The sin of lust is slowly destroying me and I keep on trying to stop it but every week I fall into it at least once and it’s killing me.I’m really trying to stop I’ve been trying since beginning of 2023 and if anyone sees this please pray for me🙏🙏

I know how you feel. Lust has been a terrible enemy of mine as well. Everyday is a battle, but you must never lose faith. The main purpose of the enemy's attacks is to destroy your faith. This is a war and in a war many battles are fought. Keep your focus on God and pray often for the Lord's strength. DO NOT GIVE UP. The Lord is with you, and you can defeat this.

Can I just ask. Have you put this under the blood? I mean that sincerely. Why burden yourself with guilt over something your flesh overpowered you with? Get up, try again to kick the habit. You're fighting and you obviously hate the sin. Put yourself under the blood, the sacrifice was ENOUGH, you will never be enough, and your flesh will never be satiated with 'enough'. You're already free. Use that freedom to honor God! Accept your freedom and live it UNDER THE BLOOD. Realise that Christs redemptive act was enough and always will be! Ignore those who say you must work and make yourself holy! No, not you! Look at CHRIST. Put on Christ and use the power of the blood! Plead it over yourself and your sin, walk away from this sin knowing there is no condemnation toward you. You're free brother and Christ gave you that freedom. What is pyrography but the filling of a silly lust that returns in hours anyway!? Put this off! This isn't who you are! Keep a date calender of days and each day write a reminder about why you're quitting. Not because YOU want to be holy, but because by accepting Christs gift, his holiness will save you and has saved you. If you keep down this path dangerous things will happen and God will chastise you! Be careful. Don't lose all your rewards. As for.your salvation, if you've trusted ths blood of Christ, truly, don't sweat it. He is mighty to save! I 100% know you are free. Use that freedom to honour Christ brother. You can also download angel eyes, which shares your screen at random with someone you love. That's accountability helps.

@@TriciaRP Well that's a start. We are to recognize the fact that we are sinners and we have broken every one of God's laws we are not worthy of anything but his wrath and judgment. That is the first step no matter where you are in your life even if you have walked away as I also did early in my life. But the good news is that God's grace and mercy has been delivered to us through Jesus. Believe in him get to know Jesus. Because the question will be does Jesus know you? And the way he knows us is for us to obey him and to hate what God hates and love what God loves. Believe in the Resurrection that he rose in 3 days and that he is who he says he is. Repent daily, you don't just repent one time and that's it it's not a flu shot Lol. For we all fall short there's not one on earth who is righteous not one. Only Jesus was perfect. God knows that we could not possibly fulfill his law. He is strongest in our weakness. We go to him we pray to him we say the Lord's Prayer and in everything we do is to glorify God everything that he has done has been in order for us to glorify him even in our jobs and our day-to-day life and everything that we do. You will come to hate sin as he hates sin. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.

@@manasseh7 I suppose it's possible that multiple fasts are necessary for multiple bondages. Such as tobacco and then lust for someone you shouldn't be lusting after, or pornography, bitterness, resentment, anger, unforgiveness, heartbreak, food addiction, alcohol, drugs, etc.. But I don't believe that multiple fasts are necessary for one specific bondage. I am a living testimony to being set free from 25 years of slavery to smoking cigarettes after I comitted myself to a 7 day fasting and prayer. The first day for me was the hardest. Full blown spiritual warfare from hell, but the next morning on day 2 when I woke it was over. Total peace. I continued my fast for the next 6 days because I comitted to it and I wanted to be sure it would stick. And it has, bless God. I also was set free from the heartbreak of a breakup after 5.5 years, it's been many years ago now. I thought I would never get over that man, but I committed to fasting and prayer for as long as it would take until God healed my broken heart. I was serious about getting over him and moving on with my life. To my shock, it wasn't even a week I don't think, and the Lord healed me and I was a free woman. I felt nothing for him. It was really bizarre, in such a good way. You see, it really does work. These are just a few examples. There are similar testimonies are out there to countless others are as well for many different kinds of things. I hope my long answer helped some 🙂 God bless you ✝️

All churches preach false doctrine to keep you thinking you’ll always just be a sinner. When the Holy Spirit enters you, you are reborn.

