For the "answering doubts", I want to give a warning. You might not get an answer you like. Do not let that waver your faith though. Understand that God is not a genie. He will not give you everything you want, including knowledge, but He will provide everything you need. Understand that deserves the glory not because He healed you, not because He gave you what you wanted/needed, not because He gives you things, but because He holds power, authority, and is the Creator of everyone and everything. Although He is to be praised for His giving nature, and they are wonderful things, do not let those things be the only foundation of your faith. God is merciful, but also just. He is the Creator and holds authority over you simply because He does. He is your creator, and that is all that is needed to honor Him. Honor God. Honor Christ for being God. Honor your Savior, your Provider, your Creator, and your Father. Ave Christus Rex!

Jesus tells is to love our neighbor as ourselves. How can we do that without empathy? What is empathy? Understanding another person's struggle/pain because you have experienced it yourself. We go through hardships because they lead us to perseverance, which leads to hard work, which leads to character. If we never struggle, we will never grow. Pressure makes a diamond, after all.

The way to believe Him is not by looking for miracles or signs. The biggest thing is reading the word. As for questions like why He allows evil etc, one thing is how could we see what is sinful and turn away from it if there is no sin? God says in scripture He will destroy the wisdom of the world and of the proud. This is how He chooses to reveal Himself. Because pride, the foremost sin, is the direct opposite of selflessness and God. God wants faith, and this means a jealousy for the things He is jealous for. A passion for what He is passionate for. So yes, God could choose to just eliminate sin and evil and make everyone righteous by His own hand. But we see from the beginning of Genesis and through ourselves that God cares about free will. Which means He wants to be served willingly and consciously. He wants to be glorified willingly and for His creations to be glad when He loves them. In short He wants a relationship. A passionate, loving relationship with us as His children and servants who love the work He gives us while we are here on Earth. A relationship even through our failures and blemishes because when we are saved in Christ, He doesn't see the failures anymore. He promises to be a loving father who disciplines His children, not do them evil nor act in anger toward them. Verses I reference when writing this: 1 Corinthians 1:18-20, Romans 4:7-8, Ephesians 2:8-10, Romans 9:20-21, Romans 1:18-19, Proverbs 1:7, Proverbs 3:5-7, Romans 12:2, Thessalonians 5:16-18 But the main thing is believing the Father sent the son and that He did it as an act of love. You become a Christian when you believe this and respond rightly by giving your own life in return. Anyone can believe in a head-knowledge way that God is real and sent Jesus. Anyone can believe it in an apathetic way or even simply with gratitude. But the right response is making the conscious decision to offer your life back and to turn away from sin. 1 John 3:16-18, John 13:35, Phillipines 3:8, Romans 6:22-23, Isaiah 54:6, Galatians 5:24

I'm an addict, I used cocaine for 5 years in a roll, been clean for 2 months now, and why I'm clean you may ask, 'cause I found a rosary that no one in my family knows how it was in my stuff, and since I've found it I went back to church, catholic, with my loving grandma and I made a promise to never use coke again. I was literally saved by a miracle from God, a calling that he showed me and I'm proud to say that God is there for everyone, he's our saviour.

I was shot and left for dead. In that moment, I had NOTHING. I was dying, and I knew it. Not in a yell, not in a scream, but in a whisper, I talked to God. I said, "Father, I need you now. I need you more than ever. Please help me." After I said those words, I felt The Lord wrap Hos arms around me. He was with me, and I knew it. From that moment on, my mentality went from, "I'm going to die." to "I'm going to live." I overcame (with the love and power of my Lord) a .001% survival rate. I now am also an actor and play for the USA Paralympic Sitting Volleyball team, married with 3 children. God is so good! He is faithful. He's all that matters.

My thing is, why would a God who loves us allow us to doubt He even exists at all? Like my parents if I'm ever in a bad spot will be there to help and comfort me, but with God He gives nothing. And when I ask for any sign to believe in Him.. Nothing. If He does exist, He doesn't care if I believe or not. Doesn't exactly seem like a loving Heavenly Father. I miss being a christian, going to church, being part of the church community, always feeling like I have someone I can talk to, I would thank Him for everything in my life. He felt real. But given everything I've learned, I don't think He is, or ever was.
@RafaelSalomon375
Ай бұрын
Hey bro, so to answer your first question, God cares A LOT that you believe in Him. Just look at John 4:23, 24. When you ask God to give you a sign, you need to keep your eyes open because his sign probably won't come in the way you're expecting. Also about the bad spot thing, God is always there for you. I know how you feel, its like sometimes when you get into that bad spot, you just feel like God forgot about your or just doesn't care right? Well, He does, He cares so much he sent his one and only son to DIE for you, to pay the price for salvation. Remember that when you feel lonely. While God may not be here physically with you, he is in spirit. Whenever you feel depressed, sad or down, pray, its what I do. Ask God to help you. Your doubt might make you think that 'oh God won't care for me anymore because I stopped believing' but thats the opposite, he cares more than we could ever imagine for you. Also this is a hard situation you're having, I feel you. Feel free to reach out to me if you want to. But PLEASE, don't go through this alone.

