IM SO AFRAID (a confession and hope)

[Warrior]

Please listen everyone. I am leaning towards God now, But I have been deceived and attacked heavily by satan, I looked at my right hand and there are capillaries or blood vessels in a weird and very visible shape, But I thought it was the mark of the beast. I am so afraid of my own thoughts trapping me. You people are the first ones I ever told of this

I know I have NOT and NEVER will do something like that, but I am afraid that thinking this way means I have committed an unforgivable sin. I told Jesus in my heart I was afraid and asked forgiveness for believing I did such a thing, But I know I never did, and I was foolish to believe it

And Now everytime I remember my thinking "uh oh, I thought about the mark, does that mean I am condemned?" I desperately do not want to go to hell, but my brain is so sensitive to this thought, I will NEVER EVER NEVER do something like that, God knows me, but I was deceived and I feel like as long as I keep thinking about this, I will Go to hell

PLEASE HELP.......This is the heaviest attack I ever went through ever. This is heavier than porn

Read something encouraging in the bible and pray.

Hi inmate,

The bible tells us that we need to bring our thoughts into captivity and into the obedience of Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:3, 4, 5. This battle ground that you speak of, is in the mind and is not uncommon for someone who is thinking about accepting Jesus as Lord of their life. The enemy does not want people to get saved so he will sow lies into your mind to make you believe that you are unsavable. The bible is clear about this:

Romans 10
...“The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, 9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in Him will not be disappointed.”

Blessings!!!

Thanks for the encouragement, So now if I live Holy and obedient, Even though this lie races through my head, I am still saved?

You just need to believe what God's word says about himself and walk according to his word...Walking is a daily relationship with God. We don't always get it right but he is gracious toward those who believe in him - slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness.

Shalom!

Thank you!

if you are having feelings of forgiveness and guilt over what you have done or over what is happening to you then i can guarantee you that you have not committed the unforgiveable sin. do not listen to your emotons because they are many times tied to the flesh. listening to oue emotions is what gets us to lose faith by doubting. but remember we don't walk by sight but by faith. so read and study the Word and make yourself approved unto God. i have for a long time gotten confused about how to have faith but i have learned that we need to bring our feeling under subjection to the Word along with what we see and hear.

God bless

But I have been deceived and attacked heavily by satan,

This is concerning for a number of reasons foremost is your notion of what satan is and its power.

Do you read your Bible Inmate? Often?

 

[Warrior]

Well doesn't every Believer read? sure. But My mind is deceiving me of course im being attacked. satan wants me to give up and act like its too late for me anyways

Take control of satan in Jesus' name and tell him to leave. Look to what Christ is, not what you are. Jesus has defeated him.

 

[Angelina]

Every time these thoughts come up inmate, rebuke them, in Jesus name and counteract those thoughts using scripture.

Be Blessed!!!

Thanks. I know God knows that this is definitely not intentional.

 

[Angelina]

I know God knows but what you are experiencing is deliberate attacks from the enemy. You should be able to rebuke them easily enough

They are not your thoughts....they have been planted by the enemy

Be Blessed!

Inmate,

The mark of the beast will not happen till the middle of the tribulation period. You will be in heaven at that time so you will never take the mark of the beast.

The bible tells us to think on good things. Our short term memory is like a tape recording that repeats about every 20 miniutes. If you have an unpleasent thought it will recure over and over till you replace it. I suggest that you praise God and thank him for your salvation and any good thing in your life when ever a bad thought comes into your mind.

Thanks for the encouragement. I do believe in the Pre Trib Rapture I just want to be sure I will be taken

 

[Angelina]

Well I'm not a believer in the pre-trib doctrine either inmate... but that does not mean that I do not love you any less brother Eric!

Bless y'all!

Excellent spirit filled advise sister, and very well put.
I would like to add one thing, if I may-cause I'm gonna anyhow...

"You just need to believe what God's word says about himself" Indeed.
Just as important IMHO-we need to know what His word say's about us as well. We are victors! New Creations! "For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control." And we are so much more in Him. We need to know AND believe these things to build up in the faith. I believe what He says about who I am now, as a Christian-not what the world and satan tell me.
The battles rage on but the war has already been won! Let us run the race sisters!
In Christ The King,
