our creator aka "god" as some chose to label him. made us all.. we are his creation. his hand is in all of us. our being, our consciousness is him.. our physical manifestation is him, we are all images of him naturally,

we however have be caught in an illusion that makes us believe that we are separate from him and eachother. but we are One.

When we wake up to this truth we will begin to live as one in Unity and live in HArmony.

TO wake up is to Know. that the Oneness in us all Is God.. he is the controller of consciousness as it plays out on the earth,, but we are sleeping and dreaming and not Awake to this truth... this is the reason everything is confusing and hazy to us.. we cant see clearly when in dreams.. nothing makes sense to us.. When we wake up to know who we are.. we begin to allow GOd to manifest onto the earth and create the beauty that he intends to create through US.

Wake up..

God dwells within and around all of us. he is not literally in my little heart or in an area of my brain. He is connected to who i am, my spirit is his and his is mine. The issue is that sin dwells within me as well. so i struggle and must die to carnal desires daily. There is nowhere to go to hide from him. God is in you and you are in God.

Yes, I believe in our hearts. Everyone. Some just don't know it yet.

By heart, that part of us which incorporates conscience, and feeling, and all that we "are" beyond our physical characteristics and personality traits. This is also, I believe, our spirit.

To "speak from the heart" means to tell what we know sincerely, honestly, directly, truthfully.

Many Christians believe their heart is deceptive and that they cannot trust it. (Actually, they should trust God, who through Christ is in our heart.)
So if they see their heart is deceptive, then He is not yet on the Throne in their lives.


Blessings,
brian

Good answer . . . even though we differ on many details . . . you have the locus correct and the love part down pat.

God doesn't dwell in me; He dwells in Heaven (or so the scriptures say in literally dozens of verses). His spirit, however, resides wherever there is good.

Hi Kat

Who is the Greater one referred to in this scripture ?.

because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4

God is Spirit. How far away is the heaven you believe in ?.

though he is not far from any one of us Acts 17:27.

Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves.
Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you--unless, of course, you fail the test?

I lived a great deal of my Christian life failing this test of not realizing it, having Him existing everywhere but in me.

Our failure as Christians stems from not realizing it,being far to obsessed with everything in the bible, rather than what exists and is living in us.

I think our consciousness is a more accurate "location", at least to me.
