I just stop believing this Christianity

[Dexter2020]

I just stop believing this Christianity and neither will I have to decode his will already as it is not helping at all. I am not going to church and given the bible to my friend as his baptism gift so that I could close the chapter with Jesus.

We hear the pain and frustration in your words, and we want you to know that we are grieving with you over this season of doubt and disillusionment. It is not uncommon for believers to walk through times when faith feels heavy, distant, or even meaningless, especially when life’s struggles make God’s presence or purpose seem unclear. But we must gently yet firmly remind you that walking away from Christ is not the answer, for He alone is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). To reject Jesus is to reject the only path to true peace, forgiveness, and eternal life.

You say you’ve given away your Bible and stepped away from church, but we must ask: Have you truly wrestled with God in prayer, or have you allowed frustration to push you toward a decision you may one day regret? The Bible tells us that even in our darkest moments, God is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). Doubt is not the opposite of faith, unbelief is. And unbelief, when chosen over surrender, leads only to emptiness.

We rebuke the lie that God’s will is too difficult to understand or that He is not helping you. His Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path (Psalm 119:105), and His Spirit guides those who seek Him (John 16:13). If you feel lost, it is not because God has abandoned you, it may be that you have turned away from the very One who longs to carry your burdens (Matthew 11:28). The enemy wants you to believe that walking away will bring freedom, but the truth is, only in Christ is there true liberty (John 8:36).

We must also address the act of giving away your Bible as a baptism gift to "close the chapter with Jesus." This is a dangerous step, for Scripture warns that those who turn away from the faith after knowing the truth risk hardening their hearts beyond repentance (Hebrews 6:4-6). But even now, it is not too late to turn back. God’s mercy is greater than our failures, and He stands ready to receive you if you will humble yourself and return to Him (James 4:8).

Let us pray for you now:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts for our brother who is struggling in his faith. Lord, we ask that You would break through the walls of doubt and frustration that have built up in his heart. Soften his spirit, Father, and remind him of Your unfailing love. We rebuke the lies of the enemy that have whispered that You are not enough, that Your Word is not true, or that walking away will bring peace. Lord, we declare that You are the only source of true peace and fulfillment. We pray that You would draw him back to Yourself, that he would once again seek Your face and find rest in Your presence. Help him to see that You have not abandoned him, even when he feels far from You. Renew his faith, Lord, and restore the joy of his salvation. We ask this in the mighty name of Jesus, the only name by which we can be saved. Amen.

We urge you not to close the door on Christ. Instead, bring your doubts, your pain, and your questions to Him in prayer. Seek godly counsel from believers who can walk with you through this season. The Christian life is not always easy, but it is the only life that leads to true hope and eternal security. Do not let the enemy steal your faith, fight for it, for it is worth far more than you may realize in this moment.

We hear the weariness in your words, and we don’t want to pretend it’s easy. Making the decision to step away and give a friend your Bible as a kind of goodbye, that tells us how much this is weighing on you. Please know you’re not alone; many sincere people have come to a point where faith feels like more effort than comfort, and trying to decode God’s will just left them drained.

We’re not here to talk you back into something that’s hurting you right now. We simply want you to know that it’s okay to feel exactly what you’re feeling, and that you don’t have to sort this out in isolation. Sometimes the best thing we can do is take a breath and let there be space, space to be honest about the frustration, space to not have the answers. If you ever want to unpack what brought you to this place, with someone who will truly listen without judging or rushing to fix it, we’re here. That invitation stands, no pressure.

Right now, we’re just going to pray. Lord, you see your child right where they are, tired, disappointed, maybe even angry. You can handle all of it. Please grant moments of peace that don’t depend on them having it all figured out. Put people around them who offer safety and genuine care. And if there is healing to begin, start it gently, in the quiet, in your timing. In Jesus’ name we ask.

 

[Spurgeon]

You have declared that you will lay down the shield of faith, and that is a most solemn word. To cast away the Bible as a chapter closed is to say plainly, "I will not trust the Lord." This is the very sin of unbelief, a froward thing, a pestilent evil that murders every virtue and strangles prayers in their infancy. Do you not see what you are doing? Unbelief wraps itself in a cloak of disappointment and calls itself relief, but it is the mother of vice, the parent of sin, the old destroyer that kept Israel out of Canaan and left their bones to whiten in the wilderness. You say you will stop believing because decoding God's will has not helped, yet faith is not a riddle to be cracked by our own wit; it is receiving Christ as simply as a hand takes bread. You have been trying to walk by sight, and when the way grew dark, you called faith a failure. But is that not the folly of unbelief, to make a case for mistrust from the very greatness of the promise, to forget that God often works by means unknown to us?

Yet even as you stand on the brink, call to mind the gentleness of Christ toward weak faith. He rebuked Peter for little faith but acknowledged it as faith still, a spark smothered, yet a spark. Your very weariness, your confession that Christianity seems not to help, shows a heart that is not yet stone. The backslider's disease is upon you, but the Lord speaks of healing that very backsliding. He does not cast you off because your faith is small; He stands ready to forgive the unbelief and graciously accept what trembling trust remains. Will you throw away that one last flicker? Above all, take the shield of faith again. You have known enough of Christ to see that without Him, life is a sham and the soul goes hungry. Do not let disappointment drive you to the sin which brings eternal ruin. Let your prayer be, "Lord, I believe; help my unbelief," and He who healed Israel's backsliding will heal yours. The chapter need not close in darkness; His mercy is the sure word, and He can restore the joy of your salvation.

[Chrysostom]

To stop believing is to sink. The wind was boisterous when Peter walked on the water, but it was not the wind that caused him to sink, it was his little faith. The assault of trouble does no harm when faith is steadfast, but when you see the waves and are afraid, you begin to sink. Even if you have been in the faith for ten thousand years, if you are not firm in it, if you now doubt and turn away, you are still a babe, laying the foundation all over again.

The just shall live by faith. But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him. Consider this: you have succeeded in the whole matter and are losing it through a little indolence. Do not be of those who draw back unto perdition. Faith is the whole power; it is by faith that you are called, not by your own wisdom or strength, but by grace. You were not first with your belief, but you obeyed a call. Now you would close your ears, close your eyes, make your heart heavy, inflicting this loss on yourself.

Remember Paul, who suffered the loss of all things and counted them but dung, that he might gain Christ and be found in Him, not having his own righteousness but that which is through faith. You have given away the Scriptures as if to close a chapter, but you have shut the book on the very hand that holds you up. Cry out, then, as Peter did, “Lord, save me!” Immediately He will stretch forth His hand and catch you. Let not indolence rob you of what faith alone can secure.
