Why can't I talk directly to God?

Question

instead of through Jesus. I wouldn't like any obstacles or obstructions in my worship of the one, true God. And don't say Jesus is God b/c there is 3 parts to God in Christianity...I don't like the 3 in one. God has certain traits but I think the Holy Spirit, God and Jesus are 3 seperate entities, unified in their message and only God is divine..does that make sense...?

Answer 1

"I don't like the 3 in one..." amazing. Do you like having a prayer life that is a waste of time? Do you like having a faith that doesn't work? Better stick to the manual then and get over the bits you don't like.

Answer 2

You can't think that they are separate (when they are not) and then say that Jesus is not got and that you have an obstacle in your way.

You have a spirit, soul and body right? Does that make you three people? Its the same with God. He has a Spirit (Holy Spirit), Soul (God the Father) and Body (Jesus).

If the Bible says they are one, you can't decide that they are not and then complain about it. Remember that Jesus is the only way the truth and the life and if you don't go through Jesus, you may not end up at the correct destination. You may end up at the doorstep of a demon.

Be careful and ask the Holy Spirit to show you the truth.

Answer 3

because it is ordained in heaven that NO one can Come to the Father except through Jesus. But the greater promise is manifest, to those that are worthy, Jesus and the Father will come and Eat Dinner with such a person.

as did God the Father and two angels came to Abrham before the cities of sodom and gomorah were destroyed.

So if anyone ever says God is invisible ALL the time and CAN never be seen, just midly correct them that God is NOT seen by the men of Sin! alone. The greater promises are given to the believers who are worthy.

at the same time Dont believe that any of you are Worthy! the book of revelation denounces those that SAY they are Worthy and are not.

Answer 4

Christ Himself (the 2nd person of the Trinity) taught us to pray to the Father.

Pray to Him in the Son's Holy name - which means that you understand that you are able to speak to the Father because of what has been done for you by the Son.

And this all through the Spirit!

You do not have to like the triune nature of God in order for it to be true.

Here is how I understand it: God is three persons the Father the Son and the Spirit.

Christ the Son is no less divine than the Father - read through John. "I and the Father are ONE"

The Spirit also is no less divine - He proceeds from the Father and the Son and is fully God.

"Could I Deal with GodDirectly?"
By Hayat Anne Collins Osman

Read along as Anne Collins tells the story of coming from confusion to directlycommunicating with Allah . . .





I was raised in a religious Christian family. At that time, Americans were more religious than they are now—most families went to church every Sunday, for example. My parents were involved in the church community. We often had ministers (Protestant “priests”) in the house. My mother taught in Sunday school, and I helped her.

I must have been more religious than other children, although I don’t remember being so. For one birthday, my aunt gave me a Bible, and my sister a doll. Another time, I asked my parents for a prayer book, and I read it daily for many years.

When I was in junior high school (middle school), I attended a Bible study program for two years. Up to this point, I had read some parts of the Bible, but had not understood them very well. Now was my chance to learn. Unfortunately, we studied many passages in the Old and New Testaments that I found inexplicable, even bizarre.

For example, the Bible teaches an idea called Original Sin, which means that humans are all born sinful. I had a baby brother, and I knew that babies were not sinful.

The Bible has very strange and disturbing stories about Prophet Abraham and Prophet David, for example. I couldn’t understand how Prophets could behave the way the Bible says they did.

Answer 6

Actually you can talk directly to God the Father when you recieve the gift of touges that is in the bible. We as christians who are born again in the spirit not people who are following a doctrine of anything else can speak directly to God in prayer. Our prayer got right up to the thrown and Jesus answers them he makes them right. But you have to address them to God. Our father who is in heaven. You can alway address them to Jesus as well. They are all three God and all three agree as one. They in fact are one spirit. Jesus and the holy spirit are the two anointed of God. Jesus is the one mediator between God and man. Jesus is God and he is the Father and he is the Holy Spirit. Jesus is the face of God that men have looked upon and he is the word of God that became man. He in fact came out of the father and he has returned to the father. Just as the holy spirit came out of the father and can return to him in the future. So pray to God he will answer but you should know that he has many titles and if you invoke the right title you get the right results. So it pays to know the word of God as well. If i am calling on God for healing i might want to call on the healing title of God and remind him of his word and the covenat. It is called a relationship. And also comes from knowing God.

Answer 7

Read John 8:58 & Isaiah 54:5

Jesus is God

Answer 8

Because Jesus provided the way to God. He is the One Mediator. Without Him we wouldn't be able to reach God at all. Kind of like an agent...or a broker.

Answer 9

The answer is that you do, even if you don’t understand how this is done. Many generations have passed to their children the trinity theology, but this doesn’t do justice to God, for He is One, and is infinite. Just as a man on earth can wear several hats (father, husband, provider, etc.), God has multiple roles and responsibilities that belong to Him and are His nature. God is Life, Truth, and Love, and is one God, not three gods. God hears those who call His name.

Answer 10

God is always listening, and yes you are right God is ONE. not pieces..

please check this

[005:072] Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allâh is the Messiah ['Îsâ (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary)." But the Messiah ['Îsâ (Jesus)] said: "O Children of Israel! Worship Allâh, my Lord and your Lord." Verily, whosoever sets up partners (in worship) with Allâh, then Allâh has forbidden Paradise to him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong doers) there are no helpers.

[005:073] Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allâh is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is no Ilâh (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilâh (God Allâh). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall on the disbelievers among them.

[005:074] Will they not turn with repentance to Allâh and ask His forgiveness? For Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

[005:075] The Messiah ['Îsâ (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary), was no more than a Messenger; many were the Messengers that passed away before him. His mother [Maryam (Mary)] was a Siddîqah [i.e. she believed in the Words of Allâh and His Books (see Verse 66:12)]. They both used to eat food (as any other human being, while Allâh does not eat). Look how We make the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) clear to them; yet look how they are deluded away (from the truth).

Answer 11

You may always talk directly to God. But its good to end the conversation with the name of Jesus.
