Sounds like you only believe because of Pascal's Wager.
Which... Isn't a sincere belief. Based on the character of most god claims, this sort of belief would not get you into their heaven.

I would advise spending some time listening to I responses to Pascal's Wager. They should help you lose this fear.

“Worshipping” just because you’re afraid of the consequences of not worshipping is not worship. Hate to say it, but you’re just lying to yourself.

God judges the heart (1 Samuel 16:7) and knows our motives.

Plus, it sounds like you (like many people) don’t actually know what heaven is - like you’ve just taken your definition of heaven from people who’ve never been there. Check out John 17:3 and Genesis 15:1.

Happy hunting!

So why do you Christian’s lie to people “ god can save anybody “ no he can't

[all_hayl]

@Creampiekarl420 Lol. Might want to check your doctrine I can help if needed. Lmk.

Fear of the Lord is Wisdom.
There is nothing new under the sun ☀️

-I would have to say,”yes”. IF you have Not confessed your sin (s), ask Savior and Lord Jesus for forgiveness, and profess that you are His Son/Daughter.
—Do this THEN Fear of the Lord is Wisdom, otherwise, a heart of fear and dead heart meet in the same hell-hole,

[Anonymous]

In the same boat as you. I'm looking forward to answers

[jshm2]

Yes. But that "fear" will develop into understanding and respect over time.

If you just sit in a corner, cowering, then you're just being stupid.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Yes, because your worship is fake at heart. You don't or are unwilling to recognize God's due glory and honor.

Hypocrites won't inherit eternal life with the lord Jesus Christ.

[Creampiekarl420]

Then why do people always say “Christ will change your heart and make you new because he doesn’t”

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@Creampiekarl420: When a person is legitimately born again they receive a new spirit which is called the Holy Spirit which is the spirit of God.

This Spirit influences your mind and thinking and it brings about a new creation in a person (change of character).

The Holy spirit living within with our current falling spirit creates in us a new heart and we being to naturally love the lord and to serve the lord with gladness of heart, but do to our falling nature sometimes its a struggle but the sanctification process is a life long one.

When a person is resurrected into the new earth with a new body the Holy Spirit will 100% possess this person and those feelings that we suffer of not wanting to bringing God glory will no longer exist because our sinful flesh will be done away with.

[Creampiekarl420]

So everyone else is just fucked then

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@Creampiekarl420: Most people are going to hell. It's what Jesus taught. 🤷‍♂️

[Creampiekarl420]

I see why so many commit suicide and murder and steal and rape kids now if you’re going to hell anyways why behave yourself jesus should’ve preached suicide

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@Creampiekarl420: They are going because they are wicked and enemies of God. The unrepentant wicked will not inherit eternal life through Jesus Christ, only the humble and obedient to the lord's will.

[Creampiekarl420]

Why are you pretending like the devil has no influence whatsoever he literally has home field advantage that’s doesn’t change the fact that if god cared he wouldn’t have made people just so they can live a miserable life then go to hell

[Creampiekarl420]

Even the Bible says it’s better to not exist ecclesiastics 4:3

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@Creampiekarl420: The devil has influence but you have a conscience and ears to hear the glorious gospel of the lord Jesus Christ to either accept it or reject it.

[Creampiekarl420]

Can you define your terms what do you mean by accept because most people given the choice will pick heaven for 500 Alex stop trying to make it sound so simple and if it is then explain

[Creampiekarl420]

If you don’t mind

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@Creampiekarl420: It means to repent of your sins, be baptized and put your trust in the saving grace of the lord Jesus Christ and obey God's word. (Bible).

[Creampiekarl420]

Why doesn’t god just prove himself then if he really didn’t want people in hell he would

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@Creampiekarl420: If you can't tell God doesn't exist then I can't help you. I can't explain the obvious.

[Creampiekarl420]

No not exist I mean prove himself and reveal himself if he did that 100% if the population would be Christian and everyone would go to heaven

[Creampiekarl420]

@Hispanic-Cool-Guy do you really think with his infinite power this is the best plan he could come up with if so he must not be that powerful because I could do better hell you could most people with common sense could

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@Creampiekarl420: The Holy Spirit bears witness to the truth of the gospel and Jesus Christ as the Son of God and savior. That's your proof from God to your conscience and heart.

[Creampiekarl420]

@Hispanic-Cool-Guy so good is trying to do the bear minimum because look if he wants to put people in hell I don’t care he just shouldn’t lie like cares about everyone and doesn’t want them in hell because the way things are going there’s a lot of collateral damage in this scooby doo ass scheme of his

[zagor]

That was kind of the basis the Puritans used to get people to comply...

[Agape93]

Nope. God wants fearful supplicants.

[WhitneySnow]

I don’t think so but I’m not sure

Fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
