Hi I'm 21 years old. I first asked Jesus into my heart and asked for forgiveness when I was 5 years old, iv repeated this numerous times during my life usually after a challenging sermon or after committing a great sin. My faith has never been really strong but I'd always pray God would make it stronger and that he'd make me a better Christian which was/is my desire. But two years ago after lots of doubts about my faith and God one night while led in bed I came to the conclusion that God didn't exist, the bible was made up and there was no such thing as sin. Then a few days later I read that Christians that stopped believing were destined for hell. This scared me a lot!! So I started reading a lot of apologetics hoping to get my faith back but it didn't work, then on the Internet I read that true Christians never stopped believing this again made me panick even more. So ever since then iv been trying to get my faith back. My biggest fear is that iv never been a true Christian and that iv had my chance to become a Christian but I missed it and kept on sinning so the Holy Spirit has given up on me, because I don't feel convicted of sin anymore. So am I without hope? Am I condemmed to hell?

Is there anyone who's also rejected their faith like me and come back to believe? Or know of anyone that has please? It would be a great encouragement of someone has.

Hi Steve and welcome to Worthy.....    this is the welcome forum and is basically used to say hi and get to know people.   You need to post five times to be able to start threads in other forums so please forgive us for not getting into your problem here.   We have people come by with tacky posts and even porn occasionally and the five post is to keep down a lot of inappropriate things being posted.   The place is kind of big and it's hard to keep watch on it all.

I personally would have to know you a lot better to know what your situation is.....   It's very difficult to know or understand someone elses relationship with the Holy Spirit.

 

So tell us a bit more about yourself.

Hi and Welcome, Steve.  :th_wave:

Hi, Steve.

I have, wondered about Salvation in my own life, and consider my faith to be quite weak. I often sin, but I do believe in Jesus. You will get your faith back. Ask God to forgive your sins and strengthen your faith. All of us are on a journey of Faith and none of us is without sin.

Welcome to Worthy!!  Did you ask Jesus into your heart and ask to be forgiven? Is so you are His. Do you sin? Ask for forgiveness as soon as you do or as soon as you remember..... you may not have a change later.

Yes I did numerous times but first when I was 5 years old and not too long ago I got down on my knees and offered God my life to do with as he wished and pledged to know Him better every day. Not longer after this is when all the trouble started
