I'm certain that I am saved, because my life has never been the same since I first met Jesus as Lord and Saviour, that day something inside me changed forever, like I became someone new. I guess you could say I am a work in progress and I intend to let God finish what he started.

Hi there...you need to adjust the spelling in your article....you wrote, 'If you tell people their an animal...' and it should be 'they're an animal'. Best regards Botz thanks but i cant :/

I've had my ePetition on the direct gov website published arguing that creationism should be taught in schools as well as evolution. If your from the UK, please sign it? If we get 100,000 signatures it might be debated in parliament. http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/14634

I've recently learned (very recently) that in order to successfully lead a life pleasing to God is to bring Glory to him in everything we do. I've read 1 Corinthians 10:31 loads of times but never really understood it until earlier today. Which brings me to my main question. I am a huge Doctor Who fan, I've got posters, registered on a fansite forum, got about 10 doctor who dvds, never miss an episode when its on. But I'm wondering, by watching doctor who I dont think I'm glorifying God in anyway so does that mean I should stop watching it and get rid of my dvds, posters, etc. thanks.

I give in to temptation more than I resist it. When I try to live the holy, self-denying life that Jesus showed us It always comes crashing down like a ton of bricks when I'm hanging around with a non christian. I believe, but I don't think I have any faith whatsoever. I pray, but I'm impatient. I dont practice what I preach. I use bad language and I watch things I know I shouldn't be watching (you know what I mean). -- In the past 4 years I dont think I've ever gone more than two weeks trying my absolute best to live like God wants me to. I just don't know what to do. Half of me wants to just accept that I'm going to hell and theres no point trying. I don't like going to church because: A) I can't sing and get embarrased trying to. B) I'd rather be at home all day playing on my computer than go out and talk to real people. C) I'm lazy and often stay up all night saturday. But there is some hope. No matter where I go or what I do, I always know that I need Jesus more than a whale needs water. Its like even though I take pleasure in sinning, somewhere deep inside is God telling me to get my act together. Whats worse is, chances are someone will post a reply here that will really help me, I'll pray, think im a christian and tommorow I'll have forgotten. I want to follow Jesus more than anything, but I'm afraid I'll backslide again.

I've been told that God is a spirit, but what i'm wondering about is when Jesus ascended into heaven he was in human form. That must mean that heaven is a physical place where you can walk around, Jesus also spoke of mantions and a table.

When talking to nonbelievers, only speak the word from the Bible and don't add to it or take away from it. Because when you stray away from the true word, you are opening yourself up to a whole new can of worms. (just my opinion) its so weird that you said that, last night i was tossing & turning in bed took me ages to get to sleep but then it hit me, i dont quote the bible often and i dont pray much anymore no wonder im getting it wrong. - Because im trying to do it myself, rather than relay God's message by his holy spirit.

Thanks, you guys are right. I guess i was just trying to win, relying on my own wisdom (or lack of it as it appears to be). Thanks for making me see how foolish i've been.

I try and I try but no one ever listens, there all stubborn fools. I've noticed the people who actually care about knowing the truth lessen and those who just mock rising.. Is it time to give up and prepare for the end? Coz im ready for giving up.

Romans 1:23 KJV - "and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles." http://goldendome.org/EvolutionOfMan/EvolutionOfManColor.jpg Doubt you'll find a christian with a poster of that picture on his bedroom wall. Doubt you'll find an atheist with a picture of Jesus on his bedroom wall. Need I go on?

I once was lost an now am found. Then i got lost again and found again. I kept getting lost and now I AM FOUND. I know where i am, who i am and where i want to be. I can feel him right now, hes in my heart and in my soul. Hes holding my hand and wiping the tears from my eyes. I fell down and he didn't help me get back up, HE PICKED ME UP and put me on my feet. All glory to God forever and ever. Amen. Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior.

I was on this website in this chatroom and i dont really know how to talk with people i dont know, it went horribly wrong. I dont know how i got onto this but i ended up saying i was gunna buy a gun and kill people, i'd never do it i dont know why i said it. This guy who said he was ex-navy told me hes reportin it, this is in america but im in england but still they have people for doin this thing over seas dont they. Anyway he told me he was on the phone to the FBI and its been done, he was on about gettin the webmaster of the site involved to get the information lined up (i've deleted my account). so i told him i'd kill myself and he said hes already done it and its too late and hes sorry. The thing is, if this comes over here and i get into trouble i can kiss college goodbye and that'll be the end of me. college was the one thing i was lookin forward to. So if i end up locked up with no hope and no future but without the guts to kill myself i will really have screwed myself over. The worse thing of all is i've backslidden again to pornography and masturbation. everything is falling apart. i dont know what to do.

