I try so hard to continue being a good Christian but I know I am losing my faith and do not know what to do to stop it. I have done the whole trust in God and I see deep in my heart that it not happening, I have lost faith in everything it seems. God, Justice, I had an incident with another member of my church which has driven me out, I know I could find another church but I haven't yet, I feel I can't be bothered.
I've lost my faith in me and my abilities also. I think I must have relied on God a little too much as I feel I am at a loss now.
How do you suggest I restore this....I have read certain passages from the bible, I read my prayer of serenity and footprints always and I no longer feel the comfort in those prayers, things seem to have gone too far.
What shall I do....I never thought I'd be in this situation.

OK so here is the deal I have been with my boyfriend for over a year. Last Christmas I wanted to surprise him by decorating his house for Christmas. So I put up his tree and some garland around the stairs and stockings with our names. And he totally freaked out and told me he hated Christmas and didn't want me to decorate. So needless to say I was hurt and pissed at the same time so I took everything down except the tree because that was too much work. We did wind up having a wonderful Christmas though besides all that.

So when I start mentioning me decorating this year he again gets weird and says I have to do all of it and he wants nothing to do with it. Which is fine but I still feel like he doesn't want it. And I love Christmas and decorating. He recently asked me to move in and I want to but I don't want to feel like I'm walking on egg shells in his house which then would be ours. I guess I am just confused I don't understand how anyone could hate Christmas so much?!?! HELP!

You don't have to type the whole thing out, all you have to do is give the reference.
And if you do not believe in God, please do not comment. Eg. Post a stupid comment that is most disrepectful and hurtful to christains.

I'm beginning to feel like I have to sift through 25 answers that make no sense, have nothing to do with the question posed, are just insults to the asker or are rediculously ignorant (meaning uninformed) and based on sterotypes before I find the one or 2 that are actually thoughtful and based on factual information. How many others wish people would please READ before answering a question?

Now I am someone who realizes that atheists are fools who are missing a very simple point but the fact is you Chrisitans with your silly bible make it so damn hard for someone to take God seriously. You make people say the most horrible and offensive things about him just because you are his supposed representatives and because of your very feeble theology. Now I know many of you are sincere and one who believes and respects God can not be compared with the poor atheists, but I just ask here and now all Christians to please cease and desist from speaking and preaching because frankly you give God a very bad name. And I ask more that you try and study some eastern religions and try and understand the concept of Karma. I believe if you did this you would do a lot to amend this present situation where you and your religion create a world full of atheists and haters of religion.

I was reading an article in USA today that posted this statistic:
"The vast majority of non-Christians — 91% — said Christianity had an anti-gay image, followed by 87% who said it was judgmental and 85% who said it was hypocritical.
Such views were held by smaller percentages of the active churchgoers, but the faith still did not fare well: 80% agreed with the anti-gay label, 52% said Christianity is judgmental, and 47% declared it hypocritical."

I'm wondering if maybe it would be more effective to change the views on Christianity rather than gripe about those who are not Christian. Seems when even 50% of church-goers view Christianity as judgemental...that would be a problem.

My question is "What can Christians do to change this negative viewpoint of Christianity?"

such as the Daisy Scout promise and the pledge? I had someone tell my I should and I was rather surprised. While I do believe that "God" doesn't belong in those places I have no desire to ostrasize my kids and simply teach them that whatever god they want can go with the word. If they choose to have the battle when they are older, I will fully support them, but I'm not going to throw a fit about it. Have I "sold out"?

Hi, I understand that the most of the christians believe that covenant of God to israelites is permenent, uncondition and eternal. So, they support Israel being the promised land for Jews. But this is just general statment. I would like to know the official viewpoint of various denominations.

I have heard Mormons say they worship Christ and I have heard Mormons say they don't worship Christ.

for example see http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AtS6YFb3bn4Qr17eRDPqCInsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071109155851AAL1yOA&show=7#profile-info-YgsmbTezaa


The Jesus of the Bible is prayed to (Acts 7:59-60; Psalm 116:4 and Zech. 13:9 with 1 Cor. 1:1-2).
The Jesus of the Bible is worshiped (Matt. 2:2,11; 14:33; 28:9; John 9:35-38; Heb. 1:6)
The Jesus of the Bible called God (John 1:1; Heb. 1:8).

If you can't agree on who you worship, isn't this a problem?
