I got baptized at 13 and didn’t go to church for years. I’m happy I got baptized. Now has an adult , I’m in the process of going back to church and getting closer to God. Because over the years , it’s like God has been pulling me to come back to him and better my life. You know like when there’s a voice in your head saying ‘Come with me ‘. That’s how I feel. Certain life I lived doesn’t impress me anymore. I feel happier knowing that I don’t fit in certain lifestyle anymore.

This is entirely wrong. Christ, who knew the end from the beginning, and who predestinded us before the foundation of the world, would be caught off guard by our sin to the point of casting us aside??? Why did he save us if he knew we would fail? Is not salvation a gift? Arent the gifts and callings of God without repentance?

@@AzetheReal It is though, once we believe on Jesus we are not called to repent (change your mind) on Jesus. That would be like going from belief to unbelief. If God gives us a gift, if we repented from that we would not accept the gift. It's a one time deal, if we truly wanted to change the outcome, we would never have received the gift in the first place. You can still have doubtful moments with Jesus, but Jesus knows our hearts and ultimately once faith is established, it's forever. Romans 11:29: "For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance."

@@AzetheReal John 10:28 Jesus tells us we have (those who believe in Him) eternal life. When you read John 10:28 in the greek (which you really don't have to read in greek to understand it) the Words "Never Ever" or "Never Not" is used in front of "perish" or "Shall they perish" the greek words "Ou me Apolontai" Which is a double emphatic negation before a subjunctive...which means "not possible" to "never perish" is an indefinite future action...meaning it is impossible to perish for those who have come to Christ in repentance (meaning they have heard the gospel, and changed their mind and decided to no longer walk in darkness) and faith (and believed in Christ) they are saved and have eternal life immediately (1 John 5:13). To go further, the Apostle Peter elucidates in 1 Peter that the inheritance (eternal life) is indestructible and cannot fade away which is reserved in heaven for us (the greek word used for reserved means "maintain in its original state" it is akin to a housekeeper responsible for the upkeep of a home. In 1:5 Peter also says concerning believers "Who (we the believers) by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time." This word guarded is a Greek word "Phrureoo" ("Froo-ay-yo") which is a military term for a watchman or military guard....it is actually means a military garrison within a city. I served for half my life as a member of the armed forces and understand what this means. When we were in a heightened state of alert, the entire base is locked down, nothing gets in and nothing gets out...our security posture changes, we get bigger weapons and additional ammunition, because the protection of vital assets will not be accessed by anyone who is not allowed. This is the same scenario with believers who are in Christ. God is doing the guarding, the same word is used in Philippians 4:7 with regard to the peace of God guarding our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. We cannot walk away from Christ and we cannot lose our salvation. If you walk away, then you were NEVER his. Paul also makes the statement God owns us, He purchases us with his own blood (Acts 20:28). God owns us and God keeps us.

Pray over the situation for days on a specific time, confession brings salvation, pray and confess to God, or seek for help by talking with someone you trust, talk and tell God you're tired of the situation you're in and he will help you, it will be really hard to do that specific sin again and when the thoughts of doing it come back just pray no matter where you are. Repenting is not about feeling as if you are it is about building a boundary that makes it hard for you to break it

Romans 10:9-10 ESV - because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. I've felt that fear, but remember it's not about our holiness. It's about Jesus and Him taking our sin, praying and serving, and reading your Bible will help your faith brother

Because you are believing in man made doctrine that instills fear into you, even though God tells us to fear not 365 times in the Bible. Jesus lessens our burdens and gives us rest. He doesn't expect you to be sinless if you are a sinner. Confusion is from Satan. Truth comes through God alone. Once you believe on Jesus in faith, you are sealed with the eternal promise through the witness of Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit. You can still work out your salvation with fear and trembling (not literal because you never created, therefore cannot destroy your salvation that ONLY comes from God). So how can that be changed? Your salvation is assured through faith. If you walk in the spirit with fear and trembling it's not to be afraid of God, but rather to glory in his power and being led in understanding to be called to action and not sit around idly. It's never to be paralyzed by fear, which would directly limit our rewards in heaven. If God were to strike down your foe in front of you, you could either be terrified thinking that would happen to you, or you would know that God will never forsake or appoint wrath unto you, so through fear and trembling (awe and reverence), he can motivate you to spread the gospel and win souls through action just as God wishes for none to perish, but all to find eternal life. If God were to chastise and discipline you, you will have motivation to fulfill his duty in this life. He lights a fire under us to motivate, not to torment us.

My brother in Christ, you are wrong. Jesus took 40 days off of church to be with God, and He was our example. David was a man of God, yet he slept with a woman and killed a man which took months, yet God still said he was a man after God's own heart. Solomon had hundreds of wives, partied, and still he came back to God. Jesus said it clearly, repent, believe on Me, and you will be saved. You are speaking from your own wisdom, not God's or even biblically. You had some true points as belief in one God, but man you really need to consider if you're speaking from God or your own heart. It just hurts me to hear this when its not true
@Hakeem59718 күн бұрын
Can you explain what you mean by "Jesus took 40 days off of church to be with God"? Please provide the chapter and verse. Also, you mentioned David....indeed he was a man after God's own heart, he sinned and God forgave him, but he also suffered the consequences (2 Samuel 12) and a year later he wrote Psalm 51. Regarding Solomon, you stated he "went back to God"...this is not correct. God appeared to Solomon twice to warn him against his idolatry (1 Kings 11:9) but he did not heed the warning nor did he repent and God took the United Kingdom away from him (Judah and Israel were split) Judah went to Solomon's son Rehoboam and Israel went to Solomon's servant Jeroboam (Solomon died in his sin). Israel became apostates because Jeroboam built alters to Baal all because he did not want Israel to go to Jerusalem (in Judah) to worship because he was afraid the Israelites would return to Judah. He caused Israel to sin and from here a host of apostate kings which angered god and by the time you get to 2 Kings 17, God delivers Israel into the hands of Assyria where he deports them into exile from Samaria and subsequently, Judah is taken into Babylon for 70 years. Lastly, you mention people of the old testament who were not under the dispensation of grace, David knew Christ was to come, he was a prophet (Psalm 45, Psalm 16:10, Psalm 22, Psalm 23....that is just to name a few)....but it was Christ who redeemed them and went and preached to those of the old testament (1 Peter 3:19-20)....

