I do not understand how people could be so dedicated to their region and have so much faith – I mean I was brought up Christian and went to a Catholic school and I was taught religion but I have a hard time just believe everything I’m told I mean I really want to have more faith but I have no reassurance ….do you think this is wrong I don’t choose to unsure with my faith its just the way I see it.

True faith is not from believing everything we are told.  Faith does come by hearing but you need to hear from God.  That you are unsure does not mean you have no faith.  It means that you need to listen to God within and not just voices all around you.

People will tell you anything, but if you meditate on the words of the Bible you will begin to hear the true God.  Find a few scriptures that speak to you and spend a little time everyday thinking about what they mean.

As to faith, consider 2nd Timothy 2:13:

If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.

One Response to “Faith?????????”

  • There’s NOTHING wrong with questioning one’s religion. I, too was brought up catholic, and went to their OWN books (because I didn’t trust anyone else at the time) to study up on what they stood for. I came to my own conclusions, and I suggest you do the same. Christianity is the THINKING MAN’S FAITH, it is NOT, however a particular religion. It is a relationship with GOD, not something that can be achieved through something that man tells you to do. The Bible says to "study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."

    If your heart is searching, God will show you the truth.

    God bless you in your way.
