Talk to God,seek help from friends. Remove the those thoughts of suicide from your head.

Surround yourself with positive people. The sad thing is people around us can fuel the suicidal thoughts. I remember when i had such thoughts and my mum and dad kept on calling me names making me feel worthless and it took the strength of God for me not to go through it.

Just also think of happy thoughts. Positive thoughts and listen to inspirational videos

Stay positive
Surround yourself with people that encourage you not those that oppress you or remind you of your challenges.
Be confident that your salvation is imminent.
Have faith and believe in God completely.
Engage yourself and time in good activities.

Las las, you’ll be alright because God will meet you at the point of your need.

Jn 15:7

If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

What's the context and setting of this verse?

You misinterpreted the word abide in this context.

I don't need to abide in Christ. Christ never mentioned anyone abiding in him.

I believe he existed as a man sent to the Israelites as their savior just as Moses was sent to save his people from Pharaoh and Noah was to save the believers from the flood.



Wow that's a great enlightenment, in a couple of weeks you'll get encamped in a situation where the supposedly "man sent" will be the only one to save you.
Till then all the best.

In a couple of weeks?

Even Jesus doesn't know the hour. But you know what Jesus doesn't know.

Jesus can't even save himself not to talk of saving others.

When u are depressed it means u are unhappy or not joyful which might likely last a long time if u don't handle it with all seriousness.
Always make sure u study ur bible everyday, think less, do those things which makes u happy eg. cleaning, taking a long walk etc. Remember the bible said the joy of the Lord is our strength. Pls be strong and have faith in God

First, you are an educated and a handsome dude.

Think of things that bring you true joy....

Be born again. Roll your problems to God in prayers. Refuse negative thoughts and whatever brings horrible thoughts.... Break through the invisible chains!

You said "spirit of depression and suicide" so it's a spiritual battle....

Also be in the midst of worship songs/ worshippers..... Spiritual songs are great in lifting that spiritual baggage

There's no point typing what you don't know. Get a Bible and read it well to confirm he asked you to abide in Him. Your religion may portray Jesus as prophet but He is more than that to OP and true believers.

nice list and am happy I didnt see seed sowing, giving offerings n paying huge tithes like our MOG do make us believe that people doing them are special form thos dt dont do them..
was in a church in my state last year, and noticed sometin...
after the normal 2 offerings, the sunday sermon and calling out of first timers, the pastor did a special call for seed sowing..
he asked people with 500k upwards to come out for special blessings n few came out, he letter reduced it to 100k n above n more came out n ended up in 50k n above and seriously prayed n anointed those rich members..
what pissed me off was when he said "the rest of your with less than 50k should come and drop whatever you have, the lord needs to bless u more so you your level can be upgraded" and people were rushing to go and sow seed to get upgraded...
I angrily took my bible n left the church n blessed the northern begger i saw near the church with 1k and both of us were happy..
am still thinking If some Christians are reading their bible at all..
Well my brother the truth is that the program of grace which was handed to Apostle has ended,that's why many church can't hear from God,because God works with time; anytime His mind is interpreted, He moves.

I typed what I know. Jesus is no more than a Prophet.

A God is never born vaginally.
A God does not eat human food.
A God doesn't die.
A God is not protected by humans.
There are a million things Jesus did that proves he's not God.

Re: How Can I Abide In Christ This Year? by AntiChristian: 4:18pm On Jan 10, 2021
[quote author=ottega post=97915652][/quote]

Jesus is God.
Jesus is son of God.
Jesus is son of Man.
Jehovah is God.
Holy spirit is God.
And God is one.
Sin against the son is forgivable.
Sin against the holy spirit is unforgivable.
When Jesus was about to be baptized a voice said " This is my beloved son in whom I'm well please." So Jesus was talking to himself right?

When Jesus was dying he said Eli Eli... My Lord, My Lord...

He was calling himself again right?

"All authority on heaven and earth have been given to me" by who?

My father is greater than I.

Why did Jesus always say "my father"?

Our father who is in heaven...

Father was never on earth but in heaven!

