Hello !
I have a question I would like to ask to all Christians here.
First of all, I am a professed Christian, however so far I have been living secularly, constantly indulging in temptations and conforming to the world. Lately things have begun to happen in my life (I start losing interest in things I normally loved to do) and I each passing day I feel a deeper sense of sorrow and loneliness in my heart, this has culminated to the point where I just want to either kill myself or surrender myself fully to God. I hope to do the latter, however right now I find it very challenging to let go of certain things, especially plans for my future and certain possessions I have. I feel that in order to help me surrender I need to know the consequences of following Jesus, not only the goods but also the negatives, otherwise I fear that I will fall to discouragement in my walk with God in the future.
So my question to you all is:
1. What are the pros and cons of following Jesus based on your experiences?
2. What are your main motivation in following Christ?
3. What made you surrender your life to Him?
4. How hard is it to follow Jesus?
5. Will people hate you/will you be lonely as a true Christian?
6. How much pain is there in following Him?
7. Is there anything I can hold on to after surrendering my life and heart to CHrist aart from Christ Himself?
8. Can I lose my salvation after I surrender my life to Him?
9. What should I do after I surrender to Jesus Christ?
10.How do I find the right people/church/community after I become a Christian?
11.How do I find the courage to share my testimony?
Thank you very much for your time and answers, it really means a whole lot to me right now.
Jesus Bless You!
