my thoughts:
for whatever reason, God has chosen to work His will thru man. The Bible is consistent in this message. He created an intelligent design in all that He did.....a design which could function with utmost precision. Our human body is one such design as is the design of our universe. Slowly, science is determining how the body functions as well as the universe. I'm okay with acknowledging that man can influence this design with IMing and "build his own house". I am not aware of the specific Bible verse but there is one that says something to the effect that man builds his own house but God is the builder of them all. Heck, He even says that man can ask, seek and knock and whatever he asks shall be given to him. Sounds like God is granting us permission to IM. He then says that faith (belief that what is not seen will come to past) is a necessary component to be coupled with "works" (deeds or action). Pavlina makes mention in another post that action is necessary. Seems to me that religion (Christianity) and Iming are not only compatible but are one in the same thing when put into practice.......the one difference is the Christian's acknowledgement that God has created the means for Iming to work as it does.
