The Holy Spirit/God will personally guide and direct you.
So you say.
Yet you have not explained how we should go about determining whether your experience is anything other than a natural brain state being misinterpreted by your confirmation bias.
You have not explained how we should go about determining whether similar experiences that people of other religions have are not legitimate, and yours is not.
Lets say we sincerely attempt what you claim is a sure fire method and we get no results. How do we go about determining whether we are doing something wrong, or that there is simply nothing there?
Actually I have explained this process several times now. In the bible their are Evidences of the Holy Spirit outlined in Gal 5 these are known as Spiritual fruit. Once we have the Holy Spirit and are faith to what we have been Given Spiritual fruit give way to Spiritual gifts. These are explained in 1 cor 12. Spiritual gifts are ablities that we are given by God that we did not have when we started this process.

If God is everything how could God not already be every part of you? Are you sure you're qualified to judge which bits are godly which not? I guess what I'm trying to ask is why you think anyone should listen to you regarding any of this.
what makes you think God is everything?
two your second objection, I am just trying to share what I myself have received.

I asked him the same question some 5 pages ago and he simply ignored it... Go figure why...
because out of 250 posts your one post got lost in the shuffle.

Please don't try and compare a subjective human emotion linked to brain chemistry and the release of hormones to the existence of a supernatural creator-god figure. It's sloppy and dishonest.
