Thoughts about rejecting God/Christ

[Job405]

Last night while watching a YouTube video I had several thoughts about rejecting God/Christ while not actually believing these thoughts. In my heart I have not rejected God/Christ but I had these thoughts. I've had the enemy bombard me with these kind of thoughts before but these were from my own mind although not entirely intentional. Maybe I could have stopped some of them, idk.

Do you guys think God will forgive me? I definitely do not want to ever actually reject God in any way. I'm just a messed up person and I have these evil thoughts sometimes. But its not whats in my heart.

Have I rejected Christ due to these thoughts? I don't think so, but I don't know how this spiritual stuff works. It's all so confusing.

Rejecting Christ is not a momentary thing. It is a decision one makes.

Can you elaborate?

Well maybe you need to say more. You had thoughts but did not believe them. Then you did not give them your allegiance. Why would you be concerned?

As 1john1:8+9 says he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and Purify us fro all Unrighteousness.

As a suffer of OCD please find the article ' 25 tips for successfully treating your OCD.'

It contains very helpful tips on dealing with intrusive thoughts.
A key one is don't fight, suppress or argue with them, just acknowledge them.
They are not real and God knows the effect they have on you, he will no more condem you for intrusive thoughts then he will condem a bedridden person for not attending church.

He knows the extent of your problem.

Of course he will forgive you. You spotted it knowing the enemy was bombarding you. What a trickster he is. God knows you don’t want to reject him. Good for you that you were able to discern where that thought was coming from!
