Why do christians backslide? I just backslided today for the first time in about 2 weeks i think. I feel terrible about it and i know i just backslided. I think the reason I did was because I feel like I cant live up to Gods high Standards. And I felt for a while that I was very close to god and jesus and still do, I mean I know I am saved but I did the exact same thing i did before i was saved. But the difference is I didnt get any pleasure from it. So i know I am saved but i feel like im not forgiven. And I also felt during that time of being very close to god that I had to retreat from the world leaving old friends and other unbelievers behind to keep from reverting back to my old ways. Someone please help me on this!
