The Reviews about I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For (page 3/ 12)
------ performed by U2
hey theresa | Reviewer: kt | 3/13/09
hey theresa- what the...? i also same here just for lyrics. i'm a christian,a true christian, i believe in one God and only one way to God, and that it's Jesus. i believe in solo scriptura and i'm all for a pure gospel without mixture... but seriously, why are you YELLING doctrine at these poor people?? a careful read of the Scripture you seem to truly love so much would reveal that Jesus only got hostile with ONE set of people: the religious hypocrites of his day. the "sinners"- the unbelieving, the carnal, the prostitutes, the cheating tax collectors, the blue-collar fisherman, curious Jews and Greek intellectuals, the openminded thinkers who were coming up empty in their search for truth- these were the people he spent his time with, healed their sick, raised their dead, fed them when they came to him in droves. it was his powerful authority and total innocence (do we ever see these two things together?) that drew them, it was righteousness and LOVE combined that made him winsome to the point of salvation. His kindness led them to repentance... the only people he is ever recorded to have said a harsh word to were the Pharisees and Sadducees, who spent so much time focusing on outward religiosity that they missed the fact that they,u too, were dead inside and needed a savior. they lorded their so-called spiritual insights, rules and regs over people because they were power-hungry. Jesus couldn't stand it, bc it was a total misrepresentation of true right standing with God. but everyone else, Jesus walked with,talked with, ate with, calculatedly inserted himself into their lives so as to change them with His love. so please, please, PLEASE stop doing what Jesus didn't do- scream at people about their sin. sin is real, yes, the world is deceived, yes: Jesus is the answer, yes, but he's a Person, for crying out loud, not a concept to be argued ad nasuem. don't go cutting off people's ears defending him: Peter did that, and Jesus in turn touched the man's bloodied head, and healed him. So much power, and yet so gentle- the only time Jesus flexes His muscle is to save... He will come again to judge, but he's done everything to the point of death to save people from the judgment. so don't relish it. and in the meantime, please stop beating people up for Him. it's like standing in front of Him, pushing people away. remember that He opened your eyes to know truth, and if he hadn't, you'd have a lot of the same arguments that the people you're fighting with have. so relax, love people, learn from people, speak with those who hae ears to hear, and pray for those who don't, but above all else, love them. Because that's what our Hero did.
hey theresa | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/14/09
so yes, i guess all im trying to say is, theresa, please, and i say this kindly, please stop cutting people's ears off. because Jesus has to heal their bleeding heads when you're done doing your thing. read the gospel account about peter cutting off malchus' ear when defending jesus.. read what jesus says to peter... see if maybe, just maybe, he's saying it to you, too.
hope you don't take offense to all this- just trying to help...
Don't Let IMPOSTERS Block You from It | Reviewer: theresa1 | 3/15/09
There are TRUE brothers who know of the writing I've done on this subject starting 7 years ago. UNLIKE the above person though; they actually POSSESS scriptural-spiritual UNDERSTANDING of Jehovah's principles, purposes, and the way his holy spirit operates with his TRUE servant/worshiper/messengers.
That being the case, THEY RESPECT and DIGNIFY MY CHRISTIAN FREEDOM to make (scripture-and-spirit-trained) CONSCIENCE DECISIONS in order to carry out my life of dedicated service to my God Jehovah with my whole mind, heart, strength and soul. They and I, as TRUE worshipers of God, also understand and appreciate that AUTHORITY TO PREACH GOD'S WORDS COMES FROM HEAVEN, NOT MEN.
Every true worshiper of Jehovah/ true disciple of Jesus Christ is a unique individual, with different talents, abilities, backgrounds, personality traits, experiences, circumstances, levels of Bible knowledge and understanding, etc.
Persons who understand respect [true] Christian freedom know that Jehovah utilizes these qualities within his worshipers to get his will done/ accomplish his purpose of reaching other individuals "in all the inhabited earth" with his life-bettering and life-saving scriptural messages.
