(I’m not a nativ, so excuse my poor english )I don’t know where you stand now in your search for God and/or answers. But I would really like to find out.
You are right, church isn’t what Jesus supposed it to be. A lot of Christians (and I don’t mean the religion, but the believe - following Christ)are sick and tired of the nowadays “Christianity". This is why all of us found your article here.
I saw something very strange: a lot of emphasis on “going to hell".
The heart of Jesus was poured out in His last disscusion with His Dad: And I want them to know You, because that’s the eternal life. (paraphrasing, if interested, check John 17 - the heart of the good news).
It’s true there is a hell, a heaven, Bible as the Word of God (read it when wanting to talk to Him, to know Him, to find his thought), there is such thing of sin (that hurts the esence of God).

But THE IMPORTANT thing is the relationship with God, Jesus and Holy Spirit.
If anyone’s sincere in his search, there are answers. And if somebody is looking for God … you will find Him.

The genocid, the (s)exploitation of little baby girls in Thailand, the Holocaust … why do you blame God for it?

Being spiritual is one thing because not every question has been answered. Don’t look to religion for answers though: it fills in the gaps science hasn’t answered with good marketing.

If a certain drink makes me feel terrible and ill, i change over to another one thats better for me like white wine or different brand of beer. The fun starts over again. You making a first order logic error once again. and youre missing the point. you should be asking is drinking really good for you? No it isnt. many lives are ruined by it, families, health, murders occur, fights, car smashes etc etc the list goes on. Religion is exactly the same. It has been around for 6000 years plus minus. I look around and see more crime, evil and suffering than there was 6000 years ago, more creative and totally devasting crime. the whole planet is even dying cos we&#8217;ve done so much evil stuff to it in terms of pure negligence for money.<br /> So - ask your self. is religion doing the job it set out to do, regardless if its true or not? I dont think so. More ,lives have been lost, people tortured, animals sacrificed, rapes, imprisonment and even wars fought on the topic, the list is endless. Wweather inspired by god or man, it&#8217;s irrelevant. Its done it. Its time for it to go. I think 6000 years circa is enough time to give anything to prove itself - dont you? or should we give it more time? take your bibles, your parchments, scrolls etc and go quietly. there other better ideas out there that like humanism and utilitarianism that cacn and will do a far better job.Amen</p> Jenny -

But did not feel the presents of the Holy Spirit. I did not like going to Confession confessing my sins to a catholic preist. Later reading the Holy Bible Jesus said he was the mediator between us and the Father. Jesus has told us that we need a personal relationship with him. Its not about religion. The religious leaders are who had Jesus put to death.If you are not happy in a church and they are not preaching the word of God, Get into a spirit filled church. I am going to a penocostal church they Baptize,lay hands on the sick,oppressed,there is slaining in the spirit.Speacking in tongues. They preach of heaven and hell. I love church and to worship the Father God and his Son Jesus.</p> I was raised as a Catholic all my life. But did not feel the presents of the Holy Spirit.
