Backsliding

[@Covelio]

We must rightly divide between salvation the free gift and costly works of discipleship. We are born again the moment we trust Jesus alone and apart from all else. Including our own performance and works. This is Gods will in John 6:40. 2 Timothy 2:15 | KJV Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, *rightly dividing the word of truth* Rightly dividing requires us to distinguish between the free gift of salvation and eternal rewards. Failure to do so, results in confusion and contradiction. Salvation is the present possession of every believer, rewards are the future prize of faithful believers. John 6:47, 2 Timothy 4:8 Salvation is received apart from works, rewards are received according to works. Romans 4:5-6, Revelation 22:12 Believers cannot suffer the loss of salvation, however believers can suffer the loss of rewards. 1 Corinthians 3:15 | KJV “If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: *but he himself shall be saved* ;yet so as by fire.”

[@sarahspeaksup]

@@Covelio absolutely agree this has been a current thought stream for me lately. Thank you for confirming. 🙏

[@Covelio]

@@sarahspeaksup I recommend Onorato Diamante, his teaching will help you further. Let me know if you can find him. Helped me a lot with understanding, all backed with scripture. God bless you 👊 could I ask, what versions of the Bible do you read?

[@sarahspeaksup]

@@Covelio thank you I will check him out.. I read from NLT and ESV. But often compare multiple versions on a verse study.

[@Covelio]

@@sarahspeaksup did you manage to find Ono on YT? Unfortunately, the other newer versions have had scripture removed, altered and added to. Repent in the Old Testament has been removed in the newer versions because it shows that God repented. So obviously that means repent does not specifically mean turn from sin. As God is without sin. There are many more, but I would recommend the KJV. Try it and use the other versions to help, but beware, this is one of the major causes for confusion on salvation today. The KJV is solid. Robert breaker on KZbin has some incredible sermons on the KJV for your information. God bless you ❤️

[@sarahspeaksup]

@@Covelio I did.. I listened to some stuff and I’ll take him with a grain of salt. 😁 yes yes I’ve been told before exactly what you are saying. My father was a big KJV only person and then he read the King James only controversy by James White and realized there really is no perfect translation and it’s better to compare them all. Pros and cons to different versions but I do understand where you are coming from and appreciate you taking the time to point me in a good direction ♥️

[@edwardbgilliard2374]

the backslide was definetly what i needed to remember that its his strength that keeps me

[@sarahspeaksup]

Amen & amen!!! for God to take me back after I rejected him to that degree just shows that no one is too far gone. He leaves the 99 for the one. The enemy would love to have a believer deceived into thinking they screwed up too much to be received by God again.

[@ERIN-n1r]

I backslid too. I have since recommitted my life to Christ and will. You’re not alone in the struggle. Believers need each other. Amen

[@sarahspeaksup]

Praise God. Yes it is a very real struggle the will of the flesh is so strong. We need each other to strengthen one another constantly to hold each other accountable, Jesus wanted us to love each other like brothers and sisters.

[@JustinT1701]

Thanks for you testimony! I backslid as I placed my faith in Jesus because I wanted to experience sins i never experienced and do things I never done. I took salvation in Jesus as a free grace card to sin. I went thru multiple relationships and troubles until something very bad happened to me in 2020. Now it’s 2024 and I’m still suffering from the PTSD of the situation all because I chose wickedness instead of Jesus. But now Ive learned how to walk as a believer in a way. I understand why I don’t have to sin anymore. And I’m now trying to deny myself but these trials are very tough. God bless you.

[@sarahspeaksup]

Thank you for sharing. Keep on doing good and conquering evil with good. Shift your focus, keep praying and maybe even fast if you are struggling with a fleshly desire. I know it has helped me in the past. God bless!

2nd comment: Yes! There IS power in your testimony! That instant change you’re talking about I have experienced as well. I was going through demonic oppression, saw evil faces at night while trying to fall asleep, and as soon as I called out to Jesus he came in an instant and rescued me. All the evil darkness left me and I was completely new. I never had issues w mental health before that oppression, I was in the wilderness for the first time. And Jesus got me out of it.

[@sarahspeaksup]

👏👏👏💓💓💓💓

[@leremydavis2638]

Sarah, our testimonies are a bit different but so much the same as well. I was 19 too when I got saved. I backslid by letting the world in too much. It sickens me to think of how unfaithful I had become after everything He did for me. No excuse! Time goes by and the flame goes out. Long story short, I too, always looked back at that day of 19 years old and could not deny what had happened to me. Though our story is a little different I felt like you were telling my testimony as I listened. Thanks for sharing.

