Aw yeah. Have you ever read "This Present Darkness"? no but I'm going to now lol. What's it about (vaguely)? It's about the unseen battle between angels and demons, juxtaposed with the struggle of Christians. It's really cool and unique, and I haven't seen it duplicated. It's mostly biblical, but there are a few liberties taken in it, since the Bible doesn't tell us everything about angels and demons. I'd definitely recommend it.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but while I don't particularly identify as any denomination, neither do I identify as non-denominational. I feel like it has become a sect in and of itself. My beliefs most closely correspond with Lutheran teachings, but I don't call myself a Lutheran, either. I simply call myself a Christian. Anyone get what I'm saying? I get what you're saying, and it's alright to not have a denomination. I for a while didn't have one, but now I'm Lutheran. ^-^

A close friend to our family has a blood infection and has to get a heart surgery soon, so if you all could please keep him in your prayers, I would absolutely love that! Sure Soot! Will do, and I hope he recovers well.

I'm not a huge Christian, but I do believe and worship God, however I don't read the bible very often, nor read other books. I do want to get more into Christian beliefs though. You cannot be a huge or a small Christian: there is no scale or order. We are all equally justified by our faith in Christ's sacrifice. Thank you for that, it honestly does help me have more faith.

Make sure to pray as well. A good way to start getting closer to God is to find a good church community. Reading the Bible and learning about it is almost like school, the subject only seems tough if you have the wrong kind of teacher.

Can anyone tell me about confirmation?
My cousin went through it years ago now, and I was wondering - which denominations have confirmations/things like that? Are there age limits?

There's many differences between their denomination and the others. I can tell you about it, if you'd like.

I go to a church, and it's been a great experience for me, as a matter of fact, we met that friend through the church. One of my old teachers even volunteers there.

I would love to hear about anything you remember/know involving any types of angels Here or PMs or wherever, if you're comfortable talking about it or anything? I might not have much to say in response tho I'm fairly uneducated..
