Christians say you shouldn't question God
Snowfire:
Maybe they see the same way we hear thru spiritual ears.

Wow!!! IM SO impressed with all the information that has been given to me; I didn't think I would get this much. thank you all for answering my question.
I in a way frustrated by my friend's mother, its a long story. To make the story short. She, didn't like the idea of me telling her daughter about what I've been learning about from Bible truths website and reading articles and she recently told me as soon as her daughter left the room, that I shouldn't be telling her daughter these things and that I shouldn't get in the way between her and her daughter. She got upset when her daughter started asking questions about the bible and God. Her mom responded to her daughter's question by saying this quote "You shouldn't Question God" She had so many questions, so did I. I tried to answer her questions with what i already knew and told her to do her digging and go to church if she felt the need to go, because in my beliefs, church meetings such as these are the way how God brings his children to him, lets just say its the 1st step for new Christians to learn and have the milk before they can have the meat. the church are the baby steps for Christians so that they can figure out whats wrong with man-made doctrines. I didn't want to act as an stumbling block for that reason. Her mother kept on insisting that she and her family go to Church. I told her that it was fine, but I told her that it only takes 2 or 3 people to make that meeting and it can be taken anywhere- not just at the church building, because God lives in you, not in buildings. She disagreed, She kept on saying that you should go to a house of God to worship then I retaliated by saying that God wants u to worship him in spirit and in truth, and u can honor him in everything you do, and she kept on insisting that we go to church anyway to worship, praise and honor God on top of that and fellowship with other Christians. I told her that u can have that at a park, at a restaurant, or at the library or in your own homes. She got angry then cut me off by stopping the conversation. her and her family are of pentecostal religion I just discovered that their church wasn't the right one. I was just trying to offer them some comfort and guide by letting them know that they can still fellowship with Christans but in a smaller setting but they didn't like it. they felt that they need to go to a building. After the conversation i had with them, Ive learned not to talk to them unless they ask me, because I'm sick of how they make me feel. They trample me over, doesn't' even respect my beliefs. That's OK. I just didn't like the way she made me feel after she cut me off my explanations especially after I took the time to listen to her side. she just didn't' let me finish, and she just cut me off. responded in a way where she told me not to "influence" her daughter, because of my beliefs, because of what I've talked to her about church issue and about questioning God.
Thank you all again for responding to my questions. I've learned alot. when they told me not to question God. I knew something was wrong with them. I mean- its common sense to question, because that's how you learn and I had to check with you guys and see if it was OK. I mean i couldn't really say much to them after they told me not to question God because i didn't know the scriptures to back me up on that issue. I'm gonna just let it go with them because they are obviously not interested in learning right now. Thank you all and I apologize for not responding sooner.
Love and Peace, Denise :)
