The s**cide epidemic is heartbreaking, far too many people are suffering in silence. If you’re in that place right now, or you know someone who is, please reach out and don’t face it alone. Get the help you need, but also turn to Christ. When life feels completely hopeless, He o…

I’ve spent probably too many hours debating these liberal “Christian’s” What amazes me about the sub is how many times quoting scripture gets down voted I also find it funny how atheists feel so comfortable there because there really isn’t that much difference in their ideology…

It's so funny when you notice small things in the bible. For example the book mark was written by John Mark a companion of Peter who wrote his Gospel based on the eyewitness accounts and preaching of the Apostle Peter. (That's what Google says). And it's really funny how in matt…

Seek the Lord with all your heart. Open your heart to Jesus Christ, put your trust in Him, and experience the love, mercy, and grace that only God can give. No one who sincerely seeks the Lord ever seeks Him in vain. Many people spend their lives searching for peace, purpose, an…

Hi, I'm 18M from Ghana 🇬🇭 and I have a question that's been on my mind. Just for some background information, I am a virgin and I don't watch porn but yet I have intense sexual urges, sometimes so intense I can't sleep, it keeps me up for hours. After discussing this issue wit…

Edit: I've just opened the Bible app and the verse of the day is Proverbs 17:17 “ friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity”. I rarely open that app and I just thought this was an interesting coincidence to share I'm lonely. I struggle to make frie…

I need to get this off my chest. Almost every friend I have who I know follows Christ has a vast majority of their family on fire for Jesus. Their parents, their siblings, their cousins, etc. And me? The majority of my family is either lukewarm or just don't believe in Jesus at…

It does not depend on desire or effort...then what the heck is repentance? I keep putting so much effort into repenting and spinning my wheels trying to stop every single sin and I desire salvation so much, but I'm not getting anywhere. I backslide I relapse. I fight myself toot…

I'm a Christian but lately I've been questioning my faith severely, with divine hiddenness being one of the main reasons. I can't find an answer for this question, and it is making my faith feel awful. I honestly don't know if I can have much faith at all without some kind of un…

In Genesis 3, the serpent tells Eve, “You will be like God…” They take the fruit. In Philippians 2:6, Paul says of Christ: ”…who, existing in the form of God, counted not the being on an equality with God a thing to be grasped…” I wonder whether Paul is intentionally inviting us…

Like i understand, even if I tthink its somewhat cruel, for people who have seen God and rejected him being sent to hell. but most non belivers would probably have fairh if they had an interaction with God. How can i cope with that fact that these people are sent to hell? especi…

I’ve been going through some medical issues that have more or less broken me. It’s been months of misery and it will only get worse from here if I don’t heal properly. Possibly years of hell. I have nothing left but God. My faith is so shaky, and has been for a while now, becaus…

It is certainly the case that a book does not have to be canonical to be useful and to contain truth. The Bible often quotes extra-biblical sources, such as Paul quoting Epimenedes in Titus, without elevating those sources to the status of inspired scripture. The issue with Jude…

Hi there! My Bible study and I are differing in opinion about these verses. Did the people in the crowd KNOW that Jesus was born in Bethlehem and that he was a descendant of David when they made their argument that he can’t be the Messiah? Did they believe he was born and raised…
