Well, I stand corrected. God is an awesome rapper.

Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to Him belong
They are weak but He is strong.

Empty brain washing words taught at an age prior to critical thinking.
Edit: How about:
Now I lay me down to sleep.
I pray the lord my soul to keep.
If I should die before I wake.
I pray the lord my soul to take.

Except I routinely have Bible discussions (friendly ones) with other Christians, including Seminary-trained pastors, and all of them remark about how well I know the Bible.
In other words, it's you, not me.
I've found many pastors lacking in an understanding of the scriptures. I'm not saying that I'm an expert, I allow the Holy Spirit to guide me and since you do not believe the Holy Spirit is real then you have never had his guidance. That means you have only a historical understanding of the Bible. The Bible is a spiritual guide to life for those who believe in Christ.

How does holy spirits guidance get to your brain? What is the method of transmission? Where does the Holy Spirit live in downtime that it's not communicating with you? What part of your brain structure is the holy spirit interacting with?
If water rots the soles of your boots, what does it do to your intestines?

Wait... The Holy Spirit can't guide you if you don't think it's real? Why not?
That's another thing I can do that God cannot. I can guide someone safely across the road, regardless of their beliefs about my existence.

If there was a prize for weak responses, congratulations.

My thoughts too. What fruyian posted looks like the kind of copy past coupled with hate mongering that religitards like godsChild love to post, being too idiotic to realise it hurts their case not helps it.
Fruyian, welcome to the forums and know you've far outgrown the likes of gc, who have been gotten to by their own internal Big Brothers a long time ago.

I learnt that with the black paternoster:
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John,
Bless the bed that I lie on.
Four corners to my bed,
Four angels round my head;
One to watch and one to pray
And two to bear my soul away.
Quite morbid when you think of it.

The Holy Spirit shows Christians the truth of scripture, is it through the brain, maybe. It is through a Christians desire to learn about the God we worship and love. Is it through the spirit God places in each person, probably.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
