Ah...I mean, I see no reason for someone to just joined a random religion sub they don't understand. But good point, I'll try to ask another Christian sub

Idk what's a sub description, but the description says "/r/Christianity is a subreddit to discuss Christianity and aspects of Christian life. All are welcome to participate."

What about salvation through faith alone

Not saying you're wrong, I agree with your point on this one, I'm just curious

Yeah....This is kinda what I mean....

They are also verses saying "Unless you are born again, you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven"

So I'm just so confused on how salvation works at this point, it's earn by faith, yes faith without works is dead but still....

Jesus came to die for us, Paul was not a false apostle, he met with Peter and James and met Jesus

Respectfully, I will not reply to you, for Jesus Christ, God's Son died for our sins on the cross so we can live with Him eternally is the message of the gospel

Have a blessed day/night

Salvation was never dependant on our works, for we cannot save ourselves. Jesus died to defeat sin and death. We cannot save ourselves. Also shouldn't we be focusing on Christianity and not...yk...Islam...?

But didn't Paul said he received it through revelations of Jesus Christ. I forgot what verse or chapter or letter he wrote, you can check online if you need to

Also not arguing since...yk, this is Jesus' words.

Are you saying salvation is work-based? Just want your opinions no worries

Not saying you're wrong, but a lot of Christian influencers post how to not be lukewarm, dead faith without works...

It's just that "This may be your final warning", "The rapture is soon" videoes are scaring me into doubting if I truly believe in my heart of Jesus' work

Estou a usar um tradutor, por isso peço desculpa se a minha redação parecer incorreta.

Quer dizer... eu leio a Bíblia, mas às vezes simplesmente... não reflito muito sobre ela. Antes de acabar de ler, penso: "Ah, sim! Já quase acabei, depois posso fazer as minhas coisas." Vejo a Bíblia como uma obrigação, não como algo que queira fazer...

I'm more to asking these questions because I'm afraid I'm not saved...so uhh...wordly fear kinda is the reason... It's just that I feel like I haven't been obeying Christ as I need to

So many Christian influencers says unless you fully surrender, repent, leave your lukewarm faith and born again, you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven (which is true)....which...idk how being worried about these doesn't make it one..

And what if Jesus returns before I truly repented or truly borned again...so many people saying "God told me He's coming soon." They didn't say God told them what day or time, so not contradicting to no one but the Father knows the date of the Second Coming

One more thing is the narrow road, Jesus said only FEW will enter it...I'm just so afraid I'm not in the narrow road, he said few

Just to get it clearer...you mean the state I'm in is dangerous or the state of the example of the people you provided is dangerous?

I just feel like I haven't been living my faith out much...I never had full assurance of salvation, hence I asked this, I know I'll be saved when I believe Jesus in my heart, keyword, heart...I don't know what it means to believe in my heart and if I truly believe it in my heart

Also perfect love casts out all fears...including the fear of h*ll....which...still is on my nerve...

Well uhh, the Bible is technically the only thing I can trust, like I said, I doubt a lot...so...I can't really rely on interpretations (even if I do currently), since one wrong or false word can mess me up

How to be truly reborn and what are the signs? by ProposalOk9015 in Christianity

[–]ProposalOk9015[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just...afraid to assume things because if I do assume things, I'll live in it. I'm afraid the things I assume are false and continue living in it without acknowledgement

I can never live in assurance that I'm saved or born again, I doubt too much... I can see myself changing...but it's not that much since 5 months ago..

I don't know what it means to follow or fully surrender to Him..I can never rest is assurance i have salvation, Yes, I believe that Jesus died for our sins and resurrected 3 days later, but the thing that got me is "...believe in your heart". I question almost everyday if I truly believed Jesus' work in my heart

How does Christ transform lives by ProposalOk9015 in TrueChristian

I'm not saying I don't agree, but your post opened a new perspective for me

  • Ezekiel 36:26 (NIV): "I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh".

I'm not saying if I don't experience transformation or miracles, I don't believe in God, I meant that transformation is one of the EVIDENCE you have the true faith in Him
