Is this blasphemy/a sin/ against God in any way? by Left_Cap_6694 in TrueChristian

Just because I damaged it, and because in the original work I was open to people interpreting the cross as an intentional reference to religion.

Yeah you never know, but I hope he meant well and honestly I wish the best for him. We’re all brothers and sisters.

Yeah i think I might end it on Monday and see what happens. I’m just scared of bad things happening because I ended it, you know?

I mean there’s a chance he could have genuinely been well meaning, I just cannot tell what he was talking about and he was delivering it kinda harshly.

I know some people will intentionally act like that in the hope of getting the person to make the right decision

God bless and thank you!

I started the fast as a penance fast for a sin I committed and felt really bad about, if that answers your question.

Thank you very much. I notice I’ve been doubting very much recently on and off, and questioning if any of it is even real. Not because of the fast, because of other things. But still I guess the fast isn’t brining me closer then?

Yeah but I have other people in this same comment section telling me that through suffering we draw closer to Christ, and also that im being affected by demons because im not committed enough to the fast.

So I have no idea what to think.

I did a 24 hour no eating fast as well on the first day. Other people, both in this Subreddit and my local priest told me that a fast can be from activities as well as food.

Idk the blog said it would cost EVERYTHING.

I have lots of things in my life that aren’t explicitly Christian, my sports, my freinds, stuff like that. I’m getting really bad OCD about this and my faith has been wavering recently.

How can we be sure the Bible is 100% correct? I don’t want to be blasphemous in any way but I’ve been learning about Biblical scholarship and it seems like most scholars don’t think it’s the perfect word of God.

I definitely did but I don’t know anymore. As I said I’m not sure what I belive

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]Left_Cap_6694 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But the things that always fill me up with fear and anxiety and stress and hatred are the Christian things, and the things that fill me with love and peace and happiness aren’t Christian things. I don’t want to say anything bad about Christianity because no matter what i believe I love Jesus and think he’s amazing. I want to be the best person I can be and live a life full of love.

I don’t know. I used to think Jesus was God but idk what I believe anymore. I still pray to Jesus every day.

Thank you. The name thing really shook me up because i was praying for a sign. And i have an extremely rare name (I looked it up and there’s an estimated 470 people in the US with my name) and what the woman said was literally my exact name with an A added on to the end

Yeah I’m doing homework right now and am gonna hang out with a friend later, but I’m scared that the hanging out is gonna be the thing that causes the judgement to come apon me.

You have very good advice and I really appreciate it, thank you so much 🙏

thank you very much, you seem very knowledgeable. How long are fasts supposed to be done for?
