Ask Not What God Can Do For You But What You Can Do For God

"Myself, I am but a humble servant, and have little need for the compulsory attentions of a captive audience. But the Lord our God, Light of the World, has asked that I pass his mind-numbing and unfathomable message on to the members of His flock, and I have answered Him yes. It is my God's infinite tedium, not mine, that I strive to share with you.

I cannot be faulted for the self-love you hear in my voice. That self-love is God's alone, for He taketh great pleasure in an audience, and in the airing of His thoughts before it. My seeming indifference to your flagging interest is, in truth, my Father's. For my Father rarely considers His listeners. And the tired rhetorical devices I use and tame shaggy-dog stories I tell are my Lord's, as well.

It is He who has chosen me to spin His pointless yarns. It is He who said, "Michael, read at length from the Holy Bible's more prosaic stretches, and follow it with a lecture that shall continue until you are tired and then begin again, one that you shall deliver in a voice with no tonal modulation." And I have answered his call. Verily, I am doing the Lord's droning."

Hi NL,

What I have done for God is learn how to help. Now I am ignored, just like God, and resented, just like God is, and hated for judging that people are insulting God by not turning around unto him with full purpose of heart.

Why do you assume others are not trying to help? Whether God is in the picture or not, it seems to me that lots of people are trying to add goodness to the world.

There are lots of people who are ignored in this world... it has nothing to do with God. ;-) Lots of people are resented and hated, and it has nothing to do with God.

I don't get the impression anyone resents or hates you; I just think you are one of many, many men who claim to know the mind of God.

Think of it this way... do you believe all the other men who claim to speak for God? Or who claim they know the mind of God? Or who claim they are in communication with God? Do you typically ignore them, or many dismiss?

I think many of us here group all the self proclaimed prophets into one category.

Compared to your pointless dribble that always says the same disinformation against me I am Ricochet Rabbit, Bing, Bing, Bing.

Original Theology
Original Art
Original Revelations that are RELEVANT today,
The ONLY living source of truth to help people actually accomplish the real gospel of Jesus Christ, having done it myself. Nobody else can touch that or even get close to it. BING BING BING

And so sad that you could not care less. That proves you a God hater.

What do you got?.....a couple of vivid dreams, so you say. No insights ever posted. Drone on slander boy, drone on.

Oh Geeze, man wipe your chin, see it there, no on the other chin under the third one.

Darn,
I was so damn sure it was from Kodachrome Basin SP, which has a very similar monolith to that one.
Thanks for correcting me.

Right, you do realize that the warnings to the world include warnings to you too right? I am wary of those who call calamities on others with no sense of righteous fear for themselves.

And so sad that you could not care less. That proves you a God hater.

Except for the loving him thing.

I'll match your rock against my dreams and raise you a vision.

Hello Mr Pot, I'm Mr Kettle.

Oh Geeze, man wipe your chin, see it there, no on the other chin under the third one.

Ahhh, insulting my physical fitness. Tell you what, I'll bet your apostolic calling against my car in a race to climb the Apocalrock. You willing, old man? I've been rock climbing twice this month; sure you want to do this? :)

I did not originate as a self proclaimed prophet. Two Elders who witnessed the event and results of my having been wrought upon by the power of the Holy Ghost to preach a parable to help convert a couple declared in testimony meeting later that I would be an apostle.

Two more returned missionaries in Valley View Singles Ward on Evergreen Avenue in East Millcreek, Utah witnessed to me that they knew my prophecy in fast and testimony meeting was true and of God and that I was truly wrought upon by the power of the Holy Ghost to speak while testifying in the name of Jesus Christ.

Beside my weekly uncanny (their words not mine, they did not fail to notice) unfolding of LDS scripture, the LDS Church had to overt witnesses that they could have picked up and an honored me with some degree of respect for the gift and power that was manifested by me. They might have kept themselves a valid church. Oh, well. Shucks. The day of the Gentile is over.

Well, actually, either means the same, but thanks.

I weary of any fellow who thinks Dr Scratch qualifies for status.

"Surely he knows that DCP, The Nehor, Lamanite, and other key apologists..." -Scratch clarifying my status in apologetics

Truly sorry to all, I have been getting out of line with the immaturity crap.

Yesterday I was dealing with a fellow who was again so skillfully inciting hate that I wanted to rid myself of it and fixed my emotions to manifest no anger or resentment. Just that much determined resistance and bam! a portal to maturity opened. I did not think I was such a kid but I truly have been. 58 year old seven year old. That actually does explain a lot. How embarrassing. But I have noticed already anger is coming under subjection. Cool.

Must be getting tooled up for the next turn.

How many of these people support you now? Have they joined in following you? Why are you looking for support amongst members in an apostate faith anyways?
