Who dafuq are you to ask anything of God?  Just be thankful it hasn't yet smitten you for your insolence.

hahahahhaha  You guys are funny.

So if God doesn't want me, can I expect to roast on Lucifers fork for eternity?

Numbers 16:5
And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow the LORD will shew who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him.

Psalms 33:18
Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;

Psalms 25:10
All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

Psalms 78:56
Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his testimonies:i

James 4:4
Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
...
8  Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.



Q.
How does a man of flesh 'draw nigh', to a holy God ???

Its not rocket science.
[.....but it is difficult for any 'man of flesh' to do.]








1 Thessalonians 5:22
Abstain from all appearance of evil.

Leviticus 20:7
Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God.

Proverbs 15:9
The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.

Proverbs 17:15
He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.

Hosea 12:6
Therefore turn thou to thy God: keep mercy and judgment,....

Hebrews 12:14
Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

Proverbs 9:10
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

Proverbs 28:4
They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them.
5  Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things.





Again....
James 4:8
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you....

Perhaps  those that have the big 'life changing' experience of christianity needed their lifes to be changed ?

Perhaps God likes you as you are.

Quote:

.....The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.” Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Then a voice said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”........

1 Kings 19 :11-13

It either looks like you're demanding a personal visit from God or this is just another transparent challenge to his existence.

Good enough reason not to expect a visit from anyone, least of all God. And how is it that you are so sure that God isn't already involved in your life?

I dont even believe in god and think that is a dumb(too obviously trollish) question.

You have to come up with something a little more original. Keep it atleast within the framework of the believers.

You ask a question that is completely ignorant of the faith. Showing your ignorance to something shows you are not smart enough to ask the question.

In answer to your the words in the question "where is god", he is inside an egg shell.

John 3:16
Romans 3:23 onwards

No, not a trolling question - I save those for Yahoo! lol.  My interest is in spirituality (hence recently joining ozpol) and I'm interested in how some can be so certain of knowing God while others like myself spend a life time searching and not recognising God in our life.

Not specific to any one religion.  More just a sense of "God" in our lives.  How do some know that.  Why do others of us (according to many religions) spend eternity roasting on the fork of the evil one, when we have lived ordinary lives outside of a personal knowledge of God!  Even when we have craved that relationship.

For those of you who replied offering bible verses. Thanks - however my question remains.  Actually I currently attend a bible study run by the presbyterians in the town I live in.  They are all born again Christians. I'm still deciding. 

And I find answers via the bible hard to digest IF I don't first have the faith to believe it.  If that makes sense?  I'm no scholar and struggle with expression (which might be why I sound like I'm trolling) but I ask questions at a level that I'm searching at.

How (aside from bible quotes) do people know that God is in their life?  What do they sense or feel etc???  I'm not asking for a vision of God - just a knowledge beyond a book.

Prior to reading the bible did you sense God in your life?  Or was it a change based on faith only with no actual sense of God at a personal level?  I'm not sure how to word this.  Hopefully some of you will get what I am asking.

"That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:"




We, do not 'find' God.

It is God who reveals himself to us, because [or when] he wants to know us.

The question which you [and anyone else] have to ask is, 'why' [does he] ?

As i said in my post above; 'Its not rocket science.'

And God, is no ogre.







But seriously, if anyone wants to 'discover' God, i suggest that they 'make the first move' by choosing to read the bible.      [try starting with the book of Psalms and the book of Proverbs.]

It worked for me.

http://ih2.redbubble.net/image.13029315.4403/fig,royal_blue,mens,ffffff.jpg

If you are really seeking God - ask Him to come into your heart. Confess the Lord Jesus Christ. Let someone know (perhaps the church that you already mentioned) that you have made this commitment.

Then, sadly, stand by for the ridicule, jeering, sneering, etc that you will receive - as is already being seen here.

It does take guts to be a Believer. Easier not being one.

I trust that you take that all important step.

Quote:

6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. 7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? 12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

Don't be sorry, I understand that in life we all have to do things that annoy us , It doesn't bother me, I'm a realist

You on the other hand seem to be in fantasy land .....

......regards organised religion; If you believe that the Book of Revelation, is the "The Revelation of Jesus Christ," then in that book.... Jesus said... "...thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate." Revelation 2:6 Revelation 2:15 Nicolaitans??? What does that word, Nicolaitans, refer to ? 'Nicolaitan', refers to those who [Nico] 'rule over' or 'conquer', and [the laity] 'the people'. Jesus in Revelation, and, in the Gospels, said that he hated those hypocrites, who use the authority of 'religion' [turning religion into a 'beastly', false, worldly 'spirituality'], so as to rule over men. Almost every religion of man does this. Some religions [more than others] going to extreme lengths, to exert their authority over their adherents/devotees. Matthew 20:25 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. 26 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; 27 And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Popes??? 'Papa'? "....And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven." "...But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in."

A Christian ( pronunciation (help·info)) is a person who adheres to Christianity, an Abrahamic, monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as recorded in the Canonical gospels and the letters of the New Testament. "Christian" derives from the Koine Greek word Christ, a translation of the Biblical Hebrew term Messiah.[

How do you know what the life and teachings of Jesus are if not for what the church has told you it was? Did you have a vision?

If you rely on the churches preaching, how do you know which version is correct? the older more bloodthirsty version or the more modern version?

sorry, double post

FAITH!!

It's something that we all accept on a daily basis without thinking about it.

The train, the bus, the plane, the ferry that we catch...we have faith that it will reach our destination.

Faith...to believe things unseen! Who has ever seen electricity? Or the air that we breath? But it's there.

What did Jesus say about how to worship God ?

John 4:24
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.


Do 'Christians' need great church buildings ?     [....or, a 'great' church hierarchy, to worship God ?]

Matthew 6:5
And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6  But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

Why should i follow men, when instead, i can let God teach me ?

And why should i let a man ['of God'], or anyone else, interpret the bible for me ?

I can read and write, and i know which way is up.

And, i read the bible.

The bible moves me.

The bible changes my mind.

And that spirit that is inside me helps me to understand the words, that i read.

[Are the words in the bible, 'the words of God' ?
I believe it.
I believe that the words in the bible, are words, which were inspired by that being, that we know as God.]



Psalms 25:8
Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.
9  The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.
10  All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11  For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.
12  What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.
13  His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.
14  The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.


Psalms 19:7
The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
8  The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9  The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.



