if a person is not christian (i.e. atheist, hindu, etc.) will they go to hell even if he/she was a good person on earth?
Mark16:16
He who believes and is baptized will be saved. But he who does not believe will be damned
if god created such a complex world, and in the bible he can talk to ppl, then why didnt he explain science to evryone from the beggining? why did we have to find so much out for ourselves?
Would god want us to have the knowledge of himself?
why does the bible mention nothing about dinosaurs or oher prehistoric life?
Does it need to? Doesnt talk much about other animals as well.
In the christian belief you are not allowed to have an abortion right? Also if you are sincerely rependant and you ask god for forgiveness he will forgive you no matter the circumstances right?
... So if you are sincerely rependant about the fact that you got pregnant - and here goes my question - why can't god forgive you that? it is contradictory as i read it.
God can forgive you, what makes you think he can't?
You think that God is a higher power. Elaborate pleasse.
Yes, God is the highest being in existent. he was existent from the very beginning and he will always exist.
Why did God create the Earth and Heavans before light? surely it would make more sense to turn on the light bulb before you do something like make everything.
First of all, God can do what he wants to do for any reason he wants, cause he is God. Here is the verse in the bible:
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was without shape and empty, and darkness was over the surface of the watery deep, but the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the water. God said, âLet there be light.â And there was light! God saw that the light was good, so God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light âdayâ and the darknessânight.â There was evening, and there was morning, marking the first day.
God does not need light to see. this may sound strange to us humans, but God can do anything he wants, nothing is out of his grasp.
if a person is not christian (i.e. atheist, hindu, etc.) will they go to hell even if he/she was a good person on earth?
Yes.
if god created such a complex world, and in the bible he can talk to ppl, then why didnt he explain science to everyone from the beggining? why did we have to find so much out for ourselves?
Because, if we knew everything from the beginning, we would be perfect and wonderful. only god knows all.
why does the bible mention nothing about dinosaurs or oher prehistoric life?
Why does the bible not mention anything about pigs? I mean, pigs exist, and probably did back then also. Same reason. You can't talk about everything. But there are mentions of creatures that sound similar to dinosaurs. (read the book of JOB)
did god create time or was that already there?
God created everything. Time, space, matter, the whole deal.
Thanks for all the questions! you really are stretching my mind and helping me understand it even more then I did before! I hope these answers are helpful, and if you want to know even more, come talk to my on my profile.

... okey so if you are sincerely rependant you are allowed to get an abortion - not many christians will agree with you on that one...
why would GOD create human... if he understanded that the EaRth was going to die? IF GOD was perfect... then why is our world going to be dead with humanity in a time close to scare us? i dont think that religion is wrong at all... but can a person let me know with out saying faith or religion that there is the answere?... this planet is going to die in the next 400+or- years or less... speaking on life of humanity... and *whelp* uhhh... where do we go? science is BEAUTIFUL but is it enough? i dont think so... we now know our fait, and it is toooo late... but what we can do is understand our wrong choices and try to make a new world on a different "World"... Mars.. no.. sad but we are a dead world soon...

please... N E ONE... let me know on my profile the answere... I AM NOT TRYING TO start a fight... Just asking
srsly tho heres a question, is there a way to get into hell? because god is all knowing and forgiving to all, if you ask for forgiveness he shall grant it.
so techically if one apologizes and asks for forgivenesss one should get into heaven right?
... okey so if you are sincerely rependant you are allowed to get an abortion - not many christians will agree with you on that one...
I don't follow you. If you get an abortion, then you repent for doing it, God will forgive you. but that does not mean you can just go continue doing it. you need to stop sinning and repent.
What was before God?
Nothing. God was the only thing existent before God. God. He was there from the beginning and nothing else was. Good question though, I think that if more people got that fact, things would be easier to understand.
why would GOD create human... if he understanded that the EaRth was going to die?
What do you mean the earth was going to die? Nothing can happen apart from God.
IF GOD was perfect... then why is our world going to be dead with humanity in a time close to scare us?
What are you referring too? The end of the world in the bible, or are you some environmentalist?
i dont think that religion is wrong at all... but can a person let me know with out saying faith or religion that there is the answere?
Yes. There is. There, I did it. :P
this planet is going to die in the next 400+or- years or less... speaking on life of humanity... and *whelp* uhhh... where do we go? science is BEAUTIFUL but is it enough? i dont think so... we now know our fait, and it is toooo late... but what we can do is understand our wrong choices and try to make a new world on a different "World"... Mars.. no.. sad but we are a dead world soon...
I have the feeling you have a lot of turmoil going on inside of you.. are you scared of the end of the world? And I would also like to know where you get the fact that the world is going to end in 400+ years... Where did you get that info? and the answer to the fact where you are going to go is this: If you believe that God created the world, and that everything in the world was created by God, and that Jesus Died on the cross for every ones sin, and that you want God to lead you through the rest of your life, then you will go to heaven. If you don't, and you go through life empty and depleted of all self esteem, and feeling like there is no point to life and living in sin and evil, then you will go to hell, and Earth will look very nice compared to hell.
Does God approve people speaking in his name?
Do you mean false people speaking in his name, people using his name in daily conversation, other wise known as CUSSING, or God enter a person and using him to communicate a message. If it is the last one yes, God approves of it because God is doing it! God is the only one who can let you speak in his name and it be ok. God will enter you and you will be over come with the spirit and will speak a message from God. This of course is very uncommon of resent times, but it happened a lot in the old testament and other times. Now a days it is very hard to see the truth or the false, because there are so many false teachers and unbelievers pretending to be speaking for God. Just trust God and let him lead you.
whats 1 + 2?
3... :P
seriously thoough heres a question, is there a way to get into hell? because god is all knowing and forgiving to all, if you ask for forgiveness he shall grant it.
so techically if one apologizes and asks for forgivenesss one should get into heaven right?
i am catholic so i do beleive in that :P
There is no way to 'get into hell' you are default already going to hell, no chose other wise. the only other choice is heaven, and eternal life with God in paradise. Trust me, you don't want to go to Hell, it is NOT fun. But Yes, if you ask for for forgiveness of your sins, and to ask him to lead you the rest of your life, you will go to heaven.
