I once spent several years daily immersed in an online Atheist forum. It was His idea, not mine. It was an amazing experience and one He intended for me to have. I was given favor with the sites owner, a former Christian, or so he claimed. Whereas most Theists lasted a few meager days at best, or are banned from the site, i however, spent years amongst them, yet not I. I was the necessary nemesis for the daily drama, the fodder, I helped in the ratings department. They called me every vile name in the book, unceasingly. I never retaliated, never reviled, never returned the favor, only the other cheek. He gave me such a love for them, His love for them. I hurt for them. They hated me so, they loved me so, it was so bizarre. I saw things from His perspective, how the world despises Him, hates Him so and without a cause. I saw that every thing Jesus said about the darkness was true, that we have no light of our own, that as the Psalmist said in 36:9, its only by His light that we see in any light (truth) at all, that the Light Himself is the only means by which we may take hold of the wings of the dawn (Ps 139:9) and escape the lair, the liars darkened den. Pride was everywhere, it was his domain. He proudly paraded his harsh and accusing, lying tongue all over the site, it was hideously on display every day. Still, somehow the Light made His way in, spoke the truth to them, loved them anyway. These were not just others, but My brothers, though they knew it not, were in the dark about who their true Father really was--Light.
