i am new to the area in my new town and i am having trouble with some of the people here. some of the other men in the area are telling me that christianity is one of the youngest faiths out there. that the pagans and jewish people have had a uniformed religion for many years before and after the death of our lord and savior jesus christ. how do i answer this? i am not a very smart man, i know that god has given me more in my life than just a mind, but i need help here! how do i react to them? please i need the help of good god fearing people on this.

Re: crisis of faith
You need a pastor for counseling and a teacher for grammar and punctuation.
Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:
Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

Re: crisis of faith
I think the Pastor meant you need a counselor in real life, not one you've met on the Internet. As learned as our Pastors are, they can't do much for you over the Internet.Originally posted by curiousperson View Post
That being said, if you have mental issues, why are you hanging around people that make you feel worse about yourself? If you are in a state of crisis contact the Mental Health Center of Boulder at 303-447-1665. Yes Jesus can save you, but as you don't have a church in Boulder right now, this would probably be your best bet in an emergency situation.PROOF: Atheists are too stupid to understand the Bible!

Re: crisis of faith
Unless the "pagans" you're talking to are direct descendants of Greeks or Romans who worshipped their ancient pantheons (Rome's being a replica of Greece's), then they're full of hooey. They, like Wiccans, are following a made-up "religion" of feelgood nonsense.Originally posted by curiousperson View Post
How many of these so-called "pagans" practice animal and child sacrifice? What's that, none? Why are they ignoring the demands of their "gods"?
Meanwhile, Christians are just perfected Jews. Just ask mAnn Coulter:
Bible boring? Nonsense!
Try Bible in a Year with Brother V, or join Shirlee and the kids as they discuss Real Bible Stories!
You can't be a Christian if you don't know God's Word!

Re: crisis of faith
We only can help you so far friend. You need to fellowship with fellow Christians in real life. We understand the ex-gay Pastor Ted Haggard is back preaching, I suggested you try his ministry.Originally posted by curiousperson View Post

Re: crisis of faith
There is a reason you are a nut case. God is punishing someone who thinks they care about you. You need to find this person and ask them why they hate baby Jesus. You may have to question everyone you know or have met casually and pray that the person who is at the root of this is still living. Be diligent, do not take 'No' for an answer. This is how God works. A very logical man. Read the KJV, and see the light.Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.Comment
