The Reasons why "Just Following Jesus" Doesn't work

[Redbeard The Pink]

I wasn't saying you father was like may mother's step-father, like a posted in parentheses . I was just giving you example of people who grew up in Christianity walked away and then truly found God. If you were depressed and disappointed with Christianity that may be because you were not following God. That does not mean that those who believe in God do not struggle with these things, but it isn't because they are following God but seeking to control their own life. I see God freeing me of anxiety and enables me to lead a fulfilled life although at times it is difficult. If you began to doubt wither you were saved the Holy Spirit would have reassured you of that reality. Since it would seem that you didn't receive that reassurance that leads me to question, not your devotion to Christianity, wither you actually knew God.

Did you do things for God or did God lead you to do thing and you accomplished those tasks through His grace and power? Did you find that you loved people more because of you knew God? Where you experiencing victory over your sins through the power of the Holy Spirit? Were you humble in spirit and saw that you needed a savior more and more? Could you identify the specific sins that God had saved you from?

I don't fear reality because I know the one who controls it. Since I don't need to follow God on twitter to know what He wants I will keep on praying for you and allow God's will to be done.

Yes, in my perception, I was all the things you describe. I now realize, of course, that I wasn't, and neither are you. This is just more scripted garbage from your history of indoctrination. No matter how many different ways you say it, you can't tell me what I believed or why I believed it, or why I stopped. You can't, and neither can your stupid book. You don't even really know why you hold your own beliefs. There are whole sciences devoted to why people have religious experiences like the ones you have and I used to have, and they provide better explanations of the phenomenon than "Gaud did it."


This is, of course, more evidence of the fact that you don't really believe in Gaud because he's real or because of evidence, but because you lack the perception and critical thinking skills to see reality as it truly is and realize that Gaud is not a part of it. You need to accept reality and save yourself from your ignorance and delusions. We're really just trying to help you. Why won't you accept our help? Why do you hate reality?
