Blog 3 On Faith

Though people can help you along the way on your Faith journey, ultimately it is you that has to make the commitment. This commitment is hard for many people because of things that they cannot see. I don't think that it is the not seeing God thing that bothers me. The problem I have is with how the bible differs from the original texts, and how some of the original Gospels, and other books of the bible have been left out and discovered later. For example to me, It is interesting how the Gospel of Mark (the supposed first one to be written) does not include the Christmas story, or the birth of Jesus. That is okay, but I want to know where the other three Gospels found that information to just include in their stories. Some people say that the birth of Jesus is found in the mysterious "Q" Gospel. But I have trouble believing this, if there is this "Q" Gospel, where is it and why have we not found it over all these years. Faith is an ongoing battle, that I believe it is okay to question, because no body knows the answers and the more questions you ask maybe we will get closer to finding out what a true life in Christ is. All I know is that I am very curious about all these answers.