You are in a battle for your soul and it has to be won in your mind. Ask God to help you stay focused on right thoughts. But don't get distracted. You need to keep your mind on living in a way that pleases God in every way, from your thoughts to your actions. You must be willing to see what it feels like to say "No" to sin when you are being tempted and see how the temptation goes away (James 1:12-15). God will be with you in all those moments if your focus is on loving and pleasing God above all and you trust that He will deliver you. God will lead you to overcome sin/addictions and any challenges according to your faith / your willingness to obey Him (do his will). Hebrews 5:9 And having been made perfect, He [Jesus] became the author of eternal *salvation to all those who obey Him* James 1:21-22 21 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness [that's repentance], receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word [that's faith/obedience], and not only hearers, deluding your own selves. James 4:7-8 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. *Resist the devil and he will flee from you.* 8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Make sure that you approach God the way He expects you to, presenting to Him a heart that is ready to obey Him in all. That needs to be your attitude if you believe God and love Him. 1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome. Psalm 119:11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. Peace to you!

Our Lord chose Apostles, instructed them. founded His Church, the Roman Catholic Church, on Peter as its head (Matt 16:18), and sent them to baptize and teach all nations to observe ALL that He has commanded (Matt 28:20), so that they may believe in Him through their words (John 17:20) and thus may have eternal life (John 3:16). Our Lord said, "Whoever listens to you, listens to Me. Whoever rejects you, rejects Me and rejects the One who sent Me (Luke 10:16; John 13:20; Matt 10:40)," and "He that believes shall be saved and he that believes not shall be condemned (Mark 16: 15-16)." Whoever rejects Me and does not accept My Words has something to judge him; the word that I spoke, it will condemn him on the last day (John 12:48). If anyone loves Me, he will keep My words (John 14:15,21,23), he that loves Me not, keeps not My words (John 14:24)." Protestant churches reject Our Lord by rejecting teachings of His Church whom He heads and saves (Eph 5:23). People following protestant churches do not realize that they are following wolves in sheep's clothing and, thereby, walking on the broad way to perdition. They say, "Lord, Lord", with insincere hearts, but, at judgement, will hear "I never knew you, depart from Me, you evil doers (Matt 7:23)." Open your eyes, brothers and sisters, and understand the Truth; and save yourselves by returning to His Church where He awaits you with open arms! As we are now living through the tribulations in the end times, time is urgent! When you come to the Catholic Church and are baptized into a member, your sins will be completely forgiven. And you will be strengthened spiritually by receiving Sacraments through which Our Lord gives His merits and graces so that you may become worthy for His Kingdom in Heaven.

I would encourage anyone struggling in repetitive sin to first come to terms with their IDENTITY IN CHRIST. Your sin nature was crucified on the cross with Christ. When you became a believer in the finished redemptive work on the cross, you were born to new life. Which is eternal life (Jesus). That new birth in you can never sin. The war against the flesh will continue until you are raptured or pass on. But your identity will never change, as a child of God. Born again, regenerated, sanctified in the spirit and one with Christ. Be encouraged, Christ did all the redemptive work necessary, now we must recognize our identity in Him, and not in our dead flesh.

You cant disappoint a father who knows the end from the beginning, you can, however, disappoint yourself. God doesn't think like we do and self condemnation is paralysis. No wonder so many people never move forward. Christs sacrifice IS enough! Stop beating yourself up and live the freedom that TRUE forgiveness brings. You're FREE. I know this is hard to understand but it takes an infinitely higher amount of faith to believe that the blood actually prevents you from going to Hell! That's the whole POINT. Yes you can lose rewards. You will be chastised in the flesh, and live a useless life to God. You can lose money, renown and favour. These are very real and incredibly overlooked judgements that saved People can recieve and the worst is the loss of the surity of salvation!

