Personal or intimate relationship begins when you are filled with the Holy Ghost. It is intensely physical and difficult to describe in words. it is very tangible

Christianity is not a belief system , by any stretch of imagination. it has to do with personal relationship with Jesus
Well know that, but people without the Holy Spirit don't understand that, they see it just like any of the other man-made religions and philosophies.
That's because "Personal Relationships" require at least 2 people to be involved. Not one person and some other fictional, non-material, or concept of a person.
So unless your "Personal Relationship" means Jesus himself is coming to hang out with you physically you're having a "Personal Relationship" with your own imaginary Jesus.
Please explain in detail what you mean by "Personal Relationship".

No, I mean since when does the church not condemn lust?
(Besides Joel Osteen, he doesn't teach anything about sin or the cross.)

yes you are twisting something in creativity hoping its teeth is something ive not experienced. The greatest control comes over oneself, the lowest over others.
Control oneself and there will be no desire to control others... labels and dogmas are tags of slavery and have been keeping the earth and humanity in tyranny for thousands and thousands of years.
Since you tried to tell me all these things in self projection and assumption or whatever, knowing thy self is not infecting another with the same sickness but healing them of it once properly understood.

I agree with this. It is intense and real. It is also difficult to describe. The best I can do is say that there is a powerful emotional undertone when you are with someone you truly love - a soulmate spouse, your newborn child. This same intense emotion? It is a pale shadow of what that experience is.

There is also a "strange fire" baptism. It's not the Holy Spirit. It's a Kundalini spirit. You can never go by feelings, and all spirits must be tested.
radical it may be, but its the truth
