We have hosted websites for over 40 years and have just launched a new website called God's Words - containing what we believe are actual words from God that everyone has been given. The intent of the site is not to evangelize, no matter what you believe is true our purpose is to present for your consideration what we believe God would say, and has said, to all of us. We believe that when the words are read together with an open mind and heart the message is clear, the words mean exactly what they say. Our intent on the website is to present just the words of God with no additional comment or interpretation. If God exists, it is reasonable to believe that God speaks to each of us using plain language. You should listen to your heart and not to anyone who tells you they know what God really meant. Please read the words for yourself, visit https://Gods-words.com (There are similarly named websites, please be sure to include a hyphen '-' between 'Gods' and 'words' to reach our non-commercial website, also we do not use 'tracking cookies').

Like what is his ultimate goal .what the f is going on . He is pathetic and a control freak. He is in control of everything , like what the f is his agenda. He first hits you to hurt you , them he puts remedy in front of you. What does he wants. What is his agenda. This world is fake as f and smokes and mirrors. Like it's full of gaps and plot holes and logical fallacies . This world is running supernaturally .
Like it has a lot of fragmented and small narratives all working separately but as a whole they don't fix together . God is manually turning the cog imo and these small narratives don't fit together . They are like a broken mirror imo.
Like politics is fake and evolution is fake and there are many other things that are fake but they are there for the sake of show and a narrative . Like I said ,this world is full of small fragmented narratives that are irrational. So cringe . This world is a tradegy .

I’ve been thinking about the whole “who created God?” / “something can’t come from nothing” argument, and I actually think people accidentally cheat when they talk about “nothing.” Because when I say nothing, I mean literally nothing. No matter, no energy, no space, no time, no physics, no objects, no laws, no rules. Nothing. Not an empty universe, not black space, not some void sitting there for a trillion years. Literally nothing. And here’s what’s weird: if you say there’s a rule that “something cannot come from nothing,” then technically you don’t have nothing anymore. You have nothing + a rule. Because “cannot” is a restriction. So where exactly is that rule supposed to exist? It can’t be a law of physics because physics doesn’t exist. It can’t be a property of spacetime because spacetime doesn’t exist either. I think people picture nothing like an empty room where nothing happens, but an empty room is still something. It has space, it exists through time, physics works inside it, there’s cause and effect, etc. Actual nothing wouldn’t even have time. So asking “why didn’t nothing just stay nothing forever?” doesn’t really make sense, because there is no “forever.” There isn’t nothing → a billion years → still nothing → another billion years → still nothing, because there aren’t any years. There isn’t even a “before” in the normal sense. And I think that changes the “who created God?” question too, because I’m not saying nothing → God. I’m saying there eventually has to be some fundamental level of existence that doesn’t get its existence from some previous physical thing, otherwise you can just keep asking what caused the thing before it forever. Call it necessary existence, fundamental reality, God, whatever for now. The important part is that it wouldn’t have a previous physical cause because physical causation is already something that happens within reality. If time itself comes from this fundamental level, asking what happened “before” it might be like asking what’s north of the North Pole. There wasn’t nothing and then God showed up five minutes later. There is no five minutes. There is no prior state. And this is where my idea gets weirder lol. Imagine all the different ways reality COULD have been: different particles, different laws, different dimensions, different histories, different universes, whatever. Our universe is apparently one specific configuration out of this enormous conceptual space of possibilities. So the way I’ve been thinking about it is basically 0 = Null, meaning absolutely nothing external or pre-existing: no physical world, laws, time, etc. Then ∞ = Potential, meaning every logically possible way reality could be. Then 1 = Mind, meaning one unified thing capable of comprehending those possibilities. Then Creation, where one or more of those possibilities becomes actual or experienced reality. So basically 0 → ∞ → 1 → Creation. Null → Potential → Mind → Reality. And the reason I think “mind” is interesting here is because minds do something really frickin strange: they can represent things that aren’t physically there. I can imagine a blue sun right now, and there doesn’t need to literally be a giant blue sun floating in my bedroom for the information or concept of that blue sun to exist in my mind. So representation ≠ physical existence. And I think that matters, because if unrealized possibilities have any kind of existence at the deepest level of reality, maybe they don’t exist as physical objects somewhere. Maybe they exist as possibilities comprehended by some fundamental mind. And THAT starts sounding a hell of a lot like what people have historically meant by God. Not necessarily some old dude sitting in the clouds, but something more like the fundamental mind/reality that contains possibility and from which spacetime, causation, and physical reality derive. And it also gives an interesting answer to “what did God make the universe out of?” Maybe nothing. Not “nothing” as some kind of material, but in the sense that God wouldn’t need external building materials in the first place. It isn’t God + cosmic bricks = universe. It’s more like Mind + possibility = experienced reality. An author doesn’t need Middle-earth to physically exist somewhere before writing Lord of the Rings. The world can exist as information in the author’s mind before it exists on the page. I’m basically wondering whether reality could work through an infinitely more fundamental version of that relationship. And obviously I’m not saying this proves Christianity or Islam or Hinduism or any particular religion. It doesn’t even completely prove God by itself. My argument is way narrower than that. I’m saying absolute nothingness cannot contain a law forcing itself to remain nothing, because then it wouldn’t actually be absolute nothingness. And absolute nothingness can’t “remain” anything anyway because remaining requires time. So existence doesn’t necessarily need to be explained by something that happened BEFORE existence, because “before” and causation might themselves be features of the reality we’re trying to explain. Eventually you need some fundamental thing that doesn’t depend on a previous physical state. And IF that fundamental thing somehow comprehends the total space of possible realities and can instantiate one of them, then you’ve ended up with something possessing a bunch of properties traditionally associated with God: necessary existence, unity, existence outside or underneath spacetime, knowledge of possibility, and the ability to create reality. Which leads to the part I find funniest. Someone can ask “okay, but who created God?” and my response is basically: why are we assuming the rules governing created things also govern the thing those rules ultimately come from? Creation and physical causation might be relationships within reality. You can’t automatically take those relationships and apply them outside the system they’re describing. But then I can flip the question around: why does nothing need to exist? And if the answer is “because something can’t come from nothing,” okay… where did that rule exist when literally nothing existed? That’s basically my entire argument lol. I’m not claiming I just mathematically proved God in a text message. I’m saying I don’t think “nothing” gets to be treated as the obvious default state of reality, because the second you give nothing rules, duration, causality, necessity, or a requirement to stay nothing… you’re not talking about nothing anymore.

