If God is like the father to all of us isn't it like he just pulled the car up to earth and dropped us off without ever turning back?
And some of the 'brothers and sisters' are still waiting and hoping for him to come back...

Denominations at present are many and distinctive. the unique “mainline” denominations have spawned distinctive offshoots which includes Assemblies of God, Christian and Missionary Alliance, Nazarenes, Evangelical unfastened, self sufficient Bible churches, and others. some denominations emphasize reasonable doctrinal ameliorations, yet extra oftentimes they only furnish categories of worship to extra healthful the differing tastes and opportunities of Christians. yet make no mistake: as believers, we'd desire to be of one innovations on the necessities of the religion, yet previous that there is large deal of selection in how Christians ought to worship in a company placing. This selection is what motives an incredible variety of distinctive “flavors” of Christianity. A Presbyterian church in Uganda might have a sort of worship plenty distinctive from a Presbyterian church in Colorado, yet their doctrinal stand would be, for the main area, the comparable. variety is a mind-blowing element, yet disunity isn't. If 2 churches disagree doctrinally, debate and talk over the notice may well be referred to as for. this variety of “iron sprucing iron” (Proverbs 27:17) is useful to all. in the event that they disagree on type and type, although, it somewhat is positive for them to stay separate. This separation, although, does not raise the duty Christians might desire to love one yet another (a million John 4:11-12) and finally be united as one in Christ (John 17:21-22).

Hi,
It is not like that at all. He is there in everything you touch, see, smell and feel. Everything around you is a loving system of guidence that takes you to the state of consciousness where you will reveal the ultimate good.
You are totally wrapped in his love. His inner light is what lights your consciousness and his outward light guides you to love. These two aspects of the light are divided by your consciousness (WHAT YOU THINK AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE). The outward is a reflection of your inward light that filters thru what you think and believe. It is done is such a way to lead you to that state of Christ / Buddah / God consciousness of divine love....
You have never been abandoned by or are apart from him.

Psalm 55:22 says: “Throw your burden upon Jehovah himself, and he himself will sustain you. Never will he allow the righteous one to totter.
Has not Abandoned Us.
On a Lighter Note, why do the Muslims Keep " Qouting" from the Bible to prove to themselves and others that Mohammed was mentioned in the Bible when they themselves say that The Bible is " Contaminated"..?? Idiocy.

No, our father has not abandoned us. Did you ever watch a pot of water - waiting for it to boil? Waiting and waiting . . .
Always seems as if it is doing absolutely nothing. Then suddenly, the water is boiling and roiling and steaming. Truth is, it was doing something all along. We just didn't realize it. Or we just didn't known what to look for. It is similar with our heavenly father.

No. Actually, we abandoned Him.
We refuse to listen to Him, we refuse to take counsel (advice) from Him, we all go our own way "like sheep without a shephard", and we refuse His direction and guidance.
Then we turn around and blame God!!!!
God sent Jesus to reconcile us back to the Father by trading places with us ("He who knew no sin became sin, so that we could become the righteousness of God in Him.")

I think this ties in well with a previous question comparing the blind faith religious with severely neglected children.

The Bible says that those who believe that Jesus, who is God, died for our sins on the cross and rose again, are the children of God. No other people are. The rest are children of wrath, but can become children of God at any moment, by believing the above.
If one rejects it to their dying breath, they will be in hell for eternity.
