Born again Christians? Please share your testimony...I need some spiritual uplifting!

Im an 18 year old college student. I got water baptized a while ago...on August 6th. I'm Pakistani but was born into a Christian family. I got saved around 12 or 13 years of age. God has done many miracles in my life and family. My dad had throat cancer (in 1997) and refused to get treatment because he knew that God would heal him, and it came true. Christ healed him of his throat cancer and to this day, it hasn't returned. Also, my mom had uterus cancer in 1986 and the doctors only gave her ten days to live but my dad and grandma prayed for her, and today after 20 years later...shes fine and praising the Lord.

Please no criticizing or hate comments....

i know each person has a different opinion on this, i'm just curious if any athiests believe that we have the power to create our experiences, both indivdually and collectively. it follows the law of cause and effect but on an esoteric level.

I ask this in all honesty and goodwill, to all those who have a curiosity to know what people think about God in their lives. So this is my own answer to my question to show an example: “Reveal to Humanity the Truth.” Or what would that short sentence be?

I have noticed my religion-curious questions have often been met by contempt or the advise to "feel something". I am not religious and tend to respect others for who they are. Yet I am often met by religious folks who look down on my ideas and lifestyle. How come? As far as I know it should be religious people practising respect! Is that respect limited only to like-minded souls?

After all, Christmas isn't the only holiday being celebrated this time of year. We have Yule, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, probably others I'm not even aware of. Even if not, There's still three others besides Christmas. So why are some people so mad about stores and such saying Happy Holidays or Seasons Greetings instead of Merry Christmas?

They're only being fair, after all. It'd be pretty presumptuous to say only Merry Christmas when not everyone celebrates the same holiday. So why throw a fit and boycott stores that are being fair to everyone and force Christmas to be the only holiday recognized by stores when it's not the only holiday being celebrated?

I'm not saying everyone goes to this sort of extreme. I'm an atheist who'd rather be wished a Happy Holiday, but I don't start suing and boycotting anytime someone says Merry Christmas. I just don't see what all the fuss is about when stores are trying to be fair and neutral to all customers and whatever holiday they happen to celebrate.

I just don't understand what is so hard to get? Nature is filled with failed attempts at existence. Why do species go extinct, while some live on to pass on their genes?

What is so hard about natural selection. You do know that we have genes and DNA right? So why can't you believe that some of the weaker or less usefull traits die off, while the stronger traits get passed on? Instead you create a complex explanation based in fantasy and faith?

I just don't get why all the resistence to the world being round?

to be honest, he started from heaven and in the end ended up back in heaven. Did he honestly "sacrifice" John 3:16 for God so loved the world that he GAVE his only begotten Son. Not sacrificed. Also when you sacrifice you gain something God hasn't gained us, just given us a way to heaven through Jesus. Someone help a lost Christian boy,

My undersatnding is man nor animal ate meat before God allowed Noah to after the flood....Other than the Bible, which is proof enough, are there any other sources which have an alternate theory other than the theory that dinasaurs like T-rex ate meat?

-- She is the mother of God

-- She is the woman refered to in Genesis that will bear a "seed". This means conceive a child as a virgin.

-- It also says that she will crush the head of the serpent.

-- She is the "new Eve" that said "yes" to God

-- She is "full of grace"

-- Elizabeth, who was significantly older, said to Mary, "...Who am I that the mother of my Lord should come to me..." Elizabeth honored Mary even tho Elizabeth was the elder.

-- It is Mary's who is "blessed" (Luke 1:48)

-- Mary was present at Pentacost (the birth of the Church)

keep asking questions about religion, or giving answers that are anti religion? Do you not realize that you are in the religion and spirituality section? I can understand if your trying to find religion and find your way to God...But if not then shouldnt you find another section to harrass? Such as mythology and folklore? I think that that is an appropiate place for you to spread your myths about God....Becuase here we all know he's real...