As a kid I was forced to attend church. I loved God. But, as I got older and wasnt forced to go, my beliefs changed. As life got worse, so did my mindset.
Hypocritically enough- I hated God but yet didn’t believe in him?
In 2020, I got laced with something that caused a continuous episode of disassociation. I fully believed I wasn’t a real person after this. I dealt with really bad intrusive thoughts, and a new fun thing that had started happening was my sleep paralysis episodes.
the first time was in 2021. My eyes opened and I couldn’t move. my boyfriend in the bathroom and I know he was because the lights were on in there.
At that moment nothing was around me, I just couldn’t move. I fully woke myself up after he came out and just let it slide. It started happening way more frequently.
People would be in the room. Having sex with me. I don’t mean just dreams. Actual sensations. Demons. It’s scary. Sometimes they’d disguise themselves. People I know. Beautiful strangers. But everytime I couldnt move. It had gotten so bad I stopped napping. Everytime I did something bad would happen.
2022 I had started to fill the hole in my life by having sex with a ton of people. I was so lonely- no family, hardly friends 22 year old woman navigating a new life in a new city. Loneliness took over. I didn’t care.
Last year, I met a girl. She was super religious. She talked about her beliefs so much and at that point I got irritated. I took the lords name in vain all the time and didn’t care. we talked about him. I told her I’d never submit to his teachings or the bible. Yet, I never called her stupid for how she felt.
I told her about my sleep paralysis. I told her how bad it would get. Marks on my body. Drained energy. It was like maybe once a week at this point. Little demon guys with long tails (pain from Hercules lookin ass) sitting on my stomach. People surrounding me. she was instantly concerned.
She told me to call out the God. “Say you rebuke in the name of Jesus Christ” and it’ll stop.
I don’t recall how long it took for me to do it, but I did. The first time I did it, she ended up being right. But I didnt say rebuke I said “I repent”
She told me to try again, call out for God and say you rebuke and yell at them to go away for God is protecting you.
Ngl, at the time I was like ?? Ok sure whatever
but I had the absolute worst case of sleep paralysis one night.
The room I grew up in, was red. I heard laughter around me. I screamed. It started as a dream and I ended up in my bed half asleep. The guy was on my chest and another person standing in my doorway. His face was disgusting. My bed has a metal piece behind me, it’s kind of like the headboard? I tried to grab my phone to call for help.
I called out for my mom first. My mom passed away in 2023. I had a dream about her about 2 years ago with her saying she’s happy and safe now and goodbye. I hadn’t dreamt of her since. so at this point I don’t know why my first instinct was to call for her. But I started to yell “I rebuke! In the name of Jesus I rebuke and I repent! I rebuke in the name of Jesus!” And this thing started to try to choke me. And then he disappeared.
Im still half asleep, okay? I look to my left with my eyes. in my room im sleeping in- a man is next to my bed sitting on a chair. he has like either white Or light blue clothes on. White hair. Just a man sitting next to me. He says “I’m here to protect you.” And then I fully woke up.
I don’t know who that was but I will tell you that def changed my life. however, even with that happening I wasnt a believer 100%.
I still struggled with things. Creepy shit online doesn’t help.
but, I met my boyfriend. I got drunk and told him my experiences. He gave me his cross necklace and told me it would keep me safe. I told him my story. We started reading the bible together. Praying before we eat.
I talk to God. Not a full prayer but a conversation.
I struggle with some sleep paralysis things?? Not like what I used to. One time my boyfriend and I were arguing and I woke up half asleep to him, the room white, and said he came to visit me and I needed to sleep so he came to lay next to me.
I woke up and he was gone. so I called him and asked him if he came over and he said no, because he has assumed I would’ve been upset if he did.
Another time my boyfriend left to work and about 10 minutes later (I know this because I checked the phone as soon as I fully woke up) he came back to the house. I was half asleep trying to wake myself up but my “boyfriend“ said “babe you need to wake yourself up now.” And when I called him he said he didn’t come back after he left.
I will continue to believe. I am not a Christian. not a catholic. just a person trying to maintain a relationship with Jesus Christ.
Thank you.

