I really don't see the difference between the two, but I still need to think about it. Having never questioned there being a God, I don't know what that feels like.
We are such flawed people, I can't blame that on God. Mainly, because I've been in enough prayer meetings, had many of my own, to know that when your heart lines up (humbled) toward God, we are very good people toward each other. Too bad we don't live in a perpetual state of prayer.
The worst experience in the world is to bump heads with a Christian full of hateful pride. It's actually like meeting a murder, IMO. Just my observation.
I remember Nona Freeman saying that she walked into a church and was astonished by what she felt. She said, "God! What is this?!" He responded, "Perfect unity". How interesting, at her age, and everywhere she has gone to teach and preach, she didn't feel that very often.
I try to read my Bible through every year. Some years I only read the NT. Last year I read both OT and NT. For the first time on reading the OT, I kept thinking, "Good grief people! Get your act together!". It was never God's fault these people were selfish and stupid.