We understand and appreciate this: Galatians 6:4,5 -
"But let each one prove what his own work is, and then he will have cause for exultation in regard to himself alone, and not in comparison with the other person. For each one will carry his own load."
TRUE worshipers/friends/"fellow workers" of this God Jehovah make themselves available for him to use; for his holy spirit (his active force) to LEAD. Like Isaiah, we say to God, "Here I am! Send me." (Isaiah 6:8)
Then we do our best to do whatever God's spirit leads us to do.
And like Isaiah, we also, during these last of this system, preach God's truth and warnings, "again and again", even to those who do not want to "hear" or "see" those messages - whose hearts are "unresponsive." (Isaiah 6:9,10; Matthew 13:13-15)
We each do this, every good chance we get to or can make, everywhere throughout this globe; because these hope/blessing and warning messages are THAT URGENT and THAT IMPORTANT.
Out of love of God and neighbor, we do this be-where-the-people-are (especially at their homes, yes, but in other places and situations too) "SEARCH-AND-RESCUE" work
MAINLY FOR THOSE HONEST-HEARTEDLY ***LOOKING FOR*** their Maker, ***TO BE WITH [HIM]*** and who would humbly, gratefully, and willingly LISTEN TO, learn more of, and OBEY TRUTH from Him if it came their way.
(I want to REPEAT THAT, for emphasis, a few times more.)
[We do this "search-and-rescue" work]

Jehovah/ Yahweh's holy spirit (his active force) and his angels work 24/7 to bring those teaching his scriptural truth INTO CONTACT WITH THOSE ***LOOKING FOR*** HIS TRUTH.
That way, persons so ***LOOKING FOR*** his truth ARE ABLE TO FIND IT.
Whereas God could speak to humans directly, or have angels speak to them directly, it is his will and purpose to have true and faithful servants of his convey and teach his life-saving scriptural messages to their fellow human beings.
The true-life stories of how exactly God has caused opportunities for those truly ***LOOKING FOR*** his truth to FIND IT are often VERY AMAZING. (For REAL, one spiritual sister of mine was brought into contact with a woman desperately wanting the help of God's truth because that sister "HAPPENED" to kindly catch that lady's run-away EMU, and housed it in her garage until its owner was found.)
There's lots of those "just HAPPENED to" stories where things work out this way between true servants of God and honest-hearted persons***LOOKING FOR*** his TRUTH.
I just "HAPPENED" to be the parent (between two of us) who brought my daughter to a U2 Elevation concert in 2001. (However, I had been wishing to hear "Pride" performed live, with a crowd singing along.)
WHAT "GOT ME" THIS WAY THE MOST, besides the seemingly heartfelt "HalleluJAHs" sung by U2 at the end of "WALK ON" ......
WAS THIS SONG -
to look around and see and hear the massive audience of people singing this along with U2; seemingly, with their hearts - seeming to really WANT to know God's truth.
Then, there is also the line contained in this song that embodies A CORE TEACHING that TRUE worshipers of Jehovah deliver, per his will, to the peoples of the earth, and that is about HIS [TRUE, heaven-based, Christ-headed] "KINGDOM COME" [ing] soon to encompass this entire planet as earth's only Rulership (and a perfect, just, and truly all-problem/crisis-ending one it will be at that).
I became infused with motivation to help whoever was REALLY ***LOOKING FOR*** God's truth; and I felt like I was looking up, out, and around at a large field ripe for harvesting that way. (See John 4:35)
That is where my story with this began (going on 8 years ago), and A WHOLE LOT of AMAZING things have "HAPPENED" with it since. (My life was altered - a lot.) For all that has, intensely, "HAPPENED" - and especially for the known good "Kingdom" "fruitage" that has come from it; I will NOT be stopping what I've done and do for God - I will continue to live a spirit-directed life for as long as I am.
Cowardly Clueless Crabs | Reviewer: theresa1 | 3/14/09
The above God-fighting attacker DOES NOT KNOW ME, and is no one that I have any spiritual sharing with whatsoever. As is evident, they are absolutely NOT one of Jehovah's true worshipers either - even though they are using a U2-idolater-tried-before deceptive-manipulative TACTIC of FEIGNING "insider" information which they warped to create FALSE CHARGES/ FALSE accusations of wrongdoing according to my own religion.
