Hi, I'm a newly converted Christian. I was wondering if any of you could help me on how I can become a true Christian, rather than just believing (I mean things like worship). Any particular I can do, rather than Sunday Church and Reading the Bible (Which I have already started to do).

Thanks, in return!

Get back to us when you finish up commiting the Bible to memory. Have a nice summer


Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

Hi there!

I hope your name isn't a reference to having a bowel movement (bm) in Mineshaft, that 8-bit Satanic computer game.

Because that would be disgusting. And probably painful.

Getting back to the matter at hand--your salvation--Brother Hutchins is right on the money.

You see, sinning is, quite simply, disobeying any of God's Commands. Any sin is adequate to ensure your entry into God's Lake of Fire.

How can you obey God if you don't know His Commands?

Right now, you're probably getting a bit worried. You could be sinning right now, and not even know it!

Here's what to do:

Read the Bible. Take copious notes. Write down every Commandment; you can't just live by the Ten Commandments (which is technically eleven, as you will see if you write them all down each of the three times they are presented as Ten)! There are over 600!

Also, make notes about the stories in the Bible, and the messages you see. What do they teach you about God?

You will find, as I did, that gradually you get to know the Truth about God and Jesus. Let me tell you friend, that will be a glorious day! I remember the day it all fell into place for me. My eyes were opened. I felt so free, so alive! I no longer worried about finding myself in Hell. Then, and now, I know exactly what will happen to me when I die, and I don't even give it a second thought anymore.

Can you say the same?

Now, I realize the Bible may seem a bit daunting. Especially when you get to Numbers, much of which is genealogies. For your first time through, I suggest skimming over the begats, but don't skip the whole book of Numbers. There are some important stories buried in the begatting. Like the story of the Midianites! That's one of my favorites, it teaches Godly justice.

You may want help with your Bible study. I have good news! By using the links in my signature, you can access the Bible in a Year section of this very forum, and read along with Landover's Brother V. You can join the discussion or just read what others have said. Or, check out Real Bible Stories, which is geared more toward Bible beginners.

Best of all, use both of these great resources as you study your King James Bible!

Let us know how we can help you in your growing understanding of God and Jesus.


Bible boring? Nonsense!

In addition to what was posted above, if you currently are gay, eat shrimp, where cotton with linen or wool, grow a field of mixed crops, eat ham or bacon, graze cattle with goats, or touch women (even platonically) when they are having their periods, you should stop immediately!

Also, if you've ever blasphemed the Holy Spirit, that's a real non-starter. If you've done that, you can't be saved.

Nice to meet you by the way!

Make sure you don't skimp over anything - we will test whether you are telling the truth!!

1 John 2:22
Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

Wonderful!

Take notes on the various stories that you read, especially in the Gospels and Acts. Write down what the story tells you about Jesus and about God, and write down any questions you have so we can help you understand better.

We will be happy to help!

Rebuking sinners is a good start. Remember the words of the Apostle Paul: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20

Tithing is also important. Remember, you're not giving 10% of your earnings to other people, but to Jesus himself. So don't be stingy!