If you tell an unsaved man such a story at this, he is astonished and overwhelmed-yet this is the Gospel! Our Apostle, Paul, reveals the following great doctrines; 1. The unrighteousness before God of all men. 2. The impossibility of justification by works before God- that is, of any man’s attaining a standing of righteousness before God by anything done by him. Do what a man may, he is a condemned sinner still. 3. The fact and the Scripturalness of righteousness on the free gift principle-that is, of Divine righteousness, separate from all man’s doings, conferred upon man as a free gift from God. 4. Propitiation-that satisfaction of God’s Holy Nature and law for man’s sins rendered by Christ’s blood. 5. Reconciliation-the removal by Christ’s death for man of that obstacle to righteousness which man’s sin had set up between God and man. 6. The plan of the actual conferring of the gift of righteousness upon all who believe, without any distinction. This change of a sinner’s standing before God, from one of condemnation to one of righteousness, is called Justification. Negatively, it is deliverance from guilt on account of Christ’s shed blood and deliverance out of the old creation by identification in death with Christ on the Cross. Positively, it is a new standing in the risen Christ before God. 7. Redemption-the buying back of the soul through the blood of Christ from sin; from the curse of the law-even death, involving exclusion from God under penalty; from the "power of death," which involves the hand of the enemy; and from all iniquity. 8. Forgiveness-the going forth of Divine tenderness in remitting the penalty for sin in view of the blood of Christ trusted in, and in complacency and fellowship to creatures who before were necessarily under Divine judgment. 9. Remission of sins-that is, the actual removing of transgressions or trespasses from the sinner, so that for all time and eternity his sins shall not again be upon him. 10. Identification-(see above, Justification). The great fact that those who are in Christ were united with Him at the Cross by God’s sovereign inscrutable act and were crucified with Christ and buried with Him, so that their history is now ended before God. And when Christ was raised up as the Firstborn of the new creation, they also were raised up with Him and their history began as new creatures in God’s sight in Christ, the Last Adam. Of course, in the experience of the Christian there comes a time when he is actually made partaker of this new life-that point of time when he is, as we say, saved, or converted, or born again, etc. Nevertheless, the life that is in every Christian came up out of the Tomb, and it is in Christ Jesus that a man is created anew. 11. Incorporation-This tremendous doctrine Paul alone mentions, and he makes it practically the foundation of all his exhortations to the saints with regard to their conduct and life. By "incorporation" we mean the fact that all those who are really saved and are new creatures in Christ Jesus become members of one organism (called "the Body of Christ"), which is more real than the very earth we tread upon-Christ Himself in Heaven being the Head of this Body and every real Christian a member of it. So that believers are thus members of Christ in Heaven and also members one of another here on earth. No wonder Paul is able to exhort the saints to love one another when they are members one of another! (Rom. 12; 1 Cor. 12; Eph. 4). 12. Inhabitation-The wonderful fact that the Body of Christ and each member of it individually is inhabited, indwelt, by the Holy Spirit Himself, and not only so, but that the Church is being "built together" as a great temple of God so that in the future God’s actual eternal dwelling place will be this wonderful, mysterious company built into a building called "a holy habitation of God in the Spirit." This mystery is a great and marvelous one-the fact that we are saved, are partakers now of the life of the Lord in glory, that the Holy Spirit indwells us. 13. Divine Exhibition-That is, that through the Church in the ages to come is to be made known that which God counts His "riches," even His Grace (Eph. 2:7,3:10). Paul in his wonderful revelation declares that God hath reconciled the world to Himself; that God was in Christ (at the Cross) reconciling the world unto Himself (2 Cor. 5:19). Men do not know this, but they conceive that something stands between them and God before God will accept or forgive them. 2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 Corinthians 15:21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Ephesians 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Colossians 2:12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 1 Corinthians 15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1 Timothy 3: And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

I think that it's in Corinthians. It says.. count your selves dead to sin.. dead people don't sin. Be cause you are alive to God.. his word says anybody in christ is a new character creature in christ. Its the flesh that sins which goes to the grave. Flesh and blood will not inherit the kingdom of heaven. But job says yet in my flesh I shall see god. A new flesh. Jesus wasn't recognized as such till he made him self known. But he said to Tom's here feel my hands and feet put your fingers in my side.. jesus had resurrected body the first fruits to be risen. So sinful body know enter heaven but your resurrection body will go to heaven. Unless we are rapture 1st. Which is probably any time now. May b by 2028....he ain't far away now as in days of Noah.

