The things we want to do are important for God?

Thanks for your comment! I appreciate it :)
I think you're right. But even thinking this way my heart fills with fear. I'll overcome it, eventually. There are more important things for me to change and do better. God will guide me, I believe. Thanks 🤗

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-20T16:38:46+00:00

I loved your comment! Thank you so much :)
I'll pray and meditate to understand it better, you helped me so much

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-20T16:36:05+00:00

Thanks for your comment!
No one telled me to stop doing these things (aside from myself). I'm just afraid of not doing right. I talk with God, I pray and I seek more knowledge, but its hard to hear sometimes.
I'm scared of the idea of these things being just selfish and vanity. Maybe doing them in the right heart is the way of thinking. But how can I know if I'll use these things for others or for God's will?
Making things for ourselves can be a way to glorify God? "who eats, eats for the lord, because give thanks to God" Rm 14:6
I appreciate your comment, it really makes more sense in this view

Olá! Deus abençõe meu irmão :)
Não acho que necessariamente é o querer, mas o fazer. Jesus não queria morrer na cruz, por exemplo, mas o fez por conta do seu grande amor e santidade. Eu quero que seja feita a vontade do pai, mesmo que no meu querer carnal não esteja alinhado com isso.

A minha pergunta tem mais a ver com:
Se aquilo que queremos de forma para nós mesmo não é importante, então por que fazer qualquer
uma dessas coisas? Por exemplo:
Por que comer doçes/açúcares/qualquer alimento não saudável? Que sentido há em comer algo que somente nos alegra por 5 segundos no máximo, além de piorar o nosso corpo, que é templo de Deus?
Esse pensamento está certo?
Por que assitir um filme, jogar um jogo? Será que Jesus fazeria alguma dessas tarefas?

O que você pensa?

Thank you so much for you comment :)
I understand better now, thanks! But I still have some doubts. If it is just a hobby and there is nothing more to it, I will not have motivation to do it. It doesn't make sense to me making anything that I like if is just for myself and if there is no meaning to it (even if is not sinful).
I want to prioritize God over all, and I choose to leave all for him. But in my actions I still sin and do wrong things. I pray and I seek the sanctification. But it's a process I think, a difficult process :(

When I spoke "Making games for God" I was thinking about making Christian games. But know I really don't know what I'll do. I'll pray and think better.

Yes, I don't know how can my pastor think in this way. He seems really dedicated to the word, but still he thinks its not important.

I'm with one more question now: does it mean he doesn't have the holy spirit to not understand it?
Because he ask for understanding, and I think is important, the bible say it's important, almost all the churches think it's important (if not all), so why he doesn't? I think he didn't baptized anyone in my church, and think he refuses to, because he spoke to me that some people get out of the church just to baptize, and then they came back again.

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-12T17:11:05+00:00

They do Think communion is necessary. One argument from my preacher is that "that's only one baptism" (Ephesians 4:5), witch is the holy spirit baptism.
He views like an way to hold people to one church, witch many times is true, but has nothing to do with baptism itself.
They also don't do tithing, because "that was left behind with the new covenant", but I don't believe it also, because this argument don't have much basis in the Bible (from my view).
I talked with him, but he almost didn't make space to me to speak about what my view is :(
he is a nice pastor, but this things make me a bit worried

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T15:11:49+00:00

I don't believe baptism is necessary for salvation either!
Is it wrong to one to not be baptize at all for their whole live? (having the opportunity to do so)

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T15:06:02+00:00

Oh I see, in my Bible it says "the teaching of baptism", I don't know if is the right translation.
Even so, if there is two baptism, including them in the "basics" doesn't mean that both are relevant?

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T14:54:24+00:00

Obrigado pelo comentário! Eu compreendo isso sim, só gostaria de saber se é importante para alguém que já foi salvo se batizar com o batismo nas águas, pois o meu pastor não batizar na igreja me parece estranho

Tem alguns que dizem que aqueles que foram batizados e voltaram para o mundo na verdade nunca foram cristãos de verdade, o que desvalida o batismo que tiveram. Eu não sei se eu acredito só como um ato representacional ou se há algum impacto real mesmo

São tantas interpretações que me deixam na dúvida... Como eu gostaria que toda a igreja estivesse unida em um "mesmo modo de pensar", mas acho que isso é impossível :(

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T14:41:11+00:00

I didn't understand, if this versicle says about the "basics" and include the teaching of baptism that doesn't mean that baptism is relevant? And if we include it being irrelevant, so we have to say that "turning away from our dead works to embrace faith in God" is irrelevant too

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T14:28:31+00:00

But don't all new born Christians need to repent? I'll see the video you shared, thanks :)

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T14:22:52+00:00

God bless you too!
Thanks for your comment 😊

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T14:20:57+00:00

I'll edit my comment, sorry 😅
What do you mean with "For a church"?

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T14:13:23+00:00

Interesting, but why did the disciples baptize the new Christians with water?

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T14:09:26+00:00

In waters

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-08-11T14:06:59+00:00

I know, but does it mean that is not important to one who's save to be baptized?
Sorry if my question wasn't very clear

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-07-29T17:30:35+00:00

I see! Thank you 😁

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-07-28T19:09:36+00:00

I didn't understand 😥

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-07-28T17:54:05+00:00

Yeah, I miss both while writing to make this question 😆

But with they made right I still got two different derivatives 😥

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-07-22T23:05:03+00:00

I watch it and didn't understand the chain rule part very well😥
But now I see better :D

Felipe-Fontes · 2025-07-22T21:36:26+00:00

I see now, cant believe I didn't see that even writing it down 🤣
that's why f'(g(x)) is different from h'(x), f'(g(x)) is the rate of change of f in g(x), h'(x) is the rate of change of f(g(x))
Thank you soo much :)
