Right now I feel I have to write something. Every time I think I write. I write almost everything down that goes through my mind. Its what I would call my own therapy without spending those outrages prices on a therapist.
Well anyway I have been thinking a lot about God, Jesus, and the Bible.
I believe that their is a God (or a higher being then myself).
But what I'm having trouble with believing
is......... the Bible.
My whole family are Christians, but i can't seem to place my whole belief system on a book.
How do I know that it is the word of God and hundreds of years ago the people that wrote it actually did speak to God.
Actually I envy the people who do.
They have so much faith that one certain book has all the answers of life, death, and afterlife.
I have been trying to find all the information I can to see if this book most people would call The Holy Bible does have all the answers.
I am not trying to say the people that live through the Bible are wrong but how do you know its the truth.
If I read a random book and say this is the Bible would I be wrong?
And another thing that I can't understand is religion.
Why are there so many different types?
To name a few...... Christians, Catholics, Buddhists, Wiccans and Hinduism.
How do we know which one is the right one?
And why do people insist on fighting over such a irrelevant subject?
I am not trying to say anyone is wrong but really how do they know?
People spend their whole life trying to answer these same questions and in the end what do they have to show for their efforts....Nothing.
Oh and another thing,
If God is such an important part of the world's exsisitence then why can't we talk about this holy being in schools?
And why do people say oh thats against my religion I can't do that?
What really gets me is how people blame God and Satan on things they do but wont fess up to doing.
For example: A man goes to jail for killing a woman. When he explains what he has done he claims God or Satan came to me in a dream or vision saying to kill this woman.
So my point is if you claim God made you do it, is it ok?
But since Satan is evil and you claim that Satan made you do it, is it wrong?
The things that we claim are right and wrong also come from the Bible.
If we are not allowed to read or talk about the Bible why is our society based on it.
Okay it doesn't say tho shalt not run a read light or speed in a school zone,
but its does say
"Thou shalt not kill " ,
"Thou shalt not steal",
"Thou shat not commit adultery".
So for people who do not believe in God or The Bible explain to me why they still live by these rules God has set for all humanity?
And if its is also against the law to practice religion in a public place such as school and the work place, why are the commandments part of our law system?
If anyone can answer any of these questions without resulting to God, Satan, or the Bible I'm sure your the one person who doesn't believe in anything....... but fact.

The Bible has foretold for over two thousand years that Israel which was destroyed would be united (once again became a country)and it happened in 1948. The Bible spoke about the end times and pointing to all the troubles in Israel, Jerusalem and the Middle eastern countries(theres plenty of troubles there today). These are just two of the Bibles predictions or prophecies which have come true.The Bible came from a country which was very powerful once and was later destoyed and it's people became slaves to the Eygptians and Romans. Yet the writings of the Bible survived. I can give you hundreds of examples why this book is Holy and Gods word.The Bible describes the birth and death of jesus Christ hundreds of years before He came. One last fact, usually when a leader of a small group of people dies, the group dies with them. However when Jesus died and was resurrected the church growth exploded from maybe a hundred followers to thousands of believers in a few short days.This happened because thousands were eyewitnesses to Jesus coming back from the died. Jesus's ministry lasted only three short years , yet He's still touching the lives of others thousands of years later. Lou christianity 247
