If you're so afraid of your imagination that you stifle it, how are you going to know God? How can you imagine heaven?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Why are you scared to dream of god when it's salvation that you want?
I have been afraid all my life that I am going to die. All my life it has been stuffed in my imagination.
The problem with people who are afraid of imagination, of fantasy, is that their world becomes so narrow that I don't see how they can imagine beyond what their senses can verify. We know from science that there are entire worlds that our senses can't verify.
Let your hope of heaven master your fear of death.
We fear to know the fearsome and unsavory aspects of ourselves, but we fear even more to know the godlike in ourselves.
Imagination is the eye of the soul.
If God is God, we can't be afraid of what we can learn.
I know nothing of God or the Devil. I have never seen a vision nor learned a secret that would damn or save my soul.
God is only a great imaginative experience.
Imagination is the voice of daring. If there is anything Godlike about God it is that. He dared to imagine everything.