He said " it is a wicked generation that demands a sign " he has left so many signs and miracles to not believe in him. Just look at nature, the sunset, other humans. People want to say that was an accident, there's 0 chance of that, beauty doesn't come from chance, and he left us the Bible with all we could need to know. As well as what I've learned is that when I demand stuff I get nothing, but, if I choose to believe and trust him for what I don't know, that's when I feel closest to Him, at my lowest and most unsure. It's that Act of trust and holding on that pulls me to Him.

The way to have unshakeable faith is if we believe God sent His son and if we believe that was an act of love. We come to Christ by responding rightly to that sacrifice by giving our lives in return. Yes hardship does produce endurance and perseverance, but what really helps one draw closer the most is reading His word and getting to know His character. If we have been saved in Christ, we have the ability through the Holy Spirit to become more Holy in our own character. When we do this and when we pray along with it is when we see Gods hand in everything. It is not an act of God if it is a miracle or some answered prayer. God is sovereign over everything. This way of learning more about Him and asking to come to know Him is how you come to see why God does the things He does so that you come to see His work in your own life. Hardship and miracles should not be treated as proof that God is real. Those things strengthen already existing faith, but should not be proof of faith or of God. Love is proof that God is real for love is of God and from God. He loved us first so we could love like He does. 1 John 4:7-15 "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love. By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us. By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit. We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God."

Jesus is GOD. AMEN. Psalms 139:1-24 NKJV [1] O Lord, You have searched me and known me. [2] You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off. [3] You comprehend my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways. [4] For there is not a word on my tongue, But behold, O Lord, You know it altogether. [5] You have hedged me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me. [6] Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is high, I cannot attain it. [7] Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? [8] If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there. [9] If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, [10] Even there Your hand shall lead me, And Your right hand shall hold me. [11] If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall on me,” Even the night shall be light about me; [12] Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You, But the night shines as the day; The darkness and the light are both alike to You. [13] For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. [14] I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well. [15] My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. [16] Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them. [17] How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! [18] If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake, I am still with You. [19] Oh, that You would slay the wicked, O God! Depart from me, therefore, you bloodthirsty men. [20] For they speak against You wickedly; Your enemies take Your name in vain. [21] Do I not hate them, O Lord, who hate You? And do I not loathe those who rise up against You? [22] I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them my enemies. [23] Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; [24] And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting. bible.com/bible/114/psa.139.1-24.NKJV

He will not give you everything you want, including knowledge, but He will provide everything you need. Understand that deserves the glory not because He healed you, not because He gave you what you wanted/needed, not because He gives you things, but because He holds power, authority, and is the Creator of everyone and everything. Although He is to be praised for His giving nature, and they are wonderful things, do not let those things be the only foundation of your faith. God is merciful, but also just. He is the Creator and holds authority over you simply because He does. He is your creator, and that is all that is needed to honor Him. Honor God. Honor Christ for being God.

The way to believe Him is not by looking for miracles or signs. The biggest thing is reading the word. As for questions like why He allows evil etc, one thing is how could we see what is sinful and turn away from it if there is no sin? God says in scripture He will destroy the wisdom of the world and of the proud. This is how He chooses to reveal Himself. Because pride, the foremost sin, is the direct opposite of selflessness and God. God wants faith, and this means a jealousy for the things He is jealous for. A passion for what He is passionate for. So yes, God could choose to just eliminate sin and evil and make everyone righteous by His own hand. But we see from the beginning of Genesis and through ourselves that God cares about free will. Which means He wants to be served willingly and consciously. He wants to be glorified willingly and for His creations to be glad when He loves them. In short He wants a relationship. A passionate, loving relationship with us as His children and servants who love the work He gives us while we are here on Earth. A relationship even through our failures and blemishes because when we are saved in Christ, He doesn't see the failures anymore. He promises to be a loving father who disciplines His children, not do them evil nor act in anger toward them. Verses I reference when writing this: 1 Corinthians 1:18-20, Romans 4:7-8, Ephesians 2:8-10, Romans 9:20-21, Romans 1:18-19, Proverbs 1:7, Proverbs 3:5-7, Romans 12:2, Thessalonians 5:16-18 But the main thing is believing the Father sent the son and that He did it as an act of love. You become a Christian when you believe this and respond rightly by giving your own life in return. Anyone can believe in a head-knowledge way that God is real and sent Jesus. Anyone can believe it in an apathetic way or even simply with gratitude. But the right response is making the conscious decision to offer your life back and to turn away from sin. 1 John 3:16-18, John 13:35, Phillipines 3:8, Romans 6:22-23, Isaiah 54:6, Galatians 5:24
This video helped me man thanks brother, I'm going through hardship this summer I'm pretty sure but I got remembered this will help with my relationship with our Lord.
Alright so a couple of hours ago I spoke with God about my 1% doubt of His existence. I told Him I believe He exists but I hate that I have doubt He does, even if very small. Fast forward to right now, He leads me to your video. On top of that, Chris Pratt happens to be my favorite actor of all time, especially because of his faith despite his fame and fortune. Man, God is ALWAYS listening. Amen.

hey, I'd like too add my two cents in the idea of hardships that I faced, and still facing to this day that make me believe even more in our Lord Jesus Christ and God. I'm an addict, I used cocaine for 5 years in a roll, been clean for 2 months now, and why I'm clean you may ask, 'cause I found a rosary that no one in my family knows how it was in my stuff, and since I've found it I went back to church, catholic, with my loving grandma and I made a promise to never use coke again. I was literally saved by a miracle from God, a calling that he showed me and I'm proud to say that God is there for everyone, he's our saviour.

