How would you know?

Didn't you read the part above about discerning spirits?

I don't pray for answers. God is not an oracle, or some sort of divine, slot machine, where you put some money in and out pops a little card with your fortune written on it (well, maybe he is for you).

I pray that I may have the courage and strength to keep to Christ's word and not fall for every superficial, glitzy teaching that comes along, courtesy of your paymaster.

Actually, I am quite adept at channelling.

Is anybody there?

Hissssssssssssssssssssssssss!
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Yes, Elvis here. Howdy, y'all!

Is there anything you would like to tell us, Elvis?

Ahem, well ...

You look like an angel ...


Walk like an angel ....


Talk like an angel ...

But I got wise ....

You're the d**** in disguise,

Oh yes you are,

D**** in disguise.

Thank you very much.

LOL, yes. And I'm very good at finding appropriate responses to channelled entities like you. See Post 38.

God: "Cantando, I am God. I hear and I grant you courage and strength to keep to Christ's word."

Cantando: "Begone, imposter!"

God: "Huh?"

LOL ... Cantando, from the way you speak, one would imagine that it is I, not you, who has spent a lot of time messing around with oujia boards.

Me, I have never touched one of those things in my life.

Either way, those things and people don't resonate with me at all. While it's possible there could be a mischievous entity I don't have any strong evidence for it.

Again, the message is important also. Seth is teaching LOA. That's about it. To suspect malice I would need some logical model as to why. What would an entity gain and also at the same time have a negative effect on me from LOA? Any answer to that question I have falls into the "probabilistically way more unlikely than Seth simply being a Metaphysical teacher" category. In other words - a conspiracy theory.

lol, sounds like a 50 y old fat guy in a chatroom pretending to be a hot chick with double d's.