"....rejoicing the heart"

Almost all men in the world today choose to follow lawlessness [imo], as a means to prevail ['in the world'].

And, as a path that they are hoping will lead to the 'rejoicing of their heart'.

I choose to [imperfectly] seek God, my creator.

Quote:

Reading scripture is a form of spiritual invocation [i believe]. And imo, the words and thoughts expressed within scripture, express [to me] the mind of our God. And, reading those words and thoughts, exposes me to that spirit, which i [choose, and] want to be influenced by. i.e. The spirit of God. It is that simple.

the same bible that the church puts out? you mean that one? Why doesn't the vatican release old all the scriptures in it's possession but rather hides them away.

Jaqs wrote on Apr 12^th, 2013 at 3:35pm:

For those of you who replied offering bible verses. Thanks - however my question remains.  Actually I currently attend a bible study run by the presbyterians in the town I live in.  They are all born again Christians. I'm still deciding.  And I find answers via the bible hard to digest IF I don't first have the faith to believe it.  If that makes sense?  I'm no scholar and struggle with expression (which might be why I sound like I'm trolling) but I ask questions at a level that I'm searching at. How (aside from bible quotes) do people know that God is in their life?  What do they sense or feel etc???  I'm not asking for a vision of God - just a knowledge beyond a book. Prior to reading the bible did you sense God in your life?  Or was it a change based on faith only with no actual sense of God at a personal level?  I'm not sure how to word this.  Hopefully some of you will get what I am asking.

hi Jaqs,
yes, that makes sense.
As a boy I remember having an exam coming up at school. I Was probably about 7 years oldish and not a xtian.
I prayed for god to help me in exams. Since then I have been good at exams, not as good in real life.

The idea of 'studying' the bible is not my .......... experience of it.
'studying' it is pretty boring, and I get fed what the church wants me to learn.
if I just read it as a book, cover to cover, it's pretty different.

My path to xtianity is not common. I know God is in my life because I no longer fear death.
You should not have to 'make a decision' be become a xtain, IMHO.
I was sort of given few choices about it all.

All the best, don't sweat the small stuff.

I know God is in my life because I no longer fear death.

_____________

this is a true sign

and self acknowledgement of your divinity

and a release of that which no longer serves thee

which is fear.

you do not have to be religious for this to occur

however

religion is a program one may traverse until

............until the one in question

observes that which is innate and

within...yes the creator exists behind your

physical heart...the sacred heart,

with so very much love

For many years I have prayed and asked God to come into my life and I am still waiting.  Where is God?  Am I not one of His chosen? Your thoughts?

Perhaps it is time to shut up and be still and not pray - all that 'listen to me' might be blocking out the still, small voice.

If you want to be one of the chosen, you will be disappointed. God is not an X factor judge and does not dance with the stars.

Heaven Letters April-17-2013

God said:
What is loneliness but lack of knowledge? What is loneliness but lack of Self-Acquaintance? What is loneliness but wayward thinking, a tangent, a lack of Self-Awareness? In the case of loneliness, you have sent your own heart adrift. Like Baby Moses, you own dear heart has been cast adrift on the shore. The shore is not far from the sea, and yet to be cast from the shore of God is unfathomable. I wonder if loneliness has become fashionable in the world, something that has caught on.

What rift can have come between the Oneness of Us? What imaginary line has been drawn that you would exclude yourself from Me, as though distance is sensible and more likely than Oneness?

It is hard to imagine that you, a child of Mine, could turn your head from Me. With the Ocean right in sight of you, how could you turn your head from Me and your heart turned off?

You may think you spend a lifetime seeking Me and not finding Me. I cannot and do not look away. I look right here at you. You may think I don't understand you or that I don't care about you when you don't see. I see. I see you. I keep you right in front of Me. You are never out of sight or mind. I call you to Me at every moment, day and night, season after season. You are on My mind, and you are in My heart. In a million ways, I say, "I am here." And you don't seem to hear Me. You want Me to come up to you.

I have come right up to you. I extend Myself. I do everything to get your attention, and, yet, you hear Me not. You see Me not. I dance before you. You dance away and ask where I have gone. How did you acquire this sense of absence? Why would you hold this assumed distance up before Us like a towel? I have never left your side. My hand has been forever holding yours. We have an engagement, you and I. We are forever One and never not One. Beloveds, your mind wandered. You set your sights on far away places that do not exist. I exist. Heaven exists. The Kingdom of God lies within you. I am forever ensconced in your heart. How could your heart possibly be the last to know?

Even when the Prodigal Son stayed away from Me, His Father, he knew where I was. He knew where he could return to, and he returned. Yet you may say I do not exist, and there is nowhere for you to go. You call out:

"Where are You, God? Where have You gone without me? Why have You left me? Why would You leave me forlorn?"

Why would you bereave yourself and drop your awareness of Me? Bereaving a loss of My Presence is not exactly the best use of your life. It is not a novel you want to write. You have spent long enough writing it. You have spent too long writing this dark fantasy. Instead of deepening your support of awayness from God, come back into the Light of God. Come back to Me. Come right up to Me and say:

"God, here I am. I am here. I came back. I had a dream that you were away. Now I know this was a dream I dreamt. I dreamed I covered my eyes, and now I have opened them again to You. I have come back to You, God. I am here for You. What would You ask me to do for You?"

:)

God said:
Even in the indelicacies of life that are handed to you, there is perfection. There is perfection of a moment. The scene, as it might be played in a stage play, is presented amazingly. The bad guys, the good guys, the in-between, all are played to a T. What delivery! What performance! What a script! The sun is in the right place, and the shades and shadows are perfect too. Lights! Camera! Action! This scene could not have been performed better. It is a one-time-only event.

It may be a tragic scene or a comedy of errors or an erroneous arrest or a lovely romance, or a lovely romance gone bad that you find yourself in. This may have been a drama you would prefer not to see before you. You prefer not to be in this drama. You are perhaps presented in a light you don't like. You may be the star, and, yet, you may well prefer not to be on this stage at all. It is all wrong for you, and yet you play your part perfectly, and you finish the whole scene. You are the consummate actor. You are actor award material. Your performance is stellar. No one can play this part better than you or even as well as you. No one can repeat the perfection of this ad-libbed scene nearly as well as you. No one can tell that you are acting. You are a natural for it.

Even if you were to replay this scene, you couldn't have done it so immaculately as you did. There are no run-through's for you. No rehearsals. No reading the script ahead of time. You are just thrown on the set, and you take your cues from what is going on around you and the lines that the other actors on stage with you speak.

