2 Chronicles 6:18

"But will God indeed dwell with mankind on the earth? Behold, heaven and the highest heaven cannot contain You; how much less this house which I have built.

I saw a meme that was re-shared Monday on Facebook that said something like this, “I’m not an atheist it’s just my concept of God is different from yours. Your God lives in the sky. My God lives in me.” Then the original person who shared the meme captioned a prose condemning people for leaving their seemingly warm homes to go to church and also following up under “pimping pastors.”

My spirit was immediately vexed. I asked myself, “Where did this person get this information from?"

This is a perfect example of how the enemy has people so wound up in SELF-deception that it’s not even funny anymore. From a very tender age (Read-Confessions of an Ex-Atheist), I myself knew that God does not live in the sky! Come on! You’ve got to be kidding me! This is what the devil is using to trip people up? Where God lives? Can anybody see how trivial this is?

Once my vexation subsided, I saw how misinformation almost always births this thing that deforms the spirit and it’s called PRIDE! God is omnipresent, meaning He’s everywhere always. In Genesis 1:6 it says God separated the water above and the water below by creating a vault, and He called that vault SKY. So, you mean to tell me He created the sky and then decided to jump in and live in it? Why would He do that? He created the sky for US. The sky was created for man! Not Him!

Moreover, when pride comes into full form it tends to distort and remold things to appease something else, REBELLION. You see, that person’s stance would suggest that God has some form of human need. How else would one explain making such a poor attempt of putting God in a place that we can see, in one locale that we can pinpoint? And this person’s caption, solidifies this further when they brought up the church.

The rebellious conglomerate would like to have nothing to do with the church for emotional reasons not for spiritual reasons, but they will often portray these reasons as such. My thing is, how do you know that this ‘God” in you is even THEE omniscient, OMNIPRESENT, omnipotent, GOD? How do you know that this “God” in you is none other than YOU, YOURSELF? Or worse, a friendly stronghold working for the devil? This leads me back to the word of God,

Romans 10:4,

“How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?”

Once again, the rebellious conglomerate would like to have nothing to do with the church because they don’t want their “God” to be checked or challenged. They don’t want anyone touching their MESS!

#Transparent Moment:  There have been cases where I’ve looked for every possibility for something to be off just to give me a reason not to be a part of it. All I needed was a SMALL piece of validation and, ‘Up! That’s it! I’m out!”

This is the mindset of the rebellious when it comes to church. They exhaust all angles to keep from going to the place that’s actually in place to examine the condition of their souls all the while their souls lay rotten and unintended. This is a grave tragedy.

The only part of this person’s caption I could readily agree with is the part where they mentioned they weren’t an atheist. CORRECT. Because…Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. 1 John 2:18

If ones definition of God is but a weak competition between a little god (“The God that lives in me”) and a blue God (“The God that lives in the sky") and then is endorsed by condemning the Hebrews 10:25 request to not give up the assembling of the saints as most have and stereotyping the pastor, could one really say that they even believe in Jesus? Any denial of Christ, is then the antichrist. Yet, what's really frightening about this is, the  person, and anyone else who thinks this way, doesn't even know what kind of agreement they're associating themselves with. Thus, I'm further encouraged to pray for this special type of unbeliever, who's not quite atheist but not quite pro-Christ.
