Please tell them that Romans says that the wages of sin is death not eternal torment, that God is much more loving and forgiving than to punish anyone unjustly. Please also tell them that from the moment Adam and Eve sinned that God made a way out of the sin which would be passed on through their children for any who would be willing to accept this provision from him. Please also tell them that the earth began to be inhabited as a paradise and that God has never changed his desire for it to be that way. Please also tell them that God has not lost them--that he just waits for them to want to find him.......Psalm 83:18 says his name is Jehovah...and John 17:3 says they can have everlasting life by taking in knowledge of him and of his son, Jesus Christ.

I definitely agree with the other two post that said they should believe what they can read. It is written that we are to learn the Bible line upon line and precept upon precept. Don't let anyone smooth talk u into believing something that is not written.
For instance we have an obligation in obtaining God's forgiveness that many people don't like to mention. We have to REPENT in order to be forgiven (change those ways). Many people will just keep saying they are sorry like HE is stupid. Just like we would get tired of our significant other cheating and keep just saying they are sorry. I know the God who kicked Adam out of the Garden and Destroyed Sodom & Gommorah, Flooded the earth except 8 people is the same yesterday today and forever and will not have a problem doing the smack down on sinners now.
He is Long-Suffering, (giving us a chance to get it together) but His Kindness should not be taken for weakness.
Tell the teens to live by the book and don't even start bad habits that may or put themselves in compromising situations that can lead to sin (transgression of His Law - 1John 4)or a struggle to break sinful habits.

They need to know that they are 'no different' than any of God's other children. That all that they will do, and HAVE DONE, has been done before by MILLIONS of others.. that it is theire path to learn from what they do wrong, and they 'will' do wrong...
after all, 'the gift that God grants us, in this life, is to become aware of the differences and meanings of right and wrong' so that when a wrong is done, it is 'truly realized,' and when it is truly realized, true forgiveness follows.. as well as the right path on which to trod.

I think today's youth...and most adults for that matter need to learn about respect and treating others the way they would like or should like to be treated. My 7 yr. old daughter is constantly teased because she has vitiligo...and she takes it so well...she says their parents never taught them better than that...so...I reallt believe that any positive message you deliver will be great. Good Luck to you!

well i am a youth myself and one thing i want to know is the truth about god the truth about what he did. i get confused alot with what people tell me but not what actually comes from the book so i guess tell them the truth from the book and not from the word of mouth

PRAYING! It;s very uncomfortable for new christians and also christians that have been christians for a long time. It's hard and people need to realize that God already knows what they want to say, he just wants them 2 say it

That God is the same as Love. That the Creator forgives you endlessly; you only have to ask...

Without God there is an emptiness inside and our bodies cannot function without its Creator, therefore it yearns for Him.

That:
Allah the ALmighty is one, no one shares his attributes and entity.
He has no children and he is not a child of anyone
No one matches him
he does not need anything

About how God will always love them no matter how bad you mess up, or how Jesus died from them so they should live for him, or how God is there for you even when it feels like no one is. hope this helps