Perhaps you are on trial for your life. Suddenly, you are in criminal court, your case being tried. You don't know what you're doing there or how you happen to be here. You are thrown in. Whether you committed the act you are accused of or not, it doesn't matter. You may be innocent, and you play your part to the hilt, and are found guilty. You may be guilty, play your part to the hilt, and are found innocent.

It can be you are in court on a traffic violation. If you are the respondent, this is a big case for you. If you are the judge, it is a minor case, one of many lined up. In either case, you are both eager for it to be finished. There may be no fine involved or a big fine imposed. In any case, to you, there is also the principle of the thing.

Life as it appears before you, premeditated or out of the blue, is in bright color right before you. There is no cessation of scenes.

Whether it makes good sense to you or no sense at all, life is a drama perfectly cast and perfectly played out. Nothing can equal life's drama. Life is the Greatest Show on Earth, and you star in it without cease. Even when you are asleep, you are in an interesting scene. Bit player or star, you excel. You may not like the part, yet you excelled in it. You are a master in the part you play. You are great.

It seems as if many scenes are thrust upon you. Somehow you are cast in the part, even when it seems like you have no choice, no choice at all, no choice whatsoever, and yet it is you who shows up for this drama in your life. You may think you are no more than an innocent bystander. Nevertheless, you show up. You are standing in the audition line. It certainly feels like you have been chosen, and yet you choose your place in line. You may not remember applying for this part of yours, and, yet, you are quite a performer. Somehow, here you are on stage, seemingly unable to get a day off. Even so, you have a say in what role you will play tomorrow.

The manuscript of survival – part 301

As you have already ascertained, the waves come and go, and sometimes, it is as if your feet are being knocked out under you. But at other times, you will feel yourself as lifted aloft, and you will feel how the power of the waves surges underneath you, carrying you higher and longer than ever before. For such is the nature of these waves. They are not here to drown you, but to lift you even closer to that oh so elusive goal that you have searched for for such a long time. And what is this goal, we may ask, and we think you have all started to find your true answer to just that. For what on the outset started out for many as a quest for that perfect world, has now turned inwards. For you have all started to see the truth that paradise is not something that comes from the outside, it is indeed something that comes from within. And as soon as you discover this, much will start to fall into place. For then, you can finally start to build your future on the most solid base of them all, namely the one that you always carry with you.

For eons, mankind has set his store on other, more flimsy constructions. And these constructions have been many indeed, and they have gone by the name of family or ancestry, government or even religion. But all of these, no matter how closely tied they are to each and every one of you, are outside constructions, and nothing to build your own future on. We do not talk about a complete disregard for your fellow men here, nothing could be further from the truth. No, what we refer to, is the fact that for a very long time, makind has searched outside himself for some sort of salvation. And in many cases, it will have seemed as if he found it, only to discover that this salvation was a fickle one at best. For no matter how solid a ground you seem to stand on, it is nothing but quicksand if you do not have the rock-solid foundation you truly need inside. For then, and only then, can you start to build everything else around you.

So that is what this process is all about, the tearing down of everything old and misconstructed, and the rebuilding of the most solid foundation of them all. Namely that fact that you are indeed sovereign beings, complete and perfect, and ready to start to go out in the world as such. And when you do, you will start to interact with all of these other, new rock-solid beings that surround you, in the shape of your fellow men and women. And together, you will build the world of your dreams. But again, that dream must start at home as it were, with the complete dismantling of anything old and substandard that may be present inside, for then, to put the good pieces back together and build it into this rock-solid and immortal being you are all starting to emerge as. For what we have talked about today is not news to any of you, for you are not novices in this. For you have been in this construction business for a very long time now, and now, the time has come to survey this magnificent structure you are about to complete. It can be difficult at times in midst of all of the seeming chaos to see just how powerful a structure this really is, and just as it is on a regular construction site, without surveying the blueprint, it can be very difficult to get a clear image of what is under way in this confusing mass of busy workers. But we have the blueprints, dear ones, and we can see just how faithful you all are in following them, and so we can see clearly just how close you are to putting that final capstone into place, and declare this, the work of re-constructing yourselves, as finished.

It may not be all of the comfort you need at times like this, when tempers fly and irritation can become high in this, the final flurry of finishing touches before the unveiling. But trust us when we say that even if you might feel a bit stressed out now and then, and you feel as distant from the finished product as ever, know that this is not the case. For you are not lagging behind, not in any way, and you will all make the deadline you have set for yourselves for this process. So fret not, even if you at times may feel like your whole structure is tethering on the brink of collapse. For your building is indeed build on solid ground this time, not on the loose and treacherous sands of yesteryear, and as such, it can weather anything that maybe waiting ahead. We do not say this to imply any sort of cataclysmic event, we just say this in order to remind you that you are build of sturdy stuff now, and so come rain or shine, storm or quiet, you will be standing tall and proud and rightly so. For what you have done, is to build something that will last and last, and when you get to know this new you better, you will also see the bright future that you have in store. Not just as brilliant individuals, but as this whole beautiful conglomerate of magnificent structures, all linked together in a way that will make everything else pale in comparison. For this is no fata morgana, this is the true paradise you are building. For as you struggle and push to get those final pieces in place in your own personal setup, you are also simultaneously doing the same to this whole planet. For this is what dreams are made of. Not mere fiction, but the facts that you have already started to make it come true by making yourselves become true. The true humans, based on their true conviction that what you have become, will never be torn down again, and as such,

paradise is already rising from the ashes of the old. And you are the ones making this happen, by doing the hard work of rebuilding your own personal being from the ground up. And now, you can all feel dizzy at times as you have started to raise this new you to such lofty heights, you are already towering above the old renamnts of the one you used to be. There is no need to look down now, dear ones, just keep your focus up, and you will have a better chance to finish this whole process off without being too overwhelmed by vertigo.

