How can you Worship

Such a mean God?

 

The 1 minute video clip below begs these three short questions:

 

1. Do you see him?
2. Do you know him?
3. Do you love him?

 

Now, if you can’t see him, how can you know him?

If you don’t know him, how can you know you love him?

 

.
AND, if you have never learned His Language:
.

How can you even begin to communicate with Him?

 

The first actor in the video below clearly shows that he has never seen God, nor has he ever known God, nor care to Know God, nor does he know anything about the love of God. As a Result: This man has the same problem that all atheists have, that all agnostics have, that all anti-Christian religionists have, and all idol worshiping people have, all around the earth.

 

It is not a new problem, but an ancient one.

 

Now check out the second actor’s response in the second half of this 1 minute video clip:

 

 

 

Do you know the Language of Heaven? 

Answer: It is Humility.

No One without True Heavenly Humility,

Can ever have any real communication with God.

 

Opinion Question: 

Do you think or feel the first actor above was speaking the language of Heavenly Humility?
