Ask Paul Any Questions You have
New York Times
Dear Paul, I have been very confused about what Christians actually believe in. I am currently a Gentile who would like to know about the Christian faith. Please help! Thank you- Unknown
It is ok to be confused. I will help you understand what Christians believe in. We believe that there is only one true God. Also Jesus Christ suffered and died for us. We believe in God our father, God the son, and God the Holy Spirit. Also we believe in the blessed trinity and if we are truly sorry for our sins God will forgive us. I hope this has helped you know more about the Christian faith and you are not as confused as before. If you have any other questions please ask me.
More questions for Paul
Dear Paul, I am a curious Jew who would like to know if Gentiles want to become a Christian do they have to follow Jewish law.- Curious Jew
We are discussing this matter right now. On my behalf, I think Gentiles should be allowed to become Christian and not have to follow Jewish law. This is because Jewish is a separate religion. I believe that Jews that get baptised shouldn't have to follow Jewish law either. I will get back to you on this matter after the discussion.
Dear Paul, I am currently a Gentile. I would like to which to the Christian faith, but I am unsure what it means to be a Christian. Please help me know what it means.- Unsure Gentile

Dear Paul, I am a Christian who is married, but we have been having a lot disagreements and arguments lately. We would like to know if we are allowed to get divorced or should we ask for help from God.- not happy husband and wife
No Christians are not allowed to get divorced. They are allowed to get an annulment. An annulment cancels a marriage between a man and a woman.Annulling a marriage is like pretending it never happened. God would like you to try a handle things on your own and still be together or ask for help from the Holy Spirit,but you can get an Annulment. I hope the best for you and your wife and everything gets handled well.

Christians go to church every Sunday to feel closer to God and receive the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. We pray to God for forgiveness and thanking him for everything he has given us.

Dear Paul, I am a Gentile who doesn't like to wear special clothing because I am very clumsy. I am deciding if I want to convert to the Christian faith, but I have one question. Do Christians have to wear any special attire or clothing?- Deciding Gentile
No, Christians do not have to wear any special clothing. Although when Christians go to church they wear nice clothes for the presents of God. Also if you go to a Catholic or Private school you have to wear a uniform to school everyday.When you receive sacraments, you have to wear a dress if you are a girl and a suit if you are a boy.
Dear Paul, I am currently a Jew. I have made some sins but i don't know if God will forgive me. What should I do?- Sorry for my sins Jew
Of course God would forgive you. You should go to penance and tell the priest you are sorry for your sins with all your heart. The priest will ask you to say some prayers and God will forgive you, but only if you are truly sorry for your sins. God would be more than happy if you were sorry for your sins. He also knows nobody is perfect and everyone make mistakes. I hope you are sorry for your sins and go to penance.
