Oh for peets sake. Just let me be who i want to be... I was a child of god. I got lost because of depression. Because of an alcoholic father doing thing to my. A sister who i thought never loved me. Death of so many loved ones. Guys who took advantage of me. Im not gonna explain my perception of when i was saved... And how and where and why. The most important thing for me right now is to get saved again. Getting the support i need. You dont deserve my explanation because my relationship with MY HEAVENLY FATHER is between me and Him. So forgive me for trying to fit in here. Because i clearly dont. But that doest mean i wil stop trying. So i wil end with this. I respect your opinion and i dont judge anything you have to say think or feel. Good night to all. Let go and let GOD!

Honey read my threads. I've had depression for probably even longer than you've been alive. :) I DID let go and let God bring me out of all my trials. As long as you keep this lousy poor-me concept of yourself, you will remain lost. No one is telling you to stop trying. I specifically told you not to give up.. :) You will get plenty of support on this site, but you need to lose the self-pity that comes through in your posts. Have you contacted anyone about finally getting saved? You can't say "saved AGAIN" because you haven't been saved YET. Baptism at birth does not mean you were saved at birth. It only means you got baptized because your PARENTS wanted you baptized. Baptism doesn't save, and anybody in the bible forum here will tell you that. Accepting Jesus as your Savior, DOES save you. Now that you're an adult, you are aware enough of what it takes to be saved, and you're able to say, "Jesus I accept you as Lord and Savior". :) Simple as that.
 
I didn't mean to give up on God or life, but give up on this conversation. giving up on defending myself and MY believes... I am allowed to see myself as born Christian just as you are believed that you weren't... end of conversation. thank you and God bless
 
I am not on self-pity mode blue... I am well aware of what it means to be saved. well aware what it takes to be saved. I was at a bible camp a few years ago. I gave my heart that day. was saved... but I got lost again... it happens. and I never said my depression is more important than yours. it will never be. because we all are equal. we all are equal in God's eyes. I've given myself to God a few days ago. im new at this. and I truly am happy now. so I apologize if I came across as pitying myself or as aggressive... its a bad habit of mine. so please forgive me. and have a blessed day and good luck with all you take on. :)

Suzie you have no call to ask a question and then be angry when people answer. According to the Bible one cannot be born a Christian. If you believe this,you are mistaken. Being angry will solve nothing.If you dont want the answer to your question then why did you ask? People are trying to help you and you reject it. It really makes no sense.

​To the OP, your profile states you've been a christian since you were born. That's impossible. You have to be saved to be a christian, and babies don't have the cognitive ability to know what a christian is or how to get saved until they're of an age old enough to understand and accept God on their own..

I understand what she's meaning. She's never not believed in God. It's like me for instance I have never doubted that God was there or never had that moment of " I would like to be a christian" because I've always been a christian for as long as I can remember. Our parents dedicate us usually or we are born into a christian household and taught that way. However I did become born again acknowledging that Jesus died for my sins and I received the holy spirit. This was what I wanted and this is what every person needs to do to become born again to receive the holy spirit. It's a decision we obviously all have to make for ourselves.

The sinner's prayer?
Click to expand...
Hi suzie,
This is often whats called sinner's prayer. I also want to say hi and welcome.

Please note: The Salvation Prayer (sometimes referred to as the Sinner’s Prayer) below, is not an “official prayer” but rather a sample prayer to follow when asking Jesus into your heart. You can pray to God in your own words if you choose.Regarding the location of the Sinner’s Prayer in the Bible? Well, there isn’t one mentioned; it is only implied. The basis of the Sinner’s Prayer comes from Romans 10:9-10. “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”[h=1]SALVATION PRAYER[/h]Dear God in heaven, I come to you in the name of Jesus. I acknowledge to You that I am a sinner, and I am sorry for my sins and the life that I have lived; I need your forgiveness.I believe that your only begotten Son Jesus Christ shed His precious blood on the cross at Calvary and died for my sins, and I am now willing to turn from my sin.You said in Your Holy Word, Romans 10:9 that if we confess the Lord our God and believe in our hearts that God raised Jesus from the dead, we shall be saved.Right now I confess Jesus as the Lord of my soul. With my heart, I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead. This very moment I accept Jesus Christ as my own personal Savior and according to His Word, right now I am saved.Thank you Jesus for your unlimited grace which has saved me from my sins. I thank you Jesus that your grace never leads to license, but rather it always leads to repentance. Therefore Lord Jesus transform my life so that I may bring glory and honor to you alone and not to myself.Thank you Jesus for dying for me and giving me eternal life. AMEN.
 
Thank you mar09 for sharing and filling me in. Have a blessed day and weekend.
 
I would like to state this to you blue lady...
Psalm 22 verse 10I was cast on You from birth; You are my God from my mother’s womb.
I was a christian even before i was born. Psalm 22 is one of my facourites. It describes my life and predicts my future...
 
Suzie, it is impossible to be a christian BEFORE you are born. It is also impossible to be a christian at the moment of birth. A person needs to be cognizant enough to have knowlege of what a christian is, what it takes to be saved, AND they have to be able to declare with their own mouth, that they accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior, and that they believe He died for their sins. Why can't you understand that a baby is NOT aware enough to accept Jesus at birth?

Psalm 22 is referring to David, not you. The bible DOES NOT predict ANYONE'S future. You say you went to a bible camp and got saved? Did you get baptized there? Did you accept Jesus as your lord and savior? We all get lost at times in our walk with God. If you are truly already saved, then just seek him and you will find him. :)
 
There is no sinners prayer in the Bible.. Stop it.. And it is possible bc God said before I formed you I knew you.. Did she understand, no.. Has nothing to do with who she was.... Self taught, following ridiculous notions made by people.. Honey inbox me if you want real advice.. These people can be as cruel as the enemy bc their hearts are not surrendered..