For remember, you are not yet used to moving in these let us call them elevated spheres, and as such, you will feel a little bit insecure and unsteady on your feet. So just stay focused on where you are going, and do not spend too much time mulling about where you actually came from. That way, your heart will follow your eyes, and you will find yourself striving towards your own completion in a way that will help you to attain it faster than if you spend too much time looking back over your shoulder. For you are not going back, you are simply to keep moving ahead, and that is what you do each and every day, even at the times where you feel more like you are holding on for dear life, on the brink of being tossed back down onto the ground again. But trust us when we say that this is not the case, it is simply a signal that you have not yet gotten used to the purer air at this height. So just take your time and go slow whenever you feel the need to do so. As we said, there is no risk that you will miss your stipulated time of completion. So again we say that all is well, and even if your whole structure seems to be swaying considerably at times, it is more solid than you think and it can withstand it all. For you are made of the same stuff as the stars, indeed you are all stars, and you shine brightly even in the brightest of daylight. Not just today, but forever.

Good one!!

God said:
It is better that you do not make Me your fall guy. It's not good for you that you affix blame to Me. It's not helpful to anyone.

You may like to hold Me responsible for all your woes. Responsibility is not blame. Blame no one, yet it is for you to take responsibility. Responsibility is not a dead-end. There is always another card for you to play.

It is not for you to fluff off your responsibility. The past is the past. Right now is your responsibility. You may be at a fork in a road that you don't like. It is you who has a decision to make. Stop harking back to the past. Do not play the game of "How Could You, God?"

I allow your freedom of choice. If you are at a casino, you don't want the house to hold all the cards. You want to have some odds in your favor. You want to have a choice. Do you really think that I make all the choices for you? You can't have free choice and hold Me responsible at the same time.

It's true. I take responsibility for you, and yet I don't make all the moves. You do have a say. You are not exactly an idle player. You may draw certain cards to you. You may drop a card. You may make a wrong play. You are not altogether an emperor of your life, and yet you are a key player.

Watch the attitude you give off. Life is not exactly tit for tat. Nevertheless, if you desire peace, you can't keep crying, "Foul." Better to know that your life is yours. Life is not all locked in. Yes, you may have great days and feel blessed. You may have rough days, and feel accursed. Do you really think I operate in that kind of mode, that I am your Friend one day and not the next? I do not set out to get you, give you a hard time, yet, of course, hard times are something you go through. You can't take all credit for the good times, nor can you toss off all responsibility for the hard times. I do not go around looking for hardships for you.

Yet when you have a hardship, what are you going to do about it now? Don't fluff off responsibility on Me. Don't say, "God, what did You do that for? God, how could You do that to me? Get on Your horse, God, and make this right. Give me the job I want. Let me pass this test. Reform my son or daughter."

Make no doubt about it. You play a significant part in your life and your family's life. You play a significant part in all lives. You play a part in all the galaxies, and you play a part in your life.

You are much more than a spectator in your life. You are a participant. You are a sharer. What timbre are you sending out? What are you attracting to yourself? It seems impossible that you would ever draw ills to yourself, for you are innocent and you would never bring onto yourself what life may have brought you. If a ball is thrown at you, you catch it. If the ball is in your court, it's yours to take care of.

No one is to blame, yet everyone shoulders responsibility. Forget about the whole trip of blame. Blame doesn't take you anywhere. Better to take responsibility. You also have a responsibility to stop carping. It does you and your situation no good, no good at all. Even when you might win an argument, you are left in the same situation. Be gracious to life, and be gracious to Me.

If the ball is in your court, it's yours to take care of. No one is to blame, yet everyone shoulders responsibility. Forget about the whole trip of blame. Blame doesn't take you anywhere. Better to take responsibility. You also have a responsibility to stop carping. It does you and your situation no good, no good at all. Even when you might win an argument, you are left in the same situation. Be gracious to life, and be gracious to Me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oKPMoAqbDk

You may be confusing the immorality and Barbarism that underpins the Old Testament or Torah with Christian enlightenment.

List the Christian morals and ethics described in the Gospels that you find repulsive or reject.

Describe how anything written in the Gospels can lead to self loathing in a person.

[ all questions are worth 25 marks each ]

Chimp,
I remember - & they are still around -
the Bible Bashers on street corners yelling out & pointing to people saying

you're all sinners

repent now for the end is nigh

They want to use guilt to recruit new members to their club
& charge them money for it.

God said:
What I want to talk about is whatever you are open to today. Some days you are more open than other days. Of course, you are doing the best you can. The best you can means as far as you can see at this time.

On the days and accumulations of woe, you may be open to listening the most of all, or, on such days, your mind may be firmly closed. You don't want to hear about anything woeful that you and your way of thinking may have contributed to. You may feel that you just can't be contrite anymore.

Yet some day, perhaps in retrospect, your eyes will open, and you will see how you may well have contributed in some way. You are not to blame, yet you blame yourself. There is no blame, dear ones, unless you call being human as blame. There is responsibility, however.

Playing your role here as human being alive on Earth, you are in a learning place. If you knew everything and made happiness-producing decisions at every turn, why would you be here?

Now, at the same time as I say this, I am not saying that you are here only for lessons. Perhaps, We can sum up all lessons as one. You are here to learn joy even in the confines of the relative world. You're not here for punishment. You are being given a worldwide opportunity to learn how to learn joy on the job. This is your basic assignment -- to learn joy, to discover it at every corner. To do this, you have to let go of the idea of your being perfect. And, yet, you are perfect, beloveds, perfectly you.

You are also here to help others. I can say with certainty that you are here to help others and to help others grow. They can grow from your wisdom, and they can grow from your foolishness as well. Everyone is learning from you. They are learning their way around the world just as you are, and they see what you do and what you don't do, and they learn, and they grow from their observation of you. What a teacher you are! By design or by default, everyone learns from you. In joy or in sorrow, they learn from you.

Set your shoulders back now, and seeming others will learn Greatness of Being from you.

Greatness isn't sacrifice, beloveds. Not at all. Learn from those who fill themselves with love and naturalness. This is what you are learning and everyone is learning. This is the living Truth. This is all you are learning, to give and return love as the most natural thing in the world. You are coming to this state where anything less than love is a stranger to you, this state where love feels right and nothing else does. With love -- this is the way to live. Love is your nourishment, and love is your expression. This I call Greatness.

Of course, you desire honest love based on itself and not based mainly on an idea of good conduct. Love is the more you want to be. It is love you are coming to. The freedom of love within your life is growing. The same way as a flower grows to the Sun and the leaves grows in chlorophyll, so do you grow to the Sun of Love. You grow and glow in the love within you that I, the Father of Love, shine on you. And, so, you grow closer to Me. The closer you grow to Me in your heart for no reason but to be closer to Me Who Is Love Full-Blown, the closer you grow to your Self.

