Active Atheist?
April 7, 2017 at 8:22 am
No not really. Hi all a tiny introduction, I am a married man from Australia, I have a wife and a son. I am a Christian. I have come here to try to draw people back to faith in God.
I have had many experiences with God, but one thing that motivated me this week was: I attempted to lead people to Jesus, I tried to do a thing called prophecy, which (some people can do) seemed to go haywire, I attempted it on some poor atheist, and no matter what I tried nothing seemed to work. However after that God started to drop things in my mind which were true.
A man approached me coming down the path, a voice told me he was a Muslim, and a Sunni Muslim. He began to walk past me and me not sure whether what I heard was true, asked him are you a Muslim, he said "yes", I said a "Sunni", he said yes. So I spoke to him about the errors in the Quran, and how it is deplorable that anyone would preach wife beating, and terror in the name of the living one. And no the guy did not have a beard, and wear a dress, he was just a normal man.
One thing I have noticed is that God does not work by my will but his. He some times gives me this insight other times, he hides from me what is going on in a persons life.
My name is hope-y because I hope in God, and want to bring you that hope, and hope that God shows up.
So greetings all.

Welcome matey...
Please don't hold your breathe waiting for God to show up ... He's been MIA since day 1.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

Hello.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

The only time I had to hold my breath for Him to show up was a few years ago when I was going to try to drown myself in the bath ... true story ... hated life ... God spoke to me comfort ... and I am alive today ... praise God ... I now have a great life work as a computer programmer, have the whole family thing happening.

You'll need to hang around to figure that out. I'm not giving it to you that easy.
I guess we'll see if there are any rats here. Well, ARE THERE?
hehehehe

The only rat that I know of is my son, I call him rattie, came from the term scallyrat, which was derived from the term scaly wag ... who was the son of Robert, the son of John, .... ect the son of Adam.
Sounds like the bible .. better go to the religion section.

Hello there. You are but one in a line of many who have tried and failed. But welcome anyway. I hope your stay, however long, is a pleasant one.
