How would you respond to this argument: "Since science cannot prove or disprove the existence of God, then it's possible he exists"?

Prove love exists.

It’s hard to do scientifically as it is the wrong tool to do so.

God is love.

There is a way to prove G-d’s existence. Unfortunately it’s an argument most chrstians have never heard so they keep going back to Greco-Roman philosophy.

my lack of spelliing i will attest to these darn phone keyboards not made for American wide fingers, and/or the sensor not picking up when using that rubber tipped stick.

‘magick’ is spelled that way to distance itself from those stage illusionists.

anything else that i can illuminate for you?

Jesus said to you in John 14, “ The things that I do and even more, you too shall do in my name.”

Which, like as "Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets" (Amos 3:7) is employed by pseudo prophets to affirm every spurious message they imagine, so likewise John 14:12 is used by gurus as you to justify their gnosis garbage, esoterical effluence and ectoplasmic etc. experiences, and advertise such which deceives simple hearts and vulnerable souls who swallow such.

But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. (2 Corinthians 11:3)

Which as regards you, includes

defining "God as any level of consciousness that exists above the level I am currently at."

* Postmortem "semester break" "lower level of Heaven the recycling level for souls that are growing but have not grown to transcend self or the physical body" to when "our soul actually expands to where the entire earth exists within you"
* "raising your consciousness frequency through prayer and meditation to levels where you perceive directly with your consciousness beyond your physical body," with "actually raising your brain wave frequency above 40 Hz" being "the lifted or raised up Jesus spoke of," and "With enough meditation and prayer, anyone can make this journey to Heaven while still in your physical body,"
* and with "liquid swirling golden Light around the woman" (who did not eat for 3 weeks), as ... "the Holy Spirit came upon her in a lower strength of Light and cleansed her soul for 3 weeks before she was pure enough to be in the Light of Heaven."
* while "Merely touching a sin stored many feet from a person’s physical body in their soul often knocks the person off their feet,"
* and with "the human soul being a dipolar field like the earth.(masculine and feminine). Thus the earth changes are causing souls to be unshackled, This is the cause of all the gender identity issues and high divorce rate in the recent years,"

Which, as said, is too close to such cultists as Swedenborg and the Roy Masters. Edgar Casey, etc. And the demonic psychic healers who actually did heal, including Arigo: Brazil's Surgeon of the Rusty Knife.

But Paul would neither have necromancy nor demonic help in preaching the gospel:

And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation. And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour. (Acts 16:16-18)
And being reproved, in a damnable attempt to justify yourself, you resort to compelling Scripture to support you under the premise of being an elite esoterical enlightened one (thus Scripture must mean whatever you imagine), versus being soundly Scriptural.

And thereby you further manifest yourself as being a false teacher, who,

"preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, " "another spirit," "another gospel!" (2 Corinthians 11:3-4) For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. (2 Corinthians 11:13-14)

Jesus is my Savior, not because He died for me, but because He was born in the flesh, and lowered Himself to teach us how to follow Him. (This is why 1 John 4:2 is a very accurate scripture) I would much sooner have a lifeguard that teaches me to swim rather than waiting until I am drowning to save me. Jesus was/is a rabbi, a teacher.

There we have it most plainly manifest that you indeed have another Jesus, another spirit and another gospel. 1 John 4:2 condemns Gnostic types who denied the literal, manifest incarnation of Christ, while your lifeguard gnosis guru who teaches you salvation thru esoterical escapes is also "another Jesus" - an alterchristus - anti-christ as John states - whom Paul and the apostles did not teach.

For Scripture plainly and abundantly teaches that Jesus the Christ was the divine (by nature) Son of God, who was born and came not just to teach and minister - which He did - (Acts 10:38) but to die, to give His life as a ransom (Mark 10:45) the promised scapegoat and perfect atonement, (Lev. 16; Mich, 5:2 Is. 7:14; 9:6; 53:1-12; Rm. 8:32; 1 Pt. 2:24) who rose from the dead as mankind's present savior and future judge. (1. Pt. 3:18-22) And who will yet reign for a1,000 years in a physical kingdom (Matthew 25:34; Revelation 20:2-7) till He hath put all His enemies under His feet. (1 Corinthians 15:25)

Thereby the Lord Jesus paid the price the forgiveness of our sin with His own sinless shed blood, (Isaiah 53:4–11; Luke 24:47; Luke 24:47; Col. 1:14 thus enabling being spiritually born (as a child of God: John 3:3-7; 7:37, 38; 14:24,25; 16:7) when one believes on Him with penitent faith. (Acts 15:7-9; Eph. 1:13; Titus 3:5).

