“When you argue against Him you are arguing against the very power that makes you able to argue at all: it is like cutting off the branch you are sitting on.” I got that quote from Mere Christianity. God is omnipotent and He is all- powerful. He knows and sees everything, God is unlike Santa Claus, God is something to really believe in. God has given C.S. Lewis a very intriguing way to spread his word. Mere Christianity has many ideas on faith and truth that helps my walk with the Lord.
God has revealed himself in many different ways throughout Christian faith. He gives Christians insights in ways they know are understanding and can be used with logical reasoning. He lets us see him through his divine creations. We see God at church weekly when he comes to
Sitting in church on a cold Sunday in January, the hair on the back of my neck stood up as my pastor preached a sermon that, for once, made me feel like she was speaking directly to me. I’m not an extremely religious person; I don’t go to church every Sunday or pray at night before I go to sleep. I just go through the motions. But this time was different. “The time we spend in between leaving home and finding our way back home is where people gain the ability to grow into their full potential.” Those words spoke to me, and I was reeled in, just like the rest of the congregation, wondering what our Pastor was going to say next.
Living Christianity / Faith There is so much negativity and judgement in this world. There needs to be more believers in Jesus Christ. Having more believers will make things better. It will also help to guide other people that need guidance on the right path to righteousness. There are so many people that do not understand the truth about living the right way when it comes down to following Jesus Christ. People who are surrounded by a church community, will have an easier life being a Christian, will be guided by the Ten Commandments, and will learn to have a loving heart for others.
Faith is far from being easy. If your faith is placed in something you can’t see, then it’s usually hard to act on that faith unless you are deeply rooted and involved in it. Actions prove how much faith you have. Without proof, your declaration of faith does not mean much.
My faith has been very important to me and my family since my birth. I was baptized at Broad Street United Methodist Church by Rev. Mark Ale on January 17, 1993. The reason my faith has played such a vital role for me is mainly due to my Mom’s United Methodist influence. After my Dad began to live on his own he grew distant and stopped going to Church until he married my Mom, and she told him that a condition of being married to her was that they would go to either her Church or his Church every week. When I stated Kindergarten my parents and I were attending Holy Name Roman Catholic Church each week and decided to raise me as a Catholic, so I was brought into the Catholic Church not missing any sacraments due to my valid United Methodist
Christianity Christianity is the belief in God, Jesus, his son, and the Holy Spirit. Christians believe that God’s son, Jesus, was born from a virgin, died on a cross for the sins of the world and rose again after three days. They believe that God created everything from the water, to the air and sky, to animals, to humans, absolutely everything. Christians also believe in a place after death that reunites God and all his creation.

The term ‘religious experience’ can come up with a wide range and diverse series of images. We might assume that it can include anything from a prayer, to attending a service at a place of worship, to even ‘hearing the voice of God’. The argument for the existence of God based on religious experience is in fact a posteriori as it is based on people’s encounters with God. Unlike other arguments, the argument is based on a direct link to God - if we are able to show that God is experienced then we therefore cannot deny his existence. Many people are more likely to believe something if it has been experienced. Our experience of God is the best evidence we have that God exists.
In our community there are many different and diverse faiths, and my experiences with people of different faiths were very unique and delightful. When I was small my parents always taught me to respect other people’s faiths and beliefs as you would like them to respect your beliefs because if you discriminate people for those believing in a different faith will not make you a better person but it will hurt you in the future and I thanks my parents for that wonderful teaching because of that for me meeting people of other faiths than mine does not change my attitude towards them, for example I would act or have the same attitude, or opinion towards a Jewish the same as I would act towards a Muslim. Me being a Hindu and going to a catholic
Faith Stance Essay My family has never been very religious. I never attended church regularly, not even on Easter. My Dom and Dad both grew up Baptist. My Dad went to church often while my mom did not. They both maintained similar values even though one went to church more than the other.
I would honestly be grateful to attend PBA and it will be an honor, there can be many schools out there that have a great medical field but why bother if when you have a first opinion you have to work hard to achieve it. I do not easily give up without a fight. I am very hard working and I will not stop until I achieve what I aimed for. What is success without faith if you ask me, it is everything. Many people give up on their goals due to not getting help from their parents or someone else. However, I have the help and love from my family and teachers at my school. I always attended church on Sundays and more important on my birthdays, it is a great way to give thanks.
The apostle Paul always referred to faith and fear all the way from Romans to II Timothy. But do we really know the true meaning of faith and fear? Fear itself has multiple meanings and so does faith. Faith is normally associated with trust, God, and religion in general. Fear, on the other hand, can be expressed differently. In Christianity, we have a fear of the Lord. This does not mean we actually fear and run away from him, we awe at his glory. Other than Christians, most people relate fear to death and phobias. As you can see, fear and faith is displayed differently.
We rushed to the car and my driver sped away. I had never been to the city or the church where they were taking me. I knew nothing about it or even how this last minute decision happened. I laughed inside as I contemplated how one goes from not speaking to speaking in the blink of an eye. I just smiled and asked the Lord to give me something to share.
