    True vs False Conversation, Faith & Works

    So I guess one thing new Christians get scared about, and I am new myself, is when we realize there are False Conversions. Then you get scared, am I a false convert? Another thing that pops up, is works. Works before faith, is just self righteousness; where as True Faith + Salvation will...

    Thank You

    It is not giving me that option anymore. I am asking that the admins correct so nobody who is unaware gets confused.

    Thank You

    I ask that the admins correct my mistake mentioned in my second post about the OP, so nobody reading it gets confused on what the Bible teaches. I can no longer edit my OP.

    Thank You

    Edit: Jesus led a sinless life, not a sinful life. That was an honest mistake. Jesus lived a perfect SINLESS life!

    How can you tell

    Like how Daniel was able to see the angel of the Lord in the lion’s den keeping their mouths shut. I just wanted to quote you and say that, as I am a new Christian and have been slowly learning the Bible with an adult understanding as opposed to my non-paying attention as a child, teen and all...

    Thank You

    My introduction thread was all about my difficult time after my baptism. You all gave me a lot of good advice in it. My other thread was about my insomnia. I have good news. I believe the few months since my baptism in April were partly due to not fully understanding all of it and partly due...

    Marijuana for Sleep

    I have insomnia, and have had it for almost two months now. Nothing prescribed works and they won’t prescribe me ambien. I gave up smoking weed in April, after smoking it for three years non-stop and became a Christian. I know being a drug user is a sin. I am seriously considering getting a...

    I am having a difficult time contacting someone.

    That I wronged and need to ask forgiveness. Will God still forgive me, if I simply can’t get in touch with them?

    Faith Crisis

    I failed to mention that I was baptized when I was around 13, but it was in my 30s I became a full blown atheist after years of removing God from my life; and this year realized how wrong I was. So yes, I was guilty of apostasy. I’ve repented to God over it. I have no idea the second baptism was...

    Faith Crisis

    I have not read all of Genesis yet, but I have read the Gospels, Luke twice. I am greatly enjoying Acts. Acts alone has increased my faith. I am thankful to the poster that sent the link about just needing to believe. It is helping me. I continue to pray everyday to discern God’s will for my...

    Faith Crisis

    I posted this in New Members, but was encouraged to post it here. I’ve already had some good responses, but I want to see what everyone has to say. This will be a little long, but I have been in a crisis of faith. I’ve lived a life of greed, sloth and material good, as well as being an...

    Faith Crisis

    I forgot to add that I realized I was living in condemnation of my past, and in the following weeks we burned a lot of stuff I was holding above God; which I think was more out of a zeal.

    Faith Crisis

    This will be a little long, but I have been in a crisis of faith. I’ve lived a life of greed, sloth and material good, as well as being an atheist. In April, I joined my wife’s church after realizing God is real and Jesus died for my sins, but that was the extent of my knowledge (I was baptized...