Great insight

POWER OF FACTS and THE SIGNIFICANCE OF TRUTH.
Something dropped in my spirit this morning while praying, I call it the Power of Fact and Significance of The Truth. Now what's is your reality.
Remember, You and I have the whole reason to believe what we feel, see, smell, sense that's when we are being human living sensually and it's not a sin But I was made to believe that even in this life there are some people called Higher human, they are regarded higher because of what they know, The TRUTH and they have chosen to live by it regardless of what they sense, feel, see, smell they are higher than sensual men. They are Spiritual being Chai.
Spiritual men don't see the process, they don't see circumstances, they don't see the distracting happenings sensually they choose to focus on the known Truth.
They know God and relate with Him in Spirit and Truth Chai , I don't know if somebody is getting the idea this morning, see
It is of fact that the year has been a rugged year yea it is fact that you need healing, it is fact that your bank account is not smiling, as in you feeling like so down and neglected, helpless sometime and alone, Bro. Make I burst your brain you see there is a cunning being trying to distract you from the needful.
First, do you even know what God says about you, yea you feel that right now there's no link between where you are now and where God says you'll be lolz I quite understand that but it still means you are seeing things sensually, woo padi mi,there's nothing more in the link between your Here and the promised There than your understanding of the Truth and staying in good fellowship with your God.
See, it's FACT that your axe has fallen and sank in the river , But TRUTH is that God is sinking wood for your axe to float.. wow
Yea it is FACT that a great army has risen against your Jeoshafat in war, but the TRUTH of the lord is that with Praises your enemies shall come against each other and kill one another while you are focused on the worship of your God, yea just worship.
Yea, I understand that the army of Pharoah are behind your Isreal and the Red sea before her, but TRUTH is that the Red see shall path for your passage Yeas.
See, even in,Cannan Yeas they are giant but the TRUTH is that GOD would fight your battle you just relax and stay in the fellowship with God, forget the distracting facts of life, stay in and with the TRUTH.
Bro, Learn to Appeal to God's integrity. Remind Him of His words and promises for you,
But do you even know those words and Promises? So how can you lay claim on what you do not know Chai, don't allow devil to rub you of your inheritance, know your right in Christ.[/quote]

Many false Apostles are out there teaching people but since they're FALSE nothing tangible could be gained from their teachings!

Of course we can abide in Christ but how?

First of all read Psalm 23:6, what do you think about the last sentence? "And i will dwell in the house of JEHOVAH forever"

Well the house of God in David's days was the Tabernacle where the only pure worship was rendered throughout the earth back then. Later Solomon (David's son) built a Temple for the God of Israel in Jerusalem and it became the house of God until Jesus comes. But when Jesus arrived the Jews asked him "what sign have you to prove you're the Christ?" he said "I will tear down this Temple and rebuild it within three days" John 2:18-19

Jesus wasn't talking about the literal Temple but a spiritual Temple where people of all nations will flow in to worship the one and only true God {John 4:21-24 compared to Isaiah 2:2} inside this spiritual Temple people from all nations will gather, they will settle all the racial discrimination affecting other people who are outside this spiritual temple, they will render physical weapons useless and they will stop military service in that spiritual Temple! Isaiah 2:3-4

So it's only those who are dwelling in this spiritual Temple that are dwelling (abiding) in the Love of Christ! John 13:34-35

The question everyone should ask himself is

Who are those abiding in this spiritual Temple today?
Am i also one of them?

Thanks and God bless you! smiley

Have also been to that state in life befor..
1 always express your feeling to everyone..dont keep everything to yourself. Believe me loneliness kills faster than covid19.

2 try to associate yourself with people.. engage yourself with sometin busy so you wont have time to think...maybe if you you sport lover..go and play.

3 pray always... If there is someone to pray i believe there is a God to answer... Even if nobody seems to care...God is there for you..

Dont just give up..

the answer is number 3. All you need to do is obey Him - by submitting to obeying His commandments and Him alone. By obeying Him, you show then that you love Him.

Jesus Christ never really commanded that you praise Him, certainly not on the way that is typical of Christians even in today's world, but when you Obey Him, you invariably praise Him through your obedience.

Through your direct obedience of His commandments you serve Him.
