[quote:Heyoka The Sacred Clown 23190336:MV81MDI4MTYyXzk0NzUwOTUwXzQwQ0FFRjYx] Oh boy.. I mean girl meat eater, aye? Did you know that there is no such thing as Alien?. And why did you 5 starred your threads over 300 times?. :pennywise: If you and I are to have a true friendship — a working friendship, and not just a friendship in theory... That’s important. Let’s stop here and make that distinction, because that’s an important distinction. Many people think that God is their friend, but they don’t know how to use that friendship. They see it as a distant relationship, not a close one. Many more people do not even think of Me as a friend at all. That’s the sad part of it. Many people think of Me as a parent, not a friend—and a harsh, cruel, demanding, angry parent at that. A Father who will tolerate absolutely no failure in certain areas—such as, for instance, how to worship Me. In the minds of these people, I not only demand your worship, I demand it in a specific way. It is not enough that you come to Me. You must come to Me by a particular path. Should you come to Me by another path—any other path—I will reject your love, ignore your entreaties, and, indeed, condemn you to hell. [i]Even though my search for You was sincere, my intent pure, and my understandings the best I could reach?[/i] Even though. Yes, even though. In the minds of these people, I am a stringent parent who will accept nothing less than absolute correctness in your understandings of Who I Am. If you are not correct in the understandings at which you have arrived, I will punish you. You can be as pure in your intent as possible; you can be so filled with love for Me that you overflow. I will cast you into the fires of hell nonetheless, and you will suffer there forever if you come to Me with the wrong name on your lips, the wrong ideas in your head. [i]It is sad that so many people see You that way. This is not how a friend would behave at all.[/i] No, it is not. And so the very idea of having a friendship with God, the kind of relationship you have with your best friend, who will accept anything given in love, forgive everything done in error—that kind of friendship—is unfathomable to them. Then, among those who do see Me as their friend, you are right; most of them hold Me at a great distance. They do not have a working friendship with Me. It is, rather, a very distant relationship that they hope they can count on if they should ever have to. But it is not the day-to-day, hour-to-hour, minute-to-minute friendship that it could be. [i]And You were starting to tell me what it would take to have that kind of friendship with You.[/i] A change of mind and a change of heart. That is what it would take. A change of mind and a change of heart. And courage. [i]Courage? [/i] Yes. The courage to reject every notion, every idea, every teaching of a God who would reject you. This will take enormous bravery, because the world has contrived to fill your head with those notions, ideas, and teachings. You will have to adopt a new thought about all of this, a thought that runs counter to virtually everything you’ve ever been told or heard about Me. That’ll be tough. For some, that’ll be very tough. But it will be necessary, because you can’t have a friendship— not a real, not a close, not a working, give-and-take friendship—with someone you fear. So a big part of forging a friendship with God is forgetting our “fearship” with God. [i]Oh, I like that. That’s not an actual word in your language, but I like it.[/i] That’s exactly what you’ve had with Me all these years—a fearship with God.
