Hello everyone. Pardon me if I might talk in third person every now and again.
I'm 14 years old and grew up in a christian family, but like every other person gets in their life is a bit confused. Last night I was reading my Bible, specifically Revelations, and I got really scared. So, as a result, I told myself that I should do something about it. That's when I got the briliant idea to join a christian forum. It's worth a try, no? since I am on the internet most of my day anyway, I might as well hang around people who can help me.
Thank you for listening to my somewhat ramblings

Hi The Spoon. (Interesting handle.) You've come to the right place! If you look in 'Prophesy - Current Events' you'll find many threads about Revelation. I believe you will find the consensus is that the times described in Revelation are wonderful, exciting times: for a Christian the end times are a reason of celebration rather than a reason to fear. Welcome and keep looking up! JN

Cool. Thanks to everyone.
Just a quick question though: Is reading books like Stephen King or other such thing bad for a christian to do? (Just wondering because I'm really into some of his books right now)
Scratch that. I'll just ask in the book section. ^^

Hi spoon! I too am a Revelation fan.......no need for fears. When I first got saved I flipped over to the last book and saw that we are on the winning side.

Hey wow.. three replies. Am I totally slow or what? ^^
Anyway, the whole thing of Revelations scared me. Especially the part where the angel says "I know where you live" when he's sending the letter to one of the churches. I had to read that part again to make sure I got it right.
And the whole firey death deal thing.
Or perhaps the fact because it was three in the morning when I read it and currently high on sugar... Either way, it was creepy to me.
