Answering people who have false understanding of God & Christianity

Q: I know a gal who is all into the LGBT stuff and that is more important to her than Jesus. Despite the fact that I found something written by her years ago when she was 12 that was a declaration of her faith. We were talking/texting on faith matters , and she replied: "And that is why I am not a Christian. If my choices are 'I am a Supreme being who made you and knows everything about you but also all you are is wrong and you're going to hell because of it unless you become a perfect little automaton and do exactly what I say in this vague book that contradicts itself and was written by other humans,' then I guess I'm going to hell. Because dictating exactly how someone should live their life isn't love. That's megalomania." A: She doesn't want God because she isn't Christian, was never genuinely saved; wasn't born again by God. She loves sin and is chained by it, trapped in it, and so she has no desire to live in righteousness. She like...

Why not other gods?

Q: I am separated from my wife and doing all I can to get her back. She has gotten very deep into Christianity. I am open to the concept of God, but why the shun other prophets? Humans need all the help they can get, right? A: God is the first and only. All other gods are imaginary made up by idolatrous men.  We can only get help from the only true and living God. Imaginary things can't help you.  Those not Prophets from YHWH are false ones sent by Satan to decieve humans.  Understand why other gods are not real, and get answers based on your religious beliefs  I hope these help, and guide you to God.  God bless

Faith statement 3

Here is another Faith statement. It is from a Evangelical Free church.  What We Believe: Article 1: Godhead We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. ( John 14:8-17 , 26 ;  John 15:26 ;  Isaiah 9:6 ;  2 Corinthians 13:14 ;  Isaiah 42:8 ;  Isaiah 45:15 ;  Matt 28:19 ). Trinity – One God in Three Persons The word “trinity” is not found in the Bible, but the concept is there.  It is used to define the one true God revealed in the Bible as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  God is one in His divine being or constitutional nature, and He exists eternally ( Deut. 6:4 ;  James 2:19 ).  The divine essence is not equally divided; it is fully in each manifestation to maintain its unity, as in one in unity.  All three are persons, each with a purpose and a ministry. Trinity-Word Picture The Father is responsible for bringing men to salvation and for sending the Son and Holy Spirit. The Son is th...
