Unworthiness

 If you are feeling like a sinner:


“Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand.”


You seem to be having this sense of unworthiness while reading the Bible.


What you are experiencing might just be true repentance. Repentance is more than an apology. An apology means to ask the Lord to forgive you, but repentance means living a truly transformed life. It means turning over a new leaf and being a new person. It is no longer you that lives but Christ that lives in you. Galatians 2:20


I strongly advise baptism by water if you have not yet been baptized.


You need to leave behind your old body so that you are dead in the flesh, then allow the spirit of God to fill your body, giving you new life. Romans 8:10


You will be a new person. You need to say goodbye to your old self. Ephesians 4:22. Some people will even change their names after baptism. If the devil accuses you again after this, remind yourself that that was a different person. You are a different person. That wasn’t you. That was someone else.


Some people are baptized twice because their first baptism was a catholic baptism, or they were too young to know what they were doing, etc. maybe find a church that will conduct a second water baptism for you. I know Jesus Image in Florida does. My church does as well.

Previously "forced" to get baptized and speak in tongues?

Get baptized again. Nothing wrong with that. At least this time, it's from your heart. You don't HAVE to speak in tongues immediately. But some people learn by following others first, that's possible, not always the case. Some just get it without anyone teaching them. But no, it's not mocking to teach it. Everyone is different, that's all. But the question now is whether you want to learn to speak in tongues or not. I believe God created tongues for us to use, and He had a reason for it. Romans 8:26 "Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered." What probably should have been done is to first share with you the main reason for baptism. John 1:4-5 "John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. 5 Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, ...

Passover

Tell them about how Easter started — the goddess Eostre, the goddess of spring and fertility, and how it represents Easter eggs and bunnies and why we don’t celebrate it.  And that we celebrate Passover with lambs because Jesus is the Lamb of God and celebrated the Passover. And how Passover was taken away because the Jews were blamed for killing Jesus so everything Jewish was removed by Constantine - including all the other important feasts we were supposed to celebrate. Although the Apostle Paul himself celebrated the Passover (1 Cor 5:6-8), and said Christ is our Passover, asking us to “Keep the Feast of the Passover”. The rest of the early church kept the Passover. So we celebrate the Passover with Jesus as the Lamb, and the afikoman that was hidden signifies Jesus body that was broken because it was the afikoman that Jesus took and said, “this is my body that was broken..”. It was ‘after the feast’ that he ‘took the bread’. That bread is called the afikoman — the last bread af...
