Temptation is only tempting if you want what's being offered. Stop wanting; the temptations will disappear. "The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want." This is the tenth commandment.
I replaced alcohol, parties and bad company with books and church…one book I recommend everyone to read in 2025 is keezano’s Your Life Your Game…it beautifully shows how embracing faith and building meaningful relationships can lead to spiritual growth and success in both your personal and professional life. This book truly changed my life, amen🙏🏾
I pray for those who need you Lord! For those who are blinded by this world and have rejected you! Lord help people see you are love and peace and that you can satisfy us and that nothing is worth giving our soul mind and body to if it's not you. Help these people see that you love them too much and that you can help them with all there problem big and small. you are a good God lord and I praise you with all my being!!!! Jeremiah 29:11 God has already handled what you're working about
Whoaa. This is amazing. Two of my friends are atheists. I was trying to bring them back to God especially considering the fact that one of them is a Christian. I was trying to answer their questions of faith. But I couldn't really answer any. This was a very sharp question that came up. I was looking for an answer and here it is today in front of me. Thankyou Jesus ❤
God allows it because he gives Freewill to choose between Good or Evil 😈 Right or wrong. He's not about control your not a Robot. He could remove you but he gives a chance of Repenting learning by your ways he's gives you many chances. To come to him and when you reach your lowest and you can't do it anymore. THAT is when God will save you if seek him because he died 💔 to save you. And doesn't want anyone to perish your are lost sheep that has lost their way and he gives you hope .And many have turned there lifes around when there is no one Else. He is the saviour and will pick you and show you are valued and much loved. And show you real purpose he restores the broken heart 💔 and fixes them .Faith is powerful knowing nothing is impossible with God. So many many Testimonials of people on the brink of hopeless death. And he saved them all .❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Me personally I think that God is as the gospel is preached it's just the dead is a reference to thise who are not alive through Jesus Christ, but God doesn't want anyone to go to hell. In fact it's the opposite, the reason why Evil exists at all is because of satan and why we' re susceptible to it is because of our sin from our fall when we ate of the fruit of knowledge of good and evil. Those that are dead to their sin are deliberately refusing to go to God therefore they do not love God, nor jesus and they don't have the holy Spirit in them and they cannot properly love and be kind to our brothers and sisters in christ and/ or strangers. (Neighbors) Don't lose heart God is good, just pray that our heavenly Father helps you feel more of His loving/ peaceful presance and in His perfect timing I'm sure He'll be there for you. But God bless and I pray that you have strengthened relationship with Jesus and God. Amen ❤
Resisting lust everyday, one step more, to avoid lusting in the heart as Jesus said. I tried looking at the pupils of a woman and it worked, seems like avoiding gazing at a woman's facial features and body works perfectly fine, plus, the eyes are the windows to the soul, so it's a plus. One thing i find difficult is staying objective as i talk to a woman, letting my heart ponder towards the sweetness of their voices, it's not what i want, must keep a clear and objective mind to achieve the victory and final victory indeed, over lust.
Yes, what is known as free will, in Christianity, is also called karma, your choice, that you make, will determine your actions in later life, or even in a future life, based on your actions, suffers comes, because your past choice, caused that bad reaction, it wasn't just a co-incidence.
Is the soul really immortal??!!??? Doesn't the Bible say that the dead are not aware of anything??? - Ecclesiastes 9:5... If they are non-existent, why a resurrection of the bad??!?? To force them to suffer eternally??!?? What is the justice or balance in such a sentence??!?! Then..?!? There is no non-existence, pure and simple for those who did not ask to be born ?!!?? What is the justice in a torment for all ETERNITY!!! with literal fire or simply without the presence of God...for a being that doesn't live more than 100 years...?!?!!??? What mercy is this?!?! What God is this that does not simply allow death, destruction, the eternal non-existence of those who did not accept Him in this life?!?? This is precisely the opposite of Christian values! This is paying for evil with an ETERNALLY worse evil! Who serves a God like that?? For love....??!!?? Or fear...??!!??? Definitely, either God does not exist or 1 John 4:8 is FALSE!!! .... Something must be very wrong with everything that has been preached !!! 🥺... 🤔...🤨...🧐...
The living are conscious that there is a future before them: but the dead are unconscious; they earn nothing, receive nothing, even the memory of them soon disappears; they are no longer excited by the passions which belong to people in this life; their share in its activity has ceased. Solomon here describes what he sees, not what he believes; there is no reference here to the fact or the mode of the existence of the soul in another world, which are matters of faith. The last clause of Ecc 9:6 indicates that the writer confines his observations on the dead to their portion in, or relation to, this world.
Revelation 20:10 KJV - "Tormented day and night for ever and ever" in lake of fire.* * Revelation 14:11 KJV - "No rest day nor night" for those worshiping beast, tormented in hell.
