Answer by Richard D
God is made of 3 persons. The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. All 3 added together is God, BUT each one by THEMSELVES is God.

Every HUMAN is a SPIRIT, we have a SOUL and we live in a physical BODY. You are a spirit, you have a soul and your spirit and soul are inside your physical body. (It is your spirit and soul that goes to heaven, not your physical body).

It is impossible to please God without faith. 2000 years ago God sent His only Son (LOOK TO THE FIRST PARAGRAPH TO REALISE WHO THE SON ACTUALLY IS) to die for the sins of the whole world. We ALL inherited sin from Adam when SATAN deceived Adam to sin in the Garden of Eden. AND on top of that we ALL sin everyday. (There would be no such thing as sin in the world if Satan did not exist).

In the eyes of God – we are FILTHY SINNERS because ON TOP of inheriting sin from ADAM, Satan CONTINUOUSLY DECEIVES the world to sin. So EVERYBODY in this world is FULL OF SIN. God HATES SIN.

NO FILTHY SINNER can get into heaven. This is why God kicked Lucifer (who is Satan) out of heaven – He was a sinner. But God made a way for us to clean ALL our sins away and get into Heaven.

2000 years ago, God sent His ONLY SON JESUS CHRIST to die, SPECIFICALLY for YOU in order to “purchase” your FILTHY sins so that ALL your sins will be taken away. THREE days later, God RAISED Jesus Christ from the dead and Jesus went to heaven taking with Him all your FILTHY sins.
It says in the Word of God:

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotton Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.

(“Perish” in the above scripture means GO TO HELL).

THE ONE AND ONLY WAY to go to HEAVEN is to:
1. Say with you mouth and believe in your heart (your spirit) that Jesus Christ is your Lord and personal Saviour and that God raised Him from the dead taking away your sins.
2. Ask God to clean away your filth and take away ALL your sins.

When you do this by FAITH The Holy Spirit (LOOK TO THE FIRST PARAGRAPH TO REALISE WHO THE HOLY SPIRIT ACTUALLY IS) will LIVE inside your spirit and God will recognise you as one of His Children, and when you die you will go to Heaven.

How can I help my sister with drug addiction?

Question by hasu: How can I help my sister with drug addiction?
My younger sister recently admitted to me that she has been taking drugs, she is only 19 and still lives at home with our parents. She has come to live with me temporarily and has begged me not to tell anybody else about her problem, but I don’t know how to help her! I don’t have any experience with any of this. To be honest I am finding it difficult to support someone who has terrible mood swings and can often be aggressive with me. I don’t want to go behind her back and tell anyone else about her problem, but I don’t think I can cope alone. What should I do?

Best answer:

Answer by Trevor
Caring for someone with a drug addiction can be very difficult, your sister’s emotions will be all over the place and she won’t be able to control her mood and her aggression, which in turn makes it very difficult for you to stay positive and supportive. If things are really getting to you, maybe you should tell her that you both need help, you could seek professional medical help and also speak to your parents about the situation, the more support your sister (and you) have, the better. The most important thing for you to do is stay supportive of your sister and positive about the situation, but in order to do this you must take time for yourself to recharge your batteries. Try to escape from the situation for short periods of time, when it is safe to leave your sister, so that you don’t get overwhelmed and stressed out. Here is an article from the UK’s NHS service on caring for a drug user: http://www.nhs.uk/CarersDirect/guide/kinds/Pages/caring-for-drug-misuse.aspx this should provide you with more information about how to help someone with a drug problem.

If you still feel like you need to speak to someone or need more help in this situation, then think about speaking to SANCA (South African National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence), find contact details and useful information on their website: http://www.drugaware.co.za/contact.html.

When I was kicking my crack addiction I didn’t make it easy for the people trying to care for me, they could have easily have given up on me but if they did I honestly don’t think I’d have become sober. Reading my story, http://www.SecretsMakeYouSick.com may provide you with some comfort, and open your sisters eyes to the reality of her problem.

I’m making a dare (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) poster and need ideas?

Question by emptybliss76: I’m making a dare (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) poster and need ideas?
My 5th grade DARE officer told us there was a poster contest and that the three winners from each class will get a prize and their name announced at graduation. I need a good idea to enter the contest. It has to be easy to look at, and i can use computer generated pictures, pictures from magizines, or draw them myself. It has to contain a few facts on drugs. Oh, and it has to be do by April 24th.

Best answer:

Answer by LiL ALi
Well one idea is to take a few of your friends and have a group looking really bad and all gangster looking and make a few “fake cigarettes” from rolled up paper and take a picture of them (maybe if by any chance you can get your DARE officer behind them to look as if he might be coming after them) Then you can take another picture of a different group of kids just standing around studying or chatting or something. If you can get someone to crop the two pictures side by side your motto for the pictures can be “DARE TO BE DIFFERENT” or something to that effect. 😉

What treatment center?

Question by jadehope: What treatment center?
hi I’m a 19 year old female who has been secretly suffering from anorexia and bulimia for about 4 years. I have decided it’s time to tell my parents and receive treatment but I don’t know which treatment center is right for me. I know a lot of treatment centers also deal with other mental illnesses like bipolar disorder among others and also addiction to drugs and alcohol. however I do not abuse or even use drugs or alcohol and the only mental illness I have is anorexia and bulimia. I want to make sure im picking the right treatment center for me. does anyone have any suggestions? by the way I live in new York so anything in that area would be more convient, but I’m not opposed to going out of state. and I’m also looking for an inpatient program.

Answer by Denisedds
You might get better answers and some personal experiences if you put this question in the mental health section rather than cancer.
To answer this question largely depends on where you live and what insurance you have. The hospitals I work for that have physic units handle a variety of problems and do not mix eating disorder patients with alcohol and drug abuse patient’s as the needs are different.
I am so glad you recognize your problem and want help fixing it. A lot of people don’t. You can do anything you set your mind to do. Best wishes.
