives. 

Charisma

So I believe all things can be proved or disproved according to each our own satisfactions. However, if anyone requires proof regarding their knowledge of God then they do not solely believe, which is the requirement of God. Belief is silent in the face of proof, is my personal conclusion.

The same stands for logic, or the views of others, which as child among adults influenced me for instance. On the side little belief is a close shadow to a wavering lack of belief. Next: I will describe what convinces me regarding every thought I understand about God.

God not merely scientifically based

Our Rules 

for God to Meet?

There probably are quite a few people who require facts, proof, scientific explanations, logic for the existence of God so that they can believe.

There are quite a few impressive people engaged in that effort and I wish them well.

It is an established agreed upon conclusion that God is not impressed with any of those expectations. Only one fact, faith, pleases the Holy Father. If I have scientific facts to convince me to believe then there is absolutely no need for faith. And only faith pleases Him. 

Jesus also is reported in the Bible to explain that if one wants to believe in God then God first will draw that person to Him, first.

Lastly, I believe we can only prove the existence of God each to our own satisfactions as I worked out logically in previous posts. Scratch that logically business, in case I am too close to being caught in my own figuratively tiny tangle. Still, I am going to believe no matter what. Next: Drawn to God?

How to pick a God

If I have decided not to be my own God because of my limited time on the scene and I realized I do not even know the questions, let alone the answers I am facing what would I want for my God? 

First of all I would find comfort if He was like me and had prior knowledge to benefit me and placed them in my heart so I could recognize them instantly by default. He would promise me this because He cannot lie and I would have to trust Him on it. 

He would promise me every good thing, especially love, so He could create all good things including hope for more than I can ever anticipate. I have found it helps to be somewhat more stupid rather than too smart.

We get what we got

No Matter What

If God does not draw someone to Him then that person is a non believer. If I understood Jesus correctly God is in charge. Jesus lost many followers after this remark. I do not have to understand it. 

God spoke everything into existence and it was so. What He said is on display and there it is. It is all in what anyone wants to believe and they will live with it forever.

Fruits of the Spirit Last Forever

At an older time when I was younger I had a yen for excitement and a sense of danger around every little corner. As I got older this got older as well and it was not only a growing wearisome event unfolding one after the other but it was out and out calling for one last screaming  kick out overdose event. 

But it never will come to my satisfaction I am extremely afraid, but even knowing I am not existing must be terrible beyond my comprehension. 

Eternity carries no time except the present and that setting I believe I will need peace, praise, and fruits of the spirit found in Galatians 5:22

 If anyone does not believe in God, then they will just have to be their own God.

God Saves Me from Judging Revenge

Only God Knows Just Judgement

Revenge belongs to the Lord but I never exactly realized why until I understood Jesus was in the mix all the way, more deeply than I ever anticipated. 

I am disconnected because God is the only judge, not me because I cannot judge lest I am judged myself. In the first instant because the only judge is the Lord Himself or second, His only begotten Son to whom He also gave that power to as His Son.

I am not only not the judge but I cannot bring judgement even to the extent of revenge. That is unless I want to follow Satan into being equal with God. This leaves me clear of experiencing judgement myself while God, as the Holy Spirit knows the heart in every matter does.

Therefore I am absolved of all temptations of Satan to experience the great continuing joys of the believer. This is the way I see it. I cannot assume the privileges of God since I am not God.

Next: God Protects Me Against Revenge

Not All Repetition May 

Stand Up Against Eternity 

I have said before and it seems appropriate here for me to say it again that I believe that I believe I will get what I believe when I am finally shed of all this seen world and pass into the unseen spirit world where all the greater power propels and holds the seen world together.

I would not be surprised if everyone does not get what they believe as well. But the question is more important than the answer. How long will we all be content within which we find ourselves? 

If God is existence and I do not believe that, then how will I find existing to be while at the same time knowing that I do not exist is in any way tolerable?

If I've plead ignorance, or that I never thought about it much, how long can I tolerate that? Repetition may become the brutal reward of, like a prison, solitary repetition.

Jesus was incarnated, that is once, but to be even reincarnated over and over, how can I be content with myself alone becoming a mind numbing repetition?

Some things may stand up very well however, that is to my mind, love, forgiveness and gratitude and other fruit of the spirit. 

This is my witness

God Sent Jesus

Believers are All One in the Spirit

At the core of my prayer effort, which is essentially becoming more familiar talking to and with, in the name of Jesus, to God, are my favorite meaningful and personally moving Bible verses. So I am back to the Bible in a way, but even so, God is not a Book, so the Book is not God.

Whatever is dominant in my attention is my God. Whatever comes first in my attention is my God. Everything Jesus has learned from God Jesus has made known for me, for my benefit, my safety and my well being.   John Chapter 17, the High Priestly Prayer
