Wait, so you lost your faith already? That was quick.
Also man, you can't come in here calling everyone friend and speaking in jibberish about your spirit hiding from your flesh to become a spirit revealed through another spirit you happen to think is Jesus for whatever reason. The way you present yourself is also very typical and honestly taken as fake.
Sometimes if you present yourself like a normal person without talking in riddles of spirits, and calling everyone friend in the most a typical, phony christian manner possible, you would get a better response. From what I have seen of you, I think your a guy with an agenda, beyond that what you have seen is only what you have seen.

When i say faith and hope you have a different definition because you are not free from sin this is common none of us are free.although miracles such as the one i was blessed with allowed me to read the definition the entire structure changes no longer was there any need for support by uncertainty .

Good point, why God? Why not an angel, a plain old spirit, anything really?

Why not a delusion?

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Pretty much the gist of it. Makes one wonder sometimes as to why a person even bothers to make such a personal claim with full knoweledge that no one else can ever possibly acknowledge and validate, and then wholeheartedly expects them to take it all in at face value based on what is just said or written alone.

i make the claim because its true and now you know the truth everyone who reads my encounter will know the truth . The same way you know god ,you want to believe even thou you have not seen him. But i have seen gods spirit and those who believe in God continue on believing because god is real and alive. I am gods messenger not in words but in sight .I might be the only man alive that can say this other then the prophets who god chose.

Right...
I am really struggling to take this seriously though.
You're not a poe by any chance?

what is it that troubles you ask me if i can answer it i will.
I'm still interested in your story, but I hope you know that many people have (or claim to have) experiences and encounters with God. This is not new. However, you go on about John the Baptist and Christ....what is your point?
What message do you want to share besides "I saw God"? Do you think God was giving you some special revelation or was he just saying "Hi"?

First off I don't believe your claim in the slightest.
My initial conclusion would be that you are perhaps delusional, or at least it was until you claimed to be god's messenger. That was the final drop.
Hence my conclusion is that you are most likely a poe trying to pull someone's leg.
Of course, if you can back your claims up with evidence this would probably be the most significant event in human history, but it's not as if we're likely to take your word for it.
You're not saying anything, really.
So what is the message from God?
What do you mean 'the holy one is among us right now'?
You need to talk straight - a messanger without a message is merely another attention seeker.
The message is more important than the messanger, don't you know that? So quit making this about you and your ego and really make it about God - or as I asked before, did God just want to say 'Hi'?

No.
What you need to understand is "You gotta believe me, I saw it!" isn't enough. Eyewitness testimony is probably the least reliable form of evidence there is simply because of the way our brains are wired. We're susceptible to things like hallucinations, pareidolia, subjective validation, poor memory, and false memories (just to name a few).
There's also the possibility that the eyewitness may be lying or exaggerating.
Please understand that I'm not accusing you personally of anything. I'm simply explaining why your eyewitness account, intriguing though it may be, isn't enough to prove that you had a supernatural experience.

Hi Theopulos, have you yet considered that the experience was for your 'eyes' only and that it was intended as a catalyst for unfolding the deeper resources of your being in order to meet your goal.
Jesus taught that what was born of flesh is flesh and that which is born of spirit is spirit, and Heaven is only for that born of the spirit. Elsewhere he said that God is spirit and the time is coming when God will not be worshiped in the mountains or the temple, but in spirit as spirit.
So long as you are incarnate and talking about 'spirit' you've seen through your mortal eyes, then you are in effect exhibiting mere mortal limitations. When the spirit incarnate in your body can leave your body with the grace of On High, then your mission is near fulfillment.
