It is not a lie to say babies are created out of love. But there is no use in denying the existence of sex, eggs and sperms in order to cling to the simplistic explanation.

Do you really trust in him and his word, the Holy Bible and his plan and purpose for your life ?. If you have, then India would not be your main focus of life, but, serving and living for Jesus Christ and knowing his plan for your life as revealed in the word of God. You are young and yes, you would have passions and we can see the world through the internet today. But keep your trust and focus on Jesus Christ and the Bible. Satan job is to pull you away from these and to keep you blinded to untruths. Hope you find that purpose and you have to stand firm in your beliefs and not let any other influences pull you to their ways. God bless, and may Jesus be the focus of your life. GOD is not only the creator of the Israelite,the westerner,but also the creator of Indian and Chinese,etc. There are 70 billions peoples on this planet,and more than 25 billions are the Indian and Chinese Make some sense??? I think all the nations have their own role in the plan of GOD But the problem is: The gap between the different nation with different ethic/ culture just like the distance between earth and Mars Can y understand why the ancient Chinese worshipped the emperor,the parents,the teachers,just like we worship GOD,and even more than And another problem is: The Bible blames the idolatry/polytheism from cover to cover Shall we only keep the blind faith, agree with BIBLE without any reason Or shall we try to find out why idolatry/polytheism are evil And the monotheism conquered all the polytheism---the idolatry/polytheism of Ancient Egypt/middle east/ Greece,etc So why GOD allows Hinduism,the typical idolatry/polytheism is still exist? Does GOD has the purpose for it??? And today when y read the Greek myth,the only thing y see is the interesting and romantic story,so why GOD HATES so romantic a religion? Do y have ever wonder? ------when I saw the male genital is the most widly worshipped idol in Indian,and the young girls stroke it with white milk ,I totally agree with GOD,it is really nasty. ************************ ************************ And the most serious problem is In the Second Vatican Council The Vatican declared that all the religions,including the the typical idolatry/polytheism---- Hinduism Are all good ,are all pursuing the Creator,just in different ways,so Vatican did and does not condemn the paganism again,but praise and cfm them! According to Bible ,we know Vatican is wrong But it is Vatican. Vatican, Vatican Their influence is so huge ,and now the whole west is under a terrible political correctness,that is multiculturalism Can y really truly resist it? Do y dare to declare in public:the Hinduism,the Islam are all evil!!!!!!!!! Do y? Do y afraid to be consider as the racialism and The far right? But as a true believer of GOD ,and accept the whole Bible as the absolute truth Y do should have the courage to blame the Hinduism,the Islam,the Buddhism….. Without knowing and understanding,how can y blame?how can y argue??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's good. You made a lot of good points in your posts starting with how evolution causes the loss of morals which makes people bad. We're dealing with this in the Western world too. I guess the hope for the world is that the Holy Spirit is in the world and He's also in all of us who have accepted Jesus. Without the Holy Spirit the bad things of this world would take over people's mind's. But He is here and He must be in you too because you are very concerned about all the things you are. Someone already said maybe you are meant to be a preacher to Indian people or in India. I agree that maybe you are. Just be careful studying Hinduism that it doesn't take over your mind. I've seen people who grew up as Catholics and who knew of Jesus get taken over by spirits of other religions. But I guess they didn't have the Holy Spirit in them or if they did they didn't listen to Him. The Holy Spirit doesn't scream at a person, He speaks in a soft voice inside the person. It's then up to each of us to obey Him. I hope this makes sense to you. This is also why even though evolution is taught is schools when we grow up many of us seek God through Jesus. It happened that way for me too. I knew about Jesus as a child but then learned evolution in school. At 18 I tried to believe God isn't real. For 10 years I was very confused but by the time I was 26 something was calling me. I now know that was the Holy Spirit. Being a Christian is not easy. It's not an easy life but we do it because the promise of Christianity is eternal life in Heaven with God. All Hinduism or the other religions can offer is maybe another life on earth. By the time I was 45 I realized I wouldn't want another life on earth even if I could be rich, handsome, and have everything most people want. No, I'd rather have God and His Holy Spirit when I die go and be with God. That's better. I think you want that too. God Bless you. Thks I were born in the society mixed with atheism and Buddhism I learned the Marxism form primary school to College I got A in Marxism when I were graduated from the high school (I only had 2A: Marxism and history) And in china ,the schools teach the history in the way of Marxism ************ I were been called in 2003,and then I studied the history of Chinese church I amazingly found that one of my primary schools,one of my middle school,and my College are all be founded by the church And my College is the only Protestant university in shanghai,china(before 1949) I had calculated the probability,according to Probability It can not be naturally happen! ************ And from my childhood I watched the story about the Buddhism from the cartoons,tv shows,films,story books……….. ************ I do not only study Hinduism,I spend far more time in Judaism,and I also have studied the Egyptian religion and Zoroastrianism,of course,as a Protestant,the knowledge of Catholicism and Islam are the necessary equipment ************ Why I pay so serious atten to the religion Frist ,it is GOD called me and leading me And second,the social sciences,is really my hobby from my childhood (y see ,i only had 2A in schools,and are social sciences) ************ Frankly to say ,I do not think GOD called me to be the missionary to india, But I do think GOD has purpose in all of these Edited March 13, 2017 by silviawang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you don't believe that the OT is historical and that every word o scripture is God-breathed? 2Tim 3:15-17 "15 And from a child you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for instruction, for conviction, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17so that the man of God may be complete, fully equipped for every good work.…" I believe all scripture is God-breathed and useful for instruction, conviction, correction and for training in righteousness.
