whats going on.......?

Question

i don't believe in god, but its not out of sacrilege, it's because i've never had much reason too, the idea of him scares me, but i still question his existence, i believe in angels, which are gods soldiers i think. and most of my music collection is against god, si if i believed in him, would this make me a hypocrit, and a sinner

Answer 1

It sounds like your disbelief in God is based on fear of what the existence of God would mean for your life. It's convenient for you if God does not exist. But shouldn't belief be based on more than personal convenience?

Answer 2

Okay, maybe it would help to think of it this way. Think of all the possible knowledge that there is. Thats a lot, yeah? Now think about how much of that the human race is privvy to. And how much of that you yourself have. Its probably not a lot in comparison, right?
So in amongst all of the knowledge that you don't have, it isn't impossible that God is somewhere to be found. Do you agree?
Right, (assuming you're still with me) maybe your not ready right now to make the next step and make a decision about whether you feel God exists or not, but you believe in his angels. I'm saying this because it isn't really possible to decide whether you think He exists or not unless you feel you just 'know' either way, but I'm thinking that if you believe in his angels maybe you already have some feeling about this sort of thing?

As for the music thing, a lot of music is said to be against God, and I have doubts as to how much of it actually is, but the important thing if you do decide to commit to God is that you love him. If you think your music stops you doing this then perhaps it would be hypocritical, but otherwise I can't see there being a problem.

I don't know how helpful that was, but if you want to message me please feel free and I'll do my best to make sense!

Answer 3

not neccesarily, you only listen to these things because that is what you are used to hearing and that is only what you hear around you..you are now questioning yourself and your own belief because ther is that belief still there that is bugging you.. like i said in my other answer if you carry on the way u are questioning Gods existence then do something about it. You are unhappy in one religion, there are also other religions out there which may provide you with better answers.. you need to gain this knowledge yourself because nobody is going to do it for you..I found it extremely hard grasping another religion but I feel so fulfilled in every aspect of life and that is what i needed. In this society everybody is so wrapped up in this world. They are confused, mindless and not at peace..I cant blame people to be like this, but God has given us a brain to use. whatever you decide I hope you are content and guided on the right path..God has given mankind free will, use your free will to be a folk of superior understanding and knowledge, that will make you less confused of a person.

Answer 4

I think what you have to ask yourself is this: How do you perceive your God to be, if you did decide to believe in Him? Is it the Christians idea of who God is that you can't get to grips with?

Maybe you could get used to the idea that God is just this ultimate force of good that envelops us all, but doesn't judge, and we are just as much a part of this God Force as God Himself? This is how I see God.

How we perceive our God is very personal to us, there is no right or wrong answer. Just as it's everyone right to believe there is no God or universal energy. Just because you listen to music that condems God, doesn't make you a hypocrit or a sinner, I don't believe in sin anyway, and that is my right. Just like what you do or do not believe in is yours.

Answer 5

A hypocrit is someone who tells others NOT to do something that they are doing themselves, you are not doing that. I believe that it's not so much that you don't believe in God,it sounds more like , you just don't know what to believe! I believe with all my heart that God is real! I think believing in God would only add more hope to your life! Ask him to let you know whats real,and recieve the answer! I hope all that you seek is opened to you!

Answer 6

>this make me a hypocrit, and a sinner fact they are lost church goers.[their is a lot of those in churches
today] No you don't have to do anything wrong to be a sinner says
the Bible Rom 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Psa 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
Thats why Jesus came because we can't save ourselves.When Adam
seined God told the Devil that he would come to earth as womans seed (Jesus)and reclaim everything that Adam and Eve lost when Eve was
deceived and Adam seined.in these verses Gen 3:14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. It is a sad thing but people get hurt because of some one Else's sin.That is what sin does it hurts the people you love most and Carry's you father out than you want to and keeps you longer than you thought it could.Adams sin effected everybody even if they live a moral lifestyle.
That is why Jesus came to save the lost (I was one of the listers) and
Jesus SAVED ME.Now when death comes or the Lord comes to take me home I will not be afraid.My Bible teaches me that when I take my last breath I will be with the Lord.2Co 5:6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
2Co 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
2Co 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
What is so wonderful is it is FREE to the poorest man or woman or child but Salvation was EXPENSIVE to GOD it cost his Only Begotten
Son to redeem us back from Adams Sin.It is up to you while the Lord is
drawing you Joh 6:44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
and He is through these words.Just pray and agree with God that you
know and agree with His Word that you are Lost then tell God you won't
to receive Jesus as your Lord and savior.If you believe with all your being that Jesus saved you according to the Bible you were Born of God
and you Life will start changing for the good.Joh 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
In Christ in Love,

