when I was young I grew up in church and had very strong faith however I always had fear that I wasn’t saved.
When I was about 15 I got doubts and I stopped going to church as my faith in God deteriorated.
I am now 20 years old and have been back to my old church 4 times in the last month. But I do not feel anything anymore and I can’t take what the pastors and songs seriously anymore. I think I do believe God is there as I am slightly fearful I am not right with Him but I just don’t feel any connection with Christianity anymore and can’t get it back. When in church I just look around at everyone signing and crying and just think it is crazy and a bit weird instead of thinking it is beautiful and stuff like believers would think.
When I listen to testimonies I may think that they are really interesting but then they say things like “if you want to know Jesus raise your hand” and stuff like that. How can anyone be saved after just hearing a message when they know nothing about Jesus or anything in the bible. How can people be saved when they don’t even know what they are actually doing.
In the same way someone could say another person did great things in the past, “who wants this person in their lives now?”.
I just don’t get it at all anymore. I feel really awkward in church now as I am not saved and I can’t really take anymore me seriously. There are some really nice and funny people in the church and I wish I could be more like them as I have many problems right now in my life and am not happy at all.
I have no faith and belief anymore. I wish I could but I just can’t.
I don't think the fairy tales of religions have any place in the 21st century. Too bad, they're still very strong and are deceiving people as strongly as ever. I'm glad to hear your eyes got opened to the truth that all of it is just a bunch of nonsense... The truth is so much different and greater than all human religions together million times over. Humanity must grow out of religion
There are many who disagree with you!
