Glory is glorious!!!! The glory of God is limitless, it doesn't stop or quit. It cannot be hindered. Yet how often do we say our goal in life is to glorify God (rightly so!!!) but our mind set is that we have not accomplished it yet, or have fallen short a bit. We fail to glorify God in our opinion but that stinks of a shadow crossing over His LIMITLESS glory... (insert much sarcasm and hinting language). Thus God needs me to fill up something that He is lacking!!!! (more voice inflection) Is not God fully limitless (redundancy department)? Thus He does not need me to accomplish His purpose (to glorify Himself)? Thus isn't everything that happens, every decision of man bringing glory to Him, with good or evil?
If you respond (and please respond, i mean how many parenthetical statements can one guy make in a post!) please avoid arguments of potential responses of man! In other words don't say this isn't true because people will then think they can go live or do such and such.
I am sure there is somebody that will call me out (some time i will write something i don't think is true just to get somebody to disagree, which is after all my purpose in this blog.)
Dive in the pool folks, get a little slimy!!!!

God doesn't need a watch.
Too shallow and not enough controversy i say to my self.
God is our ultimate goal. He is everything. The goal, the focus, the purpose... everything. So the greatest thing we can talk about is Him.
He is totally unlimited. Nothing holds Him in or forces Him. I believe that God is not limited by time. He never reacts and is above the constrains of time. I believe that God created time, not only the concept but all of time. He steps back with all of the time line of history in front of Him, which He created completely. I believe he created where every atom would be for all of time, and every action of man was created by God as well.
That kind of snuck up on your didn't it, you agreed at first than completely shut down. But think is this not necessary, for God to be God He cannot be limited by anything and if He was waiting for things to happen so He could influence it wouldn't that make Him subject to it and us?

It is open season.
Inigo Montoya and the Dread Pirate Roberts have spoken the pleasantries and standing facing with swords drawn. "Begin"
If this blog is even worth looking at occasionally we must ask...
Why should we search for truth when the people who seem to have found it haven't seemed to be helped by it, or they are drab and boring. Does truth make us intellectual and lofty above everybody else? Would the truth preaching church be inviting or rejecting?

Come Alice, down the rabbit hole.
This blog is a calling, a heralding of all those searching for truth, all those desiring to question reality, not whether we actually exist or not... course that might come up, but the reality of unchecked tradition. These yellings are for those willing to run the rabbit trail and jump down the rabbit hole and have their world rocked.
All who are willing are welcome. The only requirement is openness and understanding. This is a peaceful forum in which to contradict and disagree. I do not claim to have arrived and in no way am i the authority. My goal is to inspire people to a "desert thirst for the word" (Ray Jardine, my Grandpa).
My assertion:
Nooma Nogin (Spirit Brain)! Spiritual wisdom and understanding are the focal point of the truth seeker. I believe that disagreement is a great way to motive thinking, the igniting match to passionate truth seeking.
My preconceptions:
-In truth is our reason for being. Our quest is glorious but also utmost in importance.
-The Bible is the standard in the search for truth. If you say something back it with scripture or shut your yapper!
-I completely understand that we could end up with a pool of ignorance, but we must begin the hunt in search of truth.
My Requirments:
Do not be judgmental! If I think you are judging somebody you are out (Romans 14)!
Don't use big words... to assure that everybody knows what you are saying explain the concept don't just use the word. I want all to be able to seek (without having to go to seminary!). So don't use the word Semi-pelagianism or monergism, explain it!!!
That is it let us open season on our beliefs and traditions, and begin the hunt in the Word of God. Let us not just disagree but let us be moved, let us be thrilled to connect the dots. And above may He be worshiped.
