Hello Oakers! how is your week, today's saturday(its 1am) therefore its the weekends now! Hope you guys can relax and chillax out and have fun haha! Ok, my post is to reply to kenneth's post.

Following points:
1) Great post
2) Great to see you excited about God
3) Great to see you have a difference in your mindset from when you're younger till now
4) Great to see you posting in the oak blog

I Agree with most of the points but however i would like to quote this sentence you said in your post which is "when you receive the holy spirit it will never leave you right?(Correct) And when you receive the holy spirit eternal life begins so you will go to heaven right? " (i think this is subjective)

The blasphemy part is correct to my way of interpreting the way of Christianity.

And i also disagree the part which says " And when you receive the holy spirit eternal life begins so you will go to heaven right? "

Because as far as i know, it is easy for one to receive the holy spirit, but, it is difficult for one to continue walking in faith with God and have the holy spirit working in you, me and everyone. IF we are not in close contact with God and we do not have a close relationship with God, to me, the holy spirit is like a dead cell within us and does not work. Father, Spirit and Son the Trinity of God. Through the holy spirit, we will be filled with love by our Father in heaven and his son Jesus. When we are filled with love, we will be able to understand the close relationship we have with God.

21"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' 23Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'

Even though we have the holy spirit in us, it is true that the holy spirit will never leave us but it is not true that we cannot leave the holy spirit. The verse says that not everybody who calls upon the Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven. Which simply states that even though we might have accepted Christ and we might have had the holy spirit in us, we too might not enter the kingdom of heaven. Simply because, in our lives we have done nothing right but sin. Don't you agree? Therefore, even if we might have the holy spirit in us it does not grant us the passport to enter the Kingdom of Heaven for every little sin that you do, you are leaving the holy spirit. No one needs declaration that you're going to leave the holy spirit for your own actions, selfish desires proves to God that you are leaving the holy spirit and therefore we are infact the ones leaving and not the holy spirit leaving. Thus, your statement which says "Holy spirit will never leave" is absolutely true to me.

However, " We will go to heaven" i will disagree with it. Actually, the verse already describes most of it. Many of us proclaim that we are Christians for the fact we go to church weekly and because we prayed for God to enter our lives but the truth is praying for God to enter our lives is only the first minor step we take. What we truly need is a repentant heart to always repent our mistakes and our sins daily and thats what that will bring us to Eternal Life and not because you prayed for the HolySpirit to come into you. Salvation is by Faith and Faith alone in Jesus Christ and Faith alone in God is followed by repentance. I am not sure whether its a mistake in me or in you however i just feel this is what it means to me.=) No Hard Feelings

Next:God loves you but he doesnt allow you to have eternal life even though you may repent?

That is False to me also. Why? Because of earlier what i said. Praying to receive Christ is only the first minor step and in any case does not Grant you to go to Heaven. What grants you is a repentant heart to always lift your mistakes unto God and repent over your sins you do daily. With a repentant heart, you have already managed to get what most people out there are looking for. Therefore, if you repent you will be able to have eternal life. To enter the Kingdom of Heaven we have to understand that:

1) There is no multiple choice in Christianity there isn't because there is only 1 God
2) We have to understand that Jesus is the way the truth and the life and nobody enters the Kingdom of God except through Him!
3) We have to love what God Loves and Hate what God Hates.
4) Summing up a Repentant Heart

With this 4 points i dare not guarantee we can enter the Kingdom of God but it will help us in our Christian walk=)
Lastly, i would like to quote this to you guys
" God cannot hate me cause God is love, but i tell you, God must hate me cause God is Love "

Thats all i have to say.
