Let’s saY that there lives a person a few blocks down hte road from you- not many people know him because only a few have gone there to meet him- but htose htat have come out and tell others that IF they go and meet that person, they shall be spared eternal punishement once they find out for themsleves that a person actually does live there- It woudl be silly to just say “Well, I don’t think there is anyoen there, so I’ll just go to my grave satisfied that there’s no person there and that perhaps thsoe peopel were wrong abotu htere beign a person there- and that they were wrogn abotu htere beign eternal punishement i nthe afterlife-” when all you had to do was go there and find out personally for yourself to spare yourself eternal punishment-

[[Whatever the case, we will find out when we die.]]

Why wait when hte free invitation is available before findign out hte hard way?

Advice: type slower then proof read.

To answer your question - Beliefs and faith are different from factual answers to the questions that were posed.

There is nothing wrong with beliefs and faith. We all have them in one form or another.

But no one in this world can answer those questions with facts.

They may think they have the answers, they may believe that their answers are more right than other answers, they may believe that their answers are the only right answers, but those are beliefs, they are not the factual answers.

Personally, I believe that Jesus Christ created me and everything else. But I cannot say for 100.00% certainty that this is exactly what happened, because I do not know.
