I’m going to try to explain Christianity, very simply, and I hope you’ll reply with whatever questions you might have. The Father and Son are mentioned as distinct over 200 times. If you want to be part of His Kingdom, you must acknowledge that He is King, and that to be part of His Kingdom you must submit to His authority. If there wasn’t a big tree in the way, I could look out my window right now and see a hill where you and I could go touch some fossilized dinosaur footprints. I don’t know that Scripture backs that up exactly, but I’m not going to argue against it at this point. Well, say if you died tomorrow and you weren't baptized, and all you had done was become a Christian, then yes you would go to Heaven. Serve God in all you do, and you can learn what you were created for. It’s that everybody I’ve ever dealt with who has experiences like yours makes the same mistake. It’s clear that some people who think they are saved aren’t actually saved. Christians begin this process before they die. After being left behind in the temple at 12 years old, He told Mary that He had to be “in my Father’s house.” Jesus doesn’t do whatever He wants… He only does what the Father tells us to do. It appears that “wrong” may or may not be the best description. It sounds like you really want your sins to be washed away. You should be aware that not everybody who gathers with the church is born again. My friend, if he hadn’t of looked to his side. As we read in 2 Corinthians 5, God has reconciled the world to Himself through Jesus’ death. Have you been born again? God would not make you pay the penalty that Jesus paid for you! Thank you for your response. But whenever they are around I can’t play my music around them. He left the conclusions up to you and me. The Father is not the Son, nor the Spirit…and the Spirit is not the Son. Being baptized only gets you wet. Romans 4:3. You show wisdom here, and it’s nice to see it. The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. We have been instructed, by Jesus Himself, to be baptized. That’s good.

I wasn’t able to find any information on babies being born with none of their mother’s DNA. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks. I remember the moral stories of Cain being punished for murdering Abel, Adam and Eve being cast out for disobeying god, and much more, so it’s left to ponder – What defines an action as wrong in the eyes of god? I believe that each person’s sin, while grievous to God, is irrelevant in one sense: that a sinner who is reconciled to God will be considered righteous because of Jesus’ death on their behalf. I have good news, though: it doesn’t have to be this way! If your parents will allow it, you should be baptized. There are no perfect churches. im Dezi what if your saved but your still scared about whats gonna happen and when it happens…. God wants everybody to be with Him for eternity, because He loves everybody.

Baptism is just getting wet…but it’s getting wet in front of people to tell them you want to walk with them in faith. He was born with medical problems, and I have done as much as I can to help. I’d love to meet you! Baptizing an alive person just gets them wet. He’s in charge. Angels and humans are simply two different kinds of beings that God has created, like cats and giraffes. You can be privately baptized it never says in the bible that you cannot be privately baptized. God IS love, and all that He does is done in love. When we’re discussing something that Christians throughout history have considered a direct command, it’s not enough to point to what the Bible doesn’t say. Think of it like a chair.

So, the caring person who wants nothing to do with God gets their wish…and the hateful, terrible person who wishes to change and be forgiven and to do things God’s way also gets their wish, and will be in Heaven. You may feel false guilt from time to time, but that’s just a matter of reminding yourself that Jesus died to pay for your sins. You can read them online anytime. In the Bible, God says that Jesus died to pay the price for your sins (and mine).

'”, Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness. Have a great day, my friend! That’s not how it works at all. I don’t think there needs to be a ‘now what’ in this situation. In this vision, he was to tell the city of Salem, Oregon that they would be devastated by an earthquake if they didn’t repent and turn toward God. (1 John 1:5-9). I will do anything I can to help you be less confused…all you have to do is ask. When we decide to turn our lives over to God and trust Him with the results, we are reconciled. Jesus talked about that in John 3. He said that no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again…so our family history, church attendance, and baptism are irrelevant if we haven’t been born again. You ask an interesting question, and it’s one that puzzles a lot of people. I appreciate it. We should also pay close attention to what it does say. I hate sin, and I dislike sin! How does being reborn into your next life change by being saved in this life? I read and watch different articles and videos on the gospel and each one contradicts the other. God will not judge you for things you cannot control. There’s nothing wrong with liking someone’s music. Theological problems inevitably lead to relationship problems with God, which is why I feel the need to caution you. (Going based off the idea that one must atone for sin before entry into Heaven). If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. Is it that you don’t really know Him ? There is no penalty left for sins, so Purgatory is a false doctrine. I would probably feel the same. You’ve given me some clues, but I’d like to ask a few questions. But believing on Jesus is only the beginning, not the finalization. We’re not all great at it yet, but we want to be like God. Bring your guilt to God and ask Him to help you turn from the things that you should avoid.

The word satan is Hebrew, and it means “adversary”. Let me explain why I say that. You asked “does God not accept people who believe in other gods?“. Did you read that book and then wonder whether there’s a real Hell, and not just ‘hell on earth’? That is, however, the wrong standard. It seems clear that nobody will be sent to Heaven or Hell, under normal circumstances, until the end of time. This is still very much a work in progress for me and I take it day by day, but I’m confident that God will help me overcome it, where once I was not confident at all. I’m unsure how we can believe in the Bible and believe it wasn’t faked. Christian is still a word that has meaning. Im very confused. In John 20:17, Jesus said, Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Ephesians 2:1-10. Which is fairly more secular compared to what I listen to. Jesus told this story to show us what God is like. I have been baptized in past lives and I know this from regressions, however I am afraid to get baptized in this lifetime and this fear resonates in my soul. Christianity teaches that it’s the other way around: we are never alone.