Life in the world heralds you to your own Being, and, here on Earth, you catch up to your very Self.

God said:
Wake up, little ones. The day you've been waiting for is here. All that is missing is your waking up to it. The sun is out, only you are still a little sleepyhead.

Rub your eyes, and you will see a new world before you, yours for the asking. That is, you did ask for it, and now it is here. Your desires for the Universe are awaiting you. Now you wake up, and now you enjoy the fruits of your life and work.

You have not been just a body hanging out on Earth. You have been a soul imaging Me, reflecting Me, acting as My advocate, My sponsor, My love. Yes, you have. You have been responding to My pleas for the raising of the world. Only you could raise it. It needed you. The new world called to you, and you answered. Even though at the time, you didn't know who you really are, you answered. You came to the fore. You see, all My desires are fulfilled. You fulfill them.

You think it is I Who fulfills your desires. You are the fulfiller. I do My utmost. I can do nothing else but My utmost. My utmost is Love, and, so, you My love, took on service to Me, and you have been victorious in blessing the Earth and all those within it and beyond it.

You are the savior of My Will and Desire. You who are My desire came into existence for the upliftment of the world. You raised Me on High by the virtue of Our love. We invested in each other, and this is how dreams come true. This is how blessings come. Never forget that you are a blessing to Me, and that you serve more than Me. You serve the Universe. You serve your neighbor. You serve in the name of love, and so We are love, one immense Vast unconquerable love, love immersed in love and Being and goodness and mercy. Despite what your individuality may appear to you, you are Love Incarnate and you are on Earth to bless the entire Unity of Life here or there and everywhere, even when space does not exist, even when time does not exist. You are the blessing We have all been waiting for. You have hastened to My side. You bowed down to Me in your heart, and you, even if unbeknownst to you, asked:

"Father, how can I serve You? What can I do for You? Tell me what I can do to fulfill Your Will, not mine?"

I boomed the Word, "Love."

You said: "If I only knew how."

I replied: "By living in the world."

You said: "That's it?"

I said, "Yes, that's it. By your grace, love and peace will overtake the whole wide world. Because of you, My Will is done."

Then you are speechless. Your heart asks: "Thy Will is done? Where, O God, is Thy Will done? Where is it? I still see a heartbroken world."

I answer you silently: "When you open your eyes, you will see. And as you see, the whole world sees its own majesty. You will see with your heart, beloved. Within your desire is the crowning of your desire which is Mine, the self-same desire. This is Our Unity. This day all that We yearned for has come to pass. All is done, and now you begin to live the joy I made you for. Brotherhood has arrived. That is all that has been missing. Now you enjoy the fruits of a job well done. You spread this joy before all. Now what is remaining for you is to enjoy the feast that you say I put before you, yet it was you who prepared the feast, and in your name, I thank you."

http://lightworkers.org/spiritual-channeling-ascended-masters-channel?page=1

The culture of the modern world is largely based on commercialism, materialism and many forms of separatism and as a result your precious soul becomes weak from a lack of spiritual nourishment.  Much of the pace we witness is rushed, and through the busyness the challenge then becomes making hospitable time for your spiritual growth and development. Your soul dear ones requires sustenance that is achieved through your conscious actions that will promote a stronger spiritual side of your never-ending journey.

Do not fear love dear ones, allow it to flow like water from a river and believe that within you holds the power to all that you are to become. Every time you give of yourself, you are sharing that flow of love that comes from the pureness of your heart. It is too easy to become a swamp or bogged down like a marsh. Stop accumulating heavy thoughts and negative impressions of yourself and others – let all pass as it is the way to your freedom and releasing your Self into higher states of awareness. Allow the blessings of life flow through you and touch each soul you meet and greet. When you choose to keep the blessings of life to yourself you endanger your Self to becoming emotionally detached and stuck along your path. The freshness of your journey is found within the depth of your heart that is filled with unconditional love.

We see so many dear souls focusing on the negative aspects of their lives or they look for something so large that it cannot be missed by anyone when the smallest of good that is right before their eyes holds the greatest blessing. Blessings from God don’t always come big and loud, sometimes they come in a silent whisper and are slight in size – all the blessings before you, you have so many; are filled with divine love from God dear ones.

Remember, even when you are moving through troubled times, God is with you and He is offering His hand to help raise you up if you shall fall. Look up and feel the warmth of His brilliant smile and embrace this gracious gift as through Him peace is found. Learn to make use of positive words and brings those words into your thought forms and create positive affirmations. Through positive words dear ones, you become able to encourage yourself and others. When you see how effective you are at uplifting others you will also recognize your own Self becoming that much stronger.

Self loathing? You may be that way inclined, but a true believer understands that he/she is a sinner and needs salvation. We don't loathe as we are enlightened!!

Heavenletter #4534 A Twice-Told Tale, April 24, 2013
Gloria Wendroff

http://www.heavenletters.org/a-twice-told-tale.html

God said:
Always, without fail, I speak to each of you. That you may not hear Me whispering to you is another story. That is a twice-told tale, and it is handed down from generation to generation. To some there is nothing new that can be known. Yet there is the new, and the new will be placed before those who believe and those who do not just the same. Favor the new. You might as well.

It may well be that someone refutes Me. It may well be that those who do not hear Me have the mindset that it is not possible to hear, and, in that case, they cannot hear. Whereas belief isn't everything by a long shot, nevertheless, not believing you can hear Me while you are a mortal being on Earth may ensure that you don't. It well may, yet, just the same, you can hear Me even over your idea that you cannot. There is no cannot in Heaven. Think of all the matters that were once disbelieved in, and, yet, now are well ensconced in the world. You know, the Earth is flat, man cannot fly, no one can ever break the swimming record, and then someone did, and more and more.

Once seen, what was once disbelieved, even scoffed at, becomes believed in and beloved. All the people nod their heads now. The dial is set, and the whole world follows. Seeing is believing is not novel, yet it stays so. It has been said more than once. Once you have seen for yourself, it makes sense to go along with the tide. And for those who cannot let go of old beliefs, they are adamant and won't or can't budge, so great is attachment to the past. It's as if some see letting go as a sign of letting go too easily. Indeed, it would take force for some to let go of their fierce devotion to a stance from yesteryear.

Sometimes the past is a palliative. Sometimes when you believe in something and don't know how to let it go, something will occur that shakes you loose, and then you become a discoverer and then you have lifted your head, yet new may also be replaced down the road.

