I agree. That is part of the reason why many religions teach people to respect each other and treat people the way we wish to be treated ourselves. Can you imagine what a beautiful world it would be if we all simply treated each other the way we would like to be treated ourselves?

I believe that there is God in each of us, but He is inactive until we accept Jesus. The New Agers are right about the power within us, but it only applies to the born-again believer. Believers are connected through the universal church. Non-believers are only connected in the most primitive way, which is why they keep sinning against each other and thus against God.

I believe God loves each of us, but we are not all ruled by the same god. All who believe there is more then one way to get into heaven are being ruled by the evil one. Jesus (God in human form) said He was the only way.
Live is like a maze, with doors at every turn. There is only one way to the finish (and Jesus is the door).

Because God created us and sent his son to redeem us (at great personal cost) every person enjoys an extremely high level of human dignity.
That's why abortion is such a terrible sin and crime.
Unfortunately, those not baptised into the Christian (preferably Catholic) faith probably do not have God them.
For anyone born into this world, it's necessary to reject Satan, faithfully accept Jesus Christ, and be baptized into his church to actually have God in you (in your soul).
So, without Christ and his church, "God in you" is most probably just wishful thinking. The same is true for that connection you mentioned.
Without God's grace and life in your human soul, the only one you're likely to be connected with is Satan, the devil.

There is much truth to what you stated.
Melvin Morse is a pediatrician and author who is well-known for his research into the Near Death Experiences of children. As he explained it, a beautiful woman once suggested that he learn to pray. So he gave it a try. He prayed for an understanding of the relationship of man to God.
The answer came back to him in a flash of insight.
The word "fractal."
A "fractal" is a piece of a greater whole which contains within it the entire picture. Like if you were to break off a piece of a holographic image, that piece still contains within it the entire picture, albeit a smaller version.
What this points to is that all souls are "fractals of light" of The Original Creator.
This confirms what traditional ministers, priests, rabbis, etc., have been saying for centuries: that there is a piece of God in each and every one of us.
We all contain a god spark. It is up to us to cultivate it to eventually become Co-Creators in The Light after bodily death.
We get there by striving to live by The Golden Rule, by serving others, and by pursuing the unparalleled approach that The Original Creator used to become God Realized: Heart Chakra Radiance.

It is good to have belief. It is even better to directly PERCIEVE. It is good to have concepts. It is better to ACTUALIZE. Yes we are All connected to God/Source/Creation. We each have the divine spark in all of us. But how do you directly percieve that spark? How do you make it so that you KNOW we all are connected to one another and how do you take it from a belief to an all encompassing actualization of this Oneness? This Oneness from the beginingless past into eternity. How does one see through the separation so that one KNOWS we are all connected?
Seek and you shall find.
The truth shall set you free.

I also think that we are connected and we all are actuallly trying to achieve the same thing together. Each living entity on earth is trying to achieve one single thing - although I do not know what it is. But life and living amuse all of us -ants working all day long, birds never stopping to build their nests, polar bears swim in -50 for tens of kilometers. Yes we are all connected. What is it ? For me God has been defined before he has been discovered.

God is in all of us. We will not be separated from him until we die, if we are going to hell. Even the people claiming they dont believe, and say there is no God, if they had to live without him, they would truly have their eyes opened. When the realize he has been there the whole time, i pray it is not too late for them. They will be very ashamed.

I believe in the Bible. It teaches that God wants a relationship with us. We are only connected to him if we choose.

I believe as you do. He is the
god head and we are created in his image. We all have a
god heart and we know it well especially when we think of doing something bad, Hes that voice that tells you "you know that]s not right. Learn to follow that voice and you'll be okay!
