To have evidence of God one must meet God on his terms. He even said in his parable of the persistent neighbor that 'we don't have to be friends' if you A.S.K. persistently that God will give you the Holy Spirit meaning even if you are not saved. again all in luke 11.
This basically means you must believe in God in order to believe in God.

If God seems to put on your mind or heart to stop cleaning other men's b-holes with your mouth due to the lack of toilet paper hoarding, or whether you did this for free before just because.. or maybe you like to push old ladies down in the street.. you might be asked to give something up.. then maybe put a pin in that activity for a while to see what else pans out with your search.
Honor God honor the process/take it seriously and your patience will be rewarded.

He has a very fucking stupid god.
His god can't tell the difference between someone who says they believe and someone who actually believes.
These people are so stupid.
They think if you *say* "I believe in the pink elephant out by the garage" it is the same as *if* there were a pink elephant out by the garage.
It may be his interpretation of Luke. 1. Drich has no Bible education ... his opinion is worthless. He's not a scholar. 2. He's never established that his scriptures have any authority..and why would they. The gospels are proclamations of what believers believed. Nothing else. They are not history. Luke (as any scholar knows) did not write "Luke".
This is a rank amateur posing as an expert. He's a total fraud.
Again belief and salvation is a seperate act from what i am purposing here.
my interpretation is a straight reading of luke i am reading off page in context and relaying the information almost word for word. there is no magic there is not combining verses/scrap book theology it is a straight read.
all scholars of note not luke wrote luke and the book of acts as the are both signed by luke. luke being a 3rd party non religious observer, and slave to theophilus.
