So, to answer a question you engage in meaningless semantics.

 

I’m sorry you feel that way.

A better question: when God convicts you of sin, where does that conviction come from? Without or within?

Why is that a better question?

Now, just as you do with Yowm, you engage in semantics to avoid answering the question.

Explain to me exactly what a "personal relationship with Jesus" looks like.  What is required?  Explain it to me like I just walked in off the street.

Why don't you actually deal with what I wrote first.

Just once, I'd like to see you deal with a question directly when you answer a post.  It's worth a try.

What a personal relationship with Christ “looks” like? That is a way to subjective question,  seeing how you can’t “see” a relationship. 

But to try and answer you question;

Scripture says ; 

Proverbs 18:24 (NASB)
A man of [too many] friends [comes] to ruin, But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

Christ is that friend who sticks closer than a brother. It’s getting to know this “Friend” just like you would anybody else. 

Scripture also says; 

John 14:23 (NASB)
Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.

Having a personal relationship with Christ is keeping His commandments. Than He will form Himself in you and you will be conformed to His image and you will “know” that friend who sticks closer than a brother. 

Much love in Christ, Not me

Because it recognizes the source of conviction and doesn't try to place it in fallible man.

But is that not  just your opinion of which question is more important?

But to answer your question;

Where is the “source” of the conviction? 

Answer;

It is the Spirit of God. 

Much love in Christ, Not me

That's it?

If I were a lost soul, wanting to understand what a personal relationship with Jesus was and/or looked like and you gave me the above non-answer, I would walk away no better off than when I first asked the question.  Your answer above would be of absolutely no help to someone looking for a relationship with Jesus because it does not explain anything at all.  You typed out a post, but it doesn't actually explain anything and you in no way answered my question.  You still can't seem to deal adequately with a direct question.  So I'll ask the question again:

Explain to me exactly what a "personal relationship with Jesus" looks like.

Because you don’t like or understand my answer you call it a “non answer”. For you it may be a non answer.  Since I am not able to give you a answer, that will answer your heart, on what a personal relationship with Christ “looks” like. May I offer you a subjection?  Why don’t you ask Jesus what a personal relationship with Him looks like. I’m quite sure He can explain it much better than I. For He knows how to talk to your heart so that you might “hear”. 

much love in Christ, Not me

@Cobalt1959

I never implied you didn’t have a relationship with Christ. You asked me what one “looks” like. I gave you an answer. Which you didn’t like. Even though the answer was a correct and good one. So having failed at touching your personal relationship with Christ.  So than I directed you to Christ Himself, for  Him to teach you what you would for whatever reason not receive from me. 

But I do thank you for blessing me this morning. For when I read you have a personal relationship with Christ my heart leaped for joy! 

Seeing that you have a personal relationship with Christ. You  have answered your own question, and your heart knows how real it is, also,, how deep it is, also,  how personal and that He is “closer than a brother”.  So than you would know what one looks  like. 

Knowning that there are believers at all stages in their relationship with Christ. There are some that have a weak relationship with Christ and also there are those that have a stronger. But either way, regardless, they are to be welcomed, loved and accepted. So to my brother in Christ, I wish you an increase in Christ in your innermost being. 

Much love in Christ, Not me

Yes, it’s that one and one relationship between a believer and Jesus. Thanks for your post. 

Much love in Christ, Not me.

Quench not THE SPIRIT .    absolutely true .    But I tell us all what spirit we better quench and let it not even once enter our heart.

The all inclusive anti Christ spirit which is leading all right into the snare under a false sensual love for world unity and peace.  YEAH I say unto you , QUENCH THAT ONE false spirit

and not the HOLY SPIRIT .      Now you all throw those hands up and praise the LORD .
