Do Christians actually want evidence?

[Drich]

that is like saying a low carb diet did not help you loose weight, and you know this to be true because you gave up all carbs, except pasta, and pizza... and cookies, but all other carbs you cut out of your diet, and the diet did not work!

That's not true at all. I followed the exact a/s/k method you described, because I was afraid I'd committed blasphemy and was seeking the love and forgiveness of the lord.

again if you did not find God and stopped Asking and seeking then you did not follow the model in luke 11. You may have very earnestly asked and sought, but you did not knock. 1/3 of everything Jesus has to say in that passage is on the importance of knocking. If you did not knock you did not complete the perscribed path. therefore you did not do it 'my' or rather God's way.

Right so Lemon failed because he stopped. If he had kept going it would have worked..... eventually.
Anyone reminded of that episode of the legend of aang with the fortune teller and the red shoes?

If lemon kept going more than likely he would have come to a point or a realization that his current model of faith was not valid, therefore putting him is a situation to question everything, (and hold on to what is good. ) which is what we are told to do in 1thess 5:21.
the other option is to question and dismiss everything you once believed, and never look at any of it again, or even to go as far as ignoring anything God may do for him in the furtue.

This is where the knocking comes in. If Lemon were to keep knocking (and holding on to what is good) He would slowly rebuild his faith on Christ, allowing him to open his eyes and ears to God.

As it is God answered his prayer and help him get rid of the toxic elements of his faith, all lemon (or any of the rest of you who were/are in his situation) has to do now is to be faithful to this 'rest' and start to build on the clean slate God gave him.
