- At some point, everyone struggles with doubt. But for every child of God, the Holy Spirit will sustain your faith when you need him most.

I sometimes wonder what will happen on my deathbed, if my doubts will amplify, or if I’ll have completely overcome them… but my Jesus will preserve me and empower me through whatever comes my way. His spirit gives and will give me courage
I think about that exact scenario very often… I wonder if my faith will be at an all time high or all time low due to fear of what is next. I must continue to pray on this because I don’t think living a life of fear reflects Jesus or glorifies Him at all
I wasn't ever afraid of death until I got into my late 60s. The closer I get to it, the more trials I face. Just two months ago my daughter was killed. I have never suffered so much in my entire life.

@@AngelinaX23 I am so sorry to hear that! I will pray for you God is with you!
@@tkemedia7061 Thank you! I appreciate prayers so much. God bless you! 🧡
Thankful he answered this honestly. Hate the doubts. But if struggling, look out the window.. Gods order is in everything. The trees, the bees and plants.
Some encouragement from the book, 'Can we trust the Gospels?' "They (Christians) believe that we live in a universe that shows signs of being made, and that the converging lines of evidence for the truth of Christianity include arguments from the nature of the message, the moral realism of the biblical story, the fulfillment of prophecy, the coherence of the Bible, the need for a source of moral absolutes, the seeming pruposefulness of life and nature, their own experience and more." I would add to this the pattern of miracles in the Bible, and just looking at what God achieved for us on the cross and in the evidence for Jesus' resurrection. You can't make this stuff up! Hope this blesses and helps you.
I’ve spent many, many hours studying Christian apologetics, and I want to assure you that there is absolutely no lack of evidence for God’s existence; there is only evidence FOR His existence. He is real, and if you would like to hear some of my favorite pieces of evidence then I am more than happy to share
@@JacksTheater hey could you send me that evidence?

I was involved in dark spirits and one man crazy like-looking and sounded crazy came to me and said "God will show you His power" and i thought the guy was crazy and one day i was at work and i look out the window and i saw i perfectly aligned plant leaves it had mathematics all over it . And i said God is powerful and then few days later i remember exactly what the guy the man i met and and said "God will show your His power" . You are right His presence is all over nature
Father God, please help me to close the chapter wirh my enemies once and for all. In accordance with this word and philippians 4:13, 2 corinthians 6:14-18 I bind to hell one doubting one's capacities when in Christ in my life, the lives of my family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, acquitances, opponents and the body of Christ while binding to hell every lack of freedom from doubting one's capacities one in Christ, binding to hell every unequal yoke and common share with those who doubt one's capacities when not in Christ while lacking freedom from doubting one's capacities, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah! ❤

Me.. that's why I am here for.. ofcourse I do, alot..
how are you doing now?
Thank you John.

Question I'm getting closer to Jesus Christ and I've been filling this energetic feeling alot flowing through my body is that the Holy Spirit?
Then I hear in my head not everyone who calls me Lord Lord will enter the kingdom. But those who do the will of my Father. And one of those wills are our sanctification that we abstain from immorality and I gotta tell you that’s one sin I struggle hard with and I’m sick of myself. You know I wouldn’t blame God for throwing me in to hell bc that’s exactly where I belong.
The fact that you care about offending and sinning against God is a good sign the Holy Spirit is working with you.
You have to be very simple and practical about your self.Being human and you're thinking being human.Won't you've accepted and realized that reality?You have made one big huge massive quantum leap And at that point you can basically step right over all of your doubts.Negativity, naughty thoughts that are harmful etc etc You really have to know who you are and you really have to accept it. And you really have to be practical about. It's a simple as that you don't walk with those thoughts. You don't entertain those thoughts. You don't talk back to those thoughts. You just step right over that. As the Bible says, we have been given the power. Over scorpions and serpents that's how you do it
No who you are as a human and know who you are in christ
I am deeply struggling
how are you doing now?
Is doubt a sin for believers or natural?
Sometimes i think of when Jesus took upon the sins of the world he said my God why have you forsaken me. Sort of indicating that sin will make you question God more, and not have faith.
@@thorhansen1333 Sin, although against the word of God, can also show how much you need Jesus. God encourages us to wrestle with doubts.
As I told the other guy, doubt is something God wants us to wrestle with. Besides, faith without doubt is not faith at all. We are not perfect. Humans are sinners no matter what point you view it. That's why doubt exists, and that's also why the need for God exists, too. I myself am experiencing a trial of doubt right now, but God also says very clearly that doubt and trials produce perseverance. He actually tells us in the same context to view these times as joy. We need to be patient and let him work in us.
On top of that, this actually shows God's love for us. The Bible also states that he disciplines his children. Think of your doubts as discipline. Without it, if someone challenges you, you'd stumble. But since He gives us these trials of doubt (discipline), it actually strengthens us!
@thorhansen1333 no, Jesus was without sin, he was quoting a psalm he had just fufilled! He was truly perfect, fully God, fully man 🙂
Has anyone ever seen the effects of, or measured the "holy spirit". If you can't measure it, or see it's effects, how do you know that it exists?
If it is your own thoughts, you cannot prove it, however real it seems.
My only hope is Christ. Looks like I’m gonna doubt my whole life. I find it hard to believe the Lord would save someone like me and the way I’ve lived in the past heck even now and the sins I’ve committed in his sight. But I trust in him to pull me out of this sinful body and bring me in heaven by his side bc ‘noone comes to the Father except thru me’. But when that day comes and I stand before his white throne of judgement and I was not truly saved then I will have no just complaint against him. My answer would be I am guilty. My sentence to hell is justified.
Have you studied the reason y u Believe
All the Evidence and Everything about Christ and how it’s real
Are u a Christian
Repent and Believe In Christ Alone. We all broke the 10 commandments and deserve Hell but Christ came and died on the cross and rose 3 days later defeating satan,death. Repent and Believe in Christ Alone to be saved. Don’t believe In yourself or good works or anything else except Christ and what he did
Alone