How do you know when you are being rigid, and how do you know when you are letting down your barriers too easily as if you are mindlessly following the crowd, as if you have no character of your own? How do you know when you are capitulating or when you are embracing a new arena of thought? How do you know anything? You don't know what tomorrow will bring. Nobody does. What can you predict? Not even the weather, so it seems.

And, yet, you are not meant to close your eyes. You are meant to see. Be in accord with Me now. Look to see Me. Come closer to Me even when you don't know what anything means. You are something. You ARE. And you are for something, not for nothing.

Know this, beloveds. The best is yet to come. That is inevitably the Truth. Yes, always We are getting closer to the Truth. Whether eagerly or with fierce resistance, you will change some of your beliefs. Why not? Beliefs are beliefs. You are a believer in something. A man can believe he is healed, and he is healed. A man can believe that he cannot be healed, and he cannot. And then, thrown into the mix are those who believe they are healed and are not yet, and those who do not believe, and they are healed.

Life on Earth is a mix of many things. What do you believe that you must exclude from your life? And what do you believe you can keep in? And what is so hard about changing where you happen to be right now?

Old man, how is it that you hear these things? - Young man, how is it that you do not?

God said:
When something comes to you, it comes easily. This is what I want to say:

You can struggle and struggle, work very hard, and, yet, when your efforts bear fruit, they arrive easily just the same way as beautiful fruit on the vine fulfills its purpose. One day the fruit is green. Then all of a sudden, the fruit is at its peak of ripeness. Just so, all the forces of nature seem to gather together to give you gifts in life. When success comes, it falls into place. When success comes, it is almost as if you couldn't stop it if you tried. Have you not received bounties in life before you could say Rumpelstiltskin?

Sometimes, not always, when you desire something deeply, avidly, perhaps even desperately, the fulfillment of your desire may elude you. It is as if your holding on tight prevents you from fulfilling your desire. It may be that you hold on so tightly that your desire cannot catch its breath.

I am not saying that you are to be lackadaisical or that you are wise to care less what comes to you or does not. I believe in desire. I believe in it strongly. What I do not endorse is tightening attachment to your desires, as if they are essential to your well-being. I am saying that letting go, relaxing, and resting in Me can work wonders. I will go so far as to say that sometimes, all you do and all the effort you exert are not what turn the tide. Sometimes, it seems that success comes to you without all that much participation. Sometimes rewards seem to come of themselves. It is like you receive manna from Heaven. You have a windfall. You stand there agog at the good fortune that has visited you.

You certainly feel lucky. And sometimes, from a larger perspective, you may even be lucky not to reap the rewards you may have so desired.

Do not consider Me rude, beloveds, when I tell you that the case is that you know little or nothing! Life reveals a lot to you, and you learn considerably, and, still, what do you know? What can you foretell?

And yet you can foretell that great good fortune is on its way to you. You don't have to make yourself a hard taskmaster. It makes more sense to thank than to demand. It makes more sense to be agreeable to life as it presents itself to you than to object. If life is the King, you are the gracious servant. Despite what you may think, life is patient. Life is patient with you. You are the one who is impatient with life. You would like to call the tunes that life is to dance to whereas you are to follow life's biddings, not the other way around.

When life tells you to go here or there, even when you can't possibly understand why, graciously go here or there as life indicates. You may not see how or why, beloveds, yet life is holding a blessing for you, many blessings for you. The blessings may come under the umbrella of challenges. Challenges are like the salt of the ocean. The salt of the ocean holds lots more gifts than you could have ever imagined. Beloveds, even death that you look amiss at holds greater blessings than you can see from your vantage on Earth. Everything in life holds greater treasures than you can imagine. Imagine the greatest blessings you can think of, and you haven't thought of enough.

Well written master Light,

In the above picture we see what a city & sky would look like at night
if it wasn't for all the light pollution.
So often we miss out on the true beauty & subtlety of nature around us.

To view the Milky Way from a dark site is a magic experience.

Get away from city lights and on a moonless night the stars are magnificent. Thanks to a great Creator.

many blessings

unto all beings

God said:
If you have ever been serene, you can be serene again. Serene is a place within you. Peace, love, happiness all exist in this secret place of My heart within you. Now, you want to open this special place within and make it available for all, and, therefore, out in the open. Of course, you can have your privacy, yet your love and sense of all good things shine to all right out in the open wherever you may be, or, believe you are.

As a representative of My Kingdom, naturally, you are cordial. That does not mean that you can't be to yourself when this is your desire.

So often life in the world is a push and tug. You want to be introspective, and the world seems to knock on your door and wants you to come to a party. Or, conversely, you want to go out on the town, and the world, your world, those nearby you, caution you to learn to like your own company.

The world of human beings, as you may have known it, is not always easy to satisfy. The world, at large, as you know it, the people in your world, may not want you to be as you are but often rather want you to be what they want you to be, as if it were for others to set the beat to your drum.

You rightly belong to yourself. You can be a good citizen and belong to yourself. Who has more right to you than you? Of course, there is the matter of Me, God, Who would set you free from the bonds of the world. Truly, there is nothing for you to escape from or to, for the whole world is yours and you are entitled to privacy or company as is your preference at a given moment.

You do not always have to look over your shoulder and scratch your head wondering who is at your door and what do they want from you now.

It is enough, beloveds, that you know what I want. I want you here on even keel in the center of My heart. You are like an arrow of love that pierces My heart. You pierce My heart with joy. Yes, pierce My heart again and again so that you can know the importance you hold for Me and know firmly what it is to be in the Heart of God. There is nothing else like it. What else possibly stands on its own two feet so well as does My heart emboldened in yours?

We discover love together as it dissolves into the Oneness of One and holds all the cards. Oneness is, and it is Ours, safe and sound within the One of Us as We love without owning or assessing, just being in a moment like freckles on Eternity.

We know nothing else but this Eternity that opens everything to itself, and what do We find in this unfindable Eternity but Our hearts beating as One, beating as if to beat the band, beating, pulsing like hearts on a holiday picnic packed with love, packed with love because there is nothing but love in the whole worldless world, love whipped up like a recipe, disappearing before Our very eyes of love as We whirl in the Silence of Love, love before it took semblance of all the imaginary scenes of love in disguise, love misdiagnosed, love hidden away in a sepulcher somewhere called something else. Yet, even so, love is death-defying and can only be what it is no matter how it may be bent out of shape, for it can only return to its natural state which is love in My heart for all time and all over, love. Love is the only dance in town.

