What I Believe ===> vintagechick66@aol.com
As a true Christian, I believe in the Triune God, God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Although, contrary to what some people else believes on this site, I believe that God created the world. What do you think? We evolved from monkeys? Hahaha. Science may explain a lot of things about the world, but not everything. Science is just a thing, a study, a subject you learn in school. It's not something you can follow and live your life by.
Also, yes, in the Middle Ages the religious leaders did carry out vouchers about how if you wanted to go to heaven, you needed to pay so much, etc., etc. Everyone makes mistakes. It wasn't the people's fault about what they thought about God. That is what they were taught. The religious leaders preached differently and changed what the Bible meant. The religious leaders were fools. It's just like how we elected Bill Clinton and look what he did in office. He almost got himself impeached. It wasn't anyone's fault but his. In the Middle Ages, the church was falling apart. Finally, Martin Luther posted his 95 Thesis on the door of the church to tell about the true God, forgiveness of sins, and Jesus Christ. From that period on, people started to question the religious leaders.
I am very happy with my religion. I am Lutheran and enjoy it very much. It gives me a peace of mind knowing that I was created for a purpose. I know that there is a God because I have faith. The Bible teaches us to have faith in God no matter what. He forgives my sins, loves me, and protects me this day. He sent His only son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for us today. He was prosecuted today, Maundy Thursday. He will die tomorrow for the world's sin and rise again on Sunday. I will praise His name forever.
Imagine having a son, whom you love deeply. He was special and he had a purpose. He was going to save the lives of everyone on this earth. One day, he went out with some friends. He told you before he left that he was going to die today and for you not to worry for you will see him one day again. Imagine how you would feel to give up your only son. That's how God felt.
I can't explain all the corruption in our world. I can only control my own life and beliefs. I know for a fact that I would probably be in the ground and be burning in Hell if I didn't believe in God. He saved me from harming myself. I don't know what I would do without Him. I am sad for the people who don't have a belief in God. Then only will they find security with their lives. Everything happens for a reason, even if it is good or bad. I truly believe that. God's will will be done, as much as we'd like to change that. God Bless & Keep the Faith. Thanks for listening.
