God bless you. The doctrine proposes that faith in Christ is sufficient for sinners to be accepted by God, to count them among his people, and to equip them with the motive of trust, gratitude and love toward God from which good works are to be done. Trust in Jesus Christ and you will be saved.

Jesus Christ died and took all the sins of the world at that instance. Don't worry, be happy.

I've never been able to wrap my head around concepts like sin (especially original sin), commandments, Jesus' resurrection, and so on. I can't accept the supernatural as truth without evidence, and if there's evidence then it's not really supernatural, and if it's not supernatural then it's really not God, is it?

It just doesn't add up. I can't force myself to believe something that doesn't make sense to me, and it's not like I can fool God into thinking I really do believe in him.

I don't understand why you think there is no evidence when clearly you just need to look for evidence in your daily lives. Also I don't understand why you believe God needs to be supernatural. God is the creator and substance of all that exists. So look at a tree and see God. Look at a cat and see God. God is greater than his creation. But you get my point. Evolution is created by God. God uses evolution as a tool for creation. The earth is not 6000 years old but however many billions. The phrases, "1000 years a day and a day like 1000 years" is to mean that time is meaningless in heaven.

Hitler could have gotten into heaven if he really had faith in Christ. Only Jesus knows how that ended.

Hitler killed Jews, Jesus was killed by Jews, Christians hate Jews as a result. Thus Jesus approves of killing Jews to avenge his death. So Hitler did get in to heaven. :hmm:

OP, if two men marry each other and have true faith in Jesus Christ, will they be saved?

'Justification by Faith Alone' is a way that many US protestants believe that they'll get into heaven because of their faith in Christ. They'd probably say that Hitler didn't have 'true' faith Christ.

It's pretty dumb, but so is a lot of religion.

If God shot a gun, would it be possible for him to miss his target?

WTF do you think a quasar is? God goes around galaxies and puts out his arms and fires a pair of nickle plated revolvers filled with space stuff bullets:

It all happens inside a black hole, so we can't get a quality pic. Also, he can't really aim, because he's on the other side of the event horizon.

Yes to the gay men getting into heaven. Yes to Hitler if he truly have faith in Jesus. Sola fide.
