Because clearly, you are doubting Jesus as the only way to God

2020-12-30 15:21:18 UTC  

This is part of what turns people away from Christianity.

2020-12-30 15:21:42 UTC  

The fact that people question yet get questioned for questioning

2020-12-30 15:21:57 UTC  

Its good for people to question because it means they care.

2020-12-30 15:23:14 UTC  

There is also a difference between saying truth and non truth

2020-12-30 15:23:34 UTC  

But there are ways to spread truth without turning people away

2020-12-30 15:23:34 UTC  

Either Jesus was always the messiah or he wasn't

2020-12-30 15:23:48 UTC  

He either died on the cross for our sins or faked it

2020-12-30 15:24:08 UTC  

No there isn't

2020-12-30 15:24:21 UTC  

Jesus spoke truth and people turned away

2020-12-30 15:24:33 UTC  

Paul spoke truth and people turned away

2020-12-30 15:24:51 UTC  

Now, people speak truth and people turn away

2020-12-30 15:25:02 UTC  

Not everyone who hears the truth will be saved

2020-12-30 15:25:52 UTC  

*sighs*
There are ways to speak truth to people who are questioning without turning them away. Some people just won't listen, but those who are willing to listen need to be told by the right person in the right way.

2020-12-30 15:27:54 UTC  

I constantly question. But I know what I believe to be true. God healed my knee. I was part of a miracle I didn't expect. I know God loves me from that. The reason I am being blunt is because I don't want you questioning every moment

2020-12-30 15:28:37 UTC  

The part I question is because I don't spend the time I should reading and delving into God's word to k ow the truth as a solid rock

2020-12-30 15:28:39 UTC  

I'm 14, of course I'm going to question. I have my life ahead of me, miracles awaiting. Just right now I'm not certain.

2020-12-30 15:28:50 UTC  

There is no more hidden truth.

2020-12-30 15:29:10 UTC  

At 14 I was a rebel

2020-12-30 15:29:39 UTC  

I gave up trying to be a goodie two shoes because the world could have been my friend

2020-12-30 15:29:48 UTC  

I messed up that young

2020-12-30 15:30:03 UTC  

If you question something, go to the Bible first.

2020-12-30 15:30:12 UTC  

See if you can find the answer there

2020-12-30 15:30:38 UTC  

But if what I'm questioning is the Bible that would just confuse me more.

2020-12-30 15:30:52 UTC  

No

2020-12-30 15:31:03 UTC  

The Bible sharpens itself

2020-12-30 15:31:22 UTC  

There may be confusing parts, but you can ask someone to explain it

2020-12-30 15:32:27 UTC  

But even if I ask them, doesnt mean they have it right, either

2020-12-30 15:33:07 UTC  

Ask God for clarity

2020-12-30 15:33:17 UTC  

You also have a whole chat group here

2020-12-30 15:33:37 UTC  

We would be more than happy to point you to even different youtube videos

2020-12-30 15:33:47 UTC  

But something to look into

2020-12-30 15:33:51 UTC  

Homiletics

2020-12-30 15:34:00 UTC  

It helps

2020-12-30 15:34:51 UTC  

I just- Right now is confusing, and it's going to take me a while to find out what I believe. Right now I don't think this can help me, only turn me away more. But thank you for trying to help.

2020-12-30 15:35:33 UTC  

I'll be praying for you

2020-12-30 15:36:38 UTC  

Please be careful though as you look into things

2020-12-30 16:18:48 UTC  

I kind of agree with Kit, but I'm glad you are trying to take the steps to find out for yourself. In my religion one of the most important things to us is to find out for ourselves whether or not we believe in the things we are taught. Even at the end of our book of Mormon we are told to ask God whether or not the things in the book are true. So personally, I think you should just keep asking. By asking (with the right mindset of course) we humble ourselves and come to God looking for answers. In that state (I have found personally) that it is easier to receive them if it is the right time or right question. I had some trials of faith when I was 14 as well. I made some mistakes, but they helped me come closer to God. So just be sure that when you are asking, do it with the intent to learn for yourself, and to learn the truth.

Thought it was pretty good
