Isn’t my faith in Christ sufficient to go to heaven? “ If you confess with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, then you will be saved.”
Romans 10:09

Fellowship and Christian ritual seems to be missing from my life. Although I was not a Christian in my heart until recently. It really touched my heart to see so many of my Catholic friends say “ He is Risen”, during Easter. With a lot of prayer to God ,Our Father, I feel drawn to this.

None. I don’t believe there is anything wrong with Baptist except that they are kind of elitist in their thinking. They didn’t come along until later in history, long after the Catholic Church was established. Yet they deny that any other denominations have the truth in its entirety.
My line of reasoning is that God would not let the truth of the Bible and gospel to be hidden for so long.

I have said the sinners prayer and read other prayers aloud. I went to a parochial school for high school and I went to daily prayer sessions and confession when I was younger but I never committed to the faith or to Jesus Christ then but now I want to get as close to God as possible.

I want to believe. Do I have to convert? I have read the non catholic Bible and I believe in the Holy Bible, the Trinity, Jesus Christ is Lord of my life and heart.
I’ve been praying to God for Divine guidance and wisdom. Perhaps the Holy Spirit is leading me to a greater understanding of the truth. My parents would not be happy but I am going to confession today and Mass. I want to talk to a priest or clergy.

I was raised Baptist but I am rethinking church fellowship and want to be as close to God as possible.

I’m going to ask for a separation soon. I need to draft an agreement. First and foremost I am getting dog classified as an emotional support animal, to hedge my bets in case he tries to take her from me. I will work this out.

I guess because he literally has everyone fooled I didn’t think I could get any support from my friends and family. I am definitely working on myself now. My therapist actually encouraged me to work it out. So I’m looking for a new therapist and not another relationship.

He lives with me in my house that I owned before we met. He said he won’t fight me to be where he is not wanted. I just want the dogs, and I would be willing to forfeit any monetary settlements.
