i feel drawn towards god and i have heard alot about being a born again christian, but i don't really know where to begin
i have had a lot of bad things happen in my life and i do put that down to the fact that i used to deal with tarot cards and the likes and i have now come to realise that they are the work of the devil...i also have a lot of dreams that do come true and people are telling me that is because i am a physic but i don't want to believe that it is the work of the devil but more tha act of god trying to give me his message in some way. please can some one give me some advice i want to find god again but i don't kno where to begin
may i just add that i was brought up as a catholic and there were a lot of issues that i didn't like i stepped back from faith b'cos of it as my mum was catholic (she brought me up) and my father is a protesant so i rebelled against them for trying to force me into each religion please help i dont know where to turn

If you repent God will forgive you for all that you have done
But you have to be ready and willing to let Him lead your life
Just take your time and read the Bible and ask someone you trust to help you on somethings that you may not understand
May your soul find what it seeks
Gods Speed to you and yours

Hi, i completely understand your feelings, as i am at the similar stage now. However, i was brought up as an atheist. Please forget all about devil, he does not exist, its only bad human deeds or negative emotions, nothing else. Your psychic abilities are a gift and you must use them for the Highest Good of all. If you can, try to help someone by using them, im 100% sure it is not a sin. Than, try to learn about different religions. Look here: www.religioustolerance.org and read about various religions and than decide wether you like some of them. Than read books and meet people who practise them. Meditate and ask God to lead you to the right religion for you.
Love and Light

The Holy Spirit is working through you. First, start reading your Bible and pray about it, God does answer prays. Repent, ask for forgiveness, and ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart. Find a church that you feel comfortable in, a Sunday school class is always a good place because you can spend time with people your own age and learn about God and Jesus Christ, there you get to ask questions and really find out about the Bible.

A born again Christian... that's what I am. I must tell you, I love it! I don't know where.... wait, I DO know where I'd be... had I not asked the Lord to save me. This is one decision you will not regret if you choose to make it. I pray that you will.
You want to know where to begin? Here ya go!
1. "Before we can begin to see the cross done something for us, we have to see it as something done by us." - unknown
- Christ's death on the cross paid for all the sins we have committed, and will ever commit. All we have to do is realize that we ARE sinners and in need of a Saviour.
2. Cry out to God!
- He is the only One who can save you. Your past does not matter. He loves you and has been waiting for you to call out to Him. Let Him rescue you from Satan's powers! Once you are a born-again Christian, Satan cannot touch you...ever! He is powerless when it comes to the Lord. Jesus' very name makes Satan run away in fear. "Submit yourselves to God, resist the devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:7
3. Once you are saved. That settles it forever!
-You do not have to worry about working to keep your salvation. You now have a personal relationship with the One Who saved you. You don't need a middle-man to talk to and confess all your sins to (a priest).
- If you have any questions email me! rachelbe_7@yahoo.com I would be honored to talk more!
"Our Lord did not ask us to give up the things of earth, but to exchange them for better things."

When I was a child I saw the KING OF KINGS and THE ROBE on t.v. . I was so touched by the life of Christ I prayed day after day that if Christ ever returned to earth during my lifetime that I would not turn a blind eye. God lead me to the Baha'i Faith. Investigate ... it may be what you're looking for.

It is so easy to come back to God.... Simply say, Lord I am sorry for my sins, please forgive me. I want you in my life Lord, I turn my life over to you, come into my heart and help me. I love you and want a relationship with you now and forever. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me and guide me along the way and teach me in Jesus name I pray...amen

Ask not others, look in your heart and know what feels good. You don't need others to feel reassurance.
