yeah, had a thorough read through of everything. gonna need to for a sensitive topic like this. its like threading a needle sometimes because of how people will react to particular responses :S
i for one also have the train of thought that if you're only 'surviving', thats not gonna keep up forever the way it is. at a logical perspective, i'd figured that lots of people would deduce this already.
@sonidow
just to clarify my own perspective/position in case of misunderstanding from my first response (which there seem to be for me), heres what my position was. i'm only doing this so as to clear up any confusion or whatever potential crap that could happen (keep the thread from going to flame wars as well :S). gonna be as short as possible cos i needa sleep.
i totally agree about what youre saying that if god didnt first love and that we needed to prove it, it would make the whole message pointless. my background to my perspective is that, imagine if we were just too weak to even do something, someone has to help. i dont see it as superiority, and thats where i think the misunderstanding (my lack of explanation maybe) occurs. to me i see it as a reaction and and its more humbling instead. when i realise what an idiot i am and that i'm still loved by someone despite what i do. an honest, heartfelt and response is to love back because its just a natural response. thats pretty much where im coming from. hope this doesnt make things any more complicated :S
