When You Feel So Alone, Do You Forget What Jesus Has Told Us?
I think we all feel lonely at one time or another, but do we feel like Jesus has abandoned us? If we love Him, He says in Revelation 21: 3-4: And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.
When things get to feeling overwhelming, we need to remember Jesus won't turn His back on us and as long as we love Him as our Savior, and when He calls us to join Him in heaven, there will be no more worldly problems or pain.
What Do Our Actions Say When Jesus Calls Us? Sometimes, the lack of action conveys more than we imagine, but there's still time to make changes! Yeah, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for Thee; the Desire of our soul is to Thy name, and to the remembrance of Thee. Isaiah 26:8
If We Say We Are Christians, but Only Minimally Have a Relationship with Jesus, Are We Christians?
If We Say We Are Christians, but Only Minimally Have a Relationship with Jesus, Are We Christians?
That's a tricky one and only Jesus can answer that. What I do know is what it says in the Bible in Revelation 3:15-16: "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.
It's not to late to change your relationship with Jesus. All you have to do is pray and tell Him you're sorry and what Him to be in control of your heart, life and choices. He will if you ask Him, but not just one time, you have to have an on-going relationship with Him. It says in Revelation 3:19-20: As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten [discipline]. Therefore be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.

It's common these days, especially on the media, to see people saying hateful things, treating others hatefully, and even protesting for the right to maintain their hate of others. How does Jesus feel about this?
In 1 John 4:7-11 it says: Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifest toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation [the atonement] for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

When Some Christians Say Jesus Wants Christians to Have Things Like: Fancy Cars, Houses, High Paying Jobs, Are They Right?
Do you really think that's true? I was watching a popular TV Evangelist when I was staying in hotel one time. I had watched him a couple of times to see why so many people are mesmerized by him. I found some things to be inspiring, but realized when he was talking about his fancy cars that time, that that's not living the way Jesus did. It says in the Bible in

Luke 9: 58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and
birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay His head.
I realized that when I hear, so-called Christians saying it's OK to have worldly things, because Jesus want us to be Happy, he's not aligned with the example Jesus gave us. It says in 1 John 4:1-6: Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. They are of the world, Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.
