Your Conscience is God-Given
Do you think we have something inside us that tells us what's right and wrong? I used to think so, but I work in our local police department and I've seen people do so many evil things that I'm beginning to wonder.

Our son just left to go back to college, and although I hate to admit it, it was a relief to see him go. He came home this summer with all sorts of strange ideas, and said he no longer believes in God. All we did was argue, but that didn't get us anywhere. Any advice?
I'm 10 years old and I'd like to know how the world is going to end, according to the Bible. Will it be sudden, through atom bombs and things like that? Or will it happen slowly, through something like pollution?
Does the Bible tell us what the devil looks like? We see cartoon images of the devil, with a red suit, forked tail and all that, but would we recognize him if he appeared? I've always been curious about this.
Maybe I'm just from a different generation, but why on earth would any young person turn to drugs? Don't they know they're endangering their lives and may even destroy them? It doesn't make sense.
Will all my problems go away if I turn to God? I've had a couple of people say this to me, but I have a hard time believing it. I'm not sure it even works for them, if they're honest about it.
I have a lot of questions about God, but my aunt tells me not to think about them and just have faith. But how can I have faith in something, when I don't even know if it exists?
I've become very disillusioned recently because it seems like almost everyone I've looked up to has turned out to be two-faced or corrupt—celebrities, sports figures, politicians, you name it. Can anyone be trusted today?
Since one of the men who was crucified with Jesus turned to Him at the last minute and was saved, why I can't I do the same? I'm having too much fun to be a Christian now, but why can't I turn to Jesus when I'm about to die and still go to heaven?
Why are there so many religions in the world? I'd like to find out about God, but I don't know where to start looking. Do all religions lead to God?
I think you can prove almost anything from the Bible, if you just try. All you have to do is find a verse that says what you want it to say, and then use it to defend your own crazy ideas. I don't think the Bible is of any use.
This summer, someone in my class (I'll be in sixth grade this fall) died of leukemia. Why did God let this happen? I miss her very much. I just don't understand. Was God punishing her for something she did wrong?