God is absolutely just. In laymans language, imagine a person Mr.X has murdered someone. are you saying that he should just live like nothing has happened. but rather he be brought to the court, have a prosecution and then be jailed in prison. So if God is just, ofcourse without a doubt he would let the wicked suffer for the sins they have committed. it could even be a lie, lust or anything. you and i would have to pay a price for it. But thats where the twist comes, God instead came as a man and took the punishment that was to be on us sinners and took it upon himself. so we instead of having to go through that suffering, have been made free by That Sacrifice on the Cross. You may think whats the point, why would a person come and want to do that? its because of Gods Love. He loves you and i so much that he was willing to suffer. Now why do people go to hell. Simple. where God reigns there is peace and joy. Where God keeps himself away from there is sorrow, suffering. what is the thing that seperates us from God? Sin. God is righteouss. it all comes down to this. he has given you the free will to choose what you want. If you want to stay with him, we go to heaven. but if you dont want to go to him and enjoy worldly pleasures which is brought by the devil, sure go ahead. if you want to live away from God, he wont force you and like i mentioned earlier, a life far from God is a life with chaos and suffering. So God is just he's letting you choose the path you want. he's also said, the benifits you get for following him and the suffering you will have for following the world. the free will and choice is yours. I hope this has helped you out, even if its a bit.
@@reubsss So, if this is your understanding and in an absolutely literal way in the case of the "second death"... my comment not only stands but also makes perfect sense. Such a sentence simply annuls free will! The conclusion is: does such God deserve to be worshiped ?!??
@@annapaulal.h.1393 the first reply was to ecc 9:5, that solomon was referring to it in a physical sense and the second was to show you that spritual the suffering in hell is forever. i had sent one more paragraph, but its just gone. classic youtube. If i understand it right, i take it that you believe that, "if God is real, why couldn't he just make all those who have sinned non existent." Why God created you and me, simply put, I do not know. i cannot fathom Gods thoughts, its not something simple. But what i do know is, God did not create a being and decide that this person is someone whom ive made to sin and this person will go to hell. But he made us giving us the "free will" to choose what we want. he wants a fair and free relationship with him. i can take the bible and read it, or i could use it as toilet paper as people have in the past. If God created everyone that'll love him, would that be love? Think of it like this, im a guy, and if i have a robot as my wife who will do everything as ive programmed her to do or command. I tell her to give me a hug, she gives me a hug. but do you think theres love in that? do you think that the robot following everything its designed to follow is love? wouldn't it be better to have a wife who hugged you willingly because she loves you and refused to hug you if she was mad about something? similarly God has given us a free will where you can choose him, or not choose him. a place without God is a placed filled with Chaos, suffering,pain . Gods righteous character seperates him from sinners and there is a price for every sin. Simply put, you have a free will by which God has given you the freedom to choose if you want to be with God and enjoy Gods presence and enjoy your rewards in heaven go ahead. But, if you want to enjoy the ways of the world (which is sinful) and want to choose to stay away from God, he's given you that freedom, but he has warned you, while that path though might seem enjoyable, it leads to destruction. but he isnt forcing you, he isn't blackmailing you. you want to stay away from God where there is chaos, go ahead you're free to choose what you want. though God loves you and wants you to come to him, that he gave himself on the cross to take up your and my sin so we can come in the presence of God. ultimately its your own decision. i pray this helps a bit. i do not want to have an argument, but a polite discussion if you dont mind and i hope i havent said anything to intimidate you.
You say he does not force us to live with him, and yet choosing to not live with him will end up in going to hell, so he's like choose me or you will go to hell...that's pretty forced and evil if you ask me...
3:28 explains it best. Similar to rejecting the support of a family member or parent, a person who rejects God is choosing to separate themselves from what he offers them and face the darkness by themselves. Your parents can support you, sure, and if they love you and want what's best for you, they'll be there when you turn to them and call for them. However, when you decide to cut them off completely, you're choosing to refuse whatever help they have to offer, and deciding that you alone can face the brunt of what the world has to offer and whatever anguish that comes with it. It's an active decision that you made to cut them off and face the consequences without help, and it'd be strange to turn around to your parents and blame them because at the end of the day, you made the decision to refuse that support your parents offered. They're not going to force their will upon you, and neither will the Lord. He gave us free will because without it, the choice to genuinely love isn't possible, and with that free will, we can choose to seek his help, or to cut ourselves off and separate ourselves from God, which is what hell really is. Hell, despite modern depictions, is separation. It is the darkness that sits outside of God's light and the creations therein, and if you choose to separate yourself from God, then you're choosing to cut off the proverbial rope he made for you and float off into that void. He's not going to force you to come back, but scripture isn't going to sugarcoat it either on what lies within it. Think of it like this: If someone you know is doing something that you're well aware is bad for them, but they refuse any and all help to get out of that situation, would you force them to do what you think is best? Sure, it's the right thing on paper , but you're taking away their autonomy and trust to do it. I hope this helps explain it a little better!
It’s not forced because, in the end, you are given a choice. Since God exists, there are logically only two options: either you will be with Him or you won’t. If you want to be with Him, you will seek Him out. If you don’t, He will respect your decision and will not force you against your will. That is not evil in any way. Hell is simply separation from God-nothing more. I understand your perspective because I once thought the same way, but after studying and having it explained in detail, my view changed.
Heyy family, please pray for my exams ❤❤
