I am a Christian and I believe in God... I love God. It's just that more and more I feel I'm drifting away from my Lord. Sometimes I'll pray and promise God I will pray more and talk to him more, but I either forget to and rarely but sometimes I will say in my head, "I need to pray," but then I don't(purposely).
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get closer to God, or ways to strengthen my relationship with the Lord? I don't want to be this way... but when it comes to praying...I just don't. Any ideas? Express your feelings! Thank you so much! (link)

Well, praying is a BIIIIIIIIIIIIIG part of talking to and walking with God but also, read your Bible... it helps us become closer to Him.
(need more details, just ask me from my column)

First off, God always hears your prayers and yes He may take awhile to answer and it may not be the answer you want, but He always answer.
and, it depends on what you mean.
if my "better" you mean Holier, then know that no one is perfect except God and everyone makes mistakes.... but that's why God sent His son Jesus to die for our sins so we will be forgiven and we don't have to be perfect.
if by "better" you mean knowing more about God, then the best ways to be "better" are:
1) Pray.
2) Read the Bible
3) Go to church (be amongst other believers)

What do the numbers after a person's name mean in the bible?
ex- Mark 16:16 (link)
|
Mark is one of the books of the Bible.
the first 16 means the chapter (you'll see a big-ish 16 in the middle of text........... after 15 of course) and teh second 16 means the verse... that will be the smaller 16 in the middle of text.
So in the 16th chapter of Mark, verse 16 will be what you are looking for.

I am racially Jewish.
As far as my faith goes? I'm not quite sure. I was raised thinking Jesus is the true Messiah, not not worshiping him, per say. My father's side of the family has a lot of Jewish traditions woven in with Catholic ones.
I think Christians worship Jesus INSTEAD of God, and I don't think that's right.
I DO NOT want to be a Jew for Jesus. I'm sorry, I'm not praying in a highschool gym. Its not going to happen. I've prayed in both churches and synagogues, because I just say, "Hey, its the same God, right?"
But the way of worshiping Him is quite different. I have no idea who I am, where I fit, or where I should go to pray. (link)

Jesus is God because Jesus is God's only Begotten Son.
God sent Jesus to come down on earth to be born, to live, and to die for our sins. Then he rose again.
It doesn't matter between God and Jesus as long as you believe that Jesus died on teh cross for our sins, no one can repay Him, and the only way to get to Heaven is through Him.
Let's pray.
"God, I believe in You and I believe You sent your Son Jesus down to die for my sins. God, I know I am a sinner and I'm in need of a Saviour. Please, Jesus come into my heart and help me walk in this world with You. Amen."
That's it.
Believin' in Him together forever,

We don't need religion. Hear me out. If Jesus were to come down from Hevan and say "I am the son of God" and showed us all of is water to wine stuff, scientist could test it and then Christianity would become a science and all other religions would be be proven wrong and therefore not be religions.
That was my little prologue, here is my question Is it possible that our societies have reached a point in which we can admit there is no need for religion and have good morals without a book or God(s) to tell us what they are? (link)

You are absolutely right.
You don't need a religion, you don't need to go to church, you don't need to try to be a saint.
Want to know why?
NONE OS THAT WORKS!
What people need is a relationship with Jesus because that is the only way to get to Heaven.
