Questions for theists (and ex-theists, too)
#10
RE: Questions for theists (and ex-theists, too)
1) Are you of the same religion as your parents or that you were born into?
I am the same religion of one of my parents, but they never had me go to religious services until I was the one who wanted to go.


b) If so, have you questioned your religion, tried other ones?

Looked into Islam before becoming a Christian, but it was not for me.


c) If so, what made you come back to your original faith and what was interesting about the religions you tried?

A. I started to drink alcohol and B. encountered the Holy Spirt.

2) Do you follow the bible/Quran/Torah?

I follow the Bible and take most of it (after the start of the Kingdom) as literal and the rest as a version of what happened. The Holy Spirit is the basis for my faith and the Bible is just a foundation to build upon that basis.


3) Do you follow your religious organisation's doctrine? (please state what your church is, if any)
I don't adhere to my organization's doctrine since I go there for the community and not because of what Church it is.


4) Are there any pastors/rabbis/imams/priests/theologians/etc that you follow?
A few pastors.

5) What is your train of thought in deciding what to believe?
Argue with it enough times that the Holy Spirit finally sets me straight.

6) What would it take to make you lose your faith (hypothetically)?
Nothing.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