Heavenletter #4537 What Are Thoughts without Language?, April 27, 2013
Gloria Wendroff
http://www.heavenletters.org/what-are...

God said:
What do you see when you think you see a glimpse of spirit, something so fair passing your cheek that you wonder if you saw anything at all? Regardless, beloveds, you saw a thought, or you thought a thought. What is seeing but a thought? Your eye saw something, and your mind pounced on what you saw and turned it into something with a name. Words are names. Thoughts are names for whatever we happen to be thinking about and attribute these names to. Thoughts are for something. Life in the world is pursued by thoughts. Thoughts certainly may seem to muddy up the waters and complicate rather than simplify.

How does it happen that you know the meaning of so many words? How does a young child already know so much? How does language become natural to the lips, tongue, and cheek of someone in one land and another person in another land finds a different formation natural to him? How does thinking come about, and what is it anyway? Beautiful to one may be mumbo-jumbo to another.

Perhaps it is voice like a bellows that pumps vibrations out to the ears, and language is no more than a familiar lilt or an exercise on a mandolin. Language is a wonderful invention. Even so, might communication be simpler, easier, more peaceful without the entanglement of language? You might be more relaxed without the intellect of language.

And yet I gave you language to explore with. With language, you are like a hunter with bow and arrow. The bow is like a thought, and you pull back on it and then you let it go. You shoot the arrow of thought in order to catch something, perhaps to catch another thought, perhaps to understand the angles of active thoughts you have. Perhaps without language, My children are closer to their hearts and, therefore, Truth.

You may have wondered whether you think thoughts or whether thoughts take over you. How can you have so many thoughts in a day? They must come from somewhere. You may think that thoughts are like birds that fly around somewhere in the stratosphere and land on you. Thoughts seem to come on you from every direction. Sometimes you think you think your thoughts, that you discover them, that you put them together, and sometimes you think thoughts are like entwined bushes with thorns that you stumble into. How can one person, you, for instance, think so many thoughts in one day, and another day your mind is sort of blank and you are looking for the thought to fill your mind.

And where do thoughts go when you've finished with them, or they've finished with you?

Whether thoughts come from you or whether thoughts are like bites from mosquito, mostly, you are inundated with them. Your thoughts are rapid-fire thoughts. There seem to be no screens to keep thoughts out. Thoughts have free range and a field day with you. Most often, you have enough thoughts to build fires with. Thoughts eventually go on their way or make their escape, and still you are responsible for them.

You are like the old woman in a shoe who had so many children, she didn't know what to do. Thoughts are your children. You are responsible for them. After all, they do issue from you. You want to learn to rein them in and not let them go all over the place and get in the way of other people. Thoughts are such a bother, and yet you cannot disown them. One way or another, they are your thoughts. You thought them or borrowed them or spelled them. Therefore, you are responsible for them.

You might try becoming an atheist just to piss Him off.

That'll earn His respect. You should hear from Him soon after that. 

Demand an apology for ignoring you.  8-)

Always, when you know what you don't want, that's when the rocket of desire is born of what you do want. That is the fruit of your experience. Now pluck it and savor it and enjoy it. Visualize it, and find the feeling place of it. And live happily ever after, once you get the hang of this.

You are each a master of what you choose to pay attention to
May 1, 2013 by John Smallman

Well, as I have told you before, humanity is on a roll!  The awakening process for you all is proceeding very rapidly indeed, and the loving energy that you Light-bearers and wayshowers are demonstrating and sharing is proving extremely effective in helping this process along.  Keep it up, because you are doing great work — work that no one else can do — and that is why you chose to be here at this time.  You are to awaken to a great honoring of your most noble and compassionate roles in humanity’s unavoidable and inevitable awakening.  Just keep releasing all that “stuff” that keeps coming up for you, seemingly inexplicably.  Only some of it is your own, much more of it is of the collective who are still too deeply asleep to release it on their own, and their gratitude to you will astound you.

As you allow yourselves to acknowledge that change of an essential nature is taking place, then so will you be able to become increasingly aware of it.  It has not been hidden or kept secret; it is just that, to put it bluntly, you have been captivated by the bad news, the disasters and catastrophes prominently broadcast by the news media and have tended to ask, “How could God allow this to happen?”

God does not allow or disallow; He just offers a helping hand so that you can exit the illusory quagmire that has seemingly been holding you captive and involved as observers and fixers in all the unloving activities that are still going on across the world.  Take His hand.

Focus on Love – sharing It, demonstrating It, engaging with It – by looking for and seeing the Christ in everyone, for no one is without the Christ energy: it has just remained unacknowledged and therefore has not been called upon for help nearly often enough.  Too much time and energy has been spent judging, blaming, and condemning, instead of looking for the Love that is securely anchored in every earthborn living soul.  Focusing on Love has enormous power. If you could see and understand what occurs when you do just this – nothing else, just this – your amazement would overwhelm you, and you would be unable to understand why you were not doing just this in every moment of your existence.  It is what your Father does!  And you are reflections of Him, inseparable aspects of Him, eternally one with Him.

I cannot emphasize strongly enough the immense power of Love.  There is nothing stronger; it is as simple as that.  Large numbers of you have, at various times, “fallen in love,” and when this has happened to you you have been overwhelmed with joy and happiness, and with the way it seems to empower you.  You feel not only that nothing is impossible but also very intensely that the love you are feeling must be visible to everyone with whom you come in contact.  What you experience as embodied humans when that occurs is but the most infinitesimal sense of what actually awaits you when you awaken into Reality and into the Love in which your Father embraces you eternally.

Love, as you have been frequently informed, is the power, the energy, and the intelligence of creation itself.  Everything that exists was created in Love, by Love for the infinite pleasure that it would then enjoy, basking in and forever savoring the divine embrace in which all is encompassed.  So, when you want to achieve something, when you intend to achieve something, the way to do so is to engage with Love.  You are all children of Love; Love is your eternal nature, and it is by engaging with It that all that you could possibly desire not only becomes possible, but actually occurs.

By constantly behaving lovingly, compassionately, and generously you are bring humanity to awakening, although at present many of you are plagued with doubts about whether this is really possible.  There is no need for these doubts. Release them . . . because they only distract you by drawing you off your paths and into all those fearful “what if?” thoughts that can so effectively bring you to a standstill of indecision and confusion.

