God can’t sin. Sinning would go against His nature.When we make a bad choice or disobey God, that’s called sin. The Bible tells us in Romans 3:23a: "Everyone has sinned."

Yes, God created the universe.The Bible tells us in the Book of Genesis that God spoke everything into being (Genesis 1:1-31). God literally created the world out of nothing.

God probably didn't create life in outer space.We don't really know if there are any creatures or people in outer space.

Heaven is a real place, but the location is unknown.The Bible teaches that every person who believes in Jesus as God’s Son will live with God in heaven for eternity (John 3:16).People often talk about heaven being in the sky, but if you fly a spaceship into space, you won’t bump into it. Heaven exists in an unseen world that Christians will go to a

Everyone has doubts. Whether or not you have doubts is not what determines your salvation.God is faithful and He wants us to be confident that we are His child. In fact, 1 John 5:13 says, "I’m writing these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God. I’m writing so you will know that you have eternal life." That verse says that we can

Holy is a word that describes God.There are lots of words we can use to describe God: love, mercy, truth, justice, and more! Saying God is holy means that He is sinless and perfect.

God commands us to tell others that Jesus is the only way to heaven.The story about Jesus is good news! In the Bible, Jesus says His followers should tell other people about Him.

God has been alive forever."Forever" can be hard to understand. It means God was living before your parents, grandparents, or your great-great-great-great-great-great grandparents were born, and even before that.
