Question
Hi,
I'm 16 and I'm really trying to be right by god. This new year I promised myself and got that I would be better in him and work on my goal to get into heaven. Now I read my bible every day before school in the morning as I'm eating breakfast. In all honesty I don't really understand the bible nor do I know in what order to read for me to fully understand and incorporate that into my life. I pray every night and I feel that god has blessed me but I find myself sinning a lot, especially lying. I know that the end is near and I really want to make it to heaven but I don't know how. I'm sorry I know that this is going all over the place but I have so much to say and so much to ask and I don't know how to communicate it. Basically I'm a confused person. My question is what do you suggest that I do? I can't really go to my pastor or youth pastor because my church is huge and i don't feel comfortable talking to them.
Thanks so much and god bless you.
Lily,
Thank you for your question and the opportunity to help. what I would like to do is suggest that you read through a few Bible study pages on our ministry web site that I believe will help answer some of your questions especially the third one). After you have read through these, feel free to write back and we can discuss any thoughts or questions you may have. Okay?...

Expertise
As a born again, Holy Ghost filled minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ I am available to answer questions concerning most all Biblical doctrines, the gifts and fruit of the Spirit, "Pentecostal/Apostolic" issues, and the history of the Pentecostal movement.
For more info check out our web site at... I gave my heart to the Lord a few months after being married during a revival meeting. A few weeks later I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and I have not been the same since!
In those twenty five years we have only attended one church (Harvest Church), and there I have served there as an Elder for fourteen years. We minister in song with the choir and worship team. I am also the new member’s class coordinator, men's ministry director, and the Harvest Riders motorcycle ministry president.
In 1993 the Lord called me to "...preach the Gospel where ever I open the door..." I have had the privilege of ministering God's Word to churches in Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas. In those meetings we have seen the Lord save, heal, deliver, and fill people will His Spirit.