Such a person is ALIENATED from God and his holy spirit (his purpose-serving active force/power); WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING of Jehovah's words, principles, and purposes.
Jehovah uses his holy spirit (his power/active force) and angels to direct those "looking for" his truth to his people who are teaching it (all over the earth and in various ways), and vice-versa. He has humans teach humans his vital scriptural truth - that is his purposed will.
Therefore, the barrage of un-knowing, FALSE accusations, and advice-DEMANDS
the person above made - for the purpose of trying to discourage/ silence/ shut-out speech of God Almighty's own truth that comes against the (scripturally wrong) teachings of the Bono and U2 idols and their fervent FALSE religious idolaters - is worthless, backward "advice."
For the 7 years I've been writing about this band; their mass-media-ed "spiritual" messages via pop songs (compared and contrasted to what GOD's own words teach); and the spiritual effects this movement has had on even millions of people; NONE OF THAT TIME HAS BEEN "WASTED".
Oppositely, it has borne what is called "kingdom" seeds and fruit.
It must be upsetting, for some people, that Jehovah's scriptural truth (including warnings about idolatry, false religion, etc.) is going out EVERYWHERE, even in surprising places by surprising means.
Why would anyone expect differently though? After all, this is the last part of the last days before God brings his destruction/vengeance onto the world empire of all false religions, and then the rest of the corrupt elements of Satan's world system - along with supporters of them. With Jehovah being a God of JUSTICE, he is, indeed, by his spirit, sending his warnings out, one way and/ or another.
And there are many ways. I've even created scenes of the warning book of Revelation's symbolry - with VEGETABLES, for the public to view while they fix their salads.
Then there's paint, songs, t-shirts, etc. - all this and much more, in addition to the basic knock-knock at your door method.
Jehovah has led his people to put his truth out all around this world now, all around people, in many ways - all to help people FIND God's life-saving truth, AS MANY CLAIM THEY ARE "LOOKING FOR."
But, for all that, who WILL look, and who WILL listen - and who will follow through to learn God's scriptural requirements-truths and faithfully OBEY them (INSTEAD of lashing back with slander, etc. at Jehovah's messengers)?
Soon, after Armageddon leaves its survivors and God's new world is established earth-wide, we can find out.
(P.S. I don't "put everything I know about the Bible" on these pages, as charged. INSTEAD, the spiritual things I got to write here relate to these songs, this band, and the spiritual "teachings" of U2 and their fans, etc.)
What's REALLY GREAT is when I call on a U2 fan at their door. That is more than poetic justice.
Force Fed | Reviewer: U3 | 3/9/09
Theresa????? Why in the freaken heck would you waste your time on conversation through a forum, where within a relegion im guessing you're from, tells you to gaurd against because of dangers of apostasy!!!!!
Just imagine alll the time you waste, trying to get every little drop of information you have on the bible and its teachings to this forum where no one really cares what you have to say, could have been spent out making this professed "witness to all the nations" you do.
The fact of the matter is that the bible also says that true harted ones will be sheeplike, and if they are really searching for god, Jehovahs angelic guidence or holy spirit will find them.
Leave these people to enjoy the song, like they said it is art, and if some look at it like i do as interprutive art, then this song can be interpruted in many ways!
Personaly i think the song is well layed out and at the same time i interprute this song as a love song myself, searching for love!!!!
So theresa..... take your RANTS TO THE DOORS BIBLE BASHER!!!!
woww. | Reviewer: lil.miss.daance(: | 3/7/09
i really <3 this songg. i think that we should all just appreciate eachothers views, and just keep nasty comments to ourselves, because everyone has different feelings about the song. this song shows direction for me as well(:
much love,

Q.E.D. - the Song RESULTS | Reviewer: theresa1 | 3/5/09
As can be seen then, the RESULTS of DENYING/ IGNORING that God HAS a body of TRUTH (his Scriptures) that people belong finding and OBEYING IS THE SAME AS WHAT HAS BEEN DESTROYING OUR WORLD and HUMAN SOCIETY ON IT: UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.
