Jesus died for us meaning he opened the gates of heaven meaning that we now have the chance too go to heaven but on judgment we could be going to hell if we don’t belive in Christ but rather follow the world .and that’ it is a hard life as a believer and that you have to strive to the narrow gate and that you have to give your best and all that idk what to do anymore I feel angry ignored i mean god hasn’t talk in decades maybe and every Christian tells me to wake up to repent and I am freaking tired and then a person tells me I am doing a works based salvation what the actual heck iam I supposed to do when everybody tells me ,,do this ,,do this,, this is what your doing wrong,, ,,this is why you haven’t heard from god,, ,,your a lukewarm,, and idk what do I can’t find rest like this is so annoying to me I don’t understand it anymore like what the heck what balance balance where how I am I supposed to find balance I am between to sides either way I am not pleasing god so what I am I actually doing I am always doing something wrong always first it’s I am giving my all to show my love for god wathcing videos that could maybe explain signs ,, this is why your not walking forward with god,, then going to church,m only listening to worship music ,, only wathcing Christian shows doing the most loving my neighbour ,,being faithful ,, and still hearing nothing from god is driving me crazy making be believe I am talking to myself ,, and then I get burned out because people tell me to put in the effort to deny my flesh ,repent,be reborn, all those things and I try to catch then all and I try and read the Bible wanting to know more having a deep desire for god trying to keep it all together because it says iff yiu love me keep my commends ,, but I am trying not to break them walking of freaking egg shells and what happens iff i sin and never actually repented there so many diffrent opinions on what repentance is try finding an in a sack full of them I am tired and no I don’t have a online community idk how fellow ship works I don’t have anybody not a pastor a preacher
I'm just going to let you know- you're trying too hard. And no one should tell you how to have your relationship with God. That is just you and him. If you feel like he's ignoring you, maybe you should pray about it. His voice is often hard to discern, so you may have heard it without realizing. It could just be a thought that encouraged you or tells you to do something good. Another thing- you don't have to worry about trying to be good and perfect, because for one, you can't be perfect, and two, God does not expect you to be. He is proud of where you are already and you don't have to try to prove yourself to him. Whatever you are going through, just know that you are not alone. There are so many others who are struggling with problems in this world and it looks like there is no solution. I'm not going to tell you how to live your life, and God isn't trying to control your every move and have control over your whole life. All he wants is just for you to trust that everything that happens in your life is leading you to be the best version of yourself you can be.
Are they saying those for love, or are they saying those to make themselfes look better? Talk to them. Talk to them how you are doing a works only salvation, exolain your scenarios on what you have done for the Lord. Remember, the point of that conversation is to improve your relation with Christ. What other reason should they be doing that other than love? Their attitude should show the true intension. Pray. Pray to the Lord to guide you, to enlight you, to show ways to improve. Because the Lord draws closer to those who draw nearer to him. But if a deaf man asks to another man to speak up, will he be able to hear the man? Thats why its also important to identify his voice. Of course its not easy and requires patience, but will really help!! The objective is the same, to be closer to Jesus. Even if its a thought it matters! Having a conversation really helps! Stay strong man. Stay faithful, that one day every action you made, every thought, every second spend will be all worth it! Even if you fail, Jesus greets you with open hand! God bless you and i’ll pray for you!
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
Want a deeper explanation?
God bless you! So calm down! Stand still listen, feel! What do you feel? What do you hear? Anything? If not let’s start from the beginning! Do you believe God/Jesus came here in the form or a man born of a virgin? Do you believe He died on a cross and came back to life on the third day? Ok if yes let’s go on, do you talk to Him? Do you listen for Him answer? If you’re not sure of His voice yet write down what you think you hear. You can look back at what you wrote in decipher if it was Him or not. Even the devil believes but he doesn’t have a relationship with Him! That’s key! How do you have a true relationship? You talk with Him about everything! Like a best friend! He’s always there and He always talks! We just are too busy to give Him the time! He wants a relationship with you! It’s up to you how close you want to be to Him! Because He is as close as your breath! He loves you and respects you ! So He won’t push He gives you the choice!
