Do any of you simply sit in nature and let truth come to you? Has it affected how you read the bible, or how you perceive your lord?
To truly live like Jesus, shouldn't you all do this, as Jesus did when he went on his vision quest?

Jesus went into the desert for 40 days and 40 nights and fasted and prayed. It was obviously good enough for him.

Christians do this frequently, and I can speak for myself that when I need time to admire, the Unmoved Mover, the Creator of all creation, I do just that, retire or retreat from it all. And with that said that is what retreats are for and the meaning is to retreat from all the mundane and come to the realization that God is in all nature.
Thanks for bringing up this question. It is something that I believe more people need to do.

Jesus also cast devils into a heard of Pigs. Have you tried that yet?
Don't. The farmer gets really upset. Especially when you start chanting and waving the crucifix at the pigs. I just told him I was only following the example set by our Lord, but he kicked me off the farm anyway.

Every day I try my best to do more n more. The few times I have it it 100%, I have been repaid just as it says.
Its like walking on air off a cliff......you think you will fall...even though he says you will not....you test a foot here and there...and you realize you won't fall....but your senses are trying to still tell you that you will.
The truth coming to me.....is what led me away from 30 yrs of being an atheist. And a damn good one I am sorry to admit.

Jesus was there at the creation of it all....what did he have to take in? reading the bible is what enhances the creation not the other way around
Jesus went to the dessert to be tempted of satan and to rise above it...not for some hippy expedition

The Holy Spirit is here to lead and guide us into ALL truth. He is only a prayer away.

No, because if they caught sight of the New Mexican Whiptail, they'de have second thoughts on how correct the Bible is....

This may come as a shock to you, but Jesus never really liked nature.
