Pursuing belief, miracles, stumbling blocks & Faith

Q: I have been on the fence but actively pursuing God about what I’m believing. Do you think to believe in God and yet believe that a lot of the events that happen back then are illogical? Today we don’t see people coming back from the dead, we don’t see fish feeding 5000 people coming from enough for two, etc. Just because those things don’t happen today doesn’t mean that they didn’t.  It’s just hard to wrap my mind around as it is illogical by today’s standards. Hopefully that makes sense. I’ve been working on belief for a long time and figuring out what I believe and praying about it, but I’m still not sure anybody really hears me when I pray. I am working on these thoughts. Guidance appreciated.  A: Illogical to the unsavrd. BybthatvI kean in general, things from a unsaved persons mind, based on their presupposition, being educated in a atheistic school system, and only focused on the unregenerate mind, being unsaved... man would focus on his foolish intellect and believe...

Softened skeptic desiring church & God, w believing husband, seeks help answering young child's questions

Q: I have a concern & need help. For YEARS I have been feeling the need of going to a church and get close to God. I have A LOT of doubts in my heart I feel skeptic, because of that I haven’t been in a church in so many years. I was raised in a latino catholic family ( like most of hispanic/latino culture) and i honestly never feel any connection to the religion, and I have very bad memories and experiences not directly with the church, but the people who practiced religion. I see a lot of stuff that doesn’t really match what they’re preaching.  l’m 36 i have 4 kids total 20, 19 and 18 and because my “divorce” of religion they don’t believe in God or religion, not totally because of me, but because they decided to not believe or follow the religion (maybe because they see what i see as well).  But lately the last year or so, my little 7 yo girl 7 has being asking me so many questions about God, who is God, if he take care of her, what do I know about him, and how to pray....

Struggling with God & Faith questions

Q: I thought I had become a Christian recently and I was obsessed with learning reading as much as possible.  I was going to church, bible study, listening to Christian radio and listening to sermons. I became unwell for a few weeks and had no energy for it all.  Once I was well enough I didn’t pick up my readings and learnings again. I felt my Christianity slipping away.  Why do I only “feel it” when absolutely absorbed in it? Why has it been fleeting, why is my logic kicking back in? I feel like there is something of a concept of God/creator but I can’t belive the Bible.  In my few months of learning I realized each religion refuses to read/learn about other religion and their Bibles.  Each have their own additions, omissions and each has been done by MAN. I don’t trust it.  How do I find my way ? A: You should start at your local Bible ficused church. Why havent you called the church and asked the Pastor to meet to discuss these questions? or gone to Sun...

There's a Void in my life and am examining Christianity

Q: I’m trying to become more religious and think that God is the answer for the void in my life… but my problem is I keep trying to convince myself about God and even heaven and hell. What do I do? I’ve only been listening to sermons online so far and have been researching Christianity. I just feel empty inside. A: When we understand our purpose, value and identity, and also grasp what's wrong with the world, why it's like that and then see why we need Jesus... everything makes sense.  Here's helps.. 1. 4 Ways God reveals Himself  2. What went wrong  3. What's mankind's purpose 4. The Gospel , which God calls us to obey.   5. This world will always be full of suffering, pain, Illnesses and death, but believers have more troubles but also also blessings. Both the latter (and firmer even) have good purposes. However God is always with the believer to help him grow closer to God, trust and rely on Him more, and seek comfort in Him. He is sovereign and works all th...

Doubts or faltering faith?

Are you having doubts about God or is your faith faltering?  "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." Hosea 4:6 These resources can help you. By strengthening your faith you wont falter anymore but will fully trust God. Some today have recieved a false Gospel , and it might be at the core issue as to why people walk away from the faith or deconstruct and become atheist. They were sold lies of a false message. Here is a free book to clear that up and bring you the biblical Gospel to ensure you come to Jesus for the right reasons.  Or you obeyed the true Gospel but your "lack of knowledge of Scripture" is the source of the problem. Not reading and knowing it is a failure on your part not God's; he already gave it to you. You need to know it. You need to know who God is and how his people have been lead by Him through trials and situations [in this fallen world] to a blessed outcome. When you really know who God is you can see he is the only one faithfu...