As humans you have become so conditioned to believe that life is an endless succession of strife-driven struggles that that is what you mostly experience. When you engage with hope and with faith in the power of Love, of God, unexpected, almost unbelievable, changes happen which relieve that strife.  But mostly you do so only momentarily before your conditioning returns you to your old beliefs, and the power and enthusiasm for the wonders of life that was building within you seems to drain away.  You become once more weighed down by the daily grind that is the life that so many of you are experiencing.

There is an amusing song that many of you may have heard: “Always look on the bright side of life,” which is obviously meant as a rather tongue-in-cheek suggestion.  Nevertheless, you are each a master of what you choose to pay attention to: you can choose to be an optimist or a pessimist.  Moods, which, like the weather, can be seen as good or bad, will flow through your lives and pass on.  But when you are tired it is very easy to cling to and travel with the bad ones — the ones that drag you along with them by worrying or depressing you.

With the new energies swirling abundantly all around you it is now much easier for you to become aware that you have become caught up in a bad mood, and then acknowledge it and release it to flow freely on its way.  You do have to make a positive decision or choice to do so, but when you do, the sense of blackness or gloom will lift quite rapidly.  So become aware of being aware of moods in which you are apparently enmeshed and choose to let them go.  As you do so, remind yourselves that you are divine beings of infinite power, and then intend very determinedly to look on and see “the bright side of life.”  It is always there for you, and it is far more enjoyable than doubting and worrying.  Go for it, look on the bright side!  After all, that is what your Father is offering you in every moment of your existence; you only have to choose to accept it.

Your loving brother, Jesus.

Great question to ask any religious person and no logical answers will come because its all crap!

Is it real? Physicists propose method to determine if the universe is a simulation
Oct 12, 2012 by Bob Yirka

(Phys.org)—A common theme of science fiction movies and books is the idea that we're all living in a simulated universe—that nothing is actually real. This is no trivial pursuit: some of the greatest minds in history, from Plato, to Descartes, have pondered the possibility. Though, none were able to offer proof that such an idea is even possible. Now, a team of physicists working at the University of Bonn have come up with a possible means for providing us with the evidence we are looking for; namely, a measurable way to show that our universe is indeed simulated. They have written a paper describing their idea and have uploaded it to the preprint server arXiv.

The team's idea is based on work being done by other scientists who are actively engaged in trying to create simulations of our universe, at least as we understand it. Thus far, such work has shown that to create a simulation of reality, there has to be a three dimensional framework to represent real world objects and processes. With computerized simulations, it's necessary to create a lattice to account for the distances between virtual objects and to simulate the progression of time. The German team suggests such a lattice could be created based on quantum chromodynamics—theories that describe the nuclear forces that bind subatomic particles.
To find evidence that we exist in a simulated world would mean discovering the existence of an underlying lattice construct by finding its end points or edges. In a simulated universe a lattice would, by its nature, impose a limit on the amount of energy that could be represented by energy particles. This means that if our universe is indeed simulated, there ought to be a means of finding that limit. In the observable universe there is a way to measure the energy of quantum particles and to calculate their cutoff point as energy is dispersed due to interactions with microwaves and it could be calculated using current technology. Calculating the cutoff, the researchers suggest, could give credence to the idea that the universe is actually a simulation. Of course, any conclusions resulting from such work would be limited by the possibility that everything we think we understand about quantum chromodynamics, or simulations for that matter, could be flawed.

Go About Your Father’s Business
Heavenletter #4548 Published on: May 8, 2013
God said:
No more sniffling, beloveds. Be not a sniffler in life. Beat your chest if you must, but don’t sniffle. Don’t whine, don’t feel sorry for yourself or anyone. Sniffling and whining and feeling sorry for yourself are not recommended activities. Who wants to hear about them anyway? It’s better that you get along in life. It’s better that you get up from feeling sorry for yourself. This is absolutely no way to spend your life. Certainly you didn’t think it was. Life doesn’t offer you opportunity in order for you to stew in your own juice. Life has other things lined up for you.

Consider life for one moment as the sport of bowling. There are times when you knock down all tenpins. There are times you don’t. Have fun bowling. Have fun when you get a good score. Have fun when you don’t get a good score. Have a good time in life regardless of what may happen in it. The score card you are to keep is a winning attitude. You can always win with how you feel. By and large, how you feel is what you make of something. Make losses and a bad day, and that’s what you have. Make losses like salt you throw over your shoulder, and what do you have but a new slate?

When you exercise your rights to be wimpy and weepy in life, this is called Poor Me. Do you want to go there? Do you want looks of condolences from others in order to stay feeling sorry for yourself? Better to accept no invitations. Don’t go to any Poor Me parties, yours or others’. Stay away from such congregating across the board. Poor Me parties are not in your best interest. They aren’t in anyone’s best interest. They are not agents of welfare. Poor me parties are as much petty as they are pity. Go to places where you don’t get support for how sorry you feel for yourself or anyone. Go places where you get support for good cheer.

Don’t paste feeling sorry on yourself or anyone. What is part of life is part of life. You may not be able to escape all that you would like to escape from, nor is it your job to run away. Whatever the perceived trouble is, it is yours to face. Who would ever face what is called tragedy unless he had to? When what you call the loss of a loved one falls to your lot, cry your tears, weep your tears, and then get up. Put yourself to good use as soon as possible. You are not here on Earth to spend time crying for yourself.

You may be sure that I do not suggest pretending that you are happy when you are bereft. I am suggesting that you get up after you have a good cry. A good cry is not to be frowned on. But how long are you going to stay there strung out on misery? Even if you are in misery, there is no question about it, you can still get up. You can still offer something to someone else. This is something worthwhile for you to get up for. Bless someone else. Offer something to someone else. Instead of wringing your hands, or holding a Kleenex, put your misery aside. Get up from it. The purpose of your life is decidedly not to agonize over either little or big things.

Self-pity may be what a bed of nails is. In any case, don’t lie down on it. As soon as you realize you’re lying on a bed of nails, get up. Go about your Father’s business.

"GOD". Like Abu and Falah, has left fortunately!

He is in your mind. You have to create him in your mind just like people with multi personality disorders create their invisible friends.

See its easy, for an example, my sister who is now around 50 years of age, she back stabbed, lied, likes to control others and is lazy fat pig, she is now a practicing "LIFE COACH"  ;D. One can be and create anything

is this how she used to be...?

how is she now?
