ll people to come to a saving knowledge of Him. I don't think God wants anyone to die and go to hell. I believe this because I have come to think of God as loving and merciful. Loving because I know I am saved from death. Loving because I have a roof over my head, and food to eat, and a wife who loves me, and a church family who cares about me, and this beautiful earth to enjoy, and a solid Christian education, and the list could go on forever. If God were not loving he would be a contradiction of himself, and that is not possible - that is if God exists - which I believe he does. Therefor, to me, God is loving. He is also merciful. Merciful because my sins have been forgiven, and they continue to be forgiven, even today. He is merciful because he allows me to live when I deserve death. He gives me a life serving him when I should be cast out from him. My God is loving and merciful. I have experienced it! I have seen it!
             The only other core belief that I will talk about is Jesus' death and resurrection. I believe Jesus came to this earth to live a perfect life as a testimony to the awesome power of God, and to become the perfect sacrifice for the sins of man. I believe Jesus was crucified on a cross. I believe he died. I believe that 3 days later he rose from the dead and accended to heaven. I believe he will come back for me. I also believe that the only way for a person to be forgiven of their sins and accepted into heaven, is for them to believe this and to ask forgiveness from Christ, and change their actions.
             Why do I believe these things? I believe God exists because historical evidence and findings point toward an ordered universe, not the evolutionary, happen stance world that darwinists believe in. I believe God exists because some things in life are too perfect to have been chance. For example: of all the planets, the earth's atmosphere is the only one that is ideal for sustaining human life.
