How many people here are really religious?

Question

Now i mean ppl who have experinced the love of God.And felt like God has called them.I have a nice experince where this feeling was more nice than cocaine,drinks or any drugs in this world an experience of fullness where no lust jealousy hatred strucks your mind and anger is miles away..A feeling that you are the most happiest man on the earth and suddenly you walk down to the busy streets of the city where u see people and can makeout they are so much full of burden on their heads..You can literally see them surrounded with evil. And satan talking to you trying to pull you down to your ol ways .Has anyone here had this experience?

Answer 1

Yes daily,That is why I pick up my cross daily.It serves to strengthen our commitment to GOD. We are like Trees in the wind.May God Bless You.P.S. although I do not claim to be religious,just spiritual.

Answer 2

No Christian has experienced that. I was talking earlier in one of my questions about how many churches today present the gospel as a self-help mechanism. If someone professes faith based on the fact that they think being a Christian will make them more happy and have an easier life, then they're doing it for the wrong reason. I'm a Christian because the Lord did call me out of darkness. I have the same temptations that everyone else has, to pursue the things of this world and live immorally. Sometimes it is overwhelmingly hard. Becoming a Christian doesn't make you perfect. It simply means that you realize that humans are by nature children of wrath (eph 2- please read it) and Jesus came to earth as the propitiation for my sin. Its for that reason that I continue to fight no matter how hard the struggle. My pastor actually made an interesting analogy about the Christian life. In the same way that someone hanging from the side of a 200-story tall building would hold for dear life, as a Christian I hang on to the Lord with all my might, because I know that the only alternative is falling away. The big difference is that I have the Lord helping me along, and praise God, that he is keeping me.

Answer 3

If you're counting:

Really religious: no.
Experienced the love of God: no.
Felt like God has called me: no.
Has anyone ever had this experience: without mind-altering substances, no. But I can walk down the street and concentrate on the goodness in humanity, so I'd ask you if your god-experience truly is making you happy or just more misanthropic?

Answer 4

Being a Muslim ,love ,happiness,forgiveness---etc existed in my life ,cause this relegion taught me how to deal with people around me and even myself.This relegion is great which fulfill your heart ,brain and soul .It changed me a lot cause I was feeling before as if im without a name ,no spiritual feelings at all as if I were blind,when I used to go to church I used to see many people with no respectfull to the church they entered ,sleeveless,shorts,strapless and boxers out ,Im not talking about all of them but the most were like that and mostly they went there for a reason ,a problem occured !!!or wanted to confess so I compared this situation to the Islamic community and I realized that entering the mosque is spiritual for them wearing a respectful clothes ,praying 5 times daily,men stopped the cars near a mosque they passed by and pray if it was the time for praying ,you can't imagine how great is the Holly Qur'aan and miracle !!!! really this relegion deserves a lot to explain about cause when ever I write about my experience people just replied at yahoo that muslims are terrorists !!!!and what I found was totally different so I just advise all the people on this earth to learn about Islam and then they can judge cause we mustn't judge at others without knowing about them ..For me the Islamic web sites and reading the Holly Qur'aan helped me a lot to answer many questions in my mind.....and I advise you to open this web site www.Islamalways.com

Answer 5

Thinking that you experienced love of God does not mean you are a real religious. There are many believers whom did not ever experienced any miracle or anything related to that God loves them. But they could not know what is the best for them. They just insisted on what they belived in and only they know the result. Believers should not pay attention to such situations.

Answer 6

i am spiritual not religious but yes i understand the feeling , i have experienced it
but unlike yourself i don't walk along the street and see satan in everyone .. i do see a light in everyone and know that behind the burdens worries and any wrong actions someone may have taken . there is a beautiful person there that isn't to be judged and is in essence still a wonderful spirit behind the physical presence

Answer 7

i can completely understand u since i feel and taste the love of god in every mintue in my life and that`s makes me much happier and thankful for the lord who made me see the right path.
i feel that he love me morethan i love myself sothat i am do not worry about tommorow coz i am sure that tomorow will be much better as long as i am inlove with Allah.loving the lord and the king is the most beautiful feeling u can have and there are few ppl who feel that coz they can not accept god so they will never feel his love.
let`s say that the love of god and ur love for god changes ur life.sure it change ur life for the best but be careful that the devil will not leave u inpeace to enjoy thsi love,he will try to make u feel that there is no god and this love which u feel in ur heart is just a big lie.do not believe who say that ,just follow ur heart.
THE MORE U TAST THE LOVE OF ALLAH,THE MORE U BE HAPPIER IN UR SHORT LIFE

Answer 8

Are you really asking about religion or being faithful. There is a big difference. Many play at religion and are religious but the faith is not in them. Jesus himself dealt with religious people to and they killed him.

Being faithful on the other hand is not the same as religion. When I claim faith in Christ, then I have to learn what that faith is about, What did Jesus do. That is the model and it is the model that I strive to follow. But if you choose it, it comes with a cost. You will be hated for the name of Jesus, you will be called all kinds of names, you will be laughed at, can you handle these things. Is your faith that strong???

Answer 9

Judaism is a religion of action; not peace of mind, but peace on earth.

Is it a sin for Christians to actually work toward peace on earth instead of waiting for a miracle to take them to that land of bliss in the netherworld?

Shalom!

Answer 10

I love the Pizza God.

Not only do I worship him, I set aside at least one day a week to do nothing other than enjoy his blessings.

Praise the Almighty Pizza!!!


Maybe you should lay off that holy wine for awhile, sounds like you have the dt's.
