Questions for Christians (3)

Thank you for your response! I have to say it's the fist time I have heard of your church. To the questions: 9) You said everyone will have a time to repent their sins and learn the gospel, but... a) Homosexuality is a sin according to the bible. If a homosexual dies, does he have to REPENT his homosexuality in order to go to heaven? b) Who DOES go to hell? c) How do you know about that? It's not written in the bible or the new testament. How can you be sure it's true? 10) a) Why does God test our faith? For what reason? b) 'Jesus answered him, "It is said, "Do not put the Lord your God to the test." " (Luke, 4, 12). Why can God test us, but we can't test God? c) People die in those natural disasters. Is it a test for them too? People suffer... God ruins their lives.. how can you say that your God loves everyone when he does those things for no good reason? 11) Do you know your position about heaven contradicts the new testament? 'If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, shake off the dust from your feet as you leave that house or town. Truly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgement than for that town.' (Matthew, 10, 14) The day of judgement is the day God decides if they go to heaven or hell. What is said here, is that if the people of the town won't accept what Jesus's men say, they will go to hell. 12) About prayer: you said: 'praying to God is sort of like asking a teacher for help'. When you ask the teacher for help and she doesn't help you, that's pretty cruel, isn't it? I guess your life is quite fine, but let's take an example of two people with daughters who have cancer. They both pray to God, asking for help. One daughter makes it alive, and the other dies. (These things happen, of course). Why did God help one man and ignored the other? And if you don't believe in God, isn't he supposed to help you even if you don't pray? 13) You said you feel blessed that you are in an area 'where the truth was easy to find'. That's actually saying that people who live in Syria, for example, are not blessed (and in so many ways!). Do you think it's fair that God made you be born in America, and on the other hand made someone else be born in a Muslim village in Syria, in a poor poor family who lives in a tent? 14) Your reason of belief in God is embarrassing. A universe can exist with no godly intervention (the big bang theory). Can I ask you what is your life's purpose and meaning? Did God talk to you? 15) If god told you to kill your son/daughter/mother, would you do it? 16) If god told you to kill me, would you do it? 17) "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law" a man"s enemies will be the members of his own household. ' (Matthew 10, 34-39). Jesus is supposed to speak the words of God. Is this a kind, loving god? 18) You said ' If there wasn't a God there would be nothing at all, there would be no purpose to anything and we would not even be here' - which I supposed means: If God didn't create the universe, who did? Let me ask you that - who created God? If God created such a complex world, and has mind reading abilities, and future knowing abilities, he must be insanely complicated. How can you believe such a thing, who is more complicated than the universe itself, just exists? 19) Have you studied the big bang theory? Evolution? Islam? Judaism? Buddhism? Hinduism? Catholic Christianity? To those whom you answered yes, why didn't they convince you? To those whom you answered no, how can you be sure they are wrong? 20) Could you tell me about your church? Good Luck! :)
