He is God, and no- I have not gained anything apart from Him. Without Him, I have no real reson to exist.

I know the above psychology all too well. And I've actually met evangelicals who said they would want to die if they found out that God didn't exist.

This is why I say religion can be like an addictive drug.

Which might be worthwhile information if the scriptures carried any more credibility weight than the assertions of anyone else.

the heavenly beings met with god and he asked satan, have you considered my servant job? he keeps away from evil. in job 1,8.
obviously the lord was pleased with job, fulfilling the first and greatest command. there is a second command who is like the first. is he pleased with you?

The ground seems okay to me. Besides, wouldn't this Jesus fellow object to my standing on him?

follow his teachings, he is the only way to the kingdom of heaven. is there any other kingdom higher than heaven, beyond the earth and the universe? is there any land deeper than sheol, the world of the dead, the gloomy dark land fathomless beyond the earth and the universe?. with the earth in the middle of both. we cannot reach them, god has done this.

the fear of god is therefore the greatest command.

a man will sacrifice anything to spare his life. now hurt his body and he will curse you to your face. jesus was a man yet he blessed them in his affliction.
