You are not supposed to want Hitler, Stalin, Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Wade Watts or someone like Ian Watkins to go to hell. I've never once wished that someone would go to hell and at this point in time I find that idea to be very strange. As if them going to hell helps the vi…

Born in France around 1295 and died in the early 14th century after devoting his life to helping plague victims in Italy. Saint Roch became the patron saint of dogs because a dog helped him during his trying moments. That God-sent dog would lick his sores and bring him bread whe…

Ten years ago, I was raped and became pregnant. I was angry with my rapist, and I knew immediately that I wanted absolutely nothing to do with him. My family sent me to another part of the country to stay with relatives. We did not tell my rapist or his family that I was pregnan…

I know the evolution theory of how we came from apes or how it started with a fish evolving into a fish with legs to something else but I’m curious if there are any scientists that believe in Christianity instead or possibly believing both, I don’t mean to be disrespectful if it…

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, I want to ask you if you can pray for my sister. She got into the "new age", she's being deceived. She thinks Jesus is an "ascended master"... I'm very concerned for her soul. Thank you all

I (26F) have had a very complicated journey with Jesus. I was raised in a very traumatic church environment (highly legalistic, women were second class citizens and mental health struggles of any kind were a fault of your own). My parents split when I was young. I have a untreat…

Why is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints aka the Mormon Church seen as a separate religion from Christianity? Is it solely due to the rejection of the Nicene Creed? If so, why aren't other groups that reject the Nicene Creed seen in the same way? For example, the S…

I'm sure I'm not the first to notice this, but as I was doing my daily Bible reading, these verses jumped out at me. God says that He, Himself, will seek out His sheep, and will rescue them on a day of clouds and thick darkness. This is fulfilled in the crucifixion, where we, Go…

I am not any religion currently but I am curious to see from a Christian perspective why they think it's true? There are a lot of religions and one of them must be true.

Hey, I saw a reply where someone was arguing about eternal punishment, and they explained that the punishment itself isn’t necessarily eternal, but that the fire is, meaning God could ultimately perish those who aren’t given eternal life. My question is, why is that viewed as sh…

I had the opportunity to tour some beautiful cathedrals in Chicago this week. Saint Clement Church was by far my favorite. Christians today are terrified of the zodiac because they are taught to fear it by church leaders who do not understand it. But some of the most intelligent…

I usually prolong my "Ayyy" and then men because that's what I usually hear. My classmates think it's charisma and my religion teacher even scolded me and did a whole lecture about saying amen properly and that it has a meaning and purpose. I felt very angry and pissed off becau…

Please pray for me as I look for a new church. I’m a 36-year-old man, so finding a church with people around my age would be especially helpful. If you know of any that be great 😊

I wasn’t around then, but from how I’ve seen it portrayed on tv, and some stories from my grandma, they were ready to get rid of anything that seemed slightly demonic. Things like metal music and DnD. Was this real? I play a good amount of dnd and so far I haven’t summoned any d…
