If the heart of man is wicked, how can I protect it?

We are soul, body and spirit (our conscience). When we die "the spirit returns to God who gave it."Ecclesiastes 12:7
The body perishes but the soul is kept for judgment day.
We have a free will and we make choices, to obey the lusts of our soul or to obey the voice of our conscience. The soul that sins will die, be punished eternally, in hell.
Even though our soul is CORRUPTED we must choose against its rottenness and obey our conscience. The Holy Spirit lives in us, with our conscience, if we have accepted Jesus as Lord. still, we have the choice to obey the Holy Spirit together with our conscience or to do the
lusts of our flesh.

Is christening equal to baptism?

"But Jesus called for them, saying, "Permit the children to come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these." Luke 18:16

A baby has no sin. Sin starts when you know right from wrong, when you can discern sin. A baby that dies already belongs to the kingdom of heaven.

There is no original sin. Sin is committed, not in inherited.

3 As I live, declares the Lord GOD, you are surely not going to use this proverb in Israel anymore. 4 Behold, all souls are Mine; the soul of the father as well as the soul of the son is Mine. The soul who sins will die.
Ezekiel 18:3-4.

"The person who sins will die. The son will not bear the punishment for the fathers iniquity, nor will the father bear the punishment for the sons iniquity; the righteousness of the righteous will be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked will be upon himself." Ezekiel 4:20.

Repentance and baptism is for adults who can understand that they have sinned.

Must we keep the Ten Commandments?

"If ye love me, keep my commandments." John 14:15
Does this refer to the 10 commandments or another thing?


Jesus referred to His words, as written in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
We will be judged by His words.
"There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; that very word which I spoke will condemn him at the last day." John 12:48

How important is personal prophecy?

A prophesy is a message from God. Most people "prophecy" their own thoughts, lies. True prophecy is always a rebuke or correction. It is important to hear from Jesus yourself. If someone prophecies over you, pray about it first and ask Jesus to confirm it - remember, every man is a liar, God is the truth.

Drunk in the Spirit and laughing - is it real?

"what does the bible say about spiritual laughter and getting filled with the holy spirit and being drunk?"

The bible does not say anything about spiritual laughter. People laugh and act up. Being filled with the Holy Spirit is not madness, it brings people to repentance and the fear of God, not sensuality.

Can people go to heaven if they don't have a relationship with Jesus?

"Can people who read scriptures still go to Heaven if they serve Jesus yet he hardly or does not at all have a relationship yet they still preach truth of Jesus (forsake sins, make restitution when necessary, stop sinning, refute false doctrine etc.)?"

Jesus is the only one who can tell you that. Jesus said we must strive hard because the door that leads to life is narrow and few will find it. That does not leave much room for those who are not serious about following and obeying Jesus.

Ye are the salt of the earth - What does it mean?

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Matthew 5:13

Mark 9:50
Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltiness, with which will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another. Mark 9:50

Salt is a preservative, if it has lost it's saltiness it is not good as a preservative or to add taste to food. The Christians are to be salt, to prevent the rotting of society and also to add flavor. A Christian who does not obey Jesus and live in righteousness and condemns the wrong in society, is useless.