Next, we should ask ‘who decides who gets into Heaven?’. Faith in Christ is the agent that makes the baptism in Matthew 28:19 life changing according to Colossians 2:12, “buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God…” and Galatians 3:26-27, “So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith in Christ for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.” Baptism now saves us due to faith in Christ (1 Peter 3:21-22). It’s a shame you don’t have a donate button! If you’re confident that the chair will support your weight, that’s belief, not trust. Everything that happens each day is because Christ already laid it out before the foundation of the world. No, that is most definitely NOT what I’m saying. Acts 2:41 says that they which gladly received his Word were baptized, and 3,000 souls were added to the Church that day. 1. We’re actually changed. If Jesus the man was ignorant of the time of His return (Matthew 24:36), then He could also be tempted as a man. I didn’t study the bible and I went to bible study once. When we confess our sins – that is, when we go to God and tell Him that we are sorry for what we’ve done – He will forgive us. They had enough information already…God had revealed Himself sufficiently already, and they wouldn’t believe that. When I’m done explaining it to you, you too will know whether you, or anyone else, will make it to Heaven. The man was worried about his loved ones, and was eager to help them avoid his fate. The word is used (historically, not in the Bible) to describe the moon, the planet Venus, John the Baptist, and even Jesus. That’s salvation. This is a common concern, as many Christians want to make sure they’re doing things as God intends. I remember crying thinking, if I’m having problems with this, I can’t be saved. Let me know. God did that. All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. You are born again. Good question. All it takes is surrender. It’s the same GOD of the Old Testament and his word is infallible so I’m confused about the change. It is only your body that is in the ground not your spirit, Correct me if I am wrong please. I would love to discuss this with your further, should you need a hand. To a first-century Israeli mind, a private baptism is an oxymoron…two things that can’t go together. Sorry if this is a bit all over the place, I’m just confused and never really learned about religion that much and I’m a teen. Baptism doesn’t wash off your sins. If it does, I BEG you to make sure you’re attending a church that teaches directly from the Bible, that gives you opportunities to hang out with more mature believers who will support and encourage you, and that can help you learn to better trust God with your troubles. Are bankruptcy and debt spiritual consequences? Our bodies will be transformed at the coming of Jesus. I’m sorry to hear that your sisters have died, but people do not turn into angels.

First, a false teacher is a teacher. Troubles. Jesus came to me in a dream and told me “I am coming soon” this was in 2015 sometime in February I am scared because when that comes my grandma believes in something else but not jesus but she is a really good person I do not want her to go to hell and I don’t want to tell her what to believe in I really need help. I always cared about what others think ever since I was a small child and dealt with vanity too. The Bible clearly teaches that Jesus is God. Don’t be afraid to ask Him for help. I Kept addressing “them” as separate entities, praying to the father in the name of Jesus, his son. What would the Pastor say to a person before being baptized, what must i be reconciled for. Do you believe that a 13 year old who believes in God but hasn't gotten baptized yet, if he died, he would go to hell?

If you’re looking for some music, I can recommend Awesome Christian Music. (Luke 3:16). In the Bible, God says that He loves us. He’s an interesting guy. Even if I have earphones on, they would want to hear what I’m listening to. We also gain eternal life. He knows better than I do. So I have 2 questions: Should Christians listen to secular or non-christian music? I salvation defined by one easy action, or is purgatory deniable? But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. Did you catch that? The important question is whether you’ve been born again, Deborah. Yes, Jesus paid the penalty for all mankind but all mankind has the choice to accept what Jesus did through faith, baptism and following Jesus and his word. All of those friends have at least one thing in common: they are what the Bible describes as spiritually immature. Compare. Thus the greater urgency to advance the Church’s Great Commission (Matt.

I am torn. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.

Jesus was buried in a tomb, as this was the tradition of that day. How can we get to heaven without baptism? On the topic of baptism, you again pick and choose a few verses, but fail to include other verses that apply. Only my Church can perform true baptisms . Let me put the scenario into another context. When we decide to trust Him with our lives, and choose to do the things He wants us to do, He makes us spiritually alive. Jesus told a story where a son who did pretty much everything wrong. Do you belong to Him? Why do some religious establishments usually Christian seem to be so judgemental of homosexuals and gay marriage and homosexuality period but turn a blind eye to fornication, rape, incest and child abuse? He was explaining the difference between following human traditions, which focus on external things, and following God, who looks at our hearts to see the truth. How did you find me? Jesus was being baptized as an adult, not as a baby or even a child. Thanks again for writing, my friend. I see nothing in the Bible to suggest that Christians need to dispose of their bodies in any particular way. You may have noticed that I didn’t mention baptism. I need answers on how to deal with this. If you believe in Jesus Christ, why are you waiting? There’s no spiritual reason that I know of to do it more than once, though.

Clearly, God decides. Nope. I believe fully in the gospel of Jesus Christ but I have yet to be baptized and it is for this very reason: every church I have attended is visibly wicked. He will judge us based on what we do know. Why did Lucifer rebel against God? You did more for me with your signing of the check analogy than they did.
