I'd like for someone that was interested very much in Jiddu Krishnamurti's teachings to tell me how they came out of them or if they had any revelation from Jesus in respect to him. Please don't just say, "the Bible says" this or that. I'd like personal a experience. I'm caught between both...

Please pray for the healing of my mental illness so that I can lead a normal life. Bless you.

Matthew 5:4 - Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. I suffer plenty. I have a chronic mental illness and despite my efforts in trying to do the best I can with my life I seem to always crumble to suffering. Where is the comfort that I want so much? I have to close the...

Is anyone familiar christian meditation? I've been ruminating on this for some days. Is this okay to practice? Why yes or why not? Thanks.

I have schizoaffective disorder. I don't hallucinate, although I feel crippling anxiety and fearful thoughts and feelings that stop me from leading a normal life. I've been meditating, counting my in breaths and out breaths from one to ten for some days now, and I feel less anxiety and fear. I...

If saints are dead how can they pray for us?

If you were to prove me the catholic church is the one true church, how would you do that to me?

Is anyone in heaven right now? Because people pray to saints, there must be people in heaven. How do you support this with bible scripture, also, or the catechism.

I went to Mass and took with me a little book that has the responses to the priest's sayings. I read from the book. Had communion. Finally at the end of the Mass I had a feeling of completion, that I had belonged to something. It wasn't a mystical experience. It was different from the other...

Is there anyone here that is a non-catholic christian with a special devotion, or love for Mary? If so, why?

What are the earlier references in history to Mary as a person with some importance? If you could quote catholic and non catholic references that would be great, emphasis on non catholic.

In the catholic faith, for example, there are people in heaven, like the Virgin Mary and the blessed saints, but doesn't this deny the Judgement Day, when people would then be punished or recompensed. Shouldn't people be judged only then?

John 31 So He said to the Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, you are truly My disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” What does mean? Does this mean that if we obey the commandments and the words in the sermon of the mount, someday, we...

I don't have the courage to commit suicide and I'm unable to live a normal life (work->home|home->work). I'm too frightened to face the world. I don't know what else to do. I'm losing faith in God. It's been three years since my reconversion to Jesus (or so I think I'm converted) and I don't see...

Personally I have in great regard for a long time a person in the public eye. I am amazed by what that person says, the truth I see in the things he says in his line of work. I have such admiration that I think I consider him an idol. Then appeared in the public eye another person who caught my...

What does the bible say about the simple. For example, when he is surrounded by people who know more about stuff, like politics, the events that happen in the world, general knowledge and he doesn't know nothing to intervene? And he has tried to acquire knowledge but he just can't accumulate it...

I'm quite ignorant on the matter, but are there any theosis practices that a person can do? Where can I find that information?

This isn't necessarily a type of request for advice, it's more like a statement. I don't know if it should be posted elsewhere. Please do move it if necessary. I proceeded to buy the said book from another post I wrote in the advice section, and on the second or third day of reading it, I was...

I would like to ask for someone to advise me on wether or not should I read Rupert Sheldrake's Science and Spiritual Practices. If yes why, if no, why not. Thanks in advance.
