My life is a black hole. 36, health problems, never had a girlfriend, charged with crime and soon have trial, probably soon have a criminal record, hate my parents and siblings, have no friends. Not much desire to read the Bible but when I try I don't understand any of it.

I don't understand by what you mean when you say you don't understand the bible, what don't you understand?

You have to want to change your life for the better. All of us are sinners, we are lucky to keep our nose clean, because we certainly have the capacity to fail. We are all capable of "letting it all hang out."

Living as a functioning member of society is a matter of internal warfare. It's hard, because from what you say you've lacked positive role models. There is nothing easy about living in society; we Christians are so bad at social living that we spend our quiet moments in prayer, asking God fervently for everything to work out, even just a bit. We believe that prayer is necessary because nobody knows what will happen tomorrow, only God.

People may object to my characterization of Christians as bad at social living, but sin is the condition of being bad at social living. So I rest my case.

You need to turn this around, and you can turn it around; in life everything is permitted, but only some things are beneficial. You need to learn what is beneficial, and do that. I doubt telling you about the Bible is going to help at this stage; it will all sound crazy if you don't have the right mindset. The right mindset is believing that your life can change for the better, and that God rewards those that earnestly seek him. You never said you wanted either to know God, or improve your life.

Find a good Bible believing Church and talk to someone in person. When you do read the Bible pray the Holy Spirit guides you. Pray Daily the Lords Prayer it teaches us how to pray for forgiveness for our needs.

He didn't say so, so what are you going to do? Gang-convert OP?

This thread is not the deja-vu you think; if it were, it would be something like:

>OP despairs, life is unbearable

>OP reads the Bible, seeking answers

>OP understood the Bible

>OP needs assurance that it is credible

What this OP said was different, OP said he lacks understanding, and never asked to be enlightened. Get over yourself; not everyone is in a situation where they have a remote chance of accepting God's gift of salvation. Try not to be a Marcionite.

Just so the OP knows, I don't mean to judge you, but it's a question of what's practical. And what you need given your testimony is clearly some general life skills. The guy calling me a dumbass clearly thinks that if everyone gets beaten over the head with a Bible they suddenly become better people, whether they want religion or not.
