    sinners, backsliders & unanswered salvation prayers

    I'm a backsliding Christian. When I first came to the Lord I felt free from the Law for the first time in my life. I knew nothing about Christianity except that Jesus died for my sins. I was confused about it and I was 100% honest with God about my feelings for the first time ever, & from there...

    My Spiritual Growth Decayed cause I Don't Study the Word.. Help

    I'm a backslider trying to get back on the right path with God. When I was in the Lord, I didn't study my Bible very often which I believe is a major part of why my Spiritual Walk decayed so quickly. It's not that I didn't want to study the Word, as a matter of fact all I wanted to do was...

    Why Won't God Take Me Back?

    My Situation is this.. My Legalistic View started shortly after coming to the Lord. I was a smoker trying to quit when someone approached me & told me that the Holy Spirit can't dwell in a body polluted with evil (referring to my nicotine addiction).. When he said that something in my brain...

    Why Won't God Take Me Back?

    Long Story Short... I'm a backslider & have been one for over a month now and I really miss God.

I hate it, I tell God I...

    I received Christ but I can't quit smoking

    I received Christ early last month.. One thing I knew I needed to do was quit smoking.. Through prayer, faith & the Spirit I was able to cut down from half a pack a day to less than 2 cigarette a day almost instantly.. So I knew God was helping me.. But lately I confess I've lost progress &...

    Age of accountibility

    You can only be held accountable for your sins when you're capable of knowing/understanding right from wrong because our Lord is a FAIR judge.. Personally I don't believe that the age of accountibility is a specific age, I think it has more to do with an individuals mental capacity.. I believe...

    I cannot explain why we need the Holy Spirit, but I know why we do..

    If salvation is so simple, why is it so hard to explain? I received Christ as my Savior one year ago (Last February) but I was foolish & shortly after receiving Him, I got wrapped up in my own desires & concerns & I fell back into my old ways.. I knew I was wrong so I came back to Him in July...
