Of course any BORN OF GOD,Will always look up to GOD ,We will be LED by HIm.And always bow before HIm,And worship HiM .BECAUSE we LOVE HIM.Not because we must or fear ,HE will hurt us.BUT BECAUSE WE KNOW HIM AS FATHER AND FRIEND.
NO I DID NOT SAY WE SHOULD NOT FEAR GOD!
I SAID ONCE WE KNOW HIM WELL!WE WILL NOT FEAR HIM,BUT LOVE HIM MORE THAN LIFE ITS SELF.
But as you know?The begining of wisdom is the fear of the LORD.Because at that time?You see the great power of GOD .and know?HE can destory anything and anyone!
LOVING THE LORD.is ?Because you see HIm for who and what HE is.
Because you understand all that hE has done for You and all HE is doing for YOU and How Much HE gave up for you.And understanding HE suffers ,when you do evil.It hurts HIm to see you do evil or hurt your self.HE IS LOVE.
PURE LOVE.LOVE SO GREAT?I DO NOT THINK ANY OF US TRULY SEE IT ALL.
But HE is HOLY and has rules in HIS KINGDOm.Rules that HE will not breake.One rule is?HE cannot allow sin in HIS KINGDOM.That is why?MAN KIND MUST DIE.sin is a killer ,it destorys everything.as we see.even the eartyh its self is suffering from sin.it is being destoryed even now.slowly dying.falling apart.in time?There would be no earth.But of course before that?He will destory it HIMSELF and create a new one!

THE MIN OR SOUL[same ]is trained for the things of this world.and we know the things of GOD are opposit the things of this world.With the world thing we could not serve GOD!
Because we do not live by sight.We live by FAITH .FAITH ,that every WORD in the bible is true.FAITH ,that ,GOD HIM SELF WILL TEACH US!
FAITH TO RECIEVE ,ALL THE GIFTS AND SPIRITUAL THINGS ,HE HAS PROMISED US!
And there is many ,that few experiance or even know are real!
of course we read them,but many say?they were for before or they don"t need them or some other silly thing.As if GOD CHANGED OVER NIGHT!
The problem as I see it?We do not have a relationship with the HOLY GHOST!We don"t talk with HIm or HEAR HIM TALK.
JESUS CHRIST GAVE HIMTO US.SO WE COULD LEARN AND BE USED,AND THAT HE WOULD LIFT UP JESUS CHRIST IN OUR LIFES.YOU DO UNDERSTAND?THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS POWER!WE ARE PART OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD.SO SHOULD HAVE POWER!
But few do???
BECAUSE THEY DO NOT ACCEPT GODS WORD AS TRUTH!
unbelief is alive and well.SADLEY!
MEN FOLLOWING MEN is the problem.People are not following JESUS CHRIST!BECAUSE IF WE DID?HE SAID GREATER WORKS WILL THESE DO!
WE SHOULD BE RAISIING THE DEAD HEALING THE SICK ,CASTING OUT DEMONS.BRING LIGHT INTO DARKNESS .THE WORLD SHOULD KNOW JESUS CHRIST,Look what a few did in the 1st church.Where are the mighty people of GOD TODAY???
WE instead argue the scripture,seperate ourselves.Each thinking he is right,all others wrong.looking for only those who will agree with us!
How silly we are!Who is the HOLY GHOST LEADING?2Co 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Rom 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
BLESS YOU,MAY THE HOLY GHOST OPEN YOUR HEAT TO BE FILLED WITH GOD LOVE AND TRUTH.MAY YOU KNOW THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST IN YOUR LIFE.MAY YOU LEAD MANY INTO THE KINGDOM AND PLANT MANY SEEDS OF TRUTH.IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD!

This is one of the best explanations of why God allows pain and suffering that I have seen. It's an explanation other people will understand.

A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about so many things and various subjects.

When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: "I don't believe that God exists."

"Why do you say that?" asked the customer.

"Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn't exist. Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain. I can't imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things."

The customer thought for a moment, but didn't respond because he didn't want to start an argument. The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and unkempt.

The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber: "You know what? Barbers do not exist."

"How can you say that?" asked the surprised barber. "I am here, and I am a barber. And I just worked on you!"

"No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside."

"Ah, but barbers DO exist! What happens is, people do not come to me."

"Exactly!"- affirmed the customer. "That's the point! God, too, DOES exist! What happens, is, people don't go to Him and do not look for Him. That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."
