hese days ,i often read Bible,GOD is becoming close to me.but when i think this strange logic that if one person has not good heart, the second has not good heart,the third has not good heart,so conclusion would be that everyone maybe having not good heart.but i can not accept this conclusion,i firmly want to believe in god,god ofen make me warm.but the logic strange makes me hesitated to fully follow the god,maybe this logic is ridiculious,but i can not get rid of it.i hope some people would comment this,and giving me some advice to follow God!

We are sinners saved by grace by the shed blood on Calvary .That is if we have made a decision to come
into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ .If
have not sadly you are bound to Hell a ever lasting
fire with no way of escape to be found .

God created everything including man very good. But as a person grows, he invents many things and become evil. God through the Holy Bible tells us the things that are good and so we should follow the things that God determines to be good and not ourselves or anybody else's determination of what is good. We should be subjected to God and not to man. We will be following God if we follow the Holy Bible.

The way every coin has two sides same is with human beings, good and evil lie at opposite side. Alternatively it can be said that every human being does have a goodness in his heart along with evil. What is important is that what you want to see. If you consider others good at heart then the same vibes reach the other person and you feel him to be good. So it depends on your attitude what you want to see in a person.

Hi mari,
I'm so glad that you are wanting to know more about God and have a personal relationship with Him.
I want you to know this: God loves you! He loves you more than you will ever be able to comprehend! He sent His one and only Son, Jesus Christ, to come and die in your place for your sins. That is how great His love is for you!
It is so good that you are reading His Word, the Bible. Ask God to help you understand what He is saying to you in His Word. I would also recommend that you find a good Bible-believing church to attend regularly. Ask God to help find the right church for you.
Repent (turn away) of your sins. Ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart. Ask Him to be Lord and Savior of your life. He will do it! We cannot live the Christian life on our own. We are too weak. But Christ helps us to live the way He taught us to. He strengthens us, blesses us, comforts us, and gives us great assurance! We also have the aweome Promise of Eternal Life!
God wants you to know Him. He created you and you are His child.
Pray daily. God hears our prayers and He does answer them. Put your complete trust and faith in Him. He promises to never leave you or forsake you.
God bless you and have a Merry Christmas!:)

Well it's hard giving advice because there are many things in the bible which makes no sense to me at all and i won't buy it blindly as some others do.
I have a lot problems reading the bible as i can't accept some things which are in there like homosexuality and people who don't believe are going to hell even if they did good on life.It doesn't make sense at all so i stopped reading the bible.I do believe in God but i jsut can't trust the book i can trust on the feeling in my heart as he gave me the heart.
