Calling God a creator is limiting God and time is an illusion

Of course I am different. I believe in the Bible.
When the Bible says God is infinite, is that absolute truth?
Jesus is here but not here in the flesh to actually chime in on your condescendingness.
You have evaded and dodged what I have said about your experience being here and now and your I amness with nonsense. I don't care about the I AM movement, I care about your actual I AM. You say the words I AM every single day. Your experience is it is always here and now despite the time or location. That's all I'm interested in. If you do not have the courage to go there, it's better we move on.
No because even the word 'infinite' is definitive. Absolute truth is nondual, it cannot be put into words. Language and mind are dualistic by default because they are limited. What does the finite know about the infinite? Nothing. At best words serve as pointers. Truth cannot be mass distributed or monopolized. Each person has to ultimately recognize it for themselves. Even everything I have said falls short
Even though you're different because you read the Bible, that's only on the surface. Have you ever wondered what it is that makes all of us one? I liken that to beingness. The being of a tree is the same as my being and your being. Everyone wants to be special, but no one wants to see what makes all of us one

Nothing I have written is "anti-biblical."
That is slander.
Since you think what I wrote is anti-biblical--name one thing, and I will show you it is not.

Yes....but what does nondual point to? For example awareness has no shape or form but it is present.
What is the difference between being aware of your hand and being aware of awareness?

Rudometkin, try this experiment out.
Are you aware of what's behind you?
Are you aware of the sensation in your foot?
Are you aware of the sun?
Now the last question. Are you aware?
What do you have to do with your attention in the first three questions vs. the fourth question when you answer 'yes' to each one?

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Romans 1:28-32

Lies and falsehood across the board.
You have no understanding yet you're here speaking as one who is knowledgeable in all things.
You're not here to learn anything, nor to discuss scripture, you're here to experience an imagined scenario of being the authority on a matter so as to stroke your ego. That experience is evading you with every post.

Really? The Bible is still the best-selling book there has ever been to this very day. That's a pretty massive distribution.
There is no such thing as Personal Truth. There is only Absolute Truth.
Again, "What is your Truth?" is a New Age concept that leads to the dismissal of all Absolute Truths by the ignorant masses.
God is an Absolute Truth and all of His Laws are Absolute Truths. Thank goodness you, and all who agree with you, will discover that for certain one day. And the Bible tells us that all True Believers will be there to witness it.
Praise the Lord.
Pot calling the kettle black.
Being a fanatic doesn't make you a Christian and you are conflating your fanaticism with being Christian. There are people out there who are more Christian than those who proclaim they are. If you think being a Christian means reading the Bible or following Jesus, then you have completely missed Jesus' teaching.
Think bigger.
Beliefs automatically come with doubt. You believe because you really don't know so a belief is used to deal with the discomfort of not knowing. To really know God, you must get off that high horse and realize you don't know anything at all.
You ignore that with which you know those beliefs and anything else for that matter.

You just altered this post without any stamp of it being edited. That proves that you are not a normal member here. You are a shill that can manipulate the inner workings of this forum.
Before you edited, your post read

You've been reported multiple times now and aren't being dealt with for a very specific reason.
May God deal with you as you deserve in His eyes.
Yeah I edited it because the post was all over the place so I deleted and started fresh. It was 'better to be a non christian thsn a hypocritical one'. And that's alright, I don't plan on sticking around anyways.
I have said enough things that have caused you to become defensive and triggered. It couldn't be more evident. May you actually find God in your life and learn what being a Christian really means.

A non Christian is more Christian than a hypocritical self proclaimed Christian.
There are people in corners of the earth who have no access to scripture or know anything about Jesus. Does that mean they are non Christian and will burn for eternity?
Does going to a church on Sunday automatically make you a Christian or is church really everywhere you go?
Would Jesus rather have a hypocritical follower or someone who doesn't proclaim they follow Jesus but yet they express Jesus' teachings in day to day life?
