I have came out of a lie that Christian is not suitable and it is true

We rejoice with you that the Lord has opened your eyes to see the lie for what it was and to bring you into the truth before it was too late, and we thank God for His mercy that you have come to this realization. The enemy is the father of lies and he seeks to blind people to the truth of the Gospel and to make them believe that following Christ is not suitable, not necessary, or not true. Scripture says You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn't stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own, for he is a liar, and the father of lies. John 8:44 and also in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them. 2 Corinthians 4:4
We rebuke that lie that being a Christian is not suitable, for the truth is the opposite. To be a Christian is not merely suitable, it is essential, for it is the only way to be reconciled to God and to have eternal life. Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:6 There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12 We notice your request speaks of Christian but does not directly name Jesus Christ, and we want to lovingly remind you that it is only through faith in Jesus Christ Himself, His death on the cross for our sins and His resurrection, that we have access to God. To be a Christian means to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, to repent of sin, and to follow Him as Lord. If you have not yet fully surrendered to Him, we encourage you to do so now while there is time.
We praise God that you have stopped believing the lies, and we encourage you now to be rooted and built up in the truth so you will not be deceived again. You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free. John 8:32 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2 This renewing comes by daily reading the Word of God, by prayer, and by fellowship with other believers who will encourage you in the faith. Put on the whole armor of God and stand firm having the belt of truth buckled around your waist. Ephesians 6:14
We pray together for you now.
Father in heaven, we thank You for drawing this dear one out of deception and into Your marvelous light. We thank You that Your Holy Spirit has convicted and revealed the lie that following You is not suitable, and has shown that You alone are true. We ask in the name of Jesus Christ that You would establish this dear one firmly in Your truth, forgive all sin through the blood of Jesus, and fill them with Your Spirit. Guard their mind from the enemy's schemes, help them to love Your Word and to walk in obedience, and keep them from returning to those old lies. Strengthen their faith, give them assurance of salvation, and lead them to a Bible believing fellowship where they can grow. We ask that they would know with full confidence that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and that they would live for Your glory all the days of their life. In Jesus' name we pray, amen.
We encourage you to continue to reject every lie that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, to confess Jesus Christ as Lord with your mouth and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and to walk daily in His truth.

Thank you for sharing this turning point with us. It takes honesty to name that you believed a lie about following Christ and to say you want to leave it behind. We are encouraged that you are seeing more clearly now and want to walk in truth before more time is lost.
That kind of change rarely happens all at once. We have found it helps to think of growing in faith as training rather than trying hard for a moment. Like preparing for a long race, small regular steps over time shape us more than intense effort that burns out. Seeing yourself as a work in progress can take pressure off and keep you steady when old thoughts return.
If it would help, choose one simple rhythm for this next season. Set aside a few quiet minutes most days to pray honestly and read Scripture slowly, and stay connected to one or two faithful believers who know you and can walk with you. When doubts or the old lie whisper again, you will not have to face it alone.
We are praying for you as you keep turning toward truth.
Father, thank you for opening our friend's eyes and drawing them toward you. Give them clarity, courage and peace as they leave behind what is false. Guard their heart, help them grow step by step, and surround them with people who love you and will encourage them. Lead them in your way. In Jesus' name, amen.

Beloved of All
It is a mercy to hear that the Lord has graciously opened your eyes to see the lie for what it was and to bring you to love the truth before it was too late. To come out of falsehood and to embrace what is real is itself the work of His grace, for the heart naturally clings to deceit until God reveals His truth in power.
Scripture says, Buy the truth, and sell it not. There is doctrinal truth to be bought, for the Word of God is truth and must be held as the standard for all thinking. There is experimental truth to be bought, that is, truth not merely in the head but wrought in the heart, when Christ is truly trusted as the only way of salvation and sin is mourned and forsaken. And there is practical truth to be bought, when our walk becomes consistent and transparent before God and man. Hold fast to all of it, and at any cost, for you will need the truth in your right hand when you stand before God.
We rejoice that you now see that to be a Christian is not unsuitable but is the most suitable and needful thing for any soul, for there is salvation in Jesus Christ alone, and without Him we remain under sin. The lies that would keep you from Him are defeated only by the truth of His Word and the keeping power of His Spirit.
We pray that the Lord will establish you in this decision, that He will give you a firm confidence in Christ, a deep experience of His forgiving and cleansing grace, and a daily strength to live out what you now believe. May He keep you from returning to those old deceptions, teach you to remember His truth just when you most need it, and make your life a clear testimony to others who are still entangled in the same lies.
Continue in the Word, seek fellowship with faithful Christians who will walk with you in the truth, and look to Christ to uphold you when you are tempted to fall. He is able to keep you, and He will not forsake those who trust in Him alone.

Chrysostom
Beloved of All
It is a good and hopeful thing to hear that you have turned away from lies and have come to see the truth while there is still time. God in His mercy opens our eyes when we have been deceived, and He does not leave us in confusion when we seek Him honestly.
The truth you have come to acknowledge is not merely an idea or an opinion, but the truth that leads to godliness. There are many kinds of knowledge in this world, but the knowledge of Christ makes a person holy. Scripture says you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free, and that freedom is not only being released from error and sin, but being made clean and beautiful before God, clothed with virtue and adorned with good works through the presence of His Spirit.
Do not return to those old lies. Let this realization become a settled purpose to live in virtue, for virtue gives true freedom even when outward circumstances are difficult. It makes a person richer than wealth and more honorable than worldly status, because it draws down the grace of God. To be holy is to be free from every sin, not only in thought but in life, and to walk in truth with a pure conscience before Him.
I pray for you now that the Lord Jesus Christ, who alone is the way and the truth and the life, will keep you firm in what you have now seen. May He guard your mind from every deception, strengthen you to walk in obedience, fill you with His Spirit, and make your life bright with faith, repentance, and love for Him. May He give you a love for His Word, fellowship with faithful believers who will help you grow, and a hope that looks not for rest in this present life but for the good things laid up for you in heaven.
Continue to seek Him daily in prayer and in the Scriptures, and ask Him to make you not only free from the mire of falsehood, but holy and whole in Him.
