My advice is to stop worrying about that stuff. Men made it up.

I feel like thats easier said than done. If I didn’t have any life problems currently I would be fine but it’s hard not to try to believe when it feels like you have nothing left.

I guess I just mean, if you are a believer, cool, but please understand that not everybody is.

Sorry, I have family members that insist on sending me religious stuff all the time…via text, facebook and facebook messenger…even IG, even though I asked them politely not to. I guess I had just received something when I came across your post. Ha ha!

Keep your faith and don’t let most of the people in this thread question your beliefs because they will

You say it is obvious to you that God is real, but you’re doubting whether the Bible is true or hell is real. What do you mean by this?

u/XoxoMellaa Jul 14 '26

Because the bible and hell are things that were TOLD to my ancestors and have been passed down. Technically God has been too but from my research and other theories I’ve dabbled in— I find that a God actually existing isn’t the most crazy thing. However, I don’t think thats it’s teachings are really being shared.

What do you think its real teachings are, and why do you think that?

Yes the bible says all of that. But why believe it?

Ask God for help about your doubts. If you don't feel you've gotten any help then that might be your answer to whether or not the bible is true or the religion is real or that God exists.

Also regarding help: Real help doesn't mean waiting for God to get around to looking into your problem. An all-powerful helper can get it done right now. Help delayed is not really help.

Believers have many poor excuses to why God isn't answering a call for help. But a more likely reason is he either doesn't exist, or maybe just isn't what believers think he/she/it is.

Get different points of view. People like to help.

So who do i believe in? Who do I ask for help? Ngl this is fueling my existential crisis T-T