@Hakeem597 I'm referring to when Jesus fasted for 40 days, Matthew 4:1-11 At that time Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil. He fasted for forty days and forty nights and afterwards was hungry. The tempter approached and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become loaves of bread." So He was in isolation for over a month, which would make Him, "cooked." And while yes Solomon died in his sin, he was still loved by God and and used to write a good amount of the Bible. I'm not saying sin is okay, but there have been people in the Bible who have sinned for periods of time, but God still gave them grace. And we are no longer under the old testaments way of redemption as you stated, we now only need to believe in Jesus and make Him our Lord and we will be saved. 1 John 1:9 ESV - If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

This video is just full of cap. You can’t be UNSAVED or any less Christian. Once you give your life to Christ, He isn’t just gonna kick you to the side because you sin or make a mistake or don’t go to church EVERY Sunday. If you have Christ in your heart and keep trying and trying to better yourself instead of continuing that sin or indulge in it, that’s all he cares about. If you SEEK HIM, that’s all that matters. If you claim He is the Lord and is the Savior of your life, that’s all that matters. This video is a big example as to why so many people turn from away from even CONSIDERING a relationship with Christ. God bless yall. Read your bibles and let that tell you about God. Stop listening to videos like this spreading false information/ self interpretations of God and who He is and how He works.

Hey man I love your videos and I see what you’re getting at. However, I do disagree with what you’re saying in some ways. 1st I’m not here to hate, I’m also a young person trying to follow God and I just recently got a revelation that God gave to me and it freed me so much. The revelation was that the gift of salvation is not something we can earn and not something we can lose, why? Because it’s a GIFT! So just in the same way God tells us that we can’t do anything to good to deserve this gift, we also can’t do anything to bad to lose it. Just because we don’t go to church or read our Bible doesn’t disqualify us from heaven. See I use to believe the same thing you did and it only brought me grief and shame when I didn’t do the right thing. But God showed me that by me thinking I can do something bad enough to lose the gift of salvation I also think I can do something good enough to earn it. So with this conclusion I came to the issue of- should I just sin with no regard because I have eternal salvation ? (Paul talks about this in Romans 6)- No! because we are dead to sin through Jesus Christ, and by us living out our lives in accordance to God we show that we are truly saved. So the actions we do only allow us to grow closer to God and show that we were saved because the Holy Spirit is working within us. I hope this made since lol🙂↕️ but I would recommend going to read Romans 5 &6. Hope this didn’t come off as rude just wanted to help out because I use to be against this type of thinking to, until recently 🙏🏾

My personal testimony to you brother. I was deep into videogames from I was little. Now I am an adult and hadn't played them in a while. I downloaded some back because the holiday had come. While playing I noticed that numerous hours would pass by each day and that's all I'd be doing. It felt like I was seriously wasting my time, especially since I knew that all the hard work to get in-game items would be forgotten soon and wouldn't have mattered in the future. Long story short, I asked God for guidance and for Him to let me know if I should delete the game. So I went on KZbin and the very first recommended video's thumbnail said, "God Says Delete". I laughed to myself. The message was extremely clear to me so I deleted not one, but all my games. God is good and God answers prayers.

I got into video games back in the late 1980's starting with the NES and Metroid and the first Super Mario Brothers. When I got into my 20's got into JRPG's which are unapologetically Gnostic and Pagan in every way... I still have yet to find one that isn't in some capacity which really sucks because I really like story lined games like that. I remember when I first became a Christian I was naïve as could be and I did man... I asked straight out if there were games I was playing The Lord didn't want me to play.... Yep. Final Fantasy which used to be my all time fav.... NOPE. Many of the games I was into had those Pagan elements in them an dit;s like...nope. Heck even the first Paper Mario unfortunately had a fortune teller reading from a crystal ball and I'm like..... Whhhhyyyyyyy? Man.... but dude Sonic, Mario (for the most part), Kirby, arcade games like Galaga and Space Invaders and Tempest and onward. Nothing wrong, man. By now as a little more seasoned over time I just... know now what the Lord wants me on and what he doesn't. I listen to him, dude. These are things I want to KNOW. There's nothing wrong with games man especially in my case, however if one h=is playing Dungeons and Dragons or any of that Pagan crap be well advised you need to steer clear from that garbage like the wind. Stay away from Mortal Kombat, Dead Space, God of War, Assassins' Creed, and so on. After a while you just begin to know what to point out, and believe it or not there's even Christian games in the world like Gate Zero, The Pilgrim's Progress, and many older Christian games to get into as well. It's all about what you're playing man. The eye is the lamp of the body. If the eye is bad the whole body is bad. Video games themselves aren't the problem. As usual the problem is the person and their addictive personality (if they have one) and their CHOICE in the games they play. It's always about self control, and.. for SOME... if they can't control themselves then cut it off. That incudes friends, family, movies, music, books, video games, and the like. If something is causing one to sin then cut it off no matter the "connection" who have with the person or object you're messing with that you shouldn't be. Remember one person's hang up due to THEIR lack of self control isn't always another's, bud.
