hi, I'm new here

[heavenlyarts]

Hello, I am known as Heavenlyarts, a Christian, only I am having doubts and problems with my Christian faith right now. That is why i came here. I feel lost because I can no longer believe what the Bible says. I believe the good parts but there is a lot of bad, negative, bigoted stuff in it that is morally wrong and unfair, however there is alot of good and wisdom in the Bible, we should keep the good part and ignore the bad part. I grew up Southern Baptist, my parents feel frustrated and have had enough with the Southern Baptists churches. I like art, am an artist I like dragon and fairy fantasy i write fantasy stories and I like nature. i have a pet cockatiel.

Welcome to RF!!!

Welcome!

I used to be a Christian too but found Falun Dafa(body and soul cultivation based on Truth-Compassion-Forbearance) and never turned back. I believe religion today is more about tradition, the setting and friends than real faith and real progress in one´s acts and thoughts.

PS: Try reading the book Zhuan Falun: Download Falun Dafa Falun Gong books and articles: books

Welcome, I'm pretty new to. Don't worry too much about doubting / questioning, I think it's pretty normal and there seems to be plenty of well-versed people here who can answer just about any question you have.

 

[heavenlyarts]

Well I am slowly finding answers to these deep questions. I love the Lord God and Jesus Christ and find the Bible fascinating. I am finding answers in it. The bible says, "Seek and you shall find, ask, knock and the door will be opened to you. You will find God when you seek Him with all your heart."

Welcome, heavenlyarts. I hope you find what you're looking for. You sound like a sincere person, so I suspect you will.

New here as well. This is going to sound dumb. But I can't seem to find where you can write in your signature. Also I can't seem to get any avatar uploads to work.

New here as well. This is going to sound dumb. But I can't seem to find where you can write in your signature. Also I can't seem to get any avatar uploads to work.

For your signature, go to your user CP and look down the left hand sidebar for the signature function. Hit that button and then follow directions.

For avatar uploads, remember there is a size restriction on avatars. You've got to be under a certain size. Go to your user CP, look down the left hand sidebar for the avatar function.

Sorry I am a little late welcoming you. I have had a lot of irons in the fire at home. That said, Welcome to RF! I hope you enjoy your stay.
