Keep in mind, the closer you are to God, the closer the devil will pull at your heart to get you away from Him and His word. You should look to God for guidance and renewal of a shakey faith, not us. Only He can bring you back to where you need to be....

It's a sad fact that so many people do not believe in God. I've seen some shocking things since I've been on Y/A. But you know what the bible says (Psalm 14:1) .....only the fool has said there is no God. Think about it. If someone can look around them and honestly think that we got here by chance, then they are truly a fool. Have a great day my friend. Me and you know there is a God (and millions of others), it's true man, God is there.

Easily, the Bible was written over a period of about 2,500 years by 40 distinct authors, ost of whom did not have the writings of the others for a comparison, and yet there are NO Contradictions in it, and the Greek and Hebrew Languages both have the similarity that they use letters to represent numbers, this has given rise to a Scientific Study of Theomatics. It provides conclusive proof that the Bible was inspired by a Higher INtellect than mankind. I am posting the best website on that topic, read it and you will be recharged.

Romans 8:38-39
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Remember John 3:16 and if you really need encouragement read all of John and Genesis.
Pray to God whenever you think of bad things like Christianity being a hoax because you know that inside it's true.
Just remember that the moment you pray to God the tide of the battle has turned.

This is a true story based on what I have experienced in my life: My husband was diagnosed with a benign Brain Tumor about 5 yrs ago, and at first he was fine...I mean he had seizures, but they weren't bad ones. About 3 1/2 years ago, there was a cancerous spot found on the tumor that the neurosurgeon removed from the tumor itself, which is inoperable by the way. He had to also have radiation and chemo just to ensure the cancer wouldn't come back! The doctor told me that in all honesty, statistically my husband would be dead way before now!! The prayers of my family, my friends, and also my husband are what have brought him through it since God can conquer any storm that is in your life!! If you truly believe that the Lord can do miraculous things for you then HE WILL!! It all has to do with your faith and trust in God above. I truly believe that if it wasn't for our strong faith and belief in the power of God, that my husband wouldn't be alive and doing as well as he is!!! He still has to go to the doctors, and he still has to take meds, but that is a far cry from being dead and buried!! Think about it, the choice is yours!! You have to know that in order to receive God's blessings in your life, you have to have faith & trust in HIM...you also have to do your part as a christian and be there for GOD, too!!

I am Christian and I think all religion is DEFIENTLY not a hoax. Christianity is something you live by and believe in, not a title. If it was some "horrible guy who just made up Christianity", does that mean he made up the Bible too? And churches? And prayer books?
Try reading Hebrews 11. It's all about faith :)

What is wrong with accepting the idea that God created man to live on the earth forever without death.?
The system we now know with man dying after only 70/80 years or sooner because of sickness or accident was not part of God's original plan.
Man brought death on himself.
(Genesis 2:16-17) And Jehovah God also laid this command upon the man: “From every tree of the garden you may eat to satisfaction. 17Â But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die.”
And Almighty God, THROUGH his son, Jesus, has lifted that inherited burden of death from us.
It will come into effect after Armageddon, when wickedness has been removed from the earth.
Psalms 37; 9,11,29,34
(Revelation 21:4) And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
FOR DEATH TO BE WIPED OUT, IT IS NECESSARY FOR US TO BE COMPLIANT.
And find the religion that obeys Matthew 28; 19,20
It requires searching.

Do not doubt God but keep the faith and abhor untruth of unbelief. Read your bible and pray. Know God for yourself. Draw near to God and he will draw nigh unto thee.All religion is not a hoax, only the religion that is not grounded on true christianity and God's holy spirit. God will always honor his word but is displease with the ones that is false in serving him. That is why G gives us the opportunity to repent of our sins daily to stay on course with him.So stay inspisred and get back to your 100% with the lord.

Stop worrying about your belief. The IRS and the Federal Reserve are the two biggest hoaxes forced on the American people. Worry about that and let your belief in God grow. Stop letting idiots depress you.

A lot modern Christianity is a combination of hebrew religious ideology and pagan tradition and imagery.
All religions are socially created...they borrow from each other and evolve over time, adding and discarding beliefs social views change. Does this make religion any less powerful? People who choose to live religious lives get something from it, and if it benefits them then who cares where it came from?
