Hi,
I am a 20 year old British female, I was born into a christian family and visited church every Sunday growing up. As I prepared to go to university I had told myself that when I moved to study I would either lose my faith or it would grow and I would just see what happens. Thank fully, I believe God sent some wonderful people into my life at that time and I began, for the first time truly understanding God's work and was able to have frank, honest and insightful conversations with people my age for the first time in my life.
Now approaching my 3rd year of university, my faith is stronger than ever but I am constantly confused by things I should believe to uphold a true christian lifestyle.
I would love some discussion, to help me, understand thoughts on homosexuality and sex before marriage. And I would love for some answers not to just be 'the Bible is timeless' etc. I totally 100% agree that the bible is timeless and we should live by God's word but, I personally need to get my head around some of the issues I've just mentioned.
Thank you, anyone and everyone for your help,
I've never really spoken about these issues with anyone before so slightly nervous for your answers/feedback!
Thanks!
 
hi elise
I don't know if i have the kinds of answers you're looking for, but feel free to message me if you want to discuss any of it.

And welcome to CC.

I think you should start by looking up previous threads on these issues as these are common topics here... Then maybe ask more specific questions based from those threads and we can discuss further. :)
 
I'm sorry Elsie, I didn't get to finish what I was saying. The Holy Spirit is blessing me because I have surrendered my life to him, it is total consecration and he is blessing me almost everyday. I have started a bible study at a nursing home and he is constantly telling me what to say. He puts what he wants me to know in my mind and I write it down and share it with the resident at the nursing home. I can help you, simply by sharing with you how I learned how to do this. And believe me it works.
