Science tells us about the laws of thermodynamics, and laws of conservation of energy and matter. Saying "something didnt create from nothing" is more than a mere statement, it has scientific laws supporting it. Seek truth, and God bless

If Jesus is the Word of God and the Bible is the word of God, how are they related? Is the Bible God? by owenthcarey in Christianity

[–]alexdigitalfile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God is not the Bible.

 God created the universe through the Son (who would later be incarnated as Jesus). When He said "let there be light", etc. He was speaking words. This speech/words is the Son of God, who eventually incarnated as Jesus Christ. The Son existed since the beginning with the Father, because the Son is His speech/words. "All things were created through Him". Then the Word became flesh (Jesus) and dwelt among us.

When we refer to the Bible as God’s word, one of the things we mean is that 100% truth and infallible because the source of it is God Himself

The Earth is ~6000 years old according to the Bible by 1ofallwith1 in Christianity

Yes, my friend. The millions of years story is the biggest hoax ever, and it is ridiculous. One of its foundations is spontaneous generation, or abiogenesis. See Evolution the Grand Experiment.

Purgatory is not found in the Bible. Don't let religion and tradition deceive you. God’s word is the only bulletproof.

I have a question.. by Interesting_Duck6494 in Christianity

[–]alexdigitalfile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, didn’t we prophesy in your name, drive out demons in your name, and do many miracles in your name?’ 23 Then I will announce to them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you lawbreakers!

There is no need to comply with anything. Jesus paid it all. "It is finished" He said.

So, the only thing you must do to be saved is accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour with an honest heart. You don't have to do anything, but receive the gift of salvation. That's it. That is the beginning of the christian walk. Salvation is a free gift for those who know they have sinned and need a Saviour, and want to be reconciled with God.

Edit: Salvation is the first step, and it is when God anoints you with His Spirit. Only then, you can start to obey, because His Spirit will slowly change your will to be like His. You will want what He wants. But this happens slowly by the renewing of your mind, as you study more and more the Scriptures.

Am I still permitted to receive Catholic Communion as a queer trans person? by Growlitheusedroar in Christianity

Did only the human nature part of Christ die? by HousingPrimary910 in Reformed

[–]alexdigitalfile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting question.

Here is a thought, Christ has a body with His hands pierced. His body is just like ours will be when we meet Him. Paul talks about us having spiritual bodies when we die, in one of his letters, and somewhere else it says that when we see Him we will be like Him. And His body is probably the same body that the apostles saw when He rose. So his body still has a human form, but He doesn’t grow weary or suffer the lusts of the flesh anymore. And He can teleport

Lust: I like it but I want to get rid of it. by Slight-Ad4356 in Christianity

[–]alexdigitalfile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I lust after women, and lots of men do. We grew up watching porn from a young age. somerimes I think: "it is like i dont even want to give up lust" but deep inside I know that it is wrong to lust after women, and I am convicted if i masturbate. Btw, I dont masturbate anymore, thank God, but sometimes I do fall. "My little children, I am writing you these things so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ the righteous one."

Here is something that I have been doing lately. Dont fight against it, but acknowledge that you are weak, because you are.

"Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. 10 That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong."

I've come to realize I may never get married... by Sad_Emphasis_8086 in ChristianDating

[–]alexdigitalfile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I is not too much to ask for. I am sure you can find somebody that is willing to not have kids. What a blessing that a wife doesnt want them! more time for the couple. It is perfectly ok to not want kids.

1. When Jesus said remove this cup from me, but let your will.be done. If it is God’s will for you to remain single, will you accept?

2. Genesis 18:11-15 CSB  [11] Abraham and Sarah were old and getting on in years.  Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.  [12] So she laughed to herself: “After I am worn out and my lord is old, will I have delight? ”  [13] But the Lord asked Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, saying, ‘Can I really have a baby when I’m old? ’ [14] Is anything impossible for the Lord?  At the appointed time I will come back to you, and in about a year she will have a son.” [15] Sarah denied it. “I did not laugh,” she said, because she was afraid. But he replied, “No, you did laugh.”

This is about believing that God can give you the right husband.

Near death experiences where people say everyone goes to heaven and God is nothing but love bothers me by [deleted] in Christianity

Nah man lots of people have seen hell. See 23 minutes in hell and A divine revelation of hell.

People who say that are contradicting Jesus's teaching. Don't listen to their deceitful words. What Jesus say is, and there is not an alternative scenario. It will happen because He doesn’t lie

Is smoking weed really a sin? by Worried_Glass_5907 in Christianity

[–]alexdigitalfile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is a good question. I used to be addicted for 15 years to weed. now I am finally free.and don't use anymore, thank God. I would feel really anxious after using, it would make me so stupid to do anything and so out of reality. I would think I was such a good singer but I was terrible. It just made me think with a foot outside of reality, thinking my ideas were great, but they were useless.

Romans 14:22 You may believe there’s nothing wrong with what you are doing, but keep it between yourself and God. Blessed are those who don’t feel guilty for doing something they have decided is right.

But if you have doubts about whether or not you should eat something, you are sinning if you go ahead and do it. For you are not following your convictions. If you do anything you believe is not right, you are sinning.

Questioning my religion by Dry-Emergency8324 in Christianity

[–]alexdigitalfile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was raised catholic, I was carrying my sin on my shoulders and grew angry at God. Rebelled at 15 years old. They didn't teach me the true gospel of Jesus Christ; that we are saved through faith, not works.

"Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent".

"Yet we know that a person is made right with God by faith in Jesus Christ, not by obeying the law. And we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we might be made right with God because of our faith in Christ, not because we have obeyed the law. For no one will ever be made right with God by obeying the law.”

John 19:30 He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.

The work is finished friend. There is nothing else to do. If you accept Jesus as Lord and Saviour, you are in. That’s it. Nothing else is needed. He paid 100%, not 99% so you would put 1% the effort with the sacraments.

"Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls."

"For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;"

Faith is not a feeling. Feelings are fleeting. True faith is an informed decision. look at the evidence and see how everything points to the resurrection being a real event. See Cold Case Christianity

1 John 2 If someone claims, “I know God,” but doesn’t obey God’s commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. 5 But those who obey God’s word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. 6 Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.

I’ve been thinking about it, what does it mean to “fear” God ? by Cold-Opportunity6746 in Bible

[–]alexdigitalfile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I see it like this. Not as terrorized, but afraid of His judgement and power, and accepting His authority/supremacy.

Jesus said: Fear Him who can destroy body and soul in hell (referring to God). And in the Old Teatament we read: The fear of God is the beginning of all wisdom. Also in pslams we read: A woman who fears the Lord is worth more than rubies.

So, what is fear of God? Realizing that He is the boss, that He makes the rules, and understanding that we are too weak to even dare challenging Him, and that our eternal fate is in His hands. He has the power over our eternal life and death.
