October, 1965... Time magazine.... this is part of what sent me outside my upbringing in the church....

(I was at that 'questioning' age, as well).... now, looking back, I'm just as convinced as I was then.... what did this mean to those of you who remember it?...

God as an alien ... interesting concept.
It's not entirely impossible that Jehovah was an alien, for all we Earthlings know. Ever read about Ezekiel's experience with a flying saucer and robotic men? And the theory that the Ark of the Covenant was a giant PA system?
Klaatu verada niktu!

For centuries man has rejected God and tried in vain to discredit His existence.
For those who have proof that God is Alive and Well:
We see the works of His hands in creation.
Those who have the desire to come to know Him have experienced his presence in their lives.
The Creator did not leave us without a message from Him, he gave His word the Holy Bible.
What gives us evidence that the authorship of this manuscript is of divine nature?
1. Authenticity proven by archeology
2. Fulfilled prophesies
3. Internal harmony written over a period of 1600 years by 40 different penmen from all walks of life who all gave credit and the inspiration of their writings to the one true God.
4. Integrity and candor of writers
5. High moral standards: teachings,examples and doctrines are most practical for modern man which set it apart from as far above all other books.
6. Historical accuracy
7. Scientifically sound
8. Preservation and the world's best seller of all time.
The bible gives us one theme from beginning to end. It tells us how God's promised Kingdom will solve man's problems here on earth which gives us the hope of being a part and subject to it.
What else do we need to believe in a loving God?

I was 12. I hadn't had my God experience yet, but I remember just thinking it was silly. How can God die? He's God.
Those who don't think that God can exists when the world is filled with corruption, have never studied God. The Bible clearly tells us why there is corruption in the world, why God allowed it, and what he is doing about it. All a person has to do is look.

It is too bad that you chose to believe that with no hope of anything better than to choose a loving God that offers you salvation from this sinful world
