IF THERE IS A GOD

If there is a god–
— then I can hate him.
— then I can fight him.
— then I can argue against him.
— then I can modify him.
— then I can deal with him on my terms.

Is not this what all mankind has been doing since day one in the garden with a little logical/rational help from the first creature to try the above ?

If there is a god – – – and we all know there is – – – that explains all the enormous effort spent on religion—every imaginable stripe, invention, ritual, sacrifice, power grab, control system, and ‘non-religious’ religions (non-name-brand).

B U T – – – as in “But God . . .”

If there is a god –

– changes to –

THERE IS GOD.

– – –

And He has spoken “in the beginning”.
— By His Word we are here.
— By His Word everything is here.
— By His Word we are gone.

And He still speaks today.
— He even wrote it down in a book, in black and white.
— He tells us everything we need to know.
— He tells us THE TRUTH.
— He still gives us a choice—for now—take it or leave it.
— He also tells us the consequences of our choice, now and when we die.
