abandonded Christ initially during his trial and at the cross. What do we learn from the disciples in their time of abandoment and the fact that they became stronger after Christ arose and defeated death.

A person who answered another of my questions has not understood why Christians would follow the teachings the disciples carried out in the name of Christ. I do have my own understanding on this and believe that it made the disciples stronger in their faith, hence starting a following of Christ that lives to this day, but I'd like some additional view points. Thanks!

For God is the source of everything and imperfection exists.

For God does what he hates, his creations have done in his image.

For God is perfect he cannot learn of his mistakes.
For perfection is not alone.

I was raised some sort of christian, basically my mother was religious and I grew up believing in god to some degree and my father isn't religious (family background of buddhists and strict catholics). My mother said I can find my religion once I wanted to and I want to now. Just I don't understand the differences between all of the denominations and I know Im not interested in buddhism. I'm going into this with very little understanding of the bible, and I have never been to church (besides family weddings). How do I go about choosing a church? Researching them online hasn't helped much, I find that people choose based on their beliefs and certain aspects of the bible etc.... I am a clean slate.

We were together since I was 16 and he was 21, for two and a half years, but no one knew. Then one day he decided to tell everyone he was gay. Seeing my family and our group of friends reaction I panicked and started to ignore him, he got the hint and left me alone, in fact he even left this town... Now I am 23 and still no one knows I am gay...

The other day I met him again, he was getting picked on by our old friends, who I stopped talking to last year. I helped him out, then we each went our own way. He is still in town now...

I still love him with all my heart. He mentioned that he has not been with anyone in 4 years, so he is not taken... So I think I might have a chance... But I am not sure...

Should I just leave him alone? Should I try to patch up what I messed up? I do not know what to do, or how to do it!

Why do a large number of Christians believe that the gospels were written by the disciples during Jesus's lifetime? Each of the gospels has vast differences in their accounts of events and quotes and the like. Scholars have determined that they were written several decades and later after Christ's death. If these writers were documenting eyewitness accounts, wouldn't it make sense to write them closer to the time period they occured in, and wouldn't they have 'agreed' with each other instead of having such differences?

Also, it is next to impossible for the average person to remember something that was said or done a certain length of time in the past, especially decades past. And what they are able to recall would be a wild guess, with embellishing it to some degree.

Secular historians only document a very small fraction of events during his lifetime, and none of the things that would have made headlines in that period for being out of the ordinary.

I invite Jess over. While she's there, my dad invites her to go shoppinga few days later. I would have invited Karen to go shopping with me, because I hadn't spent much time with her. I go shopping with Jess. She invites me to spend the night, on a school night, because I live far away from school. I didn't really want to, because that would make Karen mad that I was spending so much time with Jess. I was polite and went with Jess. I had forgotten that I had told Karen that I would give her a ride to school. Jess offered her a ride, but she got one with someone else instead. I had to go home with Jess so I could get my stuff from the night before. I normally go to Karen's house after school.

If I get my dad to pick me up from school then Karen will be even more mad. If I go to her house and she is already really mad, it would be worse.

I didn't lie to either of them at any time.

Help!

(And please don't say that I shouldn't be friends with either of them if they act like that.)