[@sarahspeaksup]

Thank you so much for the feedback and honesty… what a forgiving, merciful God we serve . he gives us true life so that we can give it back to him, and there is no greater joy

[@choosingthegood]

Thank you for sharing your story and for being so vulnerable. I remember when I got saved at 20 y/o, I was radically changed and healed from additions and feelings of self-hate, depression, demonic attacks in my sleep and shame. A few months after being saved I started backsliding and like you mentioned, it didn't happen all at once but I felt myself getting more and more distant from the Lord. I remember looking for videos about other people's testimonies that got delivered from backsliding on KZbin and couldn't find any. This is more helpful than people who post these videos realise. So thank you again. The Lord has since had mercy on me and delivered me and I will post a testimony video of that soon by His grace to encourage and warn others of the seriousness of following Christ and how truly damaging being in the world is. God bless!

[@sarahspeaksup]

@@choosingthegood thank you for sharing your comment!!! Yes this was a very vulnerable video to make but as we see in the story of the prodigal, God welcomes us back with open arms when we come to him with our brokenness and true repentance.. i’ve never experienced such a close relationship with the Lord like I have in the last two years!! Imagine if someone would’ve told me, I’m too far gone to come back to the Lord?

[@jonathanmendoza4457]

Thank you for your testimony Sarah, I’ve recently come back to the Lord from backsliding into alcohol and pornography and so many different things and it’s been real difficult fighting my flesh and growing an intimate love for the Lord again and your testimony brings hope right now 🙏🏻

Hi Sarah :) I’m 22. At 19, I was also radically saved like you too, praise God! I backslid about a little over a year ago. I’m still somewhat in that state, but have been seeing more hope. It is hard though. But what you said about that initial experience being unshakable is so true. Unexplainable mercy. Thanks for uploading this, God has blessed yoy

[@charlenehall3525]

I backslid after my divorce I was bitter and frustrated, not sure how to feel about my situation then after settling down, I heard a voice say, "I love you"... I believe it was The Lord .. It was then that I knew everything would be okay.. God is merciful and will never leave no matter what, you can always come back and be forgiven. We eventually must learn to trust in Jesus because He truly loves us, Ever Present to help any time we call and Our Lord is there to fill us with His peace. Amen.

You made me think of when Jesus said “what the father gives to me is mine. No one will snatch them out of my hand” his love is so overwhelmingly beautiful and strong 🥲💓

[@SisterOliviaBrianna]

This video really touched me, I got radically saved out of witchcraft new age deception four years ago filled with the Holy Spirit and I was delivered from all alcohol and drugs vaping etc..but I ended up meeting my ex fiancé and slipping into fornication as a new believer and that’s over now but like just the past few days I’ve been literally shaking in fear that I’ve sinned willingly against the Lord after he revealed himself to me…this is encouraging he accepted you back…please pray for me if you could and also if you have any comments on when people feel like they can’t come back if they’ve backslid because of scriptures like Hebrews 6 and 11…I hope I see you in heaven sister!

[@sarahspeaksup]

The enemy wants you in fear, remember that. He is the great accuser. He would’ve loved for me to think oh, I have abandoned God already I’m not worthy to go back to him. The truth is once we are chosen, that’s it. We can’t abandon God. His love is unconditional for his children and he who started a work will finish it. Doesn’t say when or how but he finishes his work in us and HE gets the glory. You are loved my sister, meditate on His love for you psalm 139 … don’t let the enemy lie to you, own your identity in Christ and fill up on Gods word every morning !!!!!

