I also have a few other groups I created. One group is for Christians that deal with addictions are in their life no matter what they are. There are a few handicap right groups, a few health groups and one group made for talking about comic stuff and scary stuff. I even have a proboard made of that same name
I can see what we say goes right over your head. The problem is with your head, not what we say.

No the problem is with you guys assuming people are mentally ill cause they have a personally relationship with Christ and the holy spirit. I forgive you though.

Oh, OK I thought you kept posting that link because you wanted me to read something on there. I see now that it's just part of your signature.

I have it on there for any Christians that are on here that are on facebook that want a group to go hang out at.

No. Again, only those who claim to hear voices, see visions...or like one guy I saw posting a few weeks back...had a vivid dream about flying around in space that he was convinced was reality.
You can have your "personal" relationship with a dead guy you've never met if you want. But if you start claiming to hear God's voice directly in your head, you ought to expect most people to fear that you are experiencing some sort of abnormal mental event.

I get it, it's all good my friend. I just thought I was missing something...like you wanted me to read something on there based on this conversation.

My personal relationships are with living people not with people who have been dead for 2000 years.

to each his own. my wife and I both have a strong personally one on one relationship with Christ. we don't force our Faith on anyone. in fact we are both even Democrats and strongly believe in equal rights for all.

Good for you, what else can you do? If you're going to claim to hear God's voice, people are going to deny it of course. You're smart not to let it bother you when people give you guff about it.
I'm honestly not trying to rain on your parade. It's just when I hear people who 1) report serious problems like depression, anxiety, or suicidal thought and then 2) also report hearing voices...I simply can't be encouraging of it, no matter what the person believes.

personally my depression and anxiety have to do with fibromyalgia and other handicap issues I have had to over come in my 33 years of living. nothing to do with God. in fact God is one of the consent good things in my life besides my wonderful wife

That sucks man, sorry to hear it. I know someone who struggles with fibromyalgia...it's no joke.
Good for you, glad you have her!

Thanks. It's not. I don't even work anymore cause of it. I am just thankful what I have. I don't blame God for any of it. This was what I was handed in life. I learned to deal with it. I believe that illness happen cause of the genes in people's blood line. My mom has depression and anxiety really bad. My sister battles with her own depression. I deal with both like my mom. My grandma had fibro when she was alive. I got it from her. My wife's bi polar is because her parents have their own health issues that a lot like bi polar. Has nothing to do with God. It is just the hand we are dealt with.
Not all of us who hear voices, whether (what we claim to be) the Voices of God or other voices, cause either ourselves or other people harm.
