Janet, God loves you all the same as an agnostic. Experience God by reading New Testament Bible and finding a good Bible believing or evangelical church in your area. E.g Elim, RCCG, Holy Trinity, Hill Song, an Anglican Church. Christianity will begin to make sense to you in Jesus Name.
I don't understand Christianity AT all. It simply doesn't make sense to me. I don't particularly like church. But that doesn't mean that I go around doing bad things. Someone can be an atheist and still be a good person. I call myself an agnostic.
I love this song because it shows how Jesus brings salvation to mankind. Only in the mentioning of the name JESUS can all the power of darkness bow. More of Jesus will bring light into the heart, whereby the right steps in the right direction is taken. More of Jesus in the heart and NOT in the head, will guide leaders of all nations to do the right thing by their subjects. More of Jesus will counsel world leaders to seek the reliability of safety of their respective nation with LOVE and UNDERSTANDING. More of JESUS will make us to dwell together in PEACE and harmony rarher than war and terrorism. More of JESUS will point us towards ETERNITY in heaven, where we shall ever dwell with GOD the father, SON and the HOLY SPIRIT. Amen.