[@joshuaroberts5083]

Sarah! You are so awesome and such a wonderful encouragement. Thank you so much for sharing that. I got saved 3 years ago at 18 years old (august of 2020) and was completely in love with Jesus, but 1.5 years after I started taking Vyvanse (lisdexamphetamine, which is basically legal meth lol) to help me work at a restaurant and started drifting in my heart from the Lord. Started listening to horrible music with demonic lyrics (Juice Wrld) and ended up distant from the Lord for the next 1.5 years until a month ago. The Lord is working on my heart and I have been so convicted. How HORRIBLE is backsliding. The thing is, it’s not willful at first. It is a slow progression and desensitization to evil things and one day you wake up and you’re like “how did I get here, Lord?” But praise by to Christ! “Nothing can separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord!” (Romans 8). “It is for discipline that you endure” (Hebrews 12). “All that the Father gives me will come to Me, and the one coming to Me I will certainly not cast out” (John 6:37). What wonderful promises! Jesus, hold on to us, don’t let us think more of ourselves than we ought to think. Man, pride sure does come before a fall. But, Jesus will always hold on to us. He may have to scourge us, but he will not let us go. Praise be to Christ. Sarah, thank you so much. I will pray for your continued steadfast walk with the Lord. Your brother in Christ, Josh

[@Dawnrazor93]

Oh wow I reaaaaally needed to hear this one! Those little whispers of doubt have been hitting me recently. It’s rough sometimes when old friends try to challenge your beliefs. Im not gonna lie, I freeze up alot when people come up and speak about how the Bible contradicts and this n that… and I get it because I was once in that same mindset.but I’m convinced non believers don’t look deep enough nor do they wanna accept divine discipline because it’s easier to “live free” , but it’s just false freedom because worldly freedom attracts chaos. sometimes it’s hard to come up with the words to say to defend my faith because that doubting deceptive spirit really creeps in and hits you in that familiar area. It’s as if our flesh immediately wants to sync up with that belief because it feels easier… I’m so blessed and fortunate that when I was confused and sucked into the new age universal spirituality/ occult satanic lifestyle, that god allowed spirits to manifest so I could see that there truly was and IS power in NAME OF JESUS!!! ❤ not to mention the many many other revelations and encounters I’ve had that have synced up to so many other peoples SAME experiences, which confirmed to me that Jesus Christ is truly our truth and security! So yeah… I’ve def been under attack a lot lately and have struggled with backsliding and also by having toxic opinions about the Bible thrown at me…I allow my flesh to make excuses for an out sometimes 😢 but when I feel discouraged I always try to look deeper and go back to my supernatural encounters.Thinking deeply about what he has revealed to me about the spiritual realm keeps me grounded in the truth! And you realize the Bible is our guidebook once your spiritual eyes are open!I just don’t think people look deep enough…. And I can easily see how it gets taken outta context to benefit the flesh! That’s what the devil wants! But God really wants us to seek him with our whole heart to find him you know? He really takes the smallest bit of faith and can completely blow your mind if you are open! I pray for my friends to have revelation and encounters with Christ but he does give us the free will and true love can’t be forced. I am so so thankful Jesus is showing me the TRUTH! We just have to be patient which has been the hardest thing for me! It’s a miracle I’m even here typing this honestly. I believe he’s delivering me from that doomy nihilistic hopeless mindset. The more I get to know his personality I realize he likes to communicate in various ways! And the more open and obedient we are It seems to give him more to work with. And before you know it you’ll be getting glimpses, dreams, and revelation like crazy! But only on his time. It’s important to study the word so you can discern every spiritual experience you encounter. Obedience really gives him so much to work with and before you know it you are getting answers you never thought you would know! ❤❤❤ I just wanted to vent some encouragement and let you know you aren’t alone!!!!! I’m still trying to shed my worldly skin so prayers for me please! I got y’all in my prayers too! Much love and god bless! ❤

Miguel you’ll definitely be in my prayers. Thanks for sharing and admitting that yes the flesh can fall into that doubting deceptive spirit.

[@stuart777RX]

The christian walk is messy, just consider backsliding as a sanctifying process. As you mature in Christ , you get a little better at staying on the narrow path, we all stumble because we aren't perfect until we reach heaven. As for the atheists, all arguments they present can be smashed by the word of God as it is truth . Study to show yourselves approved yet, all the knowledge of Scripture is nothing without Love. Love is what they cannot defend against. Look to Jesus , the author and finisher of our faith. ❤️‍🩹

Hi Sarah I'm a pilipino from philipines

[@M.Mantas]

One single unrepented sin is enough to sweep your entire house. I knew one man who had nice sand castle by the shore of the sea. It had stunning and beautiful shapes, it even had electricity in it. Imagine, sand castle with electricity! But suddenly the wave came and all what was left, was just a sand and the view of the sea. Don't wait. If you don't love yourself enough to keep up, atleast do everything in your power to maintain your neighbour's castle and maybe one day that castle will turn from sand, to rock. Good luck.

