Question:<\/span> <\/p>\n A girl\u00a0from my\u00a0high school\u00a0left a note with the message: \u201cI do not\u00a0believe in God anymore\u201d and then committed suicide.<\/em><\/span> She was\u00a0only 18 years old.<\/span><\/em>\u00a0What do you think about this?<\/em><\/span>\u00a0I think she lost the last hope, and realized that life is pointless without God and decided to take her life.<\/em><\/span> It is true that life is a continuous struggle, that\u00a0people are increasingly bad and indifferent, that loneliness is difficult, but this does not mean that life is not worth living because it is beautiful both with\u00a0good and bad things that it has.<\/em><\/span> I always admire people with strong faith in God because they are optimistic, healthier, they radiate happiness and are more peaceful.<\/em><\/span>\u00a0I do not know what makes them so?<\/span><\/em> I wish\u00a0to be so, but unfortunately I do not think I have a chance.<\/em><\/span> I watched documentaries (ex. \u201cZeitgeist\u201d, or \u201cSecret of life on earth\u201d), and I no longer believe in God.<\/em><\/span> If you know a documentary that provides evidence for the existence of God, please let me know.<\/em><\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Yes, I also think that\u00a0disbelief and disappointment\u00a0have brought this girl to total despair and suicide.<\/span> When people lose faith in God life no\u00a0longer makes sense for them because God has put eternity in the human heart and created man for His glory.<\/span> Without this purpose man\u00a0can not find a direction worthy\u00a0of life, no matter how much he\u00a0insists.<\/span> The Bible tells\u00a0about people who have ruined their relationship with God and this has led them to commit suicide.<\/span> <\/p>\n Why true Christians are always full of life?<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n Because we have faith in God and by faith\u00a0we received from Him peace, joy in tribulation, hope and divine love that was poured into our hearts.<\/span> <\/p>\n Therefore, having been justified by faith<\/strong>, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,\u00a0through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith<\/strong> into this grace<\/strong> in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God<\/strong>.\u00a0And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations<\/strong>, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance;\u00a0and perseverance, proven character;<\/strong> and proven character, hope;\u00a0and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.<\/strong> (Romans 5:1-5)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n How to grow your faith in God?<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n The Bible tells of a rich man who lived a\u00a0life of waste, sin, indifference to others and unbelief.<\/span> When he got\u00a0to\u00a0Hades and saw that it was a reality, the rich man said<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cThen I beg you, father, that you send him to my father\u2019s house\u2013\u00a0for I have five brothers\u2013in order that he may warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.\u2019\u00a0But Abraham said, \u2018They have Moses and the Prophets; let them hear them.\u2019\u00a0But he said, \u2018No, father Abraham, but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent!\u2019\u00a0But he said to him, \u2018If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.<\/strong>\u2018\u201d (Luke 16:27-31)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n \u201cMoses and the prophets\u201d was a way to call the Holy Scriptures of the Old Testament.<\/span> So Abraham said a great truth, namely that if someone does not believe what is written in God\u2019s Word, he will try to find\u00a0any wrong interpretation\u00a0as to not believe even when\u00a0someone raises from the dead.<\/span> Therefore, do not look for any\u00a0documentary, but take\u00a0the Bible and start studying it.<\/span> Start from the New Testament and after having read it in its entirety read the Old Testament too.<\/span>\u00a0Before you read, pray and ask God to give you a better understanding of His word through the Holy Spirit.<\/span> In the Gospel of John it says:<\/span> <\/p>\n Therefore many other signs Jesus also performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book;\u00a0but these have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in His name.<\/strong> (John 20:30-31)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Study the Bible to believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and believing to have eternal life in His name.<\/span> <\/p>\n I recommend you get\u00a0the Bible study materials according to the inductive method\u00a0because they\u00a0will help enormously to understand the message of the Holy Scripture.<\/span> Start studying\u00a0\u201dGod, are you there?\u201d course, which is a profound study of the Gospel of John.<\/span> <\/p>\n Find a living church where the priest or the pastor preaches healthy\u00a0doctrine from the Holy Scriptures and lives according to the teaching he\u00a0is giving others.<\/span> <\/p>\n Search\u00a0a Bible study group and get involved.<\/span> There you will find not only answers to\u00a0the questions you have, but also fellowship with true Christians, who want to fulfill God\u2019s will in their lives.<\/span> <\/p>\n Translated by Felicia Rotaru<\/em><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Question: A girl\u00a0from my\u00a0high school\u00a0left a note with the message: \u201cI do not\u00a0believe in God anymore\u201d and then committed suicide.
