Hello Johan:
My name is Mark. I stumbled upon you forum, but I know that there is no such thing as co incidence. By the way I drive a 1996 Volvo 850, which is the best car I have ever owned but has 162,000 miles on it. I think we all are seekers of God to learn more about Him. At 65 years of age, I have seen the world go through many changes, and many not for the best. I have a respect for Swedish people, even though I was a marine biologist aboard and salmon fishing boat in Alaska during the 1960's with very nice Norwegian fisherman, many of whom were prejudiced against Swedish people.
I realize that I, like everybody, have a limited understanding of God, the Father of Jesus. But from many years of suffering and seeking Him, I am, just like everyone else, able to access the infinite mind of God even though I may only have a finite limited brain and mind to work with.
When we rely on human beings no matter how respected and brilliant they may be thought to be, we are leaving ourselves in unstable waters. All knowledge comes through the Father so anyone who acknowledges his limitations and speaks what is good which the Father God will approve should be thoughtfully listened to.
I attend both a Christian Church and a synagogue while seeking God and good meaningful conversation and friendship.
There is much confusion about the nature and being of God among us human beings (both angels and sons and daughters of Adam and Eve). It is good that we all seek truth in knowing more about God and how we can try to emulate Him by doing good deeds and repenting of our sins.
The theology of most of the Christian church accepts the Trinity which diminishes the infinite Father of Jesus, and creator of all life, and elevates Jesus, a finite man, of a most wonderful sacrificial character, to the same abilities of his omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent Father.
We should all try to purify our thoughts and thank the Father of Jesus for being sovereign of the universe and answering all our prayers and governing our lives through our wishes.
The people at the synagogue I attend do not believe all the words in their prayer books. Many lack the faith that God is sovereign and controls the weather, the seas, and all of the environment. They often tend to blame God for the holocaust instead of the men who rejected God and inflicted that evil upon them. I can understand why many of them feel that way because of what seems like an impossibility for God to know all things from the beginning of creation through eternity.
