  • My way of approaching to God

    Below is a reply to this topic, but I thought I want to discuss it in a separate topic. Here it is:

    My English isn't good enough to take that quiz, but I can tell you this:
    I do believe in one God. I believe Jesus was a son of God, with the holly powers that God gave him himself, but I can't think of him as an actual God.

    That's actually the exact way Muslims approach to it, but I have nothing to do with Islam.

    I am Christian, I go to Church, but I found my way to God.

    What do you think of me being Armenian and saying that.
    Is it good or is it bad? =/

    First of all no one can judge you but God himself. It's great that you believe in Jesus & that you go to church, but I think the reason fror people going to church is to hear the word of God. ( I have seen some people & know people that go to church for years & years & gain no true knowledge of the Bible). But If I may can I ask you a question? you said [I do believe in one God. I believe Jesus was a son of God, with the holly powers that God gave him himself,] so what do you mean when you say you cant think of him as an actual God. In the Christian faith theres one God.

      I am confused with the bible, just like those people you talked about. Bible talks about the holly trinity and as if every one of them was a part of God. How is it? In my understanding God is one. You see, if we say Jesus was a God then there is one more he talked to. That makes two already. and then there is a third (holly trinity). I just can't accommodate everything together.

        That's why the Orthodox Church is the best - they don't try to pigeonhole God into one answer. It's seen as Profound Mystery (as in the sharagan "Khoroort Khorin").

        P.S. by the way it's "holy" not "holly"

          Religion is really useless.

          You can believe in God without religion. Or alternatively, you can choose to not believe in God.

            There is no such thing as a non-Christian Armenian.

              Furthermore you have to be Armenian Orthodox or Armenian Protestant, with the Protestants being considered second-class Armenians. If you are NEITHER of these then you are not Armenian.

              More rules to come...

                Armenia was the first nation to claim that they were Christian, but these days its alot diffrent, just because you wear a cross around your neck does not imply that your a Christian.

                  That is patently false and may I add, absurd.

                  More breaking of rules to come...

                    So if I believe in God today but change my mind and become an athiest tomorrow, I am no longer an Armenian? Just like that?
