“Whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.”
(1 John 2:6)
We are people whose deep desire is to follow the example of Jesus Christ, obey His word and practise brotherly love as the New Testament Christians did. We seek to understand God’s will through our daily discussions and reflection on the Bible, and by applying it to our lives. The fruit of it are these articles on our website.
Now when they heard about Jesus they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “What shall we do?”
(Quoted from Acts 2:37)
In the year A.D. 30 many Jews and God-fearing Gentiles who had gathered in Jerusalem for the Jewish feast of Pentecost asked this question after hearing Peter speak to the crowds about Jesus.
We also asked ourselves this very same question, as does everyone who thinks more deeply about the sense of life, regardless of whether they are an atheist, a Buddhist or a Catholic.
We have come from a wide range of backgrounds, religious and non-religious, but we have all come to realise that the many different paths available do not lead to one and the same destination. There are so many ways out there to choose from. So the question becomes: What is the right way? What is truth?
When it comes down to it, it is not possible for two opposing and contradictory alternatives to exist simultaneously—one for you and one for me.
Consider these examples: Is there God? Is there life after death? If so, is it about a repetitive cycle of reincarnation or is it about a one-time resurrection? Does man have free will regarding their destiny or are they predestined by God? Does eternal hell exist? And this list goes on and on…
Questions like these ought to inspire everyone who wants to get to know God’s nature to form an opinion. Can we remain indifferent when faced with these questions if we are interested in finding out how to live according to God’s will?
To find answers to these questions we do not need a new revelation, or some kind of new special method of interpreting the Bible. We rather believe that truth is accessible, because Jesus revealed it to mankind.
In our society, the view that the truth is relative is the predominating ideology. People paint their own picture of heaven, choosing the colours from a palette of their own desires and wishes, creating their own religion, which seems to fit well enough for the time being… In fact, religion is widely treated as yet another branch of the arts, like the world of fashion in which people shape trends and trends, in turn, shape people. However, God’s way is different…
