Are you a Christian? do you believe in God and that Jesus was raised from the dead? There are a lot of beliefs out there I am sure. But do you believe Jesus died on the cross to save us? I do. I have believed this every since I was little and was baptized. What do you think?

I believe that Jesus is the Christ. I also believe in the Trinity, thus believing in Jesus is believing in God which is believing in the Holy Spirit (Ghost). I was raised a Christian and while having explored other faiths find that it fits best with what I feel on the inside.
However, I do feel a kinship to other faiths. It's interesting that the God of three of the major religions in the world is in essence the same God, whether you call Him God, Allah, or Jehovah. I believe that God's ultimate goal is for His children to come to Him. That there are multiple routes to that seems only to make sense. God is limitless, what is there He cannot do?

Allowing God to lead your life is a recipe for happiness. However, I think it is also important to remember that God gave us a mind and free will. While opening ourselves to His will is important, it's also important to utilize the tools He gave us.

That's a part of our relationship with God that many people seem to forget. A relationship with God is work. You have to put yourself in to it. Just sitting in church on Sunday not really actively participating isn't what God wants. I truly believe that God wants us to be Him as much as is humanly possible. To achieve that we have to meet Him halfway.

You are very right God did give us our mind and we do have a free will. God will always see us through every thing if we put him first and his word. We all need a relationship with God but we have to make that happen in our lives. If we just sit back it will never happen.

I'm a christian and I believe in God but sometimes I just think he hates me. I know as a christian I shouldn't be doing that. It just seems like my life is so hard and most people around me have it so much easier and it's like nothing's getting better for me and i'm going no where in life and I just wonder why me. I know that's part of life and i'm not alone even though I feel like it and God has a plan for everyone but I just question it sometimes.

everyone has questions and some people do feel the same way you do. I have done the same thing to myself at times. And I have always asked when I was going through real hard times why aren't you helping me Lord? But he in his word says hes done all he can do for us. We have to take his word and use it toward what we are going through. The more we have Gods word in us the more God can move in our lives. Nothing is ever easy in this life. We just have to take it one day at a time. And we should put God first everyday. It makes our day easier when we do. God bless

Some people believe some people don't. But the ones that don't believe should ask there selves this question. How did everyone get here on this earth without being made? Who made us? There is only one answer to that. It was God who created heaven and earth and man and women.
