What does my belief in the Bible and God mean to me?

The message in the Bible is that we should do what is right for everyone in the world. We should love our neighbor as we love ourselves. What does that really mean? It means that we should treat others as we want the to treat us. It also means that we should be truthful, and not lie. And by not lying we should not cheat others. We should not be sleeping around. I also believe that marriage is the joining of a man and a woman as it is written in the Bible.

Now let me say this there was a time in my life that I believed that being gay was a choice and not something with in our nature, but now I do believe that some of use are created different in sexual respects. I believe that some how our brains and genes are miss wired so that we have no choice.

But I still due to my training and my belief in the Bible believe that marriage is the joining of a man and women, and until I hear differently from a higher being much higher than any human, I will never change my mind on it.

I believe that the most important things in live is that we love our neighbor as we love ourselves, and that we do not lie, and we do not cheat anyone. But I guess I am troubled about my belief that we should never say things just to be politically correct, why because being politically correct to our politicians means lying to us. Being truthful sometimes meaning saying things that will hurt feels, but if it is truly the truth then it is not lying and there for import to being truthful.

Then there are the ones that say there cannot be a God because there is so much suffering in the world. To that all I can say is that what does not kill us makes us stronger. And when we have hard times we have a chance to learn from it and to become wiser and stronger in character. Also God gave us brains so we could think for ourselves, which means we make our on choices. But if we read the Bible and believe in the word then we will make the correct choices.

What is my beliefs in the Church. Church is two sided sword. We are told that we are much stronger in our beliefs when we are in groups of like believers, but then we have the issue of Church making its own rules that in lots of cases do not follow the Bible and the rules of God. And a lot of organized Churches pick and choice what books and verses of the Bible that they choice to follow and in lots of cases force upon the followers. I also believe that there are some very important books of the Bible that have been left out due to someone deciding that they believe that they books are unimportant due to it going against their beliefs.

 So what I will be doing is believing in a Higher power, much higher than any human. I also believe in the rules of life, do not lie, and love our neighbors. And most of all treat others as we want them to treat us.