You need to repent. Humble yourself before God and recognize how you had not 100% rejected evil, which is what led you to sin. That is part of everyone's story (Romans 3:23). But you can reject evil and be redeemed from bondage to sin (Romans 3:24). That is what repentance is about. God will hear your prayers, and forgive you, and heal you (1 Peter 3:10-12, 2 Chronicles 7:14, Isaiah 55:6-7, 2 Corinthians 7:10, James 1:21-22). Read these scriptures to understand God's plan for you and have no doubt about it. Please see the videos in the *_"Be Set Free From Sin"_* section on my channel for help. Your obedience to God out of love for God (John 14:15) is the key to your deliverance from any sin that you are bound in (Hebrews 5:9). Peace to you!

Sin gets removed from the heart when we confess and repent. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and Just to forgive us our sin and to CLEANSE us from all unrighteousness - (1 John 1:5-10). The Body of Sin gets destroyed (Rom. 6:6) when the Old Man is crucified through confession and repentance. Paul explained the effects of the reoccurrence of sin in the heart and spirit in (Rom. 7:14-24.). The sinful nature manifests itself through our daily walk with the Lord and we then become aware of the presence of that sin which we confess. Every time it manifests itself, we deal with a new layer of the same sin. This induces spiritual growth. The Blood of Christ is the most Powerful substance in the entire universe, because it is the only substance that can remove sin out of the heart of a person. The Remission of sin is a process by which the Blood of Christ - (Matt. 26:28) and the Waters of Water baptism (Acts 2:38 - baptizing in the Name of Jesus) removes the sin out of the heart as soon as the sin is confessed. Sin is built by layers in the heart as we have committed them and grew in them before salvation. These layers have to be peeled away as the layers of an onion is peeled, confession upon confession, upon confession. Every time you experience the same sin, you actually encounters the next layer of the same sin which is removed from your heart when you confess it and apply the Blood of the Lord. The Blood of Christ, along with the Waters of His Name washes the sin away via the River of Remission which flowed out from the side of the Lord when He was pierced in His side - out came blood and water ( John 19:34). Initial Salvation is the beginning of our journey unto Perfection and Holiness in Jesus Christ. Jesus will only get married to a Holy Bride, and this Holiness can only be achieved and established in our hearts through daily confession and repentance. The Bride hath made herself ready (Rev 19:7) for her Bridegroom by allowing the Body of Sin to be destroyed through daily confession and repentance. The Blood of Christ is the only substance that can convert a sinful heart into a Holy heart. Without Holiness no man shall see the Lord (Heb 12:14), and only the pure in heart will see Him (Matt5:8). The supernatural Works of Believing (John 14:12) is to believe that Jesus can convert us into His Holiness through His Blood. Jesus could not have done the greater Works by Himself whilst He walked on Earth, because to be able to do the Greater Works of Believing, a person needs the Blood of Christ which at that time still was in Jesus' veins. The greater works of Redemption could only be accomplished with His Holy Resurrected Blood. We are delivered from the sinful nature by the Blood of Christ upon confession and repentance daily. So, every time you re-commit the same sin and you confess and truly repent, then the Body of Sin is busy being destroyed. (Not sinning willfully). Take courage and keep confessing. Do not be foolish to think that if you sin deliberately that you will be pardoned or forgiven (Heb 6:4-6). There is a difference. When the sin come up without you premeditating and planning it, then it is the Holy Ghost revealing to your conscious mind that the sin still is active in your heart, and that you need to confess and repent. So, keep going. Hope to see you in the Bride! (Not all Christians, and neither is the Church going to be in the Bride - only those who had separated themselves and who sold everything (their fleshly nature) they had through confession and repentance.

