      That scripture is my only hope.
      (Philippians 1:6)
      I love Jesus, but have struggled mightily with life in general... and with sin. I am an autistic man, since birth. The world tells me that being autistic is a blessing. I feel just the opposite. My autism makes verbal communication extremely difficult. I rethink much of what I say and do. I have no confidence in myself because of this fault. I struggle mightily with sensory input. I have many quirks (like stimming) which make most people reject me. I have been married and divorced twice and will never do that again. I live alone. Insanely lonely (in spite of preferring fewer than more people in my life). The pandemic has not helped. I feel like the sick man at the pool of Bethesda. If only I could touch Jesus. I see stray dogs on the street getting better treatment than I do. Sorry for this long rant. I am crying out for help and love from the Christian community. I cannot find it. Nothing but a little pat on the shoulder and "I will pray for you". That and rejection.
      Perhaps if I had not been trying so hard most of my life to fit in (that's a mountain of hard work for an autistic person, and I am worn out because of it), I would be in a better place.
      About a year ago I finally came to grips with my autistic diagnosis (high functioning) of 27 years ago. It changed my world as the previous life I was living, out of necessity to hold a job, was a lie. I finally took the mask off. I now allow myself to be autistic. I no longer try to hide it. I allow myself to stim at home, and occasionally in public. Never used to do this. Anyhow. My life is nearing it's end and I want to find Jesus in a bigger way. I want to be healed of this complicated mess that is my life. Am I saved? I do not know. I have hope that I am. I talk to Him always (today that is all I did all day). I read His word. I love people. But I am in deep emotional pain. I have been targeted and terrorized by a very evil man who lives next door to me as well. The terror is so egregious that nobody even believes me, not my family or police. I am to the point where death sounds so much more attractive than life. This post is my (likely last) cry for help. If only I could touch Jesus. Love you all.

      @@tobystevens9183 most assuredly your last cry for help will be the day we meet JESUS in person, I pray that you are here when he returns (which will be amazing) and I believe it will be soon. That passage that you named shouldn't be your only hope but rather a brazen confidence in salvation, take ALL of the promises made and raise your hopes to the highest.

      Hey man one of the greatest men in the bible was David and he always sought the Lord. So we too and you too must seek God everyday. Its not that you are not saved its that you want intimacy with Him. Acts 17:27 "that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us"

      Psalms 78:2
      I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old: Exodus 16:34
      As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept. Proverbs 23:23
      Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. Malachi 3:16
      Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name. Joel 2:28
      And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 1 Timothy 6:12
      Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Luke 13:3
      I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Matthew 25:9
      But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. Jude 1:3
      Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. Revelation 6:8
      And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. Jeremiah 8:6
      I hearkened and heard, but they spake not aright: no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one turned to his course, as the horse rusheth into the battle. Genesis 1:2
      And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Proverbs 7:4
      Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman: Job 5:24
      And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin. Daniel 3:29
      Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort. Mark 9:47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. 2 Peter
      Chapter 1 5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

      @jonney tango yes that’s completely correct in that all have broken Gods commandments, the law was to show us how sinful we are and that we could never be perfect in Gods eyes by trying to follow the law, that’s why we need a saviour, Jesus Christ is that saviour and there is no other way to the father but faith alone in Jesus Christ as our saviour, you say the bible is false? There is so much evidence from as early as when the New Testament was written to completely say it is the true word of God and just saying because it was translated into English it became false is so far from the truth, there are only minor differences from the original Greek, nothing that takes away the true meaning of the gospel of Jesus, I hope you can see this one day

    So many Christians seem to preach, arrogantly and selfishly, the very opposite. Are you an alcoholic? "Well you better get sober and clean *BEFORE* you come to Jesus because if you willingly sin *AFTERWARDS* it all goes down the toilet and you will burn in hell forever..."
    I'm so thankful Jesus personally found me and called me in. If you are reading this, put your full faith in HIS work. Accept His sacrifice. God knows the intention of your heart. Don't listen to those who would take the name of Jesus in vanity.

    If you believe in Jesus Christ, you are saved and will go to Heaven one day. If you don't believe in Jesus Christ, you are not saved and will go to Hell one day.

