and there's no need for works, it's by faith apart from works (st. paul)

Does it matter if you’re good or bad?

Ephesians 3:28 "Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law."

it doesn't make you lose your salvation

but God will punish you in this world if you seriously sin

Hebrews 12:8 "But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons."

So kind of like karma

it's divine judgement

with a specific purpose

of edifying you

so do you understand that salvation is by faith alone?

so you believe god will save you from all ailments?

spiritual yes

There’s a lot of evil people who get away with a lot

not physical until the Resurrection

yes, but you will only be chastised if you are saved

did you see that versE?

And if they believe in Jesus they’re good?

"But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons."

so if someone is sinning and not being punished, they aren't saved

well see I am very curious as to what one should do about their mental suffering

you mean like anxiety?

anxiety, depression, schizophrenia

Seek medical attention?

well yes seek medical help but don't take drugs without being wary

antidepressants can really mess you up

yeah

no, I'm fully aware of that

There’s therapy too

I know people though who need their antidepressants to function

I recommend asking Christ for salvation so you'll be resurrected healthy, and pray about it - I will pray for you too

but yeah

I have anxiety too

and depression

not schizot ho

heh... I'm more buddhist than anything, but thank you

I appreciate it

K I gotta go to class I may continue afterwards though

alright

like... I don't personally have schizophrenia but I know someone who does

and I feel like for them, medication is necessary