Yes I agree. Like this girl Kristi Burke who is saying that there is no God and that the Bible is wrong. I complained to youtube. I told them that this girl shouldn't be moneterized by speaking blasphemy against God and the Bible.

The Rundown - We are saved through faith alone in Jesus Christ, it is nothing to do with works or "repenting of sins" the words repent of your Sins is not even once found in the Bible. To repent just means a change of mind. Jesus Christ already died for you on the cross once and for all time to pay for our sins... This means that Salvation is now a free gift because Jesus Christ upheld the law for the whole world so that they "might" be saved by just simply believing on him... Once you have Believed You are Saved and there is nothing you can do too Lose your Salvation! Even if you have backslid/went astray! (Story of the 99 sheep and the one lost sheep) John 3:16 King James Version "For God so LOVED THE WORLD, ♥️🌍🤲🥰 that he gave his only begotten Son, (Jesus Christ) that whosoever BELIEVETH in him should NOT PERISH, but have EVERLASTING LIFE." Definition of believe: "To Accept As True Or Real"

Amen yes, the story of the one lost sheep that was me!

[@Covelio]

Amen! God bless you for sharing the truth here. Praise God! Many are suffering mixing law and grace. Let’s strive to live Holy, knowing that Jesus has already done all the work. Trusting in what Jesus has already done, saves us once and for all. This is what being born again means. Our walk will always be difficult but our position in Jesus is established and cannot be taken away from us. We are sealed until the day of redemption. Jesus will never leave or forsake us. Praise Jesus!!! Amen ❤️

I'm looking forward to that day when we meet in Heaven, not only to talk about your amazing KZbin channel but to worship our God and Savior in perfect truth and love! Although I have not delved deeply into the atheist "scene", I've heard a lot of the arguments against Christianity. But not once have I ever heard an atheist argue against the resurrection. When you look at their arguments, they are purely subjective. Sadly, they are able to convince Christians to abandon their faith because many Christians have also laid the foundation of their faith on their feelings. Please don't misunderstand me... our feelings ARE important and valuable and are what makes us who we are. All I'm suggesting is that if you want to have a faith that withstands the tests that we face every day, please focus some of your thoughts on who Jesus is in history. There is strong evidence both inside and outside of the Bible that there was a man named Jesus who lived 2,000 years ago, claimed to be God, was crucified, died, and was buried, then rose three days later and ascended to Heaven. Anytime anyone comes at you with "the Bible is made up" or "other cultures also have a messiah", sit down with them and show them the evidence. I think that you will quickly find that their arguments are subjective and not at all based on any kind of objective measures. Not only can you defeat the naysayers, but it will strengthen your own faith as well as you consider the evidence that anyone can examine for themselves. God bless you and your channel, Sarah.

Hey Sarah! Good video! I was wondering if you feel like you began being disgusted with your ex-husband and wanting to get a divorce because he took Jesus from you by slowly chipping away at your faith? I mean, you trusted him and he was supposed to protect you and keep you safe and he definitely betrayed you for his own selfish purposes. Ok, yes it was your fault too for choosing to let your guard down, but you know what I mean. I feel like it was a betrayal. But that's just my point of view and I was wondering if you came to the same conclusion? (ugh I had to edit this just to say I am not coming from a place of judgement of either of you! I know it sounded kinda harsh sorry)

Were you guys baptised in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues?

[@sarahspeaksup]

@@yakemalatyfa6575 no . recently someone provoked me to do an extensive Bible study on this topic and it may be a false teaching , just look into it for yourself. Specifically look at the Greek words and how they are used across the New Testament- the Bible harmonizes perfectly! There is one baptism and the evidence is the fruit. I met a whole family I became close with all who claim they had the “baptism of the Holy Spirit” and they would emphasize speaking in tongues, after getting to know them it was a bowl of rotten fruit unfortunately. God bless sis 🙏

@@sarahspeaksup awwww thank you for sharing don’t let one bad experience ruin it for you. There’s a difference between fruit of the spirit & gifts of the spirit. Do you operate in any spiritual gifts, I.e prophecy, word of knowledge, word of wisdom? This is what the baptism in Holy Spirit is for. God bless you too sis 🫶🏼💕

A “church” without Sacraments is like a restaurant without food. Reading & rereading the menu is an unstable & unsatisfying activity. Find your way to Holy Orthodoxy! Cover your head & cast the Devil back to Hell.
