I refuse nothing. Explain to me, simply and clearly, how I can have a personal experience with your god. But I expect two things from that explanation. Firstly, I want your guarantee that if I follow your words exactly, I will get that personal experience. And secondly, I want that explanation to be complete when you post it - I have no intention of wasting my time following instructions, only to be told later that "oh, you should have been doing this as well".
Do you really want Him in your life? If not this is an exercise in futility. Also I am charged to assist you in this process and am making myself available to you. If you are serious PM and I will give you my personal email.
First of all - Admit that you are a sinner.
We all have sin in our hearts. We all were born with sin. We were born under the power of sin's control.
Romans 3:23 "
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God
."
Secondly- Understand that you deserve death for your sin.
Sin has an ending. It results in death. We all face physical death, which is a result of sin. But a worse death is spiritual death that alienates us from God, and will last for all eternity. The Bible teaches that there is a place called the Lake of Fire where lost people will be in torment forever. It is the place where people who are spiritually dead will remain.
Romans 6:23a "...
The wages of sin is death..."

ThirdlyAsk God to forgive you and save you.
Salvation is a free gift from God to you! You can't earn this gift, but you must reach out and receive it.
Romans 6:23b "...
But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Forth-Give your life to God... His love poured out in Jesus on the cross is your only hope to have forgiveness and change. His love bought you out of being a slave to sin. His love is what saves you -- not religion, or church membership. God loves you! This was the hardest and most diffcult thing for me to understand.
When Jesus died on the cross He paid sin's penalty. He paid the price for all sin, and when He took all the sins of the world on Himself on the cross, He bought us out of slavery to sin and death! The only condition is that we believe in Him and what He has done for us, understanding that we are now joined with Him, and that He is our life. He did all this because He loved us and gave Himself for us!
Romans 5:8, "
God demonstrates His own love for us, in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us!"
Fifth out to God in the name of Jesus!
Romans 10:13 "
Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved!"
Sixth you know that God is knocking on your heart's door, ask Him to come into your heart. Romans 10:9,10 "...
If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you shall be saved; for with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation."
-
Is Jesus knocking on your heart's door?Jesus said,
Revelation 3:20a "
Behold I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him..." Believe in Him.
Ask Him to come in to your heart by faith,
and ask Him to reveal Himself to you.
Open the Bible to the Gospel of John and read what God says about Jesus,
about you, and about being born again.
God will help you
You need to look for a local church where God's word is preached.
Again I am charged with helpping you understand God if you are seriously and seeking Him he will respond. My prayer right now is that all that read this begin to develop a stirring for God's work in their heart. Lord as they read your word let truth be seen. Father for those that read this and have hardened hearts toward you I pray that you begin to break the Bonds NOW in Jesus name. For those continuing to refuse you lord begin to humble them to in their flesh and plant the seeds of salivation in their hearts. .
Aren't you hungry to know the truth?
