    Is doubt in god equal to heresy?

    Even the most grounded in Christ have doubted at some point. I was taught a basic premise of apologetics is a faith that cannot be questioned is not worth having. If one never doubted , how would they ever explain why they believe to those who don't? This is my outlook on the subject. I hope it...

    How do you resist temptation?

    The mind is the battlefield satan uses to draw us away. We are told in scripture to take every thought captive. That means, when the thought comes into your mind, recognize it for what it is, temptation from the enemy and then consciously make that thought be put under subjection to Christ. If...

    No emotion but hate

    I think one thing we must remember is this: Satan desires to steal , kill, and destroy. Coming out of the occult was the major achievement, but know this, satan does NOT want you to lead others to Christ, and would have you lose your way if possible. The night terrors are possibly spiritual...

    Losing my faith.

    I believe a faith that is not questioned, isn't worth having. Do not berate yourself for doubting, for I believe if the seed of truth is there, there will be no other conclusion you will be able to come to in the end. And in the end, your faith will be stronger. There are always going to be...

    Rock Music - Is it really a sin?

    ask yourself if it glorifys God , we are to all things as doing them unto God. Ask him and let him lead you in whether it is affecting you in that way.

    scared im going to hell.

    you arent forcing your beliefs on someone by telling them how wonderful Jesus is , or why you acepted him. It is our responsibility to tell the lost about him so they can make that choice. Those that are mentally handicapped, or in the middle of the jungle and havent heard of Jesus will not be...

Sin separates you from fellowship with God, but nothing can separate you from his love, the word says that, in order to restre fellowship, repentance is needed, it seems you have done...
