Once saved always saved and sin in a Christian's life????? Can you explain it to me. Like if I got lied one time and died or God came would I go to hell or is it a process of sanctification? Because I want to live a perfect life. Who is perfect? God saw Abraham as righteous. Is it bad that I want to be righteous? Should I be comparing myself to others? What sins do Christians commit? I'm so confused. What is the unforgivable sin? An example. Does God hate people? He hated Esu. How so I know if God hates me or not. I'm a Christian but I'm afraid of going to hell. I don't know why exactly. I'm just confused. Is suicide blasphemy too? To tell you a little bit about myself I struggle with sccitzafeffective disorder. It's a demon that taunts me.

Kayla, please try to take things a day at a time with the Lord's help. Trust in Him, pray and read the Bible. You will then grow spiritually. It's ok to have some questions, but I don't want you to become more disturbed in your mind...since you suffer from that already.

How so I know if God hates me or not.

Let's start with this one: One of the grounding principles of the Christian faith is that God is loving and loves the world He created. That means that God cares about @Kayla McCanny. That is a hill I'm willing to die on.

God knows you're hurting really bad now, but it's true. You'll have to take this one on faith. It's really important. Okay?

Let me add a postscript: If you can trust that truth in John 3:16-17, then maybe you can stop worrying about committing the unforgivable sin and going to Hell and living a perfect life and comparing yourself to others and all that other stuff. You might find it to be a big relief.

Hi Kayla,

God loves us so much that He gave us this gift of life--it's a gift. And He has allotted our whole life to come to know Him and decide to be like Him, as if we were born as His child. If you can grasp hold of that fact, and want that, and believe that He can make it happen--He will--and it has already begun. So you can relax--He's got you. It started the day you were born, and when you latch onto that understanding about Him, when you believe it in your heart--He does it again--He gives you new life, real life, just like being a little part of Him. That is you being born again of His spirit, which then grows just as your natural body did. But this life, this born of the spirit of God life that comes when you believe in Him in your heart with no going back--it's forever--and the best is yet to come. Wait for it!

Dear sister, you have a serious illness, mood swings and you can't help, the Lord knows, He loves you and does not judge you on things you don't have control. Warm yourself in the faith you belong to Him, that you are bought with a price, in those hours of despair trust Him.

Matt 11:28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Matt 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Matt 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Blessings.

Okay, now I need to address THAT elephant in the room, because I can see how any demon worth its sulphur could jujitsu what I just wrote about God's love into something like, "If God really loves you, He won't mind if you take that exit". There IS demonic activity going on here, and it might not be what you think it is. Don't fall for it. It's a trap, and it comes from the pit of Hell.

I just added protection from the Evil One to my prayers for you, along with healing and trust and recognition of God's love for you.prywpryrwpryb
