A way for my family to reassure itself that I haven't lost my mind yet. I emphasize the yet.

What Do You Think of That?

This is a question for the readers. Do you find you have to disagree w/ almost everything your mind says? You know all them Pentecostal told me, when I pray I need to also listen to God. I don't buy it. God is not the voice in my head, and now I feel a whole lot better. That voice is out to kill me. It makes a whole lot more sense that God be on the outside. It is another pentecostal lie that says that Jesus lives in your heart. The Word is in our heart, which is Christ in a way, in the way of his mindset, not his actual being. Their is no person on the inside you should be listening to. Due to my previous history of drug use, a gate has been opened and not a ot of good things got through. I sincerely believe that drugs open the mind to the spiritual world, but both sides get in. If you don't believe me, go find some truly burnt out hippies. They have some pretty strange ideas and some satranger behavior. Where do you think that influence comes from? I watched a program on the CNN Book Channel or whatever its called. The man that was speaking had just had a book published called "The God Delusion". He blames the idea of God for a lot of things. I watched his program and find myself disappointed. All his arguments were at best trite. I realized that in myself I'm looking for something, some solid argument, so I could be, "Aha God, yeah he showed you." I don't want to believe in God. I don't want to believe this is the Truth. But nothing else even comes close. In this I realized that God is terrible. This was so refreshing! I don't meant the terrible that is more closely related to awful. I mean the terrible that means great w/ a touch of exciting terror and awe. The kind of terrible that is so jealous and wild that He will destroy your life, your world, just to force you to your knees, to force you to His Breast. A big and determined lover that pursues harder than any Jason or Freddy Krueger, and for some reason that makes me happy.

Yes, I can't distinguish my thoughts from Satan's from Gods, so then i don't talk to God for a long time, but then I miss Him talking to me so I listen and rebuke Satan and then I have that amazing intimate time. As far as Jesus living or not living in your heart I think it is one of those word issues. In a lot of cultures Jesus lives in your Liver, maybe in out post-modern culture Jesus lives in our Brain. It is just to day Jesus becomes the core of who we are.

the first part of what your comment says, emily, just makes me more confused. like a lot more. It seems to be contradictory. First you say that you can't distinguish your thoughts and then all of the sudden you do again, after "rebuking" satan. so is rebuking the key?

I don't know for sure, but it helps, I think. Mostly I just try to stick to "hearing" God right out of the Bible, or at least I should. sorry, don't mean to be confusing. I guess I mean I can't seem to just give up on seeking God.
