FORREST GUMP GOES TO HEAVEN

The day finally arrived. Forrest Gump dies and goes to Heaven. He is at the Pearly Gates, met by St. Peter himself. However, the gates are closed,and Forrest approaches the gatekeeper. St. Peter said, 'Well, Forrest, it is certainly good to see you. We have heard a lot about you. I musttell you, though, that the place is filling up fast, and we have been administering an entrance examination for everyone. The test is short, but you have to pass it before you can get into Heaven.' Forrest responds, 'It sure is good to be here, St. Peter, sir. But nobody ever told me about any entrance exam. I sure hope that the test ain't too hard. Life was a big enough test as it was.' St. Peter continued, 'Yes, I know, Forrest, but the test is only three questions.

First: What two days of the weekbegin with the letter T?

Second: How many seconds are there in a year?

Third: What is God's first name?'

Forrest leaves to think the questions over. He returns the next day and sees St. Peter, who waves him up, and says, 'Now that you have had a chance to think the questions over, tell me your answers.' Forrest replied, 'Well, the first one -- which two days in the week begins with the letter 'T'? Shucks, that one is easy. That would be Today and Tomorrow.' The Saint's eyes opened wide and he exclaimed, 'Forrest, that is not what I was thinking, but you do have a point, and I guess I did not specify, so I will give you credit for that answer. How about the next one?' asked St. Peter. 'How many seconds in a year? Now that one is harder,' replied Forrest, 'but I thunk and thunk about that, and I guess the only answer can be twelve.' Astounded, St. Peter said, 'Twelve? Twelve? Forrest, how in Heaven's name could you come up with twelve seconds in a year?' Forrest replied, 'Shucks, there's got to be twelve: January 2nd, February 2nd, March 2nd... ' 'Hold it,' interrupts St. Peter. 'I see where you are going with this, and I see your point, though that was not quite what I had in mind....but I will have to give you credit for that one, too. Let us go on with the third and final question. Can you tell me God's first name'? 'Sure,' Forrest replied, 'it's Andy.' 'Andy?' exclaimed an exasperated and frustrated St Peter. 'Ok, I can understand how you came up with your answers to my first two questions, but just how in the world did you come up with the name Andy as the first name of Go

If anyone sees this, note that Jesus truly is The Way, The Truth, and The Life.


1. There are thousands of different religions in the world, and in the vast majority of cases people follow the dominant faith of the culture they were born into. Is it not arrogant and self-centered to think that your faith is the "true" one and all the others are false?

Answer: No it isn???t because others also do it but ours is the true way, we also have proof of many of the things believed.

2. What is the point of prayer? Surely your god knows what you are going to pray for beforehand - and has already decided on his course of action. Is it not absurd to think that you can persuade god to change his mind?

Answer: Yes God knows what is going to happen but he wants us to pray to him to show him our love and devotion

3. Why does god insist that you worship him? Is he insecure - or an egomaniac?

Answer: God does not insist that we worship him but he is very happy when we do, he isn???t insecure or an egomaniac

4. Matthew 1:16 "And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus."
Luke 3:23 "And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli."
The bible is full of contradictions (for a large list see here) - explain how, even with just the small and fairly insignificant contradiction above, the bible can be the infallible word of god.

Answer: The two are different genealogies one from Mary???s side and the other is from Josephs side, the other thing is there are not contradictories it is from different peoples point of views, not everyone is going to remember and describe one event the same way now that would be ridiculous

5. Thomas Paine: "Whenever we read the obscene stories, the voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and torturous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness, with which more than half the Bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we called it the word of a demon that the Word of God. It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize mankind; and for my own part, I sincerely detest it, as I detest everything that is cruel."
Please explain why the bible is referred to as the "good book".

Answer: Yes it has horrible and brutal parts in it but at least it is showing how real evil is it isn???t going to cover that up and mak

A girl went to a party and
she ended up staying longer than
planned, and
had to walk home alone. She wasn't
afraid
because it was a small town and she lived
only a few blocks away.
As she walked along under the tall elm trees,
Diane asked God to keep her safe from harm
and danger.When she reached the alley, which was a
short cut to her house, she decided to take it.
However, halfway down the alley she noticed
a man standing at the end as though he
were waiting
for her.
She became uneasy and began to pray, asking
for God's protection.
Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness
and security wrapped round her, she felt as
though someone was walking with her.
When she reached the end of the alley,
she walked right past the man and arrived
home safely.
The following day, she read in
the newspaper that a young girl had been in the same
alley just twenty minutes after she had been there and
had been raped and murdered brutally.
Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the
fact that it could have been her, she began to
weep.Thanking the Lord for her safety and to
help this
young woman, she decided to go to the
policice station.
She felt she could recognize the man, so
she told them her story.
The police asked her if she would be
willing to look
at a lineup to see if she could identify him.
She agreed and immediately pointed out the
man she had seen in the alley the night before.
When the man was told he had been identified,
he immediately broke down and confessed.
The officer thanked Diane for her bravery
and asked if there was anything they could do
for her. She asked if they would ask the man one
question.Diane was curious as to why he had not
attacked her.When the policeman asked him, he
answered, "Because she wasn't alone.
She had two tall men walking on both sides of
her."Amazingly, whether you believe or not,
you're never alone. Did you know that 98% of
teenagers will not stand up for God?
Repost this as if you truly
believe in God.