      I will pray for you, but you must be honest with the Lord and he will direct your path. Don't be afraid of the Bible. Remember that God wants to save you but you must believe that he does. Believe that he loves you. I pray you'll continue seeking him sincerely.

    True, if we love God we will obey His commandments.
    Thankfully we aren't saved by loving God but rather because He first loved us and gave himself for us.
    The only reason anyone will ever be in Heaven is solely by the shed blood, death, burial, and resurrection, of Jesus Christ Alone.
    Our good works, repenting of sins, and obedience, are solely for rewards in Heaven or a lack thereof and have absolutely nothing to do with salvation at all.
    Salvation is absolutely free.
    Rewards are worked for!

      Salvation is absolutely free, as you say.
      But repentance is required. Without there is no possibility of going to heaven. Repentance is not works. It is a change of mind about our retched state (that we need God), AND turn around back to Him.
      Repent, believe and be saved.

      @@tobystevens9183 The only repentance that saves is admitting that you are a hopelessly lost sinner and turn (repent) from whatever you trusted in before and trust Jesus Christ as your only hope of getting to Heaven.
      When you have believed on Christ alone for salvation then you have repented unto life.

    If all is decided upon by God then we have no free-will.. We decide to believe ! God knows the future. Otherwise He cannot know when the end will come. Jesus said of the end times only "The Father knows". If Jesus lied concerning the question his whole ministry is void !

    Yes God loves us freely but not the people!!! He doesn’t shun us. Because if He shuns us then we are screwed. There’s no hope anywhere. Like Jordan Peterson said that most people are useless and horrible. I think we are all useless and horrible. Most people are mother f.uckers. Hosea 14:4 is a message of healing and hope. Nobody wants the stupid harsh preaching when they are broken and hurt. Healing takes time. Forgiveness is a process just like healing. 🇺🇸 🇮🇱

    You can only "backslide" if you are under some form of law. You must be on a scale to slide forward and back. Christians are not under the law. God no longer counts our sins against us. When a Christian sins, they can thank God that their sin no longer separates them from Him. Therefore, they can confidently approach God, receiving His grace and mercy which will help identify why they weren't trusting God when they sinned. That is grace, not law.

    Why would a Calvinist minister preach a message to backsliders? Sounds contradictory. If Once Saved Always Saved is true, then why encourage backsliders to return to the Lord. After all, the backsliders can’t lose their salvation, right?

    Where is that love of God for ME?
    Well, Jesus has turned His back on ME!!!
    If I renounced Jesus, a second time, BUT THIS TIME did so so vindictively angrily, against a slight plea to NOT DO SO, (but I did so anyway), and felt Him kinda leave me. SOMETHING left...
    Can I come back to Christ?
    I have been begging for 2 years now, for Jesus to forgive me that one @#@@ing sin.
    JESUS WILL NOT @#$$ING FORGIVE ME!!!!
    Do you know anyone who went thru anything like I am going thru, that EVENTUALLY the brick wall was knocked down so he could get back to Jesus, or should I just give up? Why is God not @#$ing killing me if I HAVE committed the unpardonable sin unto death?
    Yes, I repetitively sinned. I always ended up sweetly repenting, getting angry again, and repenting, like a roller coaster. Once I renounced Him, felt that gift leave, repented, and He came back, BUT NOT THIS SECOND TIME, and yet...
    Before the first time I renounced Him - and meant it - when I ran back to Jesus, I felt the calm, loving thought immediately after I repented, "You're not getting rid of me." So, I say to you, if Jesus does NOT take me back, He lied to me. Told His very first lie EVER... to me.
    I am sick of this torment! I WILL @#$ing kill myself if Jesus doesn't come back. He's not answering my @#$ing prayers for reassurance I AM NOT hopeless. He is dangling hope of restoration over my head like a carrot. Why?
    Does Jesus hate and mock me that much? I remember feeling Jesus saying to me, one night, "I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU, you filthy wretch!"
    "I HATE YOU!" over and over again, until I asked Him to save the torment till after I died, and it stopped. Is THAT proof Jesus OW NO LONGER LOVES ME, that I am reprobate?Unfortunately, God gave me up and gave up on me. Why?
