When you prayed did it ever work?

[Edwardo Piet]

If 8 times out of 10 you got shocked when you turned on a given light switch, would it be your belief that the next time you turn on the switch even though 2 times out of 10 you did not get shocked? Or would the 'hits' preveil over the 'misses?"

Whether the hits prevail over the misses is not the same as 'counting the hits and ignoring the misses' - which is what I said. If you ignore the misses then you don't even know that the hits are prevailing over them. That is my point.

I don't understand anything of Q1

Well, my question was in response to this:

You know his will as you test it against your knowledge of him.

I'll rephrase my question then: how can you know his will 'as you test it [his will] against your knowledge of him' if you need to know his will before you can test his will 'against your knowledge of him' in the first place?

As for point "2", I'm saying that how do you know that your accepted knowledge of your experience is consistent with your idea of God? How does it validate it?

2. ? Because it's the same?!

So your conception of "God" is identical to your knowledge of your experience? So the knowledge that you have of your experience is what you would call "God", and your conception of "God" is what you would call "the knowledge of your experience"? So you are merely labelling the knowledge of your own personal experience as "God?"
