Question

How do I seek forgiveness from Jesus?

Community Answer

You just ask for forgiveness, like you would from another person you'd offended. Close your eyes, get someplace quiet to pray, and talk to him. Tell him what you did, why you think you did it, and acknowledge that it was wrong. Pray for forgiveness and help to be and do better next time.

Question

I've been a Christian for 10 years, but I am not able to leave my worldly lifestyle. How can I be a good religious person?

Community Answer

Pray about it, ask God for help. Resist worldly temptations, recite scripture to help you with this. Ask some Christian friends or a pastor to pray with you, and spend your time with them instead of anybody who might be a bad influence.

Question

I really want Jesus in my life, and I want to repent with all of my heart, but I keep failing back into sin. How can I stop?

You don't have to be at a perfect, sinless time in your life to accept Jesus as your savior. If you truly believe that Jesus died on the cross for sins, and ask Him to forgive you, you are saved.

Question

I love Jesus but how can I give up drinking and smoking?

Community Answer

These are common addictions and it is difficult to stop them. You can pray to God and ask Him to help you with these addictions; you can also go to a pastor and ask help from them; the pastor might know a good way to try to get over these problems, or he could suggest someone for you.

Keep reading the Bible. Jesus knows you are a sinner. In fact, all of us in this world are sinners! Don't let that stop you from finding Jesus. Read the Bible, pray to God, attend a Church, etc.

Question

I always ask God for a sign of acknowledgement. How or when could I hear God either speak to me or give me a sign?

Community Answer

If you ask God for courage, he doesn't just give it to you, he gives you an opportunity to be courageous. If you ask God for patience, he may not just give it to you, he will give you a chance to be patient. Sometimes when you ask God for something the answer may be no. Just be patient, it may take time for him to answer by putting you in a situation down the road. Just open up your heart and give yourself totally over to him; he will send the Holy Spirit to lead you and guide you in the direction he wants you to go in. No matter what happens, always keep the faith.

Question

What can I do for Jesus that my Muslim family won't know about?

Community Answer

You need to accept that Jesus isn't part of your family's religion. You need to tell your family that you have moved to Christianity or even move away from your family if they cannot be tolerant of your faith choice.

Overcome temptation by putting God first. I always try to remember God is my Father who loves me and wants the best for me. Also, I think a lot of sowing and reaping. With every decision and action, I think what seeds I am sowing in my life and what will I reap from the choice I made.

Question

How can I know Jesus is with me when I don't feel the presence of the Holy Spirit?

Community Answer

Everyone has part of the Holy Spirit - it is just a matter of your being able to notice and feel its presence. You can access its presence through the Bible, worship (including music, dance, community, etc), and prayer. Jesus is always present, because He loves each and every one of us - almost like a parent who always lovingly watches everything their child is doing. Know also that the things you do because of your faith, like praying, attending church, volunteering, etc, are as important for you as they are for Him.
