1 | forgiveness confirmed? | 1 John 1:1 | GJH | 61121 | ||
Back on 9/12 I posted my first question. I asked if I had possibly lost my chance at salvation, through committing an unpardonable sin. The encouragement received through the responses was wonderful. It had ended a three year struggle. Now, only a few days later, my joy has been replaced by a fear that I seem incapable to fight. The question is, am I supposed to experience something definative to confirm that my relationship with the Lord has been restored? It seems to me that there should be. Any comments would be appreciated, it's been a long day. | ||||||

GJH, Review the below scriptures. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God, in your reading you will discover that God has never left you. He has already loved you by sending His Son, do you want a pat on the back too! Just start walking with God, step by step, in time you will see that you've come a long way. God bless you. Jer 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Jer 29:12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. Jer 29:13 And ye shall seek me, and find [me], when ye shall search for me with all your heart. (KJV) |

Hi inmyheart, I think that the marginal reference for Jeremiah 29:13 of Mt 7:7 is a good companion verse. But Matthew 6:33 would also be good for someone who has had a long day but is seeking to please the Lord. Mt 6:33, "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Backing up a few verses in Jeremiah, we can also sense a hope for someone who has "backslidden" in verse 10, "When seventy years have been completed in Babylon, I will visit you and fufill My good word to you, to bring you back to this place." I don't know if I would base a doctrine on that verse, but it seemed to me to be an appropriate verse for the situation for GVH. For He knows the plans that He has for him. From the heart, Ray |

Ray, Hello my brother, thank you for your referrence. Matthew 6:33, is great for our provisions from God, however, to understand that God knows the plans for our lives is awesome. To know that our God loves us, that He made each one unique, that we each have a purpose that can only be accomplish between God and the individual. When that revelation is understood, yes we will seek His righteousness passionately, daily. God bless you, my brother! |
