In the book of Matthew chapter 13 the Lord Jesus talks about the parable of the sower. All apart from those who fell on the good turned back to their evil ways because they had no roots in themselves. The psalmist said thy word have I laid in my heart that I may not sin against you. Now my question is how much of the word do you know. As a christian you need to read the word to know the mind of your creator. The bible is like the manual (manufacturer's mind on paper) and except you read it you will not know how the product (you) is expected to function. Secondly you need to find a church where sin is blatantly forbidden and need to make friends with those who are serious with their faith as evil company corrupts good manners. Thirdly engage in envangelism yourself. Try to win souls for God. Finally be serious with your faith. Jesus said in matt 10:39 that "he who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it". The preceeding verse talks about carring your cross and following him. As a christian there are certain things you need to avoid. Work out your faith my brother. See you in heaven 1 Like |

bomsilaga:you are getting it wrong my dear. U have to confess ur sins and accept Christ with ur mouth b4 u can be saved. That Christ died does not give u automatic salvation, salvation Is not automatic . U must do something to be saved and that is ur confession if Jesus as ur Lord and saviour . That is why the bible says ' with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation'. Romans 10:10. And after receiving salvation u stil need grace to maintain it. That is why the bible says in Philipians 2:12 that u work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. What grace does is to enable u mauntain ur salvation thru faith 1 Like |

as someone who was in your shoes I'll recommend you read the book the overcoming life by watchman nee. basically you will come to the understanding that there is nothing you or me can do to save ourselves no matter how hard we try we cannot save ourselves it's only God that can save us. so here's the way say a sincere prayer to God that u leave it all to him even the ability to make u leave the old things behind and In a few days come and thank me |

tayooluwole:Bros from your writeup and comments it's quite obvious that you are not yet serious to live a christian life. When you are ready God will help you from within to bear good fruits and remember that you don't receive Christmas two times, if you have received him you have received him so the next stage is stop what is evil and start doing the things that are right. Shalom |

Pierohandsome: in the old covenant, you have to believe but in the new covenant you must confess - didn't say confession is invalid all i have been trying to say is that grace is automatic once you are in the household of faith through confession and when you have gotten this grace, then you have nothing to do again on your part. WITHOUT THE NUDGING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, no man can ever be righteous on his own |

bomsilaga:we are stil on the same page jst that ur issue of not doing anything is the argument here which i am trying to correct. If u don't have to do anything hw do people accept christ and stil go back to sin? Didnt they receive the grace? U dnt have to do anything to receive grace, but u have to do something with the grace to to maintain ur salvation |

You are born once.. And this means you ve a new spirit but an old mind and body which is full of old habits and takes time to be transformed by the daily renewal through the word of God...Its takes time but I can assure u that God is a patient God.. First make new godly friends.. Do not stay in the mist of wrong company because u can never change with them around you...find a good church where u can fellowship in a cell and get committed, find a good woman who can help you in character and in prayers, above all pray and study the word of God little by little..talk to God like you talk to urself ( that's my kind of prayer). Whatever be the sin, there is a gradual step by step way out. Just pour out your soul unto God and He will reach out to u... More Grace to u 1 Like |

Deicide: That's the Nigerian brand of Christianity for you. Commit all types of evil deeds and repent once you're done. You can keep doing the same evil stuff as long as you repent, you have been 'saved by Grace' and you won't be held accountable for your actions. 1 Like 1 Share |

You need help. Teaching, Counselling and Mentoring is the help that you need. Separating yourself from every appearance of evil and from those who encourage you in the wrong direction is a decision only you can make. If you keep relishing the sinful habit that will destroy you, God will let what you allow to be your lot. |

[right][/right][color=#990000][/color][quote author=costandi post=63357617]Firstly, understand that you are born again once and for all. You can't be born again twice. This doesn't mean you can't back slide. The problem however is that you haven't subdued the flesh. Bro, if you truly believe in Jesus Christ as your lord and saviour in your heart, you immediately become God's righteousness, if you then confess with your mouth, you're saved....Romans 10:10. Anytime you have heart knowledge of who you're in Christ i.e. God's righteousness, this new identity will guard the way you act....but it takes little time from the day you Born again before you believe your new identity.....anytime the thought to commit come, tell the thought who you are, you are God's righteousness. |

let's put religion aside and ask yourself certain questions like 1. Why did I begin a habit 2. Why did I allow it control me 3. what must I do to stop this habits till you think about this things then you would start planning on changing because most times people don't really change the best they can do is try to suppress what ever habit, claiming to be born again and not living a righteous life is totally your fault There is a saying which says it's best to avoid doing something than to start and face the consequences of your choices truth be told alot of people have this mentality that is why people come out more than once to give their life to Christ because they keep doing what they claimed to have stopped or something entirely different and ungodly best regards |

Pierohandsome:you go back to sin not because you were not saved. you go back to sin because the devil wants your relationship with God constantly smeared until you begin to question your salvation So only your relationship with God is affected and the grace is ever there pleading and advocating on your behalf-that's Grace (you were supposed to be dead, cursed, punished by God but nah He aint doing that to you) |

you still dont know what you want from life...my advice is to ask self what you trually want and how to go about it...ask and examine your life and daily aftivities of what is pulling you down from serving jesus christ....then meet a man of God to pray for you and deliver you from this demonic setback....you are blessed |

IMO > You are still born again. You are conscious and battling with some sins in your life ....causing you to backslide or think you are no longer born again...God created us in such a way that we can never be perfect ......praying and being steadfast in him will keep us going John said Yes u can sin 1 John 1> 8 *If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.*...........old habit dont t die in one day .... * 9 > * If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. John said no u cannot sin 1John 3>9 No you cannot sin "Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God. What is happening here is that John is saying that the one who is born again does not habitually abide in sin. He may fall into it, but he does not practice it as a lifestyle..try as much as possible tio keep away from that sin ..... The most intense part of the Battle is in our Minds....where Satan attacks the Fiercest.....which is why we need to daily put on the armor of God .. ... David Struggled with so many sins.... You would have expected God to take sin away from him .... Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked *to entice , seduce,persuade* David to number Israel.... fiery darts Satan throw at our minds....lustful thought , condemnation ,....followed by who will know ....what will it matter. |

bomsilaga:Shall we continu in sin that grace may abound? Romans 6:1, 1 john 3:9. If u claim to be saved and stil commit sin then u are fooling urself, u are not saved but still a sinner. Go and read the above scriptures and meditate on it so u cn stop calling urself a child of God while stil wallowing in sin |
