1. Am I good enough to be a Christian?

Satan always tries to condemn and discourage us. A classic whisper of the devil's is to tell us we are not good enough to be Christians. Even non Christians will accuse us of being hypocrites. That is a lie of the devil - you are good enough but not in your own strength. In your own strength you are nothing but now Jesus is in you, you have overcome the world! That is quite a thought, isn't it? 1 John 5:4-5 tells us that an overcomer is one born of God. "Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God."

Once I asked the Lord, "What do you see in me?" He replied, "I don't see you, I see Jesus in you." Isn't that a comforting thought?


2. If I am a sinner surely God will reject me when I die?

There is no shortage of Christians who will try to make you "sin conscious". Do beware of this. You are righteous (Romans 5:17. 2 Corinthians 5:21). You are in right standing with God - you are sanctified (1 Cor 1:2 and 30). I invite you to read the following scriptures so as to give you confidence of who you are in Jesus:

*You are a new creation (2Cor 5:17).
*You cannot be condemned if you believe in Jesus (Rom 8:1).
*You have been forgiven of all sin (Col 1:14). The devil will whisper otherwise but he is lying.
*You have been rescued from darkness (Col 1:13).
*You are so precious to God that you are His heir and joint heir with Jesus (Rom 8:17).
*You are sanctified (1 Cor 1:2).
*You are a citizen of heaven (Phil 3:20).
*God has now raised you up and seated you "in heavenly realms", in other words you (your spirit) are even now in heaven with God (Eph 2:6).
*You are more than a conqueror and nothing can separate you from the love of God (Rom 8:37-39).
*You have eternal life (1 John 5:11-13).
*You can do everything through Jesus who gives you strength (Phil 4:13). You may have difficulty believing this but it is true!
*God will meet all your needs (not wants!) according to His glorious riches in Jesus (Phil 4:19).
* God loves you (1 John 4:9-12).
