OP, I just think you worry too much is all. Jesus says "Lean on me, take my yoke upon yourself for its easy and light" The Lord does not heap heavy burden on anyone. Granted many people do go through hardship, but then no pain, no glory. The Lord uses that to teach His people to be strong in...

OP, as much as I commend your efforts reading through so much online biblical stuffs. Nothing beats sitting at the feet of the author of our faith and learning from Him. If you want to move a step further in your relationship with Jesus, you have to spend time with Him. Its a MUST. Its nice to...

God chose you, not the other way round. Romans 8:29-30 For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; 30 and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also...

Its not wrong. Jesus went to dine at a tax collector's house, tax collectors were known then as sinners and probably didnt believe in God. Through you, God may change the non believer. The only time you would need to draw a line or quit the friendship is if she influences you negatively

OP, "he who believes and is baptized will be saved" is NOT talking about water-baptism. Its baptism of the Holy Spirit. None of Jesus disciples baptized anyone with water, except maybe peter or someone else. I don't see water baptism as a prerequisite to enter heaven. Jesus did not mandate it...

There is nothing as such anywhere. No one is good but God. Even Jesus said it. But for the grace of God is who/what/how we are today. That is what we all have. GRACE. Any christian who boasts that they are good or better than others is probably a bit delusional. Only for the Grace of God, we...

To the OP, God is not looking at your going to church as much as He wants you to move closer to Him on a one on one relationship which is intimacy with the Heavenly Father...a Father-daughter relationship. There is nothing more important than knowing Jesus and understanding what He did for you...

Because God is a good God, who allows rain and sunshine to fall on both the godly and godless. God's nature is LOVE. He is impartial, loving, patient and very kind plus compassionate. He wants those you label as 'godless' to know Him as much as we know Him. He is not wanting any to perish but to...

sometimes it is better to pray out loud. WHEN YOU PRAY OUT LOUD. YOU are DECLARING the word of God. When it was written, if you believe with your heart and CONFESS WITH YOUR MOUTH that Jesus is LORD So in many cases, words spoken are far better. IN THE BEGINNING GOD created the heavens and...

You trust Him by reading His word and holding unto the promises therein! If He says no evil shall befall me, then they wont. If He says 'a thousand shall fall at my side and ten thousands at my right hand but it shall not come near me" then I believe that they won't The word of God is...

If God calls, He makes provision, and equips as well. You have to be sure God is really calling you or leading you somewhere. Many have followed deceitful feelings and have failed because God did NOT call them Once you are sure, then you can be assured God will take care of you. He is God, and...

Many people feel the way you do. Even Jesus weeps for His people a lot. Many who call themselves by His name do not do what He asks of them and their love for Him is only by words...not much substance to it. You can't change the world, but you can always try to make a difference to the people...

how does one person know/or can conclude another does not have the Holy Spirit because of the church they go to. The stunning thing about the God we serve is He is God and Only He gets to decide, and do what HE WILLs We don't have that power to judge or condemn others. No one can say for certain...

Just pray to God about it. He gives when we ask with faith. I really don't think turning the other cheek Jesus meant was to be a walk-over for everyone. Even Jesus was not a walk-over. The Pharisees and all who knew Him knew He was a man who knew who He was, and always stood up for the truth BUT...

God does love you. He loves ALL His children. your feelings is not how God works, so learn not to always rely on your feelings when it comes to God. If you sin, God forgives because He's a merciful God and what Jesus Christ did on the cross is what redeemed us all!

You really dont have to tell your church what you are doing and what forums you are on. Why would anyone be obliged to be doing such things? These are the examples of legalistic kinds of behaviour. I don't see why anyone should have to tell another everything they do. Church is not Jesus Christ...

very good post!

The thing with all the back and forth fighting going on on this forum and threads is that some simply have no clue. I read a few posts and I really shake my head cause some things are just so wrong. Leonfrost being one of them, I had to quote him below. I really hope for the people who go to him...

OP you are not wiser than God. Proverb 3:5 is for you. Lean NOT on your own understanding. If man's understanding & knowledge was that great or even tiny bit important, the earth will not be in the state that it is today. All those who rule and lead nations when you look deeply at their...

He speaks however your mind can comprehend. That's why some hear the audible voice if God and some never do. God speaks in many ways He can even speak through an unbeliever.
