Hello, this is my first time posting here.I am a very fervent Christian, and I believe in God, and His son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ, with all my heart.I attend a Catholic School (I was not forced by my parents, rather I decided to go and I help pay for it). I thought maybe I may be able to socialize with other peace-loving Christians and God-believers, but all around are devout atheists. Everyday, they all try to convince me there is no God, but I refuse to believe them. I lash back at them with even more proof that God does indeed exist, but they refuse to listen. I don't try to convert everyday, rather, they try to convert me. They are like, atheistic fundamentalist, if such a thing existed.I will never lose faith in God, but for some reason, I feel my faith deterriorating more and more everyday. All of those atheists and secularists at school think they are right, and the scoff at my beliefs. All of this negative attitude is began to destroy my faith.Does anyone know of any way to increase my faith?Thanks in advance :bible:
Hi, Are you a born again christian, if you aren't, and want to know how to become one,I can heip you. If you are that is wonderful. God give to everyone the measure of faith, Romans 12: 3, It doesn't say, "A measure" but, "The measure", if He said "A measure" that means One might person have more then onther, But God has given to every one the same amount of faith, The Bible tells us how to increase our faith.[1] Faith comes by heaing God's word. Romans 10: 17,[2] Faith works [Made strong] by love. Galations 5: 6,[3] Increased by confessing. Luke 17: 5:--6,[4] Activated by actions. James 2: 22-26. Here is a clearer meaning of v 22, "By works was his faith activated, or operated" you could be in a wheel chair and believe God has healed you, but until you put actions to your faith, you wont get out of that wheel chair.The word confession in Luke 17: 5--6, is this, When you speak the word out, it goes into your inner ear and create's faith to the Spirit man inside you. That is why Rom 10: 8, says, "The word in in your mouth,then in your heart"you speak it and it creates faith in you heart.Then in v 10: it says, "With the heart you believe, and the mouth speaks".for example, if you are sick, keep confessing,"By His stripes I am healed, by His stripes I was healed, Jesus has taken all my sickness". That will create the realisation in your spirit and get faith into your heart.