SLANDER is one of the greatest spiritual crimes against God and humans that there is - and yet, the above U2-fans/proteges have engaged in that serious CRIME of INJUSTICE SO FREELY, as if with very dead/impaired consciences.
What has impaired their consciences? Messages such as in this song - that there's no spiritual "truth", and so no ACCOUNTABILITY to the Maker of man and earth?
It would seem so, especially as it is the chosen portal of those persons fighting God.
One poster said that speech of scriptural truth and warnings I posted was making him, in effect, more against "Christianity."
If that person wishes, he/she can immediately go to nearly any of the world's countless churches of FALSE (Scripture-ignoring-and-disobeying "Christianity") - or many adherents of of them - and those AQUIESCING (sell-out) FALSE-to-God religionists will basically tell them "anything they want to hear." They will be a yes-man to them, CODDLE-ERS of them.
It is SO MUCH DIFFERENT with true, scriptural spirituality: Jehovah/Yahweh HAS REQUIREMENTS - disciplining commands and principles, and his own scriptural TERMS OF PURE WORSHIP.
When taken in and practiced, those scriptural standards, that Divine education CHANGES people's HEARTS AND MINDS to be RIGHTEOUS. That produces other good qualities in people too: Love, peace, honesty, compassion, unselfishness, gratitude to one's Maker, etc.
That is why spiritual crimes such as blasphemy and SLANDER are all that more appalling to those who have learned God's truth and standards.
Soon, only those who have CHOSEN to SEE truth God has PROVIDED - and to follow it - will survive his own upcoming Armageddon battle.
That is because, as God has taught, it is his will to carry out his original purpose for the earth and mankind: To have be a paradise filled with happy, thriving, godly people.
AS with the Flood of Noah's Day, he will once again clear the earth of rebels against him and his righteousness.
Then, he will extend HIS HEAVEN-BASED **** KINGDOM **** ("Kingdom come") down from heaven, over the whole earth. With Jesus as God's appointed King of that Kingdom (then earth's ONLY Rulership), blessings and direction will flow down from heaven to God-obedient people here, "the meek ones of the earth." (See Psalm 37:10,11,29)
Take careful note though: Only those who have learned righteousness will get to live here in that new world system/ Kingdom of God; for in that "new earth", "righteousness is to dwell." (2Peter 3:13)
(So, there will be no slanderers allowed. See Acts 3:19 - hurry up to "repent and turn around", so as to "be there" rather than no where.)
Love this song | Reviewer: Randy | 3/3/09
I love this song so much. Its very beautiful. Everytime I hear it I have to take a step back and listen to it. I really connected to this song until I finly found direction in my life. Not religon. I think U2 is a awsome group that are extreamly talanted.
As far as Physco theresa1, Your free to say and do as you like. everyone is. But coming from some one with a open mind about things, Do you really think these crazy rants and attacks on here are really going to suddonly change there views on thigs? Idk, jsut a personal view point but after reading your post, i'm even more turnd off to the entire Christan point of view than before I had the horrific mind numming opertunit to read your seriously wacked view on things. After reading your post i can truly say, U are nuts! If you are what christanity is about I can confidently say, I am not and nor will I ver be one, thank goodness!
I think you are all insane! | Reviewer: rich | 2/24/09
I just came on here for some lyrics...
You people are all nuts, crazy and insane.
I hope you all are on medication and seek
professional psychotic therapy on a weekly
or daily basis. Get a life! Its a song: if you don't
like it write your own. It works for me!
