reading a few threads on here mainly due to boredom led me to an epiphany that I've had my fun I've dance with the devil you may say but I was baptised and confirmed and recieved the holy spirit before to desert my God forever would be sheer ignorance and foolishness
anyone else who's turned from God and got back into his good books?
I feel I have alot of work to do

I was a Christian at a young age, and prior to rededicating my life to Christ back in February this year, I was living in massive sin, drugs, sex, etc. And was baptized in the Holy Spirit and living for Christ and a follower of Jesus since. :)

In my humble opinion:

posting here won't make you go to heaven

here, people seek answers, but from other people who also seek answers. there is no guarantee that your answer is here.

same goes for the church, for that matter

You cannot die to your old life and become born again into your new life, only to go back to your old life. If this is the case then you never truly died in the first place.

This is very true.

@Aidzz, I suggest you find a church that preaches sound doctrine and attend fellowship and bible studies, make sure you pray everyday and read scripture to strengthen the spirit, because man does not live on bread alone, if you do not receive the word than the spirit will be overcome by the flesh.

It's not logically possible to know Jesus and then reject him, in my opinion. How can you give your life to Him, know Him, love Him, and then reject him? You didn't turn from God, you're hopefully just now meeting him <3 :)

Luke 15, The parable of the lost son.

11 Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.

13 “Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. 14 After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. 15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. 16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.

17 “When he came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! 18 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.’ 20 So he got up and went to his father.

“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.

21 “The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’

22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. 24For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ So they began to celebrate.


In time of weakness and temptation you can turn from the Lord, but know always he will be there when ever you wish to return.

Some people just loose the faith. It's not as children reject Santa at a certain age, they just stopped believing. There are many ways to meet God and do his bidding, your daily actions are much more important than your weekly visit to church.

I was a manicly depressed child who was raised on faith
like all children they will rebel on what they're parents insist on
I've danced with the devil I've seen both sides and I'd like to come back



to all posters I don't think I voiced my question correctly
All I asked was is it possible for God to truely accept you back I feel I've done things that don;t deserve his valuable time
yes I'm truly sorry and would love to pray to him every night again but yeah...

thank you greatly


the only thing I could think of that God would actually not forgive for was accepting Lucifers blood in blasphemous worshipping etc and thankfully they are hard to come by!

cute response I would totally agree but I guess you've never been in my position
when I recieved the holy spirit for the first time it creeped the shit out of me!
was like taking drugs :o
I was scared that there actually was a God and hence actually an 'antiGod' and also a punishment for my lazieness/bad deeds
I was scared of there being so many religious wars and religions that there clearly couldn't be one way of truly worshipping god


excuse my spelling kind fellows and I look forward to your responses <3
