people want to belive in a God so much but fear him so they say love him but have not yet establised a personal relationship, which takes time to build, you have to be willing to give up things in your life to serve our lord, some people can not. you can not help those nor judge others if you yourself have not been through the same thing. ex: you lose a child, losing a pet isnt the same you cant relate to the pain the other is going through. it is the same with a relationship with GOD. every person has their own views on how they are suppose to love him.

Good question!!! Keep 'em coming!
First, there's the Bible, which describes what Jesus was like when he was on Earth... he had style! Imagine you're sitting with a group who's listening to him and the authorities bring in a woman accused of a capital crime for which they want to kill her but they're only using her to test Jesus. With a couple of simple words, "Let those among you without sin cast the first stone" he dispels the accusers and treats her like a person instead of a criminal.
But I could also equally love a character from a nonfiction book. What makes it personal is not only being aware of the love he showed 2K years ago, but that which he shows right now... recognizing it in your daily life. Many call such signs coincidences but Christains try to recognize them as ways God acts in our life... such awareness comes from prayer.
If you don't believe or are having faith problems, just do one thing... think/pray/ask this: "God, if you're there, open my eyes to your presense today."

Don't drink kool-aid. Don't make claims. Loving and knowing Jesus are facts in my life.

I Love Jesus ! I'm sure at one time or another you said you loved someone (Brat Bitt,Jes simpson ect) and didn't know them personally...think about it.

You can know him personally by reading His Word, the Bible, and praying to him. He's died for your sins so that you can have eternal life when you die but only if you believe in him. Need more info, contact me. PLEASE.

It's called Faith. Although, I am questioning mine these days, that's what it's called. It's very strong.
