This whole Hebrew Israelite thing had gotten me mixed up and worried lately. Thank you all for helping and replying, but I still don't know what to think. One moment I think I'm good, the next I think I'm a doomed evil gentile. I just have these scary thoughts that Jesus will return and be mad at white people and enslave them and send them to the lake of fire. And then I hear the same people saying Christianity is from a pagan religion and we are brainwashed and the earth is flat. I feel so twisted, could anyone try and provide me some new answers? Sorry

New answers won't help. Find the verses that people here have given you and wrote them down or keep them in your phone. When you begin doubting reread them. OCD is the reason you're unable to take hold of the truth. Make sure you Stay Away from reading or listening to more about that racist agenda and focus on God's written, plain and simple truth.

When Jesus returns, he won't doom all white people, if that is what you are saying. He would not doom a whole race of people because of their skin. He weighs a persons own deeds, not his ancestry or heritage.
Christianity comes from the teachings of saint Paul (if I remember correctly) because he said that we did not have to do all the Jewish rituals.
And I seriously doubt the earth is flat. We are not flying thru space like a frisby lol

You have to stop allowing Satan to torment you like this. The problem is you're lacking faith in Christ new answers won't do anything.

This is another problem though; what if it isn't OCD? What if there is a demon attached? I would only say this (I hope it's not) because this stuff has only started to me recently.

I don't think it's more and more and more of the same answers you need.
I think you need setting free of this anxiety and doubt that you have. See the
following verses.


2 Timothy 1:6-7 NLT
[6] This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you when
I laid my hands on you. [7] For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but
of power, love, and self-discipline.


Why not try praying and following a simple bible plan. Maybe you could read a few
verses each day from Johns gospel and make a note of the verse about what Jesus
has done for you i.e. fan the flames of your faith etc.

Pray for understanding, assurance and prayer into the above verse, speak it over
yourself and choose to believe it whatever doubts may come to mind.
Thats the crux of the matter you can choose to believe what God has said in his world.

John 3:16-17 NKJV
[16] For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever
believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. [17] For God did not send
His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.



Or you can choose to believe the doubts which come into your own mind.
You have to decide which it will be. :) The truth of God's word of those niggly
false unrealiable doubts in your head.

Don't tell God how big your problems are.
Tell your problems how big your God is!

I just went back and looked a little bit at your posting history. Your main problem
seems to be an inability to stay focused on Jesus. You keep trying to figure things
out, what other people mean, what it means for you to do, say, or think something,
when you admit your own understanding is quite flawed, and incomplete. It really
reminds me of the story about two wolves fighting: an evil bad wolf and a good
wolf (is there such a thing? haha, well, it is just a story told to make a point, the
point being) the child being told the story asks, which wolf wins? And he is told,
the wolf that is fed the most wins. In other words, you need to find a way to stop
feeding your fears, and the best way to do that is to focus more on Jesus :)

Lean on Him in all your ways. I know it is not always easy :)


Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.


Easu being hated
does not mean white people are hated at all. God
despised Esau because he gave up his birthright for a bowl of stew.
Esau's twin was Jacob. Jacob was later renamed Israel. The whole
story arc has to do with salvation, which came through Israel :)

Hi Alex, I'd like to encourage you to read only the bible for a while. Don't read opinions of others - read what God says and allow that truth to sink deep within your
soul.

The more you read the gospel writings which is all of the NT actually, - the more you mind becomes transformed. There's power in the written word that feeds your spirit and brings grace upon grace, truth upon truth, mercy upon mercy, lovingkindness upon lovingkindness.

God's love freely flows upon us, even when He disciplines us. But His discipline is motivated by love so that we don't perish with unbelievers.

God's love and promises towards you is yeah and amen!

2 Corinthians 1:20-22 For as many as are the promises of God, in Him they are yes; therefore also through Him is our Amen to the glory of God through us. Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and anointed us is God, who also sealed us and gave us the Spirit in our hearts as a pledge.

Having been born-again, you have been right? God wipes your slate clean and seals you with the Holy Spirit as a pledge for our future life with Him in Glory!

Get into a good bible study and read God's word. Know it like you know nothing else. And don't visit the websites that are throwing doubt your way.

That is the work of the enemy and all you need to do is draw near to God and He'll draw near to you. And then it says as you draw near to God, resisting the enemy that the enemy must flee.

So draw near to God, read His word, praise Him and fill your mind with worshipping Him. What are some of the truths you know in God's
word. How about if you begin to list some of them here in this thread?

I'm so glad Jesus isn't going to weigh my deeds to see if I merit salvation. He may weigh them for other purposes, but His blood covers my deeds.

It is OCD. Demons can't force you to question, only provide you with questions. But since you are unable to get past this, and reflect other OCD traits that only reinforces you having OCD.

Telling someone with OCD they are lacking faith is ignorant and harmful.