God REFUSES to Grant Requests for ... | Reviewer: theresa1 | 2/12/09
In seven years time, I have seen much of this too, coming from FALSE "Christian" U2 fans: DECEPTIVE EMOTIONAL PLOYS used to try to cover over - as well as "smoothly" deliver - persecutive attacks of (prophesied) evil, SLANDEROUS SPEECH AGAINST God's words and against TRUE CHRISTIANS WHO ACTUALLY LOYALLY AND OBEDIENTLY * DO * WHAT JESUS COMMANDED AND SAID WAS MOST IMPORTANT FOR HIS * TRUE * DISCIPLES TO DO, WHICH IS TO PREACH AND TEACH THIS WORLD JEHOVAH'S LIFE-SAVING (and bettering) SCRIPTURAL MESSAGES, INCLUDING THE WARNING ONES. (Ezekiel 3:17-21)
In fulfillment of Bible prophecy for this time of the end, TRUE Christians - of which I am one - DO EXACTLY THAT, in various ways, in various situations, all over the world. (Matthew 24:14; 28:19,20)
But, also, in fulfillment of Bible prophecy, FALSE "Christians" FAIL to preach and teach Jehovah/Yahweh's scriptural truth.
First of all, MOST DO NOT EVEN BOTHER LEARNING THE WHOLE OF SCRIPTURAL TRUTH. That such persons ### POSSESS NO SCRIPTURAL UNDERSTANDING ### (even though they CLAIM to) QUICKLY BECOMES EVIDENT IN THEIR SPEECH, as their God-fighting words DENY and conflict with one basic scriptural truth after another, after another.
No - as is frequently demonstrated, the SPECIALTY of such FALSE "Christians" IS, INSTEAD, THE PHILOSOPHIES of MEN: Man-made (anti-scriptural, FALSE religious) doctrines, creeds and traditions that attempt to trample upon the word of God and make it invalid (see Matthew 15:6-9); (anti-scriptural) DESIRE-PLEASING TREND-PHILOSOPHIES TAUGHT BY POPULAR (or not), IDOLIZED PERSONS; or THEIR OWN SELF-DESIRE-FIRST-SERVING (SELF as gOD) MUSINGS. (2Timothy 4:3,4)
Yet, ultimately, everything such persons teach that is AGAINST GOD'S OWN PURPOSELY PROVIDED AND DELIVERED SCRIPTURAL TRUTH serves Satan as god, and CHAMPIONS his deathful lies and slander against both God and Christ.
So, persons who CLAIM to worship God and be "followers" of his Son ("Christians"), but who FIGHT AGAINST, rip-down, and disbarge speech of God's scriptural truth and THOSE TELLING IT -again, as Christ commanded and prophesied that those TRUE to him WOULD DO - indeed, by scriptural description show themselves to be ENEMIES of the God of the Bible and ENEMIES of his Son; serving and obeying Satan the Devil and his interests instead. They are among the prophesied ANTICHRISTS, despite calling themselves "Christians."
The type of response seen above is VERY TYPICAL among FALSE "Christian" (and other) U2 fans WHO HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFULLY BRAINWASHED TO OR REINFORCED TO THE BRAINWASHING OF THE CORE PHILOSOPHY TAUGHT BY THIS SONG (especially as it was utilized during the last tour.)
See how it has even motivated a professed "Christain" TO DENY THAT GOD AND JESUS CHRIST EVEN HAVE SCRIPTURAL TRUTH THAT GOD PURPOSELY INTENDED HUMANS TO NOT ONLY LEARN, BUT LIVE BY/ OBEY, AND TEACH TO OTHERS - NOW (NOT "LATER)!!!!!!!!!!!
This is what exactly what I meant when I have referred to the "recent" mass-media-ed teachings of the gods-to-many persons of Bono and U2 (AND THEIR FERVENT FALSE RELIGIOUS [especially FALSE “Christian”] FANS) as being RESPONSIBLE FOR SPREADING/ re-infecting persons with SPIRITUAL DEATH DISEASE.
Again, just HOW MANY led/reinforced
to (anti-scriptural) FALSE religion/ FALSE spiritual philosophy, antichristism, blasphemy, and fighting against God FANS/IDOLATERS of U2 will LOSE THEIR ENTIRE ETERNAL FUTURES, STARTING SOON, when the Only True God, the Creator, the Judge of the Earth, the Universal Sovereign, the Writer of Scriptural Instruction for Pure Worship and Survival of the End of this Satanic World System Jehovah/Yahweh and his Son Jesus Christ come forth to forever ELIMINATE from this earth (and any sort of existence forevermore) of all persons found "LIKING AND CARRYING ON A LIE"??????? (See Revelation 22:15.)
