Hello, I've been a Christian for nearly a decade, but I haven't been able to settle on a denomination. I think the two denominations that come the closest to the teachings of the Apostles are Lutheranism and Calvinism, but there are a few issues that I have yet to be able to settle. One is...

I think I'm overall getting better, but I still have a ton of blasphemous and evil thoughts. It's gotten to the point where I've unintentionally done things like writing for an assignment "(answer, answer, answer) I'm scared" or be texting and like "(reply, reply, reply) I'm so scared". It...

If you are religious at all I would really appreciate your opinion on this, as I have gotten into a disagreement over this and I want to see what other people think. Imagine that someone has come to God, accepted that Jesus died for their sins and has been saved. Is it then possible for them to...