I was shot and left for dead. In that moment, I had NOTHING. I was dying, and I knew it. Not in a yell, not in a scream, but in a whisper, I talked to God. I said, "Father, I need you now. I need you more than ever. Please help me." After I said those words, I felt The Lord wrap Hos arms around me. He was with me, and I knew it. From that moment on, my mentality went from, "I'm going to die." to "I'm going to live." I overcame (with the love and power of my Lord) a .001% survival rate. I now am also an actor and play for the USA Paralympic Sitting Volleyball team, married with 3 children. God is so good! He is faithful. He's all that matters.

Excellent video! Thank you!
My thing is, why would a God who loves us allow us to doubt He even exists at all? Like my parents if I'm ever in a bad spot will be there to help and comfort me, but with God He gives nothing. And when I ask for any sign to believe in Him.. Nothing. If He does exist, He doesn't care if I believe or not. Doesn't exactly seem like a loving Heavenly Father. I miss being a christian, going to church, being part of the church community, always feeling like I have someone I can talk to, I would thank Him for everything in my life. He felt real. But given everything I've learned, I don't think He is, or ever was.

Hey bro, so to answer your first question, God cares A LOT that you believe in Him. Just look at John 4:23, 24. When you ask God to give you a sign, you need to keep your eyes open because his sign probably won't come in the way you're expecting. Also about the bad spot thing, God is always there for you. I know how you feel, its like sometimes when you get into that bad spot, you just feel like God forgot about your or just doesn't care right? Well, He does, He cares so much he sent his one and only son to DIE for you, to pay the price for salvation. Remember that when you feel lonely. While God may not be here physically with you, he is in spirit. Whenever you feel depressed, sad or down, pray, its what I do. Ask God to help you. Your doubt might make you think that 'oh God won't care for me anymore because I stopped believing' but thats the opposite, he cares more than we could ever imagine for you. Also this is a hard situation you're having, I feel you. Feel free to reach out to me if you want to. But PLEASE, don't go through this alone.

He said " it is a wicked generation that demands a sign " he has left so many signs and miracles to not believe in him. Just look at nature, the sunset, other humans. People want to say that was an accident, there's 0 chance of that, beauty doesn't come from chance, and he left us the Bible with all we could need to know. As well as what I've learned is that when I demand stuff I get nothing, but, if I choose to believe and trust him for what I don't know, that's when I feel closest to Him, at my lowest and most unsure. It's that Act of trust and holding on that pulls me to Him.

Stay strong brother, you got this
The way to have unshakeable faith is if we believe God sent His son and if we believe that was an act of love. We come to Christ by responding rightly to that sacrifice by giving our lives in return. Yes hardship does produce endurance and perseverance, but what really helps one draw closer the most is reading His word and getting to know His character. If we have been saved in Christ, we have the ability through the Holy Spirit to become more Holy in our own character. When we do this and when we pray along with it is when we see Gods hand in everything. It is not an act of God if it is a miracle or some answered prayer. God is sovereign over everything. This way of learning more about Him and asking to come to know Him is how you come to see why God does the things He does so that you come to see His work in your own life. Hardship and miracles should not be treated as proof that God is real. Those things strengthen already existing faith, but should not be proof of faith or of God. Love is proof that God is real for love is of God and from God. He loved us first so we could love like He does. 1 John 4:7-15 "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love. By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us. By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit. We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God."

Jesus is GOD. AMEN. Psalms 139:1-24 NKJV [1] O Lord, You have searched me and known me. [2] You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off. [3] You comprehend my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways. [4] For there is not a word on my tongue, But behold, O Lord, You know it altogether. [5] You have hedged me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me. [6] Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is high, I cannot attain it. [7] Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? [8] If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there. [9] If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, [10] Even there Your hand shall lead me, And Your right hand shall hold me. [11] If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall on me,” Even the night shall be light about me; [12] Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You, But the night shines as the day; The darkness and the light are both alike to You. [13] For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. [14] I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well. [15] My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. [16] Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them. [17] How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! [18] If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake, I am still with You. [19] Oh, that You would slay the wicked, O God! Depart from me, therefore, you bloodthirsty men. [20] For they speak against You wickedly; Your enemies take Your name in vain. [21] Do I not hate them, O Lord, who hate You? And do I not loathe those who rise up against You? [22] I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them my enemies. [23] Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; [24] And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting. bible.com/bible/114/psa.139.1-24.NKJV

This is what he wants you to feel, he wants you to be seperate from God. But just by you worrying about this, I am sure you aren't the anti-christ and that the holy spirit is working inside of you. The best thing to do is to start meditating, so you can detach from your thoughts, remember these are jus thoughts and know that God loves you.