I heard someone a long time ago say something to the effect of, ‘When you’re about to sin, just imagine Jesus in the room, or right there w/you, *in person.* B/C He actually IS, but through His Holy Spirit. 🕊 If you can picture Him as being physically present, that should be a very good deterrent. Would you be stealing that item w/Jesus as your ‘accomplice’? Would you be having sexual relations w/that person, if Jesus was also in bed w/you? Would you speak in the same manner, if Jesus was also a part of that conversation? Would you keep hanging w/those you sin with regularly, if Jesus was w/you? Shooting up, getting drunk, doing other drugs, & possibly then getting in your car w/Jesus as your passenger?’ Get in the habit of knowing that Jesus IS there w/you, *always.* In *every situation & conversation.* *B/C He **_IS._* Even when you’re alone, watching or doing whatever you are. He’s right next to you on that couch, or phone, or computer, etc. Would you be still doing what you are? Would you be bringing Jesus w/you to that place, conversation, or person, movie, etc.? Works for me! 😁 Be Blessed by His Love & Truth in your heart, everyone.💜

What works for me now is to pray consistently to hate the sin, and then put the maximum effort in stopping it (while continuing with prayer). I've also observed that consistent Bible reading (at least 20mins a day) helps to keep your mind on God and develop hatred for the sin faster.

My heart goes out to my brothers and sisters in Christ who are struggling with certain addictions. I mess up constantly but i have been delivered from certain behaviors which were just a way of life for me. I consider nothing short of a miracle and I never take it for granted and am just relieved. A big part of my deliverance was fasting and praying and immersing myself in the Word. Specifically I prayed against generational curses and got really deep in praying against specific sins. I know people have various theologies on this but I remember praying with my elders in the church and I kid you not something left me. I didn't even believe in demons before but when it left I felt like a brand new person. I could not believe something like that could make me feel so awful. Praying that all habitual sins will be broken off our lives in Jesus name.

Have you received the message of God who is calling all people to repent (Acts 17:30-31)? That is the way to be forgiven for sins we have committed up to that point of turning to God and turning the page from the way we had lived until then. That opens the door to receiving God's healing and the gift of *a new life* that we will live for God and no longer for sin/addictions and the passing things of the world (Romans 6:4-7, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Galatians 6:15). It all begins with repentance and faith in Jesus, which means obedience to his word out of love for Him (John 14:15). You need to have the word of God in your heart to live for Him and walk in his ways (that includes the willingness to forgive also). So, if you are willing to follow God's ways, you need to take guidance from the scriptures: James 1:21-22 21 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness [that's repentance], receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word [that's faith/obedience], and not only hearers, deluding your own selves. James 4:7-8 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. This is always a good place to start drawing near to God: Psalm 119:11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. That will lead you to transformation by the power of God and freedom from sin. Peace to you!

Very helpful, and a concept that I've been struggling with for a while now. Also, advice for anyone else struggling with those premeditated sins - the ones that you know you shouldn't do but can't conceive of never stopping and can't bring yourself to feel truly sorry for it: tell Him! So many times I have literally prayed, "I'm sorry God, but I can't truthfully admit I want to stop doing this. Please help me to want to WANT to stop!" And after a good while of trying to consistently pray that, I've felt repulsion for that sin increasing. So if you're wrestling with even wanting to want to fight a certain sin, start there.

