I know its probably posted on here a lot but can anyone help me?
A couple of weeks ago I decided due to having an urge I believe from God (not long after being witnessed to a few weeks before which I believe was sent from God) to repent of my sins and I confessed Jesus as my saviour by mouth and in my heart.
Now I was born into a half Catholic/half Protestant family but not very strict. Sme members of my family believe if you are mainly good, and not a rapist or murderer then you are not really a bad sinner with God (like a lot of Christians) Now during my teen years I read born again websites, got scared and confessed but then became agnostic..... Now I read that if you have faith you cannot lose it so I am not sure how tha happened, but maybe due to me not really being committed and saying but not acting on faith.... I don't know.
Anyway, I was baptised a Catholic when I was born, but obviously a few weeks ago I confessed and asked to be born again, believing in my heart, and I have felt touched in my heart and the Word of God makes more sense... Now do I have to be baptised again AND if I don't will I go to hell and not be saved... For isn't there a verse in John tha says you need to be born of water ANd spirit.
Only thing is, I'm not sure which Church to go to and get baptised, also I know this sounds really stupid but I would be a bit nervous - but if its Gods will I will do it. But I can't do it right now, so does that mean at this moment in time I am unsaved.
Also, how do I tell if I am saved as one minute I get doubts, next minute I feel saved and feel touched and emotional. Or are emotions not a good indicator and can be tampered by Satan. All I will say is I do FEEL more love for Jesus and more understanding than ever and more of a willing to change. Whilst I still sin I find sin more of a thing I regret and try not to do now than ever before.
