Just as the Bible said it would

We have forgotten God, we have forgotten Jesus, we have forgotten the Bible... for what, more exactly?

There will soon be the day when all pain, suffering, death, sadness, and hate will be no more

If only we could reach more people to help them get saved

No one goes to the Father except through Christ

The thing that amazes me is how they think **we ourselves** can eradicate pain, suffering, sadness, hate, poverty... but the truth is... we're no Gods. Politicians and UN bureaucrats are no Gods. Only God's will can bless us.

Being saved doesn’t mean someone is perfect or free from mistakes and sin. But when we are saved, we no longer want to do the sin. We can slip up, or even still be addicted to the sin.
Something good I once heard was: “If I gave you a button that you could press, and it would take away all desire/addiction to sin, would you press it? If yes, then there’s a good chance that you are indeed truly saved.”

I wish I didn’t have so much anxiety that I have been unable to share the Gospel. How many people do we see each day that don’t know Christ? That will go to Hell for not having been told that Christ was the only way to the Father in Heaven?

The great commission shall be fulfilled

People think that just because you don’t believe in Christ that they would go to Hell, but that’s not it. The 10 commandments are the moral law. Each and every one of us broke that law, as none of us are perfect. And God is perfect and just, so how could He just let law breakers go free, and let imperfection into the perfect Heaven?
Everyone is on a path to Hell, we’ve lied, stolen, hated, disrespected out parents, lusted, and blasphemed.

What Jesus did was take our punishment for us. He paid the fine for our sins.

Which is why, unless you repent and trust in Jesus (like you would a parachute *< good analogy that I know*), you have to pay the debt yourself

Which is Hell

Ah, so I have to believe in Christ himself and to ask for forgiveness for my sins, right?

Yeah that's pretty much right

Yes, Jesus already paid for your sins, you just have to accept the free gift

We are saved through faith by grace, no works or anything else

Faith in Christ by the grace of God

Trying to do good works to get into Heaven would be like a criminal trying to bribe a judge by saying “Maybe I robbed that bank and shot the guard, but I gave all the money and some of my own to the needy”

But trusting in Christ would be as if you’ve run a stop sign while speeding in a school zone, you’ve got a big fine to pay, then someone comes in and pays it for you. All you have to do is accept it

Living waters? @CoolGuard

Yes

Nice

“Drink, and Thou wilt never thirst.”

I'm not the best believer, but I at least know in my head that prayer works. I am a bit depressed right now. A friend of mine that I am practically family with and I have strong feelings for just told me something that I am really torn up over. It has soured my outlook and I am starting to fall back into some bad habits to cope. Please pray for me.

I will @Zattmann - 저남자 everything will be ok.

Thank you

@Zattmann - 저남자 You’ll be in my prayers, as well. ❤️🙏

Sorry to hear you’re going through that.

Thank you @Al <3

Of course, @Zattmann - 저남자 . It’ll be okay.. there’s always calm after the storm; just hold tight to your faith and trust that that good Lord has gotta plan ☺️

I try. And hearing incouragement from others really helps. It wouldn't be so hard if I didn't have my feelings involved. I usually don't, but I did this time. This is the first time I have actually asked someone to pray for me. I usually swallow my problems, but I knew that if I let myself go this time I might really mess up.

I’m sorry to hear that.. I’m glad you’ve reached out for help, however.. If you ever need someone to talk to, I’m happy to lend an ear @Zattmann - 저남자

Or encouragement, or prayers.. whatever you may need, just give a holler and I’m happy to help ya get through this any way I can. ☺️

Thank you @Al <3. It means a lot.

Of course.. Happy to help @Zattmann - 저남자

God’s got this.. just lay it at His feet. You’re precious and loved. Don’t ever forget that.

Praying for you @Zattmann - 저남자 🙏

Thank you

this was not written by me, but i would like to share

After 3 combat tours in Iraq, I have come to the inescapable conclusion that I-sham is a cult of death and oppression. It is a fake religion, to a fake god and a false pedophilic prophet. So many of these "good muslims" would have you believing that they are so pious and holy, but would then turn right around and decapitate you as an "infidel" for not bowing to their fake god and prophet. The whole thing is a hypocritical joke. The savagery and atrocities I saw committed in the name of this fake religion are beyond description.
