    Doing good, helping others because you feel God wants you to, but not that u really want to

    Hi @Curiousmind It is always better to do something good and generous because you want to. However, if you only do so because you know God wants you to - you do no wrong. This is also good too. As you are showing that you are shaping your path and soul according to the wishes of the...

    Advice for New but older Christian

    You are welcome. The balance thing is difficult it this world of distractions, both pleasant and worrisome ones. I have been completely involved with the Word and excited, stepped away for a mere week for hobbies and suddenly the Bible seems hardwork to get back into and the vibe can be off...

    Advice for New but older Christian

    Hi @AJHnh It can happen, indeed. But it won't be because you have read or heard too much. Rather it's likely to be because you aren't being given good meals or you are before a wall. In terms of good meals I mean that the teachings you are getting are probably very vanilla or basic and not...

    The irony of telling God you're lonely

    Hi @seeker2122 Not at all! Adam met with Yahweh directly in the Garden and he still was lonely and needed a human companion. So how much more you who have never seen Him? Yahweh is holy and though He is with us always, He is not physically here - yet. So it's totally understandable if you...

    Being complacent

    Even if you don't feel called to do anything particular in the world for the world at this time, if we are really in the 11th hour, then the least you can do is serve God with your day to day life, by following His ways and giving Him the due honour and praise. That's not so much paving a...

    Being complacent

    Hi @Michu I understand your point of view. On one hand it is good to not be invested in this world, in terms of future plans and possessions etc. But on the other hand it is dangerous to become complacent enitrely and just wait for the end. This world is not just a training ground but an...

    How to press on?

    True. Little good has come from Facebook and tiktok compared to harm and negative impact it has had on the psyche of mankind. Nevertheless, don't compare yourself to others. However tempting and easy it might be. I've known christians that I thought were very holy and blessed and I felt as...

    How to press on?

    Hi @Faith over Fear I was saddened by your post that you are having such a hard time. Firstly, let me say to you that life here isn't meant to be easy, nor is there a smooth road guaranteed for you around the corner if you stay away from sin. This life is a training ground, for the true life...

    Very Mad At God For The First Time

    Hi @glenninindy, First of all, let me say I'm very sorry to hear about your situation. It sounds like you are going through a traumatic time. Death is a cruel slave master that comes for us all and it never ever gets easier to face him. So I feel your heart and I'm saddened by it. But what...

    I am just pathetic.

    Hi @Neostarwcc I'm sorry to hear of the heavy heart you are carrying at this time. How long do you think the righteous men of God such as Abraham and Issac had to wait until their wives got pregnant? Don't take blessings the the lack thereof as any indication of approval on your life. For...

    How can i overcome overwhelming, constant despair?

    Hi @StormInside Yes, it certainly seems like you are going through some turmoil at the moment. I'm sorry to hear you are going through such a horrendous time and I'm sure me offering a Scripture here and a Psalm there won't make any difference! But perhaps to small amount of advice I can...

    Is the salvation real?

    I feel your heart. You must seek the baptism of the Holy Spirit at all costs. Don't assume you have received this baptism. If you are unsure, then that shows you haven't. Also don't believe the popular notion that the baptism is accompanied with speaking in tongues. But when it happens you...

    Potential girlfriend affirms homosexuality, what to do, am I wrong?

    Yes, she is in the wrong but look how much you love her! Can you really turn your back on her because of this? Are you confident you'll find someone else a little more perfect just around the corner? Look at it this way, you probably think and believe things right now which Yahweh is...

    Need advice about previous thread

    Hi @BoBoMan Thank you for sharing details which are surely very personal to you. Without knowing the depths of your situation, I can only give advice based on what I've just read from you, and may the Most High make it of use for you. Do you know if you wife has trully forgiven you? Do you...

    How To Kindly Avert Nosy Questions At New Church

    Hi @AFLady71 I understand your heart on this matter as I'm a very private person too. However, I think what you ought to do is ask yourself what your motive is for going to church. The fundamental reason one whould go is for community and socialising with Christians. If you go there...

    Why does it always take more for me?

    Hi @princess34 What did the Messiah say? Did he say... "blessed are the blessed, blessed are those who have many friends, blessed are the smart and exciting, blessed are the good dancers, blessed are the successful and skilled"? This life is not meant to be about how successful you are...

    Feeling Sad All The Time

    Hi @EtainSkirata It often helps to look back at the time when things started to become that way. Did you disobey Him in any way? Or walk contrary to a conviction? Relationships can often start to go cold when an issue has been left unaddressed or one side feels unappreciated. If you...

    Why did God send his Son on earth

    That's the right attitude! As long as you stick with that mentality and keep on digging (especially if the answers you are given don't make sense) then Yahweh will certainly lead you to as much truth and wisdom as you seek - without at doubt. It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But...

    Why did God send his Son on earth

    Again, great question! The First Adam did not have a sin nature and chose to sin, which is what made it a tragic story. The Second Adam, in the same position, was tempted more and persecuted more than the First Adam ever was - yet held fast to walking righteously, even unto death. But just...

    Why did God send his Son on earth

    Hi @PrincessofGod18, Great question. I hope I can help. Adam (Man) caved into Satan at the very beginning and Satan took the ownership of the world from man, becoming ruler over them. All humans born after that moment were, effectively, born into a "prison world" of Satan and death. Who...