Billions? Millions? Thousands? Hundreds?
(I personally eye-witnessed/ear-witnessed half-a-million "fans" (and that was just a small fraction of them) enthusiastically sing-chant-responding back to Bono, in agreement, that, like him, they have NOT "found what [they're] looking for" - despite that God, Jesus Christ, myriads of angels, "holy ones"/Christ's brothers, Jehovah's scripturally described human messengers, and Jehovah [Yahweh's] holy spirit/ active force have been putting out/ delivering God's wholly-intended blessing and warning messages of vital scriptural spiritual truth "in all the inhabited earth, for a witness to all the nations", increasingly, as prophesied, during this final, critical part of the last (pre-Armageddon) days. (Matthew 24:14)
That work will soon come to completion - at God's call.
"...then THE END WILL COME." (That is the last part of the Matthew 24:14 prophecy.)
At that time, Armageddon, when Jesus comes as God's Chief Executioner, THERE WILL basically BE NO MORE "EXCUSES" LEFT/ACCEPTED by God or Christ that persons "STILL HAVEN'T FOUND WHAT [they're] LOOKING FOR." God's scriptural truth will already have BEEN MADE AVAILABLE to EVERYONE ALIVE.
The TRUTH will be that, basically, ALL PERSONS WILL HAVE MADE THEIR CHOICE - to either LISTEN TO, LEARN, and OBEY GOD'S GLOBALLY AVAILABLE SCRIPTURAL TRUTH ~~~~ OR ~~~~ to serve "other" gods (self, Satan, other humans, etc.) , “obeying” them/those things INSTEAD.
WARNING WILL HAVE BEEN JUSTLY and FAIRLY GIVEN OUT.
THAT TIME OF WARNING IS NOW - MORE THAN EVER.
Again, most persons - FALSE "Christian" and "other" - are in a state of spiritual stupor/drunkiness/inebriation from eating and drinking up spiritual LIE substances from demons. In that state, it is true, and it can be seen, that (with the exception of those knowing and firmly holding onto God-provided scriptural TRUTH) "the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one." (1John 5:19)
That is why this world is in its largely senseless, corrupt, dying state.
And that is why, AS THE SCRIPTURES TEACH, God will soon be bringing the entire unjust world system that currently (harmfully) dominates over human society (with Satan as its actual ruler/god) TO AN END. First, God will destroy all FALSE religions. (Revelation 17 and 18) Then, he will get rid of every other last vestige of Satan's works, and supporters of them. (Ezekiel 38 and 39; Daniel 2:44; Revelation 19, etc.)
The "way out" for individuals is NOT to continue going recklessly (spiritually drunkenly) headlong into the spiritual black hole/ abyss/ drowning whirlpool of U2 (especially Bono) AND U2 FALSE "CHRISTIAN" FERVENT IDOLATER-FAN-popularized #/no one can know the truth about God/# SELF-and-SIN-"EXCUSING" "UNCERTAINTY."
For individuals to KEEP ON shutting-out Divinely-provided “BOOK OF NATURE”/ CREATION-TESTIFIED, scriptural-spiritual TRUTH is for such persons to BE DISHONEST-HEARTED in their "looking for"/ searching for God.
Soon, all "excuses" for not listening to and OBEYING the Creator's truth will be OVER with, evaporated, gone. Persons STILL making such “excuses” will, indeed, be regarded as “INEXCUSABLE” for doing so. Again, please READ Romans 1:20, and 1:18-32 surrounding that.
How futile it would be, then, to stand before One's Maker (Armageddon Day, here, soon) and even TRY to squeak out (or even think) "But I still haven't found what I'm looking for"!
Then, as warned, it WILL BE TOO LATE to "find" God and his truth......So do it
NOW.
