I can tell you that when I came to Christ it was very scary to give up the control I had over my life for so long, but when you let go. Wow! All is released and you are free for the first time in your life-a new creation of God!

Realize you are testifying to the fact you are going to Hell because you can't find a naturalistic explanation to account for the resurrection data. That increases my faith too. Christianity is falsifiable if you could come up with a naturalistic explanation that fits the data, but you don't. Noone ever has.
If you think about it, you should be able to since this isn't rocket science. It's just simple human psychology that can explaint it away. That shows you it is real. Jesus is God. |

That is the same elation I felt when I gave up the dogmas of Christianity.

You are born physically once, the Bible says you are appointed once to die, and you can become a child of God one time. There is the old creation and the new creation. I am a new creation of God. I was born-again and I can't be born-again again. I can't lose salvation. Once-saved-always-saved. There is nothing that could happen to me or in my life or anything I do that could lose eternal life. I am forever a child of God.

You were never born-again to begin with because once-saved-always-saved. Whatever you were you have just moved from a false Christianity into another false belief system of atheism or whatever, so you can have supernatural conversion experiences by the evil spirit, but it wasn't what I got in Christ through new birth.

Try to read carefully my words, for they are very precise by the Holy Spirit.

Eternal life is not just eternal blessings to be with God but also an ability to know God. I have that. You don't, because you are unwilling to come to the cross as as helpless sinner to receive the Lord Jesus as Savior.
