All I can give you is my word, I've been in threatening situations for this reason and I faced them with faith that God would be with me and deliver me and he has everytime

I do have to say.
Ok god told Adam and Eve that they could do anything within the garden of eden but with one exception being that they could not take any apples Apples hey? Red ones or green ones? In any case it may have been a durian, no one knows what the fruit wasfrom the tree of knowledge. The fruit was eaten therefore the consequences were put into effect.
You obviously cannot see the metaphor.
Firstly god asks you to trust him, He does? when? why does god need trust? Actually, why does God need to ask for anything?they never trusted him and had no faith in his word despite being warned of the consequences and even knowing that god existed.
God is a man A hormonal young man with anger management issues, and an ego to boot.of his word, therefore if he did not deliver his word he would be deceiving you.
This is also an example of how we have free will and our actions have consequences for ourselves and everyone else.
I am just pointing this fact out not because of my religious stance which may surprise some, I would be surprised if you were orthodox christian.but because its a pretty easy thing to see if you read the the very thing you are talking about. It is a metaphor.

I am a christian and am called by the God and Father of Jesus Christ to lead a movement to make telepathy known in this nation.

I am a Christian, but I'm sorry to say you may need help. Schizophrenia is real. It would be wrong to encourage you and to not suggest you seek some help.
If you belonged to a political party or a social club that was tied to as much bigotry, misogyny, homophobia, violence and sheer ignorance as religion is, you'd resign in protest. To do otherwise is to be an enabler, a Mafia wife, with the true devils of extremism that draw their legitimacy from the billions of their fellow travellers. lf the world does come to an end here or wherever, or if it limps into the future, decimated by the effects of a religion-inspired nuclear terrorism, let's remember what the real problem was: That we learned how to precipitate mass death before we got past the neurological disorder of wishing for it.
That's it. Grow up or die
Religion is dangerous because it allows human beings who don't have all the answers to think that they do. Most people would think it's wonderful when someone says, 'I'm willing Lord, I'll do whatever you want me to do.' Except that since there are no gods actually talking to us, that void is filled in by people with their own corruptions and limitations and agendas.

Exactly, its , its! lunacy!!! its its mind boggling to the ppl who "get it". Remember, at one point ppl believed this earth was flat and they had "proof". Religion is another mistake that unfortunatly has stuck around too long. Can you imagine how much better this world would be without religious wars? Crusade: religions war, Jihad: religious war. War on terror: Religious war, its "I BELIEVE THIS, YOU BELIEVE THAT, IM GOIN TO KILL YOU!!"

There is nothing to hard for God. Will you sit there while a friend is being abused in front of you by others using telepathy to distort his, or will you help this person in need?
If you will help others God is saying he will protect you.
He also says, when we are doing this to 'stay together'
I'm not an optimist, I'm not a pessimist.. I'm a realist
