Light skin you dont need to worry about my theological beliefs. I have done my research on this subject and I believe I have found the truth even though others dont believe it's true. Thanks for your kind response.
I believe this is true christianity even though a multitude disagree with me. But the Lord is with me showing me the truth and I will listen to him.
I just want to add something to my message. When I came to these truths I found, it wasnt because I wanted to follow a bunch of theological ideas. It was because I was searching for the truth comparing what I was taught in OSAS to the bible. So when I was looking for the truth I didn't think about theology. I didnt even know much about it. But years down the track I was doing some research about the truths I found. I compared OSAS to scriptures In my bible and could see they didnt match up. Also when in OSAS I always felt confused about what I believed and couldn't make sense about how I could be free from sin, because the beliefs I applied from OSAS didnt help me change or be like christ. I also couldn't understand why the holy spirit didnt deliver me from my sins for years while in OSAS. So this is how I changed gospels.
My mother found the website evangelical outreach because she couldn't understand why my father was a OSAS Christian, stopped using drugs. Then started using drugs turned from God and didnt want to know God anymore. So my mother was confused. If my husband is guaranteed salvation why doesn't he want to be a Christian anymore. So she was asking questions, I was asking questions and the answer we both found is OSAS isnt biblical.
So many may say I am deceived but I just cant follow OSAS anymore. Because to me I couldn't find the solution of how to change. I was In despair looking for a way out. While in OSAS people would make out like I was okay with God without following his will. One day I read my bible and it convicted me, so I threw it across my bedroom in anger. I wasnt okay living In sin and being a Christian. I was confused and messed up. I also thought it was ok to get in a relationship with a Muslim. But I was convicted that it was wrong, but I still ignored God and Got consequences for it. I never preached the gospel in OSAS. I never had a desire too. My favorite preachers were David Wilkinson, Carter Conlin and Dr Charles Stanley- I found out Dr Charles standley says weeping and nashing are In heaven. I felt church was nothing but a social club and most the sermons I listened to were boring and alot didn't even make sense. I couldn't wait for the church services to finish. Right now I do not attend church, the only person I have to fellowship is my mother because I said goodbye to all my OSAS friends a few years ago. I just felt like God wasn't in these Churches. How can I come back to such a belief system where I felt no peace. Many will say how can you say you have no peace with guaranteed salvation. Well I needed to be free from my sins, and I would cry constantly, feeling like I just didnt want to live against God, but I felt helpless. All my decisions against Gods will were having an impact on my life. The consequences I had for so many things, would shock some people. I actually shouldn't be alive because of the many dangerous situations I put my self in. So this is why I see the importance of HOLY LIVING because I have seen the consequences of UNHOLY LIVING. When you do so many wrong things you start to feel like a horrible person. When I Obey God, my life is more peaceful. Not too say I dont still have problems but if I didn't care about any of the bible. Right now I would probably be
*In an abusive relationship.
*Prison
*Dead
*Mental hospital
Because in my life i have had alot of problems and I would find others with the same problems. These people are not In a good place right now.
So the reason I have stayed out of alot of trouble so far is because I am trying to apply the bible to my life.
This doesn't mean I haven't had temptations to fall into sin. There are moments when I have stumbled and fallen. But I just try again, with the help of God. Do I think I will lose my salvation all the time NO. I dont think that. I just believe we need to live in accordance with Gods word. Because I have seen the consequences of not following his word.
You can get yourself into situations you wish you never entered.
