      I think this video ties in well with another video of yours which led me to a question. If we truly believe the doctrine of once saved always saved, what difference does it make if you doubt your faith? What difference does it make if you lose your faith? Taking the doctrine to it's logical conclusion, it will make no difference in our salvation, only in our daily lives. Why should any Christian, Protestant or Catholic, believe that this idea is not harmful to the spiritual walk?
      I'm sure you see the dilemma. If a believer becomes an atheist, his salvation is still gauranteed and thus the scriptures are contradicted for "whosoever believes (present tense) in him shall have eternal life".
      I bring this up because I believe it to have a negative effect on the body of Christ. At the very least, it creates the logically consistent impression that there are no eternal consequences for denying Christ.
      33 but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven.
      Matthew 10:33

    When I didn't have a relationship with Jesus I never doubted, but when I devoted my life to Jesus I started having this doubt in my head making me question his existence. I hate it, it is like I am battling with my heart which believes and my mind which is making me doubt, I don't want to doubt anymore, I want to be on fire for my savior like I once was.

Besides praying and trusting God to protect you , you might want to look into apologetics where you can learn evidence of God's existence besides human experience. It can really strenghten your belief in God's existence and make it easier to ignore that thoughts. Those thoughts are irrational thoughts, probably from the Devil.

    I recently had a long period of doubt and it drove me away from Christ. I wanted answers and I wanted my sinfulness to just disappear like magic, but I wasn't receiving what I wanted. It sent me into depression, anxiety, anger, bitterness, etc... I was miserable most of the time and medicated my misery with sin. On Saturday, I met with someone from my church (I almost never spend time with people except for family) and he talked with me for 4 hours about a lot of my problems and my lack of faith. He connected with me in a way that I rarely experience and was so gentle and gracious, yet firm with his answers. I didn't get all my questions answered, but I am not doubting nearly as much and I feel happier than I have felt in months. I feel hopeful about the future and I understand God's love for me more. I know that the feeling won't last forever, but I am encouraged in my faith and know that I am loved no matter what.

      David William A. I can relate to what you are saying but you know, when I'm angry with God because of many questions and doubts in my mind, His stubborn love sees me through. I began to doubt Him before after finishing reading the Bible and that was 10 years ago. It came to my mind that God is unfair during the OT times and I began questioning Him everyday but it seems He don't care so I got even more angrier. Many things He did in my life that made me understand Him and love Him again. He permitted many unpleasant things in my life to come and I was amazed how powerful He opened my spiritual eyes using that situation. Now, I won't question His Sovereignty anymore, I just want to serve and worship Him!!!

I moved and fell back into a lot of that depression, anxiety, bitterness, and sin for quite a while until recently. I started opening up to people and they helped me a lot. My faith is renewed again after a long period of darkness. I hope that I never fall into that mindset again. I think that the difference now is that I have friends I can talk to and it keeps me going. I also have been reading my bible and praying much more. I spend less time on entertainment, although I still enjoy some of it. The problem for me, I think, is that I isolated and didn't reach out to people often. Now I do and I trust in God more. My depression and anxiety is almost gone, at least for now. I sin less often, although I still sin. My anger and bitterness is almost gone as well. I have friends for the first time in a while, although they're mostly online. Thanks to God for bringing me out of that rut! I hope I never go back to that.

Therefore if He created a world WITHOUT sin. Jesus is part of the Holy Trinity because while He was on earth, He was fully man and fully God and the only perfect, blameless sacrifice for our sins. We can’t atone for our own sins because we’re imperfect sinners. Jesus had to step in for us. The Holy Spirit’s purpose is to enter those who put their faith and trust in Jesus and his death on the cross and those who repent of their sins and ask God for forgiveness. I’ve had to use this logic too to keep my faith during all of this going on in the world.

    Logic helps me keep my faith.
    In all the religions that exist today only one savior from heaven died for the sins of the entire world and that savior is Jesus Christ.
    There is no other religion other than Christianity that preaches that their savior from heaven died for the sins of the entire world.
    That isolates Christianity from all the other religions in the world proving that it came from God and NOT man because God isn't going to allow another religion to have a savior from heaven to die for the sins of the world because Jesus is the only one to have done such a thing for us.

      I have the same doubt every once in a while but that’s just spiritual warfare. I can’t vouch for other religions and if they feel any warfare, but I have never seen such a majority of people struggle with the same types of spiritual warfare as Christianity. And so many things have been talked about in the Bible that have come to be true, some being Christianity will be a hated religion and we will be spiritually attacked. I just keep praying that God opens my eyes and delivers me from the doubt.

      Everytime I have thoughts that Christianity isn’t the true religion, I feel the devil is putting that in our minds to keep us away from Jesus and go even more astray. Don’t feed into the lies the devil has to say, the reason we struggle so hard in our Faith is because this IS the true religion, God and real and the devil is busy. God bless you ❤

    • @Cognac174
      @Cognac174 Год назад

      also another thing that helps me in this case is the fact that ALL the other religions consider Jesus in one way or another, and you can look this up by yourself; Buddhist acknowledge Jesus, muslims acknowledge Jesus too, Hindus too, New Age belief too…they all have something to say about Jesus, yet Jesus never even consider any other religion and only talked about Him being the Way, the Truth, The Life.

    I didn't even need to watch the video complete, the comments revived my faith. I doubted if christainity was the right religion because of the Muslim and Christian debates I have been seeing. And all the Muslims in the comment will be praying to Allah to sensitize christains and there will be bringing up errors and inconsistencies in the Bible; the different Bible translations etc. Even seeing christains converting to Muslims made things worse. Although, Muslims are also converting to christains.
    But I am going to pray about it, and I know God will see me through in this journey. It's just the devil trying to drag me away. But I am standing firm in my faith. Amen!

I have been getting closer to God & praying to Him for patience & understanding, thank you so much for making this video🥲

      This is what the enemy does he tries to put doubt or unbelief in our minds. But daughter of God you will get through that. God will use this for your good. Remember Thomas in the Bible who doubted the resurrection of Jesus? Remember John the Baptist who doubted who Jesus was? Remember how Satan wanted to sift peter as wheat? To shake or destroy Peter’s faith in Jesus/God But Jesus prayed “I have prayed that your faith may not fail” Jesus has plans for you and will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. He will provide away of escape.

I think because GOD gave me everything I prayed for. I have gone in a down fall for 16 years now. So now I believe God will change things for the best but doubt is always sneaking in my mind. I thing you should post more audios of your preaching. I have seen only one about faith. I need a strong faith like Abraham and many Christians do. Thank you for enlightening us.

Whether or not He is doing something or if it's just coincidence..I have a real problem with the "or maybe it's just a coincidence" train of thought.

    I became born again and reading my Bible nonstop. I would even call off work just to dedicate the day to God and nonstop scripture reading...and then....doubt. I had thoughts "is Jesus really the Messiah?"
    "Did Jesus really and truly die for my sins?"
    "Is Jesus really the Son of God?"
    "Will eternal life be worth it?"
    I felt so ashamed to ask these questions since these questions were so crucial to my salvation, but I believe the Holy Spirit is giving me reassurance. I still struggle with some doubt but I just think of what God HAS done for me instead of what God HASN'T done and it usually helps.
