I know and have 100% Faith in the Promise of God

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Acts 10:43
To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

Through the forgiveness of sins, by Jesus Christ we have an assurance of Eternal Life with Him.

If that isn't enough, Paul made this statement especially for you tonight, to build your Faith.

1Cor.15:19
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

Try reading your Bible, then when you have doubts, the Holy Spirit is then able to recall for you the correct Verse needed for your specific situation.

If you don't read on a regular basis, then how is God able to speak to you personally in you time of need?

It's just like having faith in any other person. When you first meet them, you have your guard up, you make sure you don't reveal anything too personal about yourself. As time goes on, you gradually find that you can trust them, and begin to relax in their presence, and reveal a bit more of your inner self. Eventually, you come to know them in a totally personal way, to trust them completely, and to share your thoughts and feelings freely. It works pretty much the same way with God.

I mean we all believe as hard as we can, but until the end, we can't really KNOW, can we?
Only with perfect love.
“For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith which worketh by love.” Galatians 5:6 (NCPB)

It can be a small as a "mustard seed" per Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Be blessed.

Man in the flesh might not know if God is real and His Word is true, but faith is real; and our hope, peace, blessings daily are real. We know we will die (if the Lord does not come first) so let us be at peace in the promise of our Creator-God and the eternal assurance and comfort of having salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ (note John 3; John 14; Romans 8; etc.). God says: "take no thought for the morrow" (i.e. as a mortal), so we need to live in the peace we have today in walking with our Savior: the Lord Jesus (our best Friend on earth).

Our faith is only as strong as the object of our faith. Jesus Christ is the object of our faith. Do you have 100% confidence in Him, who He is, what He has done for you, and all that He has promised to give you? That is the ultimate question.

Faith, as with the virtues of hope and especially love, has no limitations for growth in this life, meaning we can always have more.

That's a good point,.. I don't want to take too much away from the OP,.. but even though I have a bit of doubt in the strength of my faith myself,.. I answered yes to all of those questions. :)

Do not worry about the "strength" of your faith. Just focus on the truth of who you are in Christ and the inheritance you have received from God. The rest will fall into place from there.

I am a sinner and have repented and was born again as a new man by Jesus Christ, I was sanctified by the sacrifice of his holy blood. I try my best not to sin. When I do sin, I hate myself for it. I feel like I'm dying but then God's grace builds me up again. The experience of spiritually dying and living again is a daily experience as a christian for me.

Hi there, thank you. because of Covid 19 I didn't have the chance to get baptized yet but it was one of the greatest decisions I wanted go through with and still do.


The fact that you have not yet been Baptized is the root of all your problems.

At this point in your life, you are a Believer, but having not yet been Baptized you are no different than if you had never Believed, you have not yet transitioned to a Spiritual Being, you are still in your Flesh, you have only been Forgiven your sins, but having not yet been Baptized, you have not received the Holy Spirit into your life, you are not at this time Born Again, that will take place upon your Baptism.

As soon as you can get Baptized.

Jesus said.

Mar 16:16
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;

At this point in your Christian walk the only problem is you have not yet been Baptized, you have not yet died to the Flesh, you have not yet Identified with Christs Death and Resurrection, you have not yet been Born Again of the Spirit,.

Therefore you have not been able to overcome the flesh and the sins in your life.

Your not a bad person or anything like that, you just have not come completely to Christ yet.

Like I said

Congratulations upon your Believing, NOW Get Baptized and I can call you Brother.

Be Blessed in Christ.

PS.

If there isn't a Church you can become Baptized in, find a Born Again Christian and have them perform the Baptism, it's important for your Spiritual well being.

You can have 100% of Faith but you need wisdom from God. Because when you have the knowledge and understanding of everything, then you will have complete Faith.
Proverbs 2:6 says"For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding
Proverbs 3: 13-23 says"
13 Blessed are those who find wisdom,
those who gain understanding,
14 for she is more profitable than silver
and yields better returns than gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies;
nothing you desire can compare with her.
16 Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.
17 Her ways are pleasant ways,
and all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her;
those who hold her fast will be blessed.

19 By wisdom the Lord laid the earth’s foundations,
by understanding he set the heavens in place;
20 by his knowledge the watery depths were divided,
and the clouds let drop the dew.

21 My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight,
preserve sound judgment and discretion;
22 they will be life for you,
an ornament to grace your neck.
23 Then you will go on your way in safety,
and your foot will not stumble.
Roman 10:17 says "So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ

Baptism is NOT a means of salvation (a false doctrine advanced by certain religions depending on works ---one should meditate on 1 Peter 3:21. It only is taking a stand with our God against the unbelieving world (a right spirit). The Lord Jesus submitted to it to show His stand against the unbelieving world. Our testimony in obedience will bring blessings, but salvation is ONLY in receiving the Lord Jesus into our heart as Savior and lord of our life. We are not saved by works, but real faith ---as many souls on their death bed have found --without baptism. -1watchman

Agreed. Still a good post nonetheless. Can't say too much on an advice thread though.

I cannot respond to you, as per. post #9 to this thread.
If you would start another thread stating again your thoughts, then I would be able.
