Christians Do I Deserve To Be With God?

Question

I am a Christian and I mean hardcore Christian.

I have so much faith in Jesus that it flows out of my veins.

However, I am not a good person. I sin alot; and I mean alot.

I lie, steal, cheat, and hurt people. I can't stop it eventhough I know it is bad.

Everytime I sin I ask God for forgiveness. I don't just ask for forgiveness just like that; I am sincere about it.

However, I keep on sinning like hell and I enjoy it as hell. When I am done I ask for forgiveness.

I have a brother that despises me of my conduct. He on the other hand is an unbelievablly good person. He is a saint compared to me being a devil.

The twist is he is not a Christian and he even opposes every religion in this world claiming that religion is the cause of so much suffering in the world.

He says Jesus was just a man and he'll never change his mind.

Well, who cares? I am going to heaven and my brother is going to hell, or atleast he won't be in heaven.

This is a real story.

I know the Bible teaches people to be good, but according real Christians or even Jesus the only thing we need to do is accept Jesus as our saviour and I have done that.

That is why no matter how bad I am or no matter how much I corrupt the Bible I will still go to heaven.

I can be as bad as I want but I sincerely trust in Jesus.

Right?

Answer 1

Do I detect a troll? You're baiting. You've already stated that you're an atheist on a previous question. Is this more evidence of the highly evolved atheist intellect? I beg to differ.

Answer 2

I know someone who is up to the same things that you are and she is convinced that she is a true Christian because she has "easy believism." She misunderstands what "faith alone" means. I suggest that you study the book of first John.

Faith alone does not mean that some believers follow Christ in a life of discipleship, while others do not. The “others” here refers to a separate category of believer known as the “carnal Christian,” a completely unscriptural concept. Believers in the idea of the carnal Christian say that a person may receive Christ as Savior during a time of decision or religious experience, but never manifest any evidence of a changed life. This is a false and dangerous teaching. It provides a convenient excuse for the person who does not want to follow Christ. Such a person is lulled into a false sense of security thinking they have eternal life. The Bible nowhere supports the idea that a true Christian can remain carnal for an entire lifetime. Rather, God’s Word presents only two categories of people, Christians and non-Christians, believers and unbelievers, those who have bowed to the Lordship of Christ and those who have not (see John 3:36; Romans 6:17-18; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 5:18-24; Ephesians 2:1-5; 1 John 1:5-7; 2:3-4).

Answer 3

It is said that no matter how close you may be to God,you still have some pains in life,Just like,no matter how much forgiveness you ask God,or how ever much you claim to be christian.....That will matter the least.Whatever you just described yourself as here is nothing like a very religious person would do.If you love God then you should know that by doing this,it will not make you a christian but devil because that's what devil loves doing,Messing with people's lives.If you help people out in need,or someone in trouble thats what God sees and blesses you for.And God is watching your every step.It's just like you will keep on doing bad then come back regretting it and saying sorry for your sins than again you will do bad which makes no sense and no use of even asking forgivness to God??
Grow up and be more mature man!!!

Answer 4

Sinning and knowing that your sinning is like looking at yourself in the mirror and walking away and forgetting what you look like. Yes God will forgive you, but yo continue to sin and know that your doing wrong is very foolish. Jesus came to this earth to save the unjust. Who are you to judge your brother the bible clearly states how can you judge your brother when you have a hard time judging yourself. Clean yourself up first and then you will be able to help your brother. Being a follower of Christ is not only saying but doing.

Answer 5

Believing in Jesus is not a license to sin. God will not be mocked by feigned devotion. If this is not all a hoax, and I were your brother, then I would be turned off by Christianity also. I believe there is hope for your brother and God is not through with him yet. As for you, you seem to be having so much fun sinning and "corrupting the Bible" that I can't see your Christianity. Just my opinion.

Answer 6

Not right. To truly be a Christian, you must live a Christian life, but fear not. You still can go to Heaven if truly attempt to change your ways. To do this, you need to make a constant effort to stop lying, stealing, cheating, and hurting people. Also, you should look into a support group at your church or one of the facilities that help people to turn their lives around.

I really hope that you will be able to stop. I'll be praying for you.
God Bless.

Answer 7

God may forgive you, but people wont.

Eventually you will suffer for what you have done to others. Chances are you will have someone do dirt to you.

When you turn to God you will not find peace, not because he does not forgive you.

But because you have practiced so much evil, you will not recognize the relief he sends you as relief.

You will feel that God (or someone) is trying to trick you, or otherwise harm you, and you will reject him fully.

In the end you will be your own undoing.

Answer 8

wrong my friend,you first must accept Jesus and truly believe we put our trust and faith in Him we cant change ourself we depend on God for that and when you are born in the spirit you no longer want to sin so you sound like your trolling to me/as for your brother i agree with his thought about religion i think it divides Gods people but i am a follower of Christ that claims no religion(Jesus didnt) and a staunch one at that

Luke 7:36-50

Now one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, so he went to the Pharisee's house and reclined at the table.
37When a woman who had lived a sinful life in that town learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster jar of perfume,
38and as she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them.

39When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, "If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him and what kind of woman she is—that she is a sinner."

40Jesus answered him, "Simon, I have something to tell you."
"Tell me, teacher," he said.

41"Two men owed money to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii,[a] and the other fifty. 42Neither of them had the money to pay him back, so he canceled the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?"

43Simon replied, "I suppose the one who had the bigger debt canceled."
"You have judged correctly," Jesus said.

44Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet, but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.
45You did not give me a kiss, but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet.
46You did not put oil on my head, but she has poured perfume on my feet. 47Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—for she loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little."

48Then Jesus said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."

49The other guests began to say among themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?"

50Jesus said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you; go in peace."

Answer 10

Why don't you study God's Word, not just read it, then since you say you are a Christian, you should be able to answer the question yourself.
