Answer #2

The biggest problem with Christianity is the people who sit around discussing the biggest problems in Christianity but then do nothing about it.

So sit and read this paper.

And when you’re done, move on to homework.

Then go hang out with friends.

Sleep.

Class.

Homework.

Eat.

Chill.

Repeat.

Then read this:

“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’” -Jesus
