​

Sometimes people struggle for a long time after giving their lives to Christ. With all the good intentions, some people may have understood from the message of the gospel that every struggle will disappear as soon as they say ‘I accept’ to the invitation to accept Christ as Lord and Savior. Of course, we all know that, of all the things that Jesus promised His disciples, there was not a promise saying we will not be tempted or that we will not face opposition or challenges.

​

The struggles that people face after giving their lives to Christ have sometimes made them to doubt their salvation or faith in Christ. Take, for instance, a guy who has been addicted to phonography all of his adult life. If this person gives his life to Christ today, it would be a miracle if he is never again tempted to go back to catch a glimpse of what he left behind. If his situation is not properly handled, he could be rebuked so sharply by the believers around him that he may actually leave the fellowship and return to his miry clay.
