What good is it to try to prove that God exists? You blind shepherds, instead, make them see clearly so that they will seek Him themselves. Show them the world without God, and if they reject you, by doing this, they prove that they are evil. If they were not, they would have recognized the truth.They know that a stone doesn't ask the one who stumbles, "Did it hurt?", nor do the waters save you from drowning out of compassion. How can there be justice without judgment, and judgment without the one who judges? How can the gift be sacred without the altar that makes it sacred? Likewise, how can there be value if it has nothing to stand on? Your desires are your gods, and you choose to be a slave to them. Know this: in your own world, your life is utterly worthless, but not so in mine. Indeed, we both share in one and the same life, and we are both accountable to the one and the same God. He is the eternal life, the one and only true God, revealed through Christ.Come to me, all you who are in great distress; take pasture in my words. To anyone who finds my words true, I am like a gentle shepherd, but to anyone who is not of the truth, I am like a scorpion that stings. This is why it is said, "Anyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; anyone on whom it falls will be crushed." If the truth torments you, do not think that this will make me stop. Instead, I will seek to become the dungeon master as to torment you day and night. I have made the truth known to you, yet you choose the world where you can indulge in your depraved desires, while there is no one to feed the starving child, no one to heal the sick and comfort the one in pain, and no one to bring about justice. This is the world you are asking for when you say, "There is no God!"I can testify: He is there, and soon the starving will be fed, the sick healed, and the one in pain comforted. Let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream.
How is it that you people still don't understand that I am not doing what I am doing because I want to? I am doing what I have to do. How many times do I need to tell you that I know that He is there? The desires of this world will soon be taken away from you; therefore, invest in what is eternal. You have no excuse before God because if you believe that there is no God, you must also believe there is no purpose, and if there is no purpose, what prevents you from hoping that God is there? Nothing is preventing you from doing this besides the self and its desires; therefore, you have no excuse.
>>25598266It's God's job after you evangelize to open eyes. Your personal talents are not relevant.
I believe there is a God. I also believe that He didn't write us a book, and is also completely indifferent about our fate. Now take this crap to >>>/his/ already. It has nothing to do with literature.
>>25598266The graphic highlights one of my current major metaphysical concerns. What possible purpose could all that chaff that meets second death have? Is it necessary to ricochet the highest possible percentage of bits back into the narrow road? Or perhaps create the widest possible variety that ultimately find their way back? Secondarily there's a weirdly ugly asymmetry in everything created not meeting the same fate. Some is eternal (discontinuous only at one end) while the rest comes from eternal nothingness and returns to eternal nothingness? The ball surrounds itself with something which has no reality, but somehow manages to absorb some of it and grow? It can't become more perfect, it began perfect. It can't undergo change,immutability is one of its core traits. I just don't think this can be right.
God is a superintelligent alien.https://youtube.com/watch?v=NbhQhmgM5c4