And which effectual heart-purifying, regenerating faith, (Acts 10:43-47; 15:7-9) is that which is imputed for righteousness (Romans 4:5) and results in following the Lord, (Jn. 10:27, 28; Romans 8:14) which is to formally begin with being baptized (Acts 2:38-47; 8:12,36,37)

By which faith the believer is completely forgiven of al sins (Colossians 2:13) being washed, sanctified, and justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God, (1 Corinthians 6:11)and "accepted in the Beloved" and positionally seated with Him in Heaven, Ephesians 1:6; 2:6; cf. Phil. 3:21) and translated into His spiritual kingdom, (Colossians 1:13, 14; cf. John 18:36) and baptized by the Spirit of Christ into His body, 1Cor. 12:2) the one true church (Colossians 1:18) to which He is married. (Ephesians 5:23-32)

And those who die in that obedient persevering faith will go to be forever with Him at death or His return.(Phil 1:23; 2Cor. 5:8 [“we”]; Heb, 12:22,23; 1Cor. 15:51ff'; 1Thess. 4:14, 17) “the resurrection of life.”(Jn. 5:29) In contrast to those who were never born of the Spirit or who terminally fall away. (Gal. 5:1-4; Heb. 3:12; 10:25-39)

This is what the devout Jews - the first Christians and gentiles - were taught, versus mere a teacher, much less your demonic esoterical excursions.

We already exist within Him but are blind and cannot see Him. Only by following His teachings can your soul grow to a level where you too shall perceive and experience Him.

Rather, one is spiritually DEAD until regenerated as per the above, "dead in sins, (Ephesians 2:5) but experience Him via effectual Biblical heart-purifying, regenerating faith - as shown in Scripture, and then is to grow in the knowledge of God, as Scripture reveals and enables. And thereby such are to recognize a false christ and gospel as your proffer!

Some day soon I will begin sharing publically and demonstrating what I speak of.

In which case I think FR management should be interested in what you are using his servers for.

Step back and look at Christianity. It is excellent teaching for the human soul to grow.

Rather, Step back and study the Bible systematically, by excellent teaching for the human soul actually becomes what it never was or could become thru simply obtaining knowledge, of growing greater consciousness, but that of actually becoming a spiritual child of God thru the gospel you reject via your alterchristus/anti-christ and false gospel.

Please read Jesus’s explanation of the parable of the tares in the wheat at the end of Matthew 13 when the Disciples asked for help to understand the parable. Humans are souls that are planted here in the darkness of the earth to sprout and grow. They are a crop of consciousness that begins as an individual seed and then grows to be One with God. They exist within God already, but are unaware of it. God’s Higher Consciousness is a purifying fire for all things unclean. Obstacles to Love cannot exist in the Higher levels of consciousness.
More heresy 2.0. As show, Scripture clearly teaches that before regeneration by faith in the gospel of Scripture, then souls were "dead in trespasses and sins," (Ephesians 2:1) "without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world," (Ephesians 2:12) "But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ....Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; (Ephesians 2:13, 19)

You are either IN or OUT, and will forever be so when you die. No second chances, and not by "the logical masculine and the emotional feminine consciousness" merging, and and becoming "balanced in their masculine and feminine and bound with Love," with consciousness shifting to "the gamma frequency.. of the mystics" whereby "you become aware that you really do exist in Jesus and Jesus exists in you."

This is the “raising up” that many call rapture. There are many, many levels.

Absurd, a delusion from Hell.

While again, there is growth in grace for the once-dead, but gospel-faith regenerated believer, thank God, of greater revelation of God, and His grace and love (Ephesians 3:14-19; Colossians 1:9-12), and the yearning of mature disciples is to be in character and practice (thru surrender and flesh-mortifying obedience to the Lord by the Spirit (Rn. 8:4,14; Col. 3:1..), yet it a transformative even - not a process - the believer is to long for and look forward to, (Philippians 3:12; 1 John 3:2) that of the "first resurrection," (Revelation 20:5) “the resurrection of life, ” (Jn. 5:29a) "of the just." (Luke 14:14) of believers (1Jn. 3:2; Rm. 8:23; 1Co 15:53, 54; 2Co. 2-4)

"For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.' (Philippians 3:20-21)
At which time is the judgment seat of Christ And which is the only suffering for believers after this life, which does not begin at death, but awaits the Lord's return, (1 Corinthians 4:5; 2 Timothy. 4:1, 8; Revelation 11:18; Matthew 25:31-46; 1 Peter 1:7; 5:4) and is the suffering of the loss of rewards (and the Lord's displeasure!) due to the manner of material one built the church with. But which one is saved despite the loss of such, not because of. (1 Corinthians 3:8ff) I always reserve the right to be wrong,

While you have certainly exercised that right in being so WRONG.

I was doing the same work as Newton and Weiss before they wrote their books. I chose to not publish as that attaches you to an identity and hinders further growth.

What are you saying here? Reincarnation? Astral travel?

Can you elaborate a little?

Prove love exists. It’s hard to do scientifically as it is the wrong tool to do so. God is love.

But science can document certain acts and characteristics which evidence altruism, compassion, affection, and indicate positive concern for the welfare of someone or something, and which testifies to said objects of such having value, and thus a name for such is warranted.

However, science can document certain systems of objects and characteristics which evidence power, intelligence as cause, and indicate purpose, which testifies to said objects having value, but no name is allowed for such evident Cause.

Wow. What I have only read of or heard about, you know through the hard coin of experience, both personally and as a clinician. Three questions.

(1) Is Newton's account of "life between lives" accurate?

(2) How do you see the field developing in the coming years?

(3) What do you mean by "about to get real interesting?"
