yea after a hardcore marijuana habit i lost god for a while and stuff.. but i now believe in god again and am living richeously.. but still dont think i have a soul.. like i dont really have a conscience.. and i dont like really feel emotions like i should be.. i dunno its weird.. can anyone help?
 
You are being guided from inside and it seems you are following the Lords whispers. Read some spiritual books and the voice will get louder.
 
If you are unsure about your salvation then:

Repent of your sin and have faith in the life, sacrifice of Jesus, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Then, if you have honestly and truly done that then you are saved by the Blood of Jesus Christ.
 
May I suggest seeing a counselor? Please don't be offended by my suggestion. Many, very normal people sometimes need outside help to identify and solve the difficult problems we sometimes face in life.
 
soul

here is some good news the correct definition according to the scriptures is that the living being whether it is animal of human is the soul itself after the breath of life is supplied we the person are the soul ,the immortality of the soul doctrine is false andthe bible proves otherwise loook at genesis where god creates adam ,adam became a living soul after the breath of life,the immortality of the soul doctrine is against the teachings of christ about his ressurection,if a soul or spirit exists that is immortal [immortal means invincible]then why the need for the ressurection,its like saying that we dont need ressurection because our soul automatically lives on,that is apostate teaching and is insulting to jesus'purpose of dying for us.there this is one subject that will strngthen your faith in god,put your efforts into studying the bible with people that know bible truths.can you imagine some people believe this doctrine and dont bother worshipping god like they are supposed tobecause they were lied to and dont know any better,study the bible in topic form by asking a question and getting it answered with the biblewill help you to recall things in the scriptures and help build your faith in god and help you to be a proper subject of the kingdom of god which is ruled by jesus christ,here is a website http://www.watchtower.com you can ask for a free bible discussion by requesting a visit,they will help you to find things in your bible you did not know even existed and answer all the questions that have perplexed mankind for centuries ex;why are we here,what is the purpose of life,easily answered with the scriptures,you want literature to use with your bible fine,you want just that and no discussion ,fine,you want a study ,fine,they will not intrude upon you against your wishes ,you decide what you want and they will follow your guidelines,these same people use their own money for gas ,their own cars,and their own time,not paid,they are not in any business of any kind,their main purpose is to educate people on bible truths and prophecyand to worship god acceptably,

hmm if this is so then why such violent oppostion to abortion?
 
Hi

You say that you believe in God and are living righteously.

May I ask, what have you done or are doing that helps you come to this conclusion.

Regards
 
hey trans am. best to stay away from stan. jehovahs witnesses are really not even close to evengelical christianity, let alone mainstream.

Dear Stan,
Jesus was crucified, not run through on a pike. There are historical records that testify to that. :smt023

The fact that you're here is already an answered prayer! I have been in your position before, where you don't really feel sorry like you should for the things you've done. . . I prayed. I talked to God just like He was sitting right next to me. I had personal conversations with Him. Not just the standard " Dear Heavenly Father, I pray to start feeling again. Amen". I just simply thought one day that God already knew everything anyway so why not own up to what I've done and confess all my sins to Him. And it honestly worked. It felt so good to finally let it all out to Him!
He knows your soul, He knows your heart, otherwise you wouldn't have showed up here. It also helps to have solid Christian friends to talk to in person. You'd be surprised how many people have similar stories to the ones you have.
If ever you want to talk but don't feel there's anyone in person to go to, feel free to pmessage me anytime. All of us here are on your side!
Good luck to you and you're in my prayers!

God bless!

Man there is nothing like losing touch with God, when you backslide, the Holy Ghost would get with me everytime. At first you can hear the Holy Ghost rebuking you clear as a bell. It is like this, when you first get a big Grandfather clock, you can hear it chime all the time. But after it has been in your house for a while most of the time you don't notice it's chime anymore. So as you stay out there in that fallen state. You stop hearing the voice of the Holy Ghost.
But He is still there you just can't hear Him. I use to pray and say God please don't turn me over to a reprobate mind, that was a big fear of mine. Because I would stay sober for a while sometime a very long time, only to do it again. And I would remember God saying from the Bible, My Spirit shall not always strive with man. There is nothing like getting a beating from God, when you have put your hands to the plow, and then looked back. But He loves us so, that we must be chastised for our wrong doing. And that empty feeling of thinking that you have lost him, is something to behold, because it is the worse feeling that a saved person can have.
 
Heya trans, I don't have all the answers, but I will pray for you. May God continue to draw you near to Him.

Blessings,
Josie

What kind of stuff?


but i now believe in god again and am living richeously..
Why do you believe in god again and who told you that you were living rightously?


but still dont think i have a soul..
So far a soul has never been proven to exist.

like i dont really have a conscience.. and i dont like really feel emotions like i should be.. i dunno its weird.. can anyone help?
This last part is a real concern. You really should talk to a professional. I don't know anything about your backround or upbringing that I can comment on. You may have a physical problem or it may in fact be caused by your drug usage. Only a pro can properly advise you and may I suggest the sooner you get to the bottom of it the sooner you will see results if any are to be had.
 
Hey Rez;

You are just a regular fountain of blossoming sunshine, aren't you?

Josie had the right answer when she admitted she didn't have the answers, or at least not all of them. But she was able to freely offer the one thing she did have: prayer.

Please allow me to declare right here that where T A R is at is where God has stated emphatically that He dwells.
I dwell in a high and lofty place, with him who is of a broken and contrite spirit.
Not only that, but I believe that it is God's joy to honor Josie's and Aimee's humble intercession.

What's more, Jesus said: Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven. And right now, TAR is definitely poor in spirit. What an honor to be in such a place!

But let's go just a bit further. We know that there are times when out of the depths of our spirit, a cry rings out from our hearts:
My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?
And His ready answer is ever:
I have not forsaken you, but in fact I have engraved you on the palms of My hands. How could I forsake you? A hen may forsake her chicks. And a mother may forsake her child, but I will never forsake you. I have loved you with an everlasting love.

There are many prayers going up on your behalf, TAR, and they are taking the form of the smoke of incense in the inner courts of Heaven. The Father finds the aroma to be pleasant in His nostrils.

Don't lose hope. He is by no means finished with you nor has He given up on you. Believe it or not, but we are corrected by our backslidings. In that one point, they serve their purpose. Let it serve it's purpose this time. Learn the lesson and go on to the knowledge of Him.

Just trying to help. thank you very much.

Rez;
I was just being a wise-apple when I said that. It was not intended to be taken all that seriously. It should have made you :D instead of :evil:

Do you need to me to come over there and tickle you til you wet yourself? Don't make me come over there.

You can't lose the Holy Spirit, friend. You either have him or you don't. Jesus said; "I will never abandon you." So if you're not sure if you have the Holy Spirit in you, then keep asking God to show you and he will. :)