Does God manifest His love in the animal world too?
https://youtu.be/fM_gxhNUczQ&t=3s
In this study, I use the bible-focused allegory shared earlier, based on the real-life story of 2 orphaned tigers who grew up together, then separated and eventually re-united. Do watch the video starting at the relevant point provided in the link above for possible answers to the question and feel free to share your thoughts, God bless!

Dear god,
Please remember me as a loving creature. I want only but love and unity with you. I “should be selfless, no identity”
I take for granted my gifts only because I think I fail to meet the gratitude capabilities, though I try, just saying doesn’t feel enough.
I’m a super chimp with a complex mind with urges and instincts that pull me away from you but even through this non stop failure and dis recognition of my blessings please. Remember me in the next time as the love seeker and as the boy I came into this world as.

Does anyone else feel like they’ve been in survival mode their entire life, and now you’re just completely empty?
I’m just wandering tonight, and I need to know if anyone else out there feels the way I do.
I am so exhausted, tired, burned out, and broken. My whole life has felt like survival mode—from the time I was a kid all the way into adulthood. When you spend decades just trying to keep your head above water, you eventually run out of fuel. I’ve tried to build things, taking massive risks, and I've watched four or five businesses fail. Every time you take a hit like that, it knocks the wind out of you. And on top of the big failures, I carry the shame of the little things—lying about dumb stuff out of pure defense, just trying to protect myself when I felt cornered.
What hurts the most right now is the silence. I’ve begged God to come into my life. I go to church. I pray. I sit in the quiet at night and pray, but I don't feel anything. Just numbness. Total emptiness.
You see all these people online or at church who talk about how God came to them, how they felt an actual shift, how they changed and are so genuinely happy now. And I look at them and wonder: What is wrong with me? Why don't I feel it?
I feel like I’ve hit rock bottom, and honestly, sometimes it feels even deeper than that. Like I'm at the bottom of a well just looking up at a tiny circle of light.
I’m crying out for help tonight. If you’ve ever felt this bone-deep exhaustion, or felt like your faith feels like talking to a brick wall because you're just too tired to feel, please tell me I'm not the only one

I’m at a point in my life where I feel so lost and I want to point myself in the right direction. I know I can only do that with God but what steps should I do to get closer with him? I grew up in a religious household and would go to church every Sunday but that stoped when I was a teenager so I sort of lost my relationship with him. I used to be so close with him, I got my first communion and would pray every night but then I started to question my faith when I was a teenager.
A major event happened in my life where I felt hopeless but the Lord saved me. That event brought back my faith in God but the only thing is, I never felt as if I was close with him after and I really need that right now. I’m going through a tough time and I need some spiritual guidance from God to help heal myself. I pray but I want to do more and build my relationship to where I feel loved again.
I know only God can help me find true happiness but how do I start?

I am wondering if I deserved the judgment I got.
So when I was attending a church there was a lot of dating drama. And then I got judgment because I supposedly had too many refreshments.
I guess I could have handled the situation with the guy more delicately, but I felt like he was being somewhat vindictive.
I pray to God and ask if I deserved to be bullied. I ask God if I deserved more help or if I deserved to go hungry. I ask God if I was foolish to expect help from the church.
Do any of my experiences resonate with people on here?
