'"Two-thirds of American Internet users surf the web for spiritual purposes."' (Rob Moll, Christianity Today)

"God created computers for missions. He just happens to let the rest of the world use them." (Anonymous)

''Since computer technology is here to stay, retreat from it seems neither required nor appropriate... 'There comes a time when the [body] of Jesus Christ has to be bold enough to lay claim to a new medium.' Claiming a new medium, though, goes beyond just mere use of the medium. It involves understanding how the medium works." (Michael J. Vlach)

What they are really looking for is the living word connecting to the written word = power and life more abundantly. (Rhema connecting to Logos)

ILove, I agree that's a biggie, as well as a multitude of other things.

"Spiritual" covers a ton of things/questions, not all of them even concern God but still, I think 2/3 is great, but it shouldn't surprise us. I'd guess, and I could definitely be wrong, but the very basic reasons of that high number may be because we all know we will die and if there is something out there that can give us an alternative to what is often thought of as a "for all we know, we die when we did", they would very much like to find it.
 
What they are looking for and what I am calling for is for GOD to do a miracle. They don't know it but the internet may very well be that wilderness from out of which will flow a river. It will burst out from the dry places and may be the object of prophecy.

The wilderness brings with it the idea of a place of scorched earth. It's not fit for habitation. There is no milk, no cows can live there and no nourishment to be found in the wilderness. Wild beasts are there. We call them trolls and they have taken their mockery and destructive skills to an art form. There is no honey to be found because that would require pleasing plants and flowers and stuff. It's barren. Nearly lifeless and the only water to be found would be from under a rock somewhere.

There is thirst and I have heard of a vision given where people have turned over rocks and then taken what they found to their mouth in effort to suck the moisture from the creepy things. Is that not what porn is? Look at the nature of it. People are so starved for any semblance of affection so much that they go and pretend that's what love is. They look for any meager satisfaction they can find even if they have to pay for it with their very lives.

God will not allow us to be tested beyond endurance and I would challenge one and all to open their eyes to the possibility that we are that water. We have that same living waters now flowing from us, from our very belly. The Holy Spirit is that water.

Blessings to you. Your signature is true: "Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life..."
 
The promises of God through Hosea are the bridal train:
I will bring her into the wilderness, and will speak to her heart; and I will give her her vineyards from thence (Hosea 2:14, 15)
Look to the meaning of ISHI and BAALI (Husband and Lord).

Especially Hosea 2:19-20
I need to be betrothed in faithfulness. He will do it or it won't be done. I'm not able (without Him).

But please do not rebuke me for rightly seeing the ALLEGORY. The rebuke may fall on deaf ears. I am trying as hard as I might to listen to the song of the turtledove Song of Solomon 12:2 where FLOWERS APPEAR on the EARTH.
