Looking within oneself will never find God unless He is invited in to begin with.
The New Age leaders like Oprah think there is a landscape of wonder within.
They flatter themselves. The history of mankind testifies against them.
Hello. :-)
In part you're right, but what he meant was that ultimate truth can be found, within. (if we believe the story, one can assume Jesus meant that a life without God, will create an inner turmoil)
But...We don't need to believe in a Deity to live with peace, joy hope and love. Those things are the "truths" of a content life. With or without a belief in a Deity.
Yes?
