what being apart from the law means.

[Drich]

A/S/K is fraudulent and false advertising.

What is being advertized? that anyone who A/S/K will experience The Holy Spirit/God. How is this false advertising?

It cannot work for anyone who is in a position of ignorance of God or incredulous about him.

Have you considered that the reason this method was put into place was to help seperate the wheat and the weeds? To even further seperate the wheat from the Chaff?

God Demands that we first Humble ourselves before Him, and then allow Him to lift us up.
Ever think that if You can not Humble yourself before God and do this one thing, then maybe He does not want anything to do with you?

You cannot even begin the process until you make six huge, incredible assumptions:

1. God exists.
2. God is a personal God.
3. All other Gods are false.
4. Jesus existed.
5. Jesus died for your sins.
6. The Bible is the infallible word of God (how can you trust the verses which allegedly instruct you how to A/S/K if you doubt the book's veracity?)

NONE of this stuff is needed. Christ tells us (whether you believe it or even know of it or not.. All that one needs to have is the faith of a mustard seed that will lead him to A/S/K, and the Holy Spirit will take care of the rest of your list and then some.

When I started I could not check any of those items off of the list. All I had was an honest desire to know the truth, and enough loyality to be faithful to what God gave me. And even then I was only as faithful as i needed to be. The only real thing I brought to this adventure was a driving desire to know God if there was a God to be known.

By the time you've gotten to the point where you can make yourself even begin to A/S/K, you've already padlocked all the doors in your mind which can ever lead you to doubt that you're going to get precisely the answer you expect. A/S/K is nothing more than convoluted mental masturbation.

How long does one masturbate before he has the courage to A/S/K out a proper mate?
