Okay, so this is a list of questions about the bible or christianity in general. Some of them are questions that non-believers have asked when I am trying to witness to them and I don't know that answer. Then some of them are questions that I just don't know. Some are just dumb but....here ya go -
If people never hear about Jesus(like people in China/Africa), do they go to hell?
How come we don't practice certain rituals like they do in the old testament?
The crucifixion is mentioned so many times in the bible, when did it actually happen? What book of the bible/chapter?
I don't believe in marriage, even the christian divorce rate is 50%
Who actually wrote the bible? And hasn't it been changed since it was written?
What is the deal with people speaking in tongues?
Why are there so many different denominations? and how did they come to be?
How is God 3-in-1? The holy trinity?
Can you lose your salvation?
How did Satan become Satan?
*How do I bring up the subject of God in a conversation with a non-christian?
I believe in God and all, but I don't recall a date that I accepted him into my life.
But I went to church when I was you and got baptized.
Why are there so many translations of the bible and is there a "best" one?
Why don't Baptists dance?
Okay, so what's the deal with pre-destination?
I don't get it, was Jesus Jewish? Did he have a Yamakuh?
What are the distinctive things that seperate Christianity from other religions? How do you know your right?
If we are saved by grace nowadays, how were people saved back in the days of the bible?
Why doesn't God just fight the devil?
Feel free to add comments, questions, concerns...whatever is helpful.

Prayer
So...I had a friend who asked me about wanting things in life. How we shouldn't settle for anything less(our purpose, a girl...etc). But what if our standards are too high?? What if we are "reaching" for the stars here? Well...I said that if you pray about what you want and it is something of God then give it time. Consistant prayer about what you want is what needs to happen here. Just keep praying. Talk about it with God. Is it something that will bring him Glory? I would say that with consistant prayer, God will bless you in his time and to his will. Being a christian is a selfless act. Everything is of God, our creator. So if he wants you to be a certain profession or be with a certain girl your whole life...HE will give that to you.
Luke 11:1-4
Once when Jesus had been out praying, one of the disciples came to him as he finished and said, "Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples."
He said, "This is how you should pray:
"Father, may your name be honored.
May your Kingdom come soon.
Give us our food day by day.
And forgive us our sins -
just as we forgive those who have sinned against us.
And don't let us yield to temptation."
This was the NLT version, so it may sound a little different.
