have i crucified the son of god again because i was christian before my rebellion but not knowing much i had a terrible life but that terrible life led me to rebel and i fell away am i damned

Sounds alot like my life before God brought me back to the faith many years ago. See I had Christian parents, went to Church, learned the basics, came to Christ, baptized around the age of 8, didn't know much though, rebelled against what I knew to a great extent. God allowed it to a point, even the point where my life was on the line, and used that situation to cause me to do a 180 back into His amazing grace. Looking back, I do not know if God saved me at the age of 8, but I do know He saved me at the age of 20, more than twenty years ago now. A person cannot know if they are damned to eternity until it is too late to believe and repent and be forgiven. People often think their sins are greater than the blood of Christ, that they are beyond His reach, but that could not be further from the truth! The blood of Christ is greater than all of our sin, we cannot nullify the blood of Christ with our sin, and He is faithful to forgive the unfaithful, a bruised reed He will not break!

I have sinned against god and now he has hardened me I know the conditions of it and theres only left of me is a small will to repent but its silenced by a cover of hate that I cant get rid of my prayers are prideful it is no god its me I have no idea whats wrong with me I cant remember stuff and things I did are things that leave me damned I feel comfortable sinning and comfortable letting this go but something deep down is stopping me and I just hear repent all day long I have rebelled against god for months and chose the world over him because I thought he was causing my bad luck I was living a terrible life and that would have been my time to repent I cried all the time in that time but now I cant God hates sinners like me and I would throw myself in hell because I feel I deserve it I had no fear in hell because I was ignorant of most things I have not come to cry but to ask for help if there is any, just please don't tell me everything is okay

Romans 10:9-10 New Living Translation (NLT)
9 If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved.

If you had the choice, would you go back and make the rebellious life your permanent lifestyle, or would you run to God's throne of grace to find mercy and grace to help you in your time of need?

How much mercy do you think that God has and how much does He expend until He runs out?

What you need to repent of is your underestimation of God's goodness and mercy. 2 Corinthians 1 says that God is the Father of Mercy. He is more merciful than anyone else in the whole universe.

Also, He is not the Bible. He is greater than the Bible. The Bible is just a snapshot of the greatness and majesty of who He is. His mercy and grace is not limited by the Bible, because He is greater. Some people are so bound to the Bible that they think that God is the Bible. He isn't. The Bible is just a description of who God is and how He goes about things. Sure, His standards are there as well.

You need to repent of disbelieving the Scripture, "All sin and iniquity shall be forgive of men". He also says, "Come let us reason together. Though you sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow."

Here is another thought. The moment you first accepted Christ, you died with Christ when He died on the cross, and you rose to newness of life when He rose again. This means that as far as God is concerned, you sinful nature and self is dead. The life you are living is in Christ. God sees you as righteous in Christ. He does not see your lack of faith, your rebellion, and your sinfulness. What He sees is not the negative, but your potential in Christ.

You might have come the "easy beleverism way" when you first received Christ. You might have thought that all you had to do was to receive Jesus and things would be great. You might not have seen the extent of your sinfulness. Perhaps God is now showing you your own sinfulness, so that you will not have any confidence in yourself. The Scripture says, "We have the sentence of death in ourselves that we should not trust in ourselves but in God who raises the dead." Paul went through that. He saw his own sinfulness so much that he cried out to God, "How shall I be set free of the body of this death?" He then said, "I thank God, through Jesus Christ my Lord."

You are seeing your own stinking sin now, because a dead body stinks. What you are experiencing is the rottennerss and decay of your dead sinful nature. What we do is to bury a dead body, and in this way, the Scripture tells us to reckon ourselves dead but alive in Christ.

So, you are dead!!!! The condemnation you are sensing is not from the mercy and goodness of God. It is coming from a lying spirit that is trying to convince you that you are still alive in your sins. What you need to do is to resist the devil by telling that lying spirit to depart from you and take its lies with it. The Scripture says, "Stand fast in the freedom wherewith Christ has made you free."

You are justified (found not guilty by God), by faith. The Scripture says, "By grace you are saved through faith, and not of yourself. It is the gift of God." There are a lot more Scriptures that speak of the mercy and grace of God, than the one or two that the devil loves to quote to drop a "condemnation bomb" in vulnerable believers.

Take a look at 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. Because God is love, then this description is of God's own character and the way He deals with us. If He did not love us in the way the verses show, then we'd all be sunk!

I had the same thing , after i accepted Christ my life went worse and worse and my family was struggling a little bit and i blamed God for that what happend to us but it's getting better now .