Answer 7

Since you have a "fear of God" then I would expect that you do believe in his existence! Isn't it better to believe in God than not believe? Just imagine if you die a non-believer, and then find out that God is real, and you find out you are going to spend an eternity in Hell because Satan is also very real.

Answer 8

,We all fall short from the glory of God, and we get saved only by the grace and mercy of God.

I love to listen worship music. All music is from God, the lyrics tell more about songs. I rather praise God than mock Him.

The Bible says over 500 times " Fear not". I love to study the word of God. I have several different translations of the Bible, so I can go deeper with His word. Loving God is my JOY. It feeds my hunger for life. I want to be with my Lord after I die. As we have many choices here on the earth, there is only two choices what comes to eternity: hell and heaven. You get to choose. It is about the free will. Seek Him. He will knock on your heart's door, the handle is inside.

The Bible is God's love letters for you. God's life manual for us. Get to know Him through His word and He starts to feel more real. God loves you, that is the good news, Gospel.

The boy had never seen his father study a map so carefully. He asked his father, why are you looking at that map? His father smiled, this map shows the streets of the city to which we are going. They say there is work there, in the city. Then his father's smile became a little sad. I used to always know where I was, he said, but the world has changed. Now we are going where we have never been before. For that one needs a map.
The journey was long, and tbere was much time for though. After awhile, the boy again looked to his father. Father, my birthday is coming soon. I know that I should not ask for much, but there is one thing you could give me. I will give you whatever I can, son. What is it you want? The boy replied, A map. The father puzzled asked, why do you ask for a map.
The boy though carefully. He said, because I will be growing older, I will be going where I have never been before. And you said, for that, one needs a map.
The truth is, whether young or old, we are all going where we have never been before. Every day we face new demands, and new dangers. How are we to find our way safely through these? How are we to guide our families and especially our young ones? There are maps for every part of the world. But is there a map for the greatest journey of all, life itself?
" You do not know what will happen tomorrow. Whar is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. ( James 4:14)
How quickly this brief life passes. To ruin it by choosing a wrong road would be a terrible waste. How can we be certain that we have made proper preparation for what lies beyond death?
It is always sad to see someone deny their need of a Savior. However, your denial does not remove your need. The Bible clearly teaches that " it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgement " (Hebrew 9:27).
When Adam chose to sin rather than to follow God's commandments, physical and spiritual death resulted ( Gen. 2:3). Paul wrote in Romans 3:23 that " all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God ". On our own we can never measure up to God's sinlessness. Paul further wrote that " the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord " ( Rom. 6:23)
However, God loved mankind so much that He gave His only Son, to die and thus pay the penalty of our sins. Through Jesus' death, we can be eternally saved from the " Lake of Fire ". The bible calls this separation from God " Hell ".
We are saved to live forever with Him in heaven ( John 3:3,16-18) ( Rev. 20:10-15). Our eternity is determined by an act of our free will. We must accept God's gift of Salvation - eternal life in Jesus - before we die. ( John 3:36) declares, " He who believes in the Son, has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."
Jesus said, " I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me " ( John 14:6). Salvation comes as we accept Jesus as our personal Savior by turning from our own way and deciding to go God's way. Paul clearly pointed out God's way of Salvation by saying, " That if you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved " ( Rom. 10:9).
Hell was created for Lucifer ( the devil ) and those who follow him. Hell is a very real place and not a pleasant one.( Luke 16:19-20) Full consciousness in Hell is all to real by this story. Are you willing to spend your eternity with satan in Hell? Hell was not created for human beings, it was created for the devil and his angels and those who profess to follow him, whether knowingly or unknowingly.
To me the way seems clear enough. Accept Jesus now and receive the promise of eternal life in heaven.
