Even to say you don't believe in God requires you to have faith in that belief.
It requires faith because there is no evidence to disprove the existence of God, so a man has to have faith to NOT believe what he had no proof of. So it comes down to what I said, it is faith because it does not require proof.

Not meaningless, it is no longer needed when you are certain.

He does not give up HIS spot HE was only holding it for you. From then on he will not interfer unless you ask him. But he will stand there always to shed light to help you decide what is real and what needs another look.



I have found my reason
Have you found your will?

NOW we are getting to the MEAT of the matter. The meaning of words.

When I speak of your will.

Your will is what you use to manifest the result of your (Faith=belief=studies)
(what you teach you will learn)

Let me give you an example of how your will and Gods WILL for you are the same.

You will yourself to be happy
you will yourself to be successful
you will yourself to be smart
you will yourself to be generous

I could go on and on.

BUT when you give over your will to your ego, you have lost control of the alter of the body to an entity of your own creation.

God cannot interfer with this insanity for he has given you free will to create and will not destroy what you have made. you are his son.

Some people pray for GOD to give them death, but HE cannot give what is not of HIM.

So you are saying that we will ourselves to die, to be happy, to be smart, etc?

We try to, but becuase our ego gets in the way, mostly we are unsuccessful.

When we believe our will is BACKED UP by GODS WILL, how can we lose?
(maybe a few uillusions along the way but those are nothinganyway)

WHEN we KNOW our will and GODS WILL are combined there is nothing that can stand against us.

God is the SOPURCE of all creation and unlimited and this too is HIS WILL for all of US provided by HIS SON as a freely given gift(the holy spirit0

if I recieve this gift and give it to someone else I have not lost it and both have gained.

"Inspired Solutions" (those made under the light of objectivity of the HOLY SPIRIT) never have any losers. Everybody wins.

If GOD sent Christ to pay our way, and by doing so HE got to defeat death, and all I got to do is believe it ,to recieve CHRISTS INHERITANCE??????

Hmmmm, let me see now ALL the wreck and ruin, mistakes in judgement, hatred and greivances I hold, and all the rather unpleasant creations I have let my ego create would be washed away and I would get to be HAPPY????

What do I have to lose to gain heaven???? JUST my ILLUSIONS???

HOW DO I SIGN UP?

and that little angel tells me

YOU have to TEACH it to LEARN it.

I knew there was a catch 22:-)

If sin was just an illusion why would it require Christ's death?
