Well, I'd appreciate it if you refrain from telling me what I can and cannot do. You post a comment on an open forum thread, guess what, I can freely answer it and give my opinions, which is what you are doing. God is a personal God and I know him personally, but that doesn't mean you OR I can confect our own doctrines about him. He has already told us all we need to know about him by his Divinely-inspired Holy Scriptures. Jesus is God in the flesh and everything he taught that is needful for us to know, is in the Bible. His thoughts ARE higher than our thoughts and His ways above our ways - they are "past finding out".
I'd appreciate it if people would stop trying to "sell" God as the equivalent of a magic genie ready to grant our every wish and desire. Short changing God is when anyone presumes to know better than Him about what he does and doesn't do in each individual life. Suffering IS part of His plan and healing is NOT always His best - deal with it!
Wow! Do you think you are God? I said I'd appreciate it if you don't speak to me on what 'you think' about God on what HE does/doesn't do.
His thoughts ARE higher than our thoughts and His ways above our ways
Exactly. Didn't I just tell YOU that in my previous post about what 'you think' that you are responding to?
if people would stop trying to "sell" God as the equivalent of a magic genie
Still reducing Him to some worldly level, again, I see. He is NO fairy godmother or Santa Claus.
Short changing God is when anyone presumes to know better than Him about what he does and doesn't do in each individual life.
Now who would be doing that? Suffering IS part of His plan and healing is NOT always His best - deal with it!
I, as a child of God, don't have to deal with suffering as I believe HIM and I am healed and blessed. So I don't have to 'deal' what you are dishing out by your own thoughts and wishful ways.