That video just about summed up my relationship with Jesus, or lack thereof.

yeh, im listening to one of his videos on youtube now called "Islam is NOT a religion of peace", its very interesting.

kk thanks OneLight

I was watching a debate on Islam vs Christianity last night with a former christian convert to islam and a former muslim convert to christianity. And i've heard alot of things on the internet and youtube and stuff about the antichrist coming from islam and stuff but i dont know whats true and whats not. But this christian-covert to islam and the muslim-convert to christianity were talkin about the need for forgiveness of sins and the muslim said "Theres no need to be forgiven of sins, allah can forgive without the shedding of blood". something along those lines and it shocked me, it really did all i heard was satan goin "This one is mine." Also, is it ok for a christian to listen to muslim music, because some of the most beautiful peaceful songs i've heard are nasheeds (or muslim songs without instrumental music).

Thanks alot everyone I know that God has forgiven me now, and thats all i need. Thanks Lord :D Thanks everyone

I'm 19 years old. I often think about killing myself, i think of alot of different ways i could do it. But i'll never do it. I just wont. My brother is 12 and my sister is about 8 years old, i dont think there old enough to understand yet, i had planned on telling them what i did when they were 18 or older.

I'm not going to kill myself, im not that strong. Maybe God will give me another opportuanity to walk with him one day when this is out of my life, i hope so. Maybe if i went to a councillor and told them what i did, or maybe telling the police what i did and having man's justice punish me will relieve the guilt.

Thanks for your replies. I wish i had the strength to take my own life. But i don't. I feel like i'm trapped in a cage thats about to fall into the ocean. I want to write a letter to my dad telling him what i did then take off and never come back.

thanks for replying. It's not as if i still do what i did. But when i draw close to God that voice that tells me to tell my dad, what if its God. Because i just cant do it, i cant face my dad and tell him what i did. I know what will happen.

This is the most honest post i've ever made here at worthy. This comes straight from the heart, im putting all the cards on the table if you will. This isn't the first time i've made a post like this here and the wonderful community here is probably tired of me moaning and whining so i'll make this my last post like this. When i was 14-15 i sexually abused my half-brother and half-sister, my brother was about 8 at the time and my sister was about 3 or 4. This is holding me back from a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Everytime i try and draw close to God i feel that i can do anything, that God is with me and i will do anything for him. Then that voice comes and says to me: 'if you love god, if you truly have faith in him, tell your dad what you did.'. After this i end up smoking weed again or looking up porn again then i fall away. I must have backslidden 100+ times since i first tried becoming christian 3 years ago. And i thought, i've tried so many times and failed so many times. Maybe there are 1 or 2 people who cannot be saved. What if i'm one of those. I figured that if i can't get it right with God, if i'm doomed to repeat the pattern of 1) repent, 2) draw close to god and obey him, 3) feel guilty and scared because i've what i've done and 4) fall away, then i must not have done step 1 right which defeats the whole thing and means i've never truly been saved. I'm not depressed, though it is a little depressing thinking that i'm destined for hell and eternal seperation from God. I'm just looking for a way out, a way to connect with God. I know if i tell my dad what i have done, he'll kick the crap out of me, drag me down to the police station, i'll end up getting stabbed in prison because thats what happens to pedophiles then dying in my sin, all alone with no hope. I've always been weak of faith because i don't go to church or fellowship with other christians. I try and keep to myself as much as possible. For example, i used to spend my whole summer breaks from school inside on the computer. When people i went to school with are out working, going to college/university, going away to different countries on holiday or just living their lives like normal people do, i'm inside, playing games on the computer. I find it difficult to talk to people i don't know and i can't sing so i can't worship god. What i did to my brother and sister is preventing me from having a relationship with my dad and my mum lives in australia who to be honest cares for herself only (or maybe its me, i only care for myself and am just being selfish, i dont know). I just don't know. I have a girlfriend, i tell her i love her, i feel nothing. I have 3 friends, 1 i dont see much of, another i'm mean to and take the mickey out of his situation all the time, and the other winds me up and makes me feel angry, so angry. I feel nothing apart from confusion. I've prayed countless times to God to change my heart, to allow me to love and feel God's love. Nothing has happened. So i've come to the conclusion that by promising God i will repent and never doing it, i've actually managed to damn myself for all time, God may love me but i think hes had enough. Ok im done, i think thats all of it.

I dont know what to say anymore. I'm so confused as to what to believe. I know that i'm really really weak and i could be, well, i am deceived. One further question. Why am i so weak and how can i become stronger in the Lord? I don't know what made me believe the mormons, something just did, i think it was the fact that they believed in the bible in addition to the book of mormon and they prayed in Jesus Christ name. They also told me that the church became corrupted over time and needed to be restored. Another thing i've figured out is that all of God's prophets, his true prophets came from the middle east, why would one appear in america. Thank you all for replying, really, i think im starting to see what i was trying to believe now.

We're actually commanded to outcast heretics. If they can't be convinced by one, try two. Not two, try three. If not three, the entire congregation. If still not then- there's not much we can do. We tried our best to tell you the truth. It is on your own shoulders to whether or not you harden your heart or not, brother. I'm sorry to hear that, i love you all and have enjoyed meeting all the people i've had the pleasure to talking with on here. I'll leave in a day, i just see to a PM conversation im having with an administrator through to the end.
