Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ah, I see. Well, science that is against Christian beliefs will try to bring people who believe in God down and bury them in the soil if they can.

Science truly doesn't have that much on us since evolution is a "theory" and they try hard to explain things and I will tell you that people like "evidence". God made everything in this world and it explains that in Genesis, of course. God also made animals and bugs to be able to do certain things on their own - a lot of creatures defy evolution because they do things on their own for survival and if they would've messed that up the first time then there would probably be no more left. I mean, how does a caterpillar know when it's time to make a cocoon so it can turn into a butterfly? How does a bombardier beetle shoot out chemicals that produce a burning hot spray without harming itself? How does a giraffe get a drink without blocking blood flow to its' brain? God had to have made them all, each equipped with the skills they need for survival!

If it's something other than evolution then that is also understandable. Scientists can sometimes be uncomfortable because they want to "logically" explain everything in this world. The problem is is that not everything is meant to be understood and they've taken something such as the beauty of a rainbow and have broken it up into little tiny light particles. Scientists may have great explanations for things, but we need to make sure what is right with God first before believing anything that we hear or see.

A lot of people in this world feel uncomfortable with believing in something that they can't see, touch, or feel. Some people feel an insecurity with that because they feel that they can't be close to something that they cannot see. That is why we need to have faith, and here is the perfect definition:

Hebrews 11:1 NIV:

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

*If it is God's presence you can't feel then that is also a problem. To be able to feel the Holy Spirit, we need to read his word and spend time with God daily. This is a commitment, but it is one that is definitely worth it, a lot of fun, and one that helps believers in their daily walk with Christ.

I remember when I went to a church that didn't believe in things that were Biblically right, I did not know that because I didn't read the Bible and questioning the church was well...out of the question. Although, they tried to justify what they believed that wasn't Biblical by twisting scripture to make it fit the situation. I knew God existed, but I just wasn't excited going to church and let the Bible collect dust in my closet. I always felt terrible about myself and thought I lacked faith or there was something wrong with me. There was a problem with the church, but also a few problems with myself as well. Once I met the man of my dreams and he was able to explain Biblically right principles to me by showing me the Bible and explaining with scripture and historical context of the time - I understood. I cried so much and felt terrible about the way I had lived and burst out of my shell and felt brand new. I felt I had truly accepted God and I felt so glad and sad at the same time.

I totally got into reading the Bible a lot more and questioning it as much as possible in order to truly understand. I will tell you that questioning isn't wrong and it will help you grow if you make sure you understand what you didn't understand before. I encourage you to read the Bible daily if you don't already and grow in Christ.

Praying and alone time with God's word helps and God and Jesus are your best friends. They will not leave you and you can turn to them and serve them for a lifetime. As believers, we will suffer and that is guaranteed, but when we have God and a Heavenly home waiting for us, that should be the least of our worries.
