Answer 1

Yeah I read all 3 books.

I liked the first the most. I did find it interesting and inspirational.. though some people who are stuck in unproductive mind-sets or idiotic orthodox religious thinking would get more benefit out of it, than already open-minded or spiritually aware people.

Nobody knows if it is really "God" speaking, or just his own thinking/thoughts.. however, the message of the books is certainly valuable and worth a read.
He has some other exercise books around, which are useful too.

Answer 2

Oh My 'GOD' . Where do I start? Firstly I use the word god because this is what people are familiar with. If there was a god would it really allow all of the hate and suffering which currently divides the world in the name of religion. I think not. As someone brought up in a christian environment I cannot quote other religious beliefs but at school we were taught that on one hand god is good, forgiving and tolerant yet on the other he was vengeful and even jealous of other beliefs. How can this be? Personally i think that god is an entity which resides within ourselves and is of a very personal and individual nature and to try to pigeonhole what we believe into a religous bracket belittles our individual spirit. 'Religion' as we know it tells us what to believe, what to do, what to say and how to behave. Seems to me that religion was invented by man as a way to control the people and discourage the kind of individuality which can lead to defiance in the face of authority, a bit like the law does now. A set of rules and regulations for people to abide by. The bible is nothing but an explanation of why we are here and where we came from formulated by primative minds without the benefit of the scientific knowledge we have today. The more believable accounts from the bible probably hold as much truth as accounts of the pharoahs of ancient Egypt and the Roman Emperors but this book was put colated and edited by man, not god. Any one who is claiming god's word may be very clear in what they have experienced, but remember it is THEIR experience and open to question. People on a rollercoaster will each come off with their own opinion and view of the events. One group will enjoy it and one group won't. Is this a reason to kill, hate, abuse and belittle eachother. If you have never actually been on the rollercoaster who would you believe - maybe just the most convincing of the ones who have! This doesn't mean they are right, only right in their opinion.

Be an individual and look within yourself to find god. You won't know how to experience god if you look to follow someone else's account of the rollercoaster, get on it yourself!

Answer 3

Yes, I have. Very interesting, but--yet, again--someone is trying to take away from the Power of God, the Power of the Blood of Christ, and the gift of salvation. I believe, as Christians, we should not what literature is being put "out there." We must read, be informed, so that we can know what we are battling.

I believe this book is another person trying to "debunk" the Inspired work of God. God's word is not up for auction, nor is it up for disassembly. "If you know me, then you know my Father," Jesus told us. "If you say I am the Son of God, you are right to say so." And I don't believe anything in the "Conversations" showed Jesus' resurrection as being "true." The resurrection of Christ is what defeated satan, defeated sin, and held us all in the Grace of the Lord.

Conversations With God---though well written---is an attempt to convince people that they are on their own. That there is no hope. But there is---"By Grace, ye are saved, through faith." FAITH---NOT RELIGION---and not by works, lest any man should boast.

So, if you're searching---then please remember this: "There is no other name under heaven by which you can be saved," but Jesus Christ.

You may also want to read "Dinner with a Friend." This book is so good. It is structured to be a personal invitation---engraved, no less!---from Jesus Christ to have dinner with Him and talk to him. If you get a chance, please read that one.

Answer 4

This is the book that really helped me to understand that all Gods are one -- including the Christian/Judiac God. I had a lot of issues with 'that' God then, having 'converted' to Paganism after being raised Christian. It was tough to find understanding in the good of the religion again after my experiences and what I had learned. I think that Neale Diamond Walsch is truly gifted and God does speak through him. It's a WONDERFUL book to read. I recommend it to any and everybody regardless of religion. No matter what religion you are I think you will walk away with a new appreciation and understanding of life as we know it.

Answer 5

This ought to be a e book said as "Conversations with God"? the reason no individual is searching that is they're searching in the incorrect area .. conversations skill 2 way, and gods do no longer exist to communicate or communicate.. they choose to look in the "Fiction" branch for this e book, i imagine, they're going to under no circumstances discover it in the Non Fiction area.. hoping this helps..

Answer 6

Most of the relvelation were through inspiration. The only Prophet God speak directly was Moses (PBUH).

If you read Torah Gospel and Qur'an you will come to know that infact all these are from God.
