Thread: Hey Everyone, i am a searchning "atheist"

  1. #1

    Hey Everyone, i am a searchning "atheist"

    Hey, My name is Anthony and i am 17.

    I was born into a Christian family. I went to Church weekly as well as Youth Group Regularly. I also went to Christian Schools until high school. In the summer of 8th grade i started thinking about why i believe in God and the Bible, and i realized i really didnt know enough about the beliefs of Christianity and the Bible to call myself a Christian. I began searching and looking into many different faiths and beliefs other people have, as well as thought to myself. I am interested in learning more about Christianity and Jesus.

    I think people should spend just as much time trying to disprove their faith as they do trying to prove it , Because i think an unevaluated faith isnt much of one at all.

    I am really an open minded person, and joining this forum with the intention to learn(not argue or debate) about Christianity and eventually find out what i believe is true.

    Ask questions and il answer,
    Thanks everyone

    Hi and welcome to the board.


    ok..what "do" you believe? Everyone believes in something..so I hope you will share what you have faith in?

    You believe that when you breathe air you will go on living..yet you can't see the air you breathe. Faith is much like that.
    Hebrews 11:1-"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."

    I believe thet theres some kind of higher being than humans. i just want to get an unbiased look at everything in the world. people in iraq wouldnt be blowing themselves up and killing people unless they were raised to believe that. we think thats horrible, and i think it is too but they think their doing right. i dont want to believe something cause thats what i was raised to, but because i truely feel it is right.

    and you really dont have to believe in air to breath, its just there. i think faith is very different because there are so many different beliefs and theorys...and possibilitys we all have to consider

    God is also "there" whether you believe in Him or not. I do agree that you need to find the Lord yourself and not just accept it because someone else told you He was real. I think it is awesome that you are searching.
    Let me ask you this? Do you have any spiritual beliefs of your own?

    God isnt a Fact, like oxygen is...thats the difference i think.

    as far as spiritual beliefs not really right now, i dont think i am ready to make that call to say what i believe...i dont really know enough about it...

    my beliefs are
    There is something of a higher power,
    thats all im really for sure about right now, to what extent i am not sure

    Oxygen has to be a fact..or else it wouldn't exist? or would it? or does it?

    I appreciate you answers very much..I'm only asking you questions because that is what you requested.

    To you personally, who is Jesus Christ?

    I really appreciate your honesty..
    Do you think there is a heaven or a hell?

    That is perfectly ok...How about this? If you died tonight, where would you go? Do you ever wonder about that?

    I would tend to argue that God is indeed a FACT. When one studies Bible prophecy and all the things that have been foretold and fulfilled, there can only be conclusion. That there is indeed a God.

    Things have been foretold and fulfilled in the past, present, and we have confidence in the future. No man can tell very specific prophecies and have them ALL be right. Only God can do that. Nostradamus can't even start to compare, because he was mostly wrong.

    I understand that there is doubt with something you can't see, like if God peeked out of the sky and said here I am. But the Bible declares that if you seek him with all your heart, you shall find him. And you will see the hand of God in Bible prophecy if you keep searching. You won't learn everything about Bible prophecy overnight, but you will learn alot if you seek with an open heart that God is very much there in the background. He wants us to use faith in what we can't see. For that pleases him.

    God bless you in your search.

    my thoughts on that...
    If the Bible is true and there is a hell and heaven i dont think God would allow me to die right now, cause i am sincerely searching.

    Then you do have a belief in a God because you trust that He would preserve your life until you found Him...that's cool...

    Would it be ok if I shared some Scripture with you and you share with me what you think about each verse? We will just do one at a time?
