So may I ask you, how does a Noahide find the Love of GOD in the 7 Noahide Laws?
Also are you saying GOD is about Law for human beings first before anything else?
You said you still are learning after 20 years....Is GOD’s intention to make it that difficult for human beings to have a relationship with him?
Again I don’t mean to frustrate you, just understand what you are saying....
What is so hard about finding the Love of G-d in His Laws for us?
Also are you saying GOD is about Law for human beings first before anything else?
I told you, Tara: the Torah, with all its rules and regulations, was written before the universe was created. That means before there was anybody to commit a sin in the first place. You're not getting this, are you?
How about if I remind you that G-d gave Adam the commandment not to eat of the fruit of the tree before he ever sinned (indeed, without a law to transgress Adam could have never sinned at all). The Hebrew text of Genesis says that G-d put Adam in the garden "to work it" (with positive commandments) and "to guard it" (with negative commandments).
You said you still are learning after 20 years....Is GOD’s intention to make it that difficult for human beings to have a relationship with him?
Now I don't know what in the sam hill you're talking about. I'd have a relationship with G-d if I were (G-d forbid) comatose. He's my Creator! That's my relationship with G-d! It's also yours, and everyone and everything else's relationship! And why are you so prejudiced against learning? I suppose you knew everything you'd ever need to know the instant you were "born again" and have never studied the Bible a single time since then? I just don't get you.
Again I don’t mean to frustrate you, just understand what you are saying....
Tara . . . to you G-d is the protagonist of a big dualistic Tolienesque drama, duking it out with an "evil gxd" for the possession of humanity. For me there is no "evil gxd" and G-d's possession of humanity is absolute and unquestioned. To you G-d is so busy being the "good guy" in the drama that He doesn't have time to be G-d. To me G-d is simply G-d. And it is this that is so liberating.