You don't go to hell /heaven based on your works i hope you know that by the way .

I have and he wont because something is wrong with me I attribute to no use to him so I dont see why he would save me im not like John Piper or francis chan or any preacher why would he desire to save me I know far too much I dont wanna be like the people who are just comfortable knowing their going to hell I dont know how the cross can forgive me because unlike all people I have rebelled for months he would only save a normal person please just give me the hope I so long for because only few ever find forgiveness. I called evil good and good evil I hated christians and wanted them to be removed just like all those arrogant people in society then I read and realized theres no point for me anymore and if there was it would be swept away by doubt I feel only as an animal would I am willing to repent no matter if it were uncomfortable in any means but thoughts come inmind that are opposed to god I was always the different person in my classroom always the different person in any group I even debated against adults im only 14 I dont know if god wanted me at all I was with him at a point when the world hated me, I lived the most terrible life every moment it was like I disobeyed my parents I hated my life and I wanna hate it again but I didnt even count the cost for it at the beginning but then I started learning 10x as much after my long rebellion I always knew that in that rebellion I could be forgiven so thats really the reason why god would damn such a person he has left me for the desires of the world and the luck of the world to prove a point to me on the last day I just wanna really kill myself but I really dont wanna I have no idea what the point is to try to get god to have mercy on me or to be seperated as i requested in the time of my rebellion. My word is my word and if there were a mark of the beast most definitley I would be beheaded than take it thats how willing I am for heaven. Nothing on earth can remove that time of my life I think about it I dont know why god would forgive me I know his ways too much than a normal person please just dont tell me a sentence from the back of your head when you reply to me

please give me a verse from where you wouldnt care if you commited the unpardonable sin "THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS IN THIS WORLD OR THE WORLD TO COME"
They will all seek forgiveness but not find it in this world and I probably did what alot of people do and denied him for mere luck and people think their going to heaven but dont

You learned something wrong . else why were you angry at GOD
for what you call bad luck.
Your hopes were in your circumstances .
So were this other mans . He of course gave his list , and they were all false .
The thing was He never had truly known Christ .
My advice is start over . read only the bible and keep praying.
And your not condemned for evil that pops into your mind ,
When It does , PRAY it out . and never act it out . the war between the flesh that wars
against the spirit . ITS the flesh that pops that evil into your mind
You just need to stop heeding it . Have HOPE in Christ .
I thank GOD that HE did not reward me for what I deserved . Or it would be hell only.
Thankfully God , His mercy in Christ alone does keep and guide me .
What great hope their is IN HIM.
WHEN GOD draws us , HE PUTS HIS LOVE in our HEART
and that love , LOVES TRUTH , HE , no matter what it loses in this life , no matter
what threats come against that person..............ONLY HOPE in THE LORD abounds
in that heart . My advice , RELEARN CHRIST . Feast on the pages of the bible
and heed not the contrary evils that the flesh WILL and does pop into the mind.
Start over . And praise the LORD.

Don't you remember the parable of the prodigal son? God isn't looking for you utilitarian value as a preacher. As a Christian you are a son! If Paul in Romans 7:22 writes,

"For I delight in the law of God, in my inner being, but I see in my members another law waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members. Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin."

Had The Apostle Paul commited the unpardonable sin? Absurd!!!!!

Your problem is not firstly a sin problem. It is a knowledge problem. You don't know the nature of God's love, his sacrifice and atoning work, or the work of the HS. You are tossed around byneverynwave of doctrine instead of studying to gain maturity and renew your mind.

Paul answers his own question in the next verse in Roman's 8:1:

"There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."

Study the basics of salvation and you will stop this "I'm going to hell nonsense."

The unforgivable sin is rejecting Christ's offer of salvation. If you did that then you are in trouble but the HS is prompting you of sin, which means the HS is still in you!!! As the first responder to your post suggested, repent, ask God to help you to mature, andnthen do the hard work along with the HS of transforming your mind. No more diapers.

be careful



I edited the last part of my post.....forgot the rules....sorry....I was trying to jolt you and others out of listening to these blind guides that preach Lordship Salvation....compare this guys message to the True Gospel thAt Jesus revealed to Paul.Paul said believing this will SAVE us.......what more do you need?If you simply believe ,God will put His Spirit in you and God will Change you from the inside out.He does a better job than those who would prefer to beat you over the head demanding a change you ain’t ever going to accomplish by fear and will- power.Once again,I apologize for getting carried away and I sincerely wish you the best....God bless you in your search...

Faith without works is dead bro

What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?

You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?
