well I see that you have hijacked the thread and got people off in different tangent, and sowed discord. This thread now seems to be about YOU and your questions. Start your own thread if you want answers or if you want to learn, then just lurk and learn.

To put things in perspective:

OP:  I see the hand of GOD in everything.
Reply #1:  So do I!
Reply #2:  Me too!
Reply #3:  You're not alone!
Reply #4:  Glory to God!
Me: I don't.
You:  Hijacker!  Sower of discord!

That about sum it up...?  :-)

back to YOU again...just what do you think to accomplish
here except to keep people from talking about anything but
YOU on this thread.

And yes, that’s about it. If you have a point to make then
go start your own thread about it. YOU have absolutely
derailed this thread.

I don’t go to a church; I have it all the time in my life. I am no religion expert.

I wish you could have the experience of the Spirit of God move through you and into situations of your life so you would know God is real. I wish you had it move through your relationships, work, mind and emotions to soothe you and move/direct you. I wish you could have it move through your body to heal you like has happened to me throughout my life.

He’s real, just like I know you are real even though I can’t see and touch you. I got a glimpse of your thoughts on a forum and I get a glimpse of His thoughts as well when I turn to Him and am attentive.

What is it that you do not see happening today as it pertains to Western culture, as stated in the passage that opened this thread? Did you read and understand the passage before you dismissed it? What about did you deem false?

Welcome to FR!

Things can get a little crazy. I’ve had a few sitimuations. I try to take everything with a grain of salt. It ain’t always ozzie and harriet.

There’s some good instructiones somewhere here on keepin’ it real.

I think a lot of people are stressed out a little. It’s been a tough decade for most everyone, IMHO. I think I’m down to two straws myself.

I always try to compose offline, take a big break if I need to “rethink” my answer, and it winds up getting my rough edges filed down a little smoother - I can only hope.

I try to avoid posters where it doesn’t go well. If things start soundin’ bad I just bail. Better to go silent than beserk, IMHO. Hope this helps.
