Answer 1

You don't. You are perfect in your own creation. The words of men have corrupted many people into believing that, if someone does not believe as they do, they are somehow inferior ("bad", "wrong", evil"). They woulf have you believe they are acting out of "love" but it is more they are acting out of "control". they are controlled by the words of other men and they would have you fall under that control as well.

Most of these people do not believe in free will or free thought, they read and interpret the words men wrote in the Bible, or listen to other men's interpretations of the same and think you need to be like them.

They don't like these ideas because of what it implies about them, but...well just watch the "thumbs down's" :)

THERE IS ANOTHER LIFE AFTER THIS,ALL HUMANS WERE GIVEN A SOUL,GOD SENT HIS SON,JESUS CHRIST TO DIE FOR OUR SINS,SO THAT WE MAY HAVE LIFE ETERNAL. THE BOOK OF JOHN 3:16.

Re:20:2: And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

Re:20:4: And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Re:20:5: But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Re:20:6: Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
Re:20:7: And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
Re:20:8: And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

Answer 3

Hello and lets find out why one needs to be saved in Gen.3 when Mankind first sinned they as it were pulled the plug on life and because we are related to them we now instead of having the nature of life of God we now have the nature of death, in Isaiah 14:12-15 we find that satan has/had a "i" problem, and in Isaiah 53 we learn that Jesus has just the opposite. In Heb.1:5-9, 13:8, John 8:58 Where Jesus is called THE I AM of Exodus 3 we learn Jesus IS GOD, He came after creating us [John 1] and became flesh like us and when He returned to Heaven He did not take back His divine body He kept the one He had while here with the marks He got, JUST FOR YOU, and the "reason" you need to be saved is from "i" from yourself, we live in a world that everyone dies in but Jesus came to save you and to give you eternal life, "IF" you meet the conditions upon which life is offered say like John 14:15 "IF" you Love me [then] Keep my commandments [not suggestions] find out more free bible lessons www.amazingfacts.org email me also [e-mail] God bless

Answer 4

Before you were in the womb God knew you. That means you were not created for this world full of good and evil. You asked to come here to have an opportunity to choose good over evil because that is your birthright. You were not created in sin and will never feel comfortable having to deal with guilt, shame, fear, and grief. We were not designed or equipped with the ability to deal with evil because there was none in heaven. That is why we need the Spirit of truth to show us the way. It is a more excellent way because will power is not a factor.

Answer 5

Sin separates us from God, eternally, unless we are born again of his spirit. If we reject God, then we suffer eternally in a place not like the worst place we've ever been in here on earth, or the worst experience. It's indescribably worse.

The blood Jesus Christ shed on the cross saves us from our sin.

Answer 6

Because we are born with a sinful nature and we have to choose God to be saved. He gave us free will----it's up to you!
Choose to live for God---there's no better life!

Answer 7

So you can enter the kingdom of heaven..

Answer 8
