You May Not Need God Today, But You Will - Get Saved Today, Is What He Had to Say

One technique often attempted and used by those who have found the fear of their invisible friend (aka God) to recruit people into their superstitious cult is to witness to the potential newcomer a particular experience of when the religious individual was down and out, with nowhere to turn, and they turned to god and everything worked out for them.
Thus, they reasoned there really is a god, and he can help others too, so I must go out and tell them.
Then they go out and worship, proselytize, and harass non-believers into conversion.
Their best hopes are to find someone who is so beaten down, so stressed out, and so far at the end of their rope that they'll try anything.
Their brains have no bandwidth left due to the stress and they are easy prey.
When they encounter someone who is happily living their life and doing fine, they realize conversion is going to be tough, so they attempt something like this; "well, you might not need him today, but some day you will.
" So, they tell their victim to keep their number, name, email address, or social networking contact, because you'll definitely need them soon! Still, I am unconvinced that it is a "need" issue with the "God concept" indeed, I suppose there have been times when you or I may have "needed" a boost, when adversity knocks you into the dirt out of the blue, these anomalies happen; "good things happen to good people, bad things happen to bad people, and the other crap, well that just happens to everyone occasionally.
" Turning to, or in this case inventing an invisible friend is a dangerous mind trap, imprisoning the victim within their own mind.
Rather, the target victim of this psychological maneuver would be better off to realize that hardships come with life, that we must accept that, and if you have to go through hell to get to where you are going, as Winston Churchill once said; don't stop.
You see, it is not a "need" debate the way I see it, and as nice as the concept seems to be, it just doesn't exist, and I am not to put my life up to human superstition, nor should you.
Rather you and I should trust self, find a way, and deal with it.
The more adversity you go through the better you realize that you'll make it out the other side, perhaps not unscathed, but survived nevertheless.
Trust self, adversity builds character, don't run from it, know this reality and use it to your advantage.
So, next time someone tries this recruitment technique to coax you into their religion, consider all this and think on it.
