Have You Ever Experienced God?
by Blueblades in.
with all the confusion between both camps when it comes to discussing god,the bible,and jesus,including the various doctrinal matters,a friend of mind told me none of it matters to him because he has evidence of god's existence through his personal experience with god.. when i asked him about it he said he couldn't explain it that i would have to experience it for myself.i told him it has never ever happened to me.. have you ever experienced god so that you could lay to rest all the why for's of things and just settle down and go on with the rest of your life and face death with confidence knowing beyond a doubt that you will be with god when you pass on.. blueblades

he made accusations against and condemned religion, politics and commerce...where is his second witness?