Your repentance is not real if you still continue to sin. There is only one truth from God and the rest is all lies that are being fabricated by the many who are lost and deceived. The vast majority of believers are so deceived in their beliefs that they foolishly believe that scripture is relating that they can never stop sinning. They clearly have no idea that God commanded us to live a holy and righteous life which can only be achieved by no longer sinning. Since we are all born in sin and in ignorance of God’s word and truth this is the reason why Jesus came into this world. Jesus came to forgive us of the sins that we have already committed and He came to teach us how to stop sinning through His Holy Spirit. Jesus did not come to forgive our past, present and future sins as many of the deceived desire to believe and there are no such scriptures that even back up that nonsense. This spoken untruth is having people believe that they can continue to sin and then simply repent and God will just forgive them over and over. This twisted reasoning would mean that you can steal and then repent, you can lie and then repent, you can murder and simply repent. You can keep committing whatever sin you desire and just repent afterwards and you will always be forgiven. Jesus came to call sinners to repentance which meant for them to no longer sin. So to try and justify why they still sin many deceived believers will twist the meaning of scriptures like 1 John 1:8-1O or Romans 3:10, 3:23 and 7. For some foolish reason these lost souls desire to believe that Paul and the apostles continued to sin and they will often twist the Romans 7 scripture to try and back up their lies. These deceived believers fail to realize that we have all been sinners at one time in our lives and Paul was simply relating how he was a sinner until he was freed by knowing Christ. They clearly overlook how Paul related that he had died to sin and he was no longer a slave to sin in Romans 6. Many also love to twist what the I John 1:8-10 is relating in order to justify their sins. They clearly have no idea that this scripture is simply relating that everyone is born a sinner since we are all born in sin and ignorance of truth. It is saying that this is why we need to repent and confess our sins to God so that He will then forgive us. It is also stating that anyone who believes that they have never sinned is then calling God a liar. But nowhere is this scripture ever relating that a believer will always sin as those who follow the devil and his lies desire to believe. The Romans 3:10 is simply relating that none of us are righteous since we are all born in sin and this is why we needed a savior to teach us how to stop sinning. Romans 3:23 is actually stating the same thing since we are all born in sin and we all fall short of the glory of God. Many believers who are lost and deceived try to justify their sin by claiming that the apostles were sinners themselves and they will often use the scripture where Peter denied Jesus as their justification. When they do this nonsense they are clearly revealing their complete ignorance of scripture and they prove how they are being guided by a demon spirit and not the Holy Spirit. So did the apostles all sin at some time in their lives? They most definitely did since everyone is born in sin and in ignorance of truth. Now did Peter sin when he denied Christ? He most certainly did but this occurred before Peter was sanctified in truth and this is where many believers go astray. Next, did Peter sin when Paul corrected him in Galatians 2? No he did not since Peter was following the Old Covenant laws that he was raised under and Paul was simply revealing how their old custom traditions should no longer apply under God’s New Covenant. Many believers are so lost and deceived that they are not comprehending what scripture is relating and they do not understand that the apostles were originally sinful disciples who allowed Jesus to sanctify their heart in God’s truth. This meant that the apostles were sinners who willingly followed the teachings of Jesus and they allowed Jesus to teach them how to overcome their sins. This is why God then used them as His messengers and He gave them His power to heal. Read John 17:6-19 where Jesus prayed for His disciples sanctification to prove what I relate. Another thing that the many deceived believers clearly overlook is how scripture relates that God does not listen to the prayers of sinners. God’s word never lies so this alone proves that the apostles could never have performed healing miracles if they were still sinners themselves. Jesus could work healing miracles because He was sinless and so God then answered His prayers. The apostles then reached the place where they overcame their sins as well and so this is why God then answered their healing prayers. “Now we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him.” ‭‭John‬ ‭9:31‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭5:18‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Scripture relates that anyone who is born of God does not sin and because they can no longer sin this is why they can no longer get sick since sickness only comes from sin and the devil. So if you can still sin and you can still get sick then that certainly proves that you are not BORN AGAIN. This is why many believers who live in sin and sickness will try and justify their afflictions by twisting the meaning of various scripture like claiming that Paul’s thorn in the flesh was a sickness. Many lost and ignorant souls desire to believe that Paul was always sick or that Paul was someone who had bad eyesight so allow me to reveal just how deceived these believers truly are since I will explain what Paul was relating in the 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 scripture. First, what does a thorn in the flesh do? Well it causes pain and suffering. So just as Jesus suffered in the wilderness by being tempted by Satan, Jesus then allowed a messenger of Satan to tempt Paul in order to make him stronger in the Holy Spirit. “And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” ‭‭II Corinthians‬ ‭12:7-10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ If Paul was able to remove the sickness from everyone who came to him then what could possibly make anyone believe that he was someone who had sickness in his own life? Couldn’t Paul just remove the sickness from himself as he did with those who came to him for healing? Plus if Paul was bitten by a venomous snake and yet it did him no harm how could anyone possibly believe that Paul was someone who could then get sick himself? “Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭3:4-9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ So scripture clearly states that whoever sins does not know God and whoever sins is of the devil. Scripture also clearly relates that whoever abides in God and is born of God cannot sin and does not sin. So anyone who sins or anyone who believes that they can never stop sinning is simply a deceived believer who does not understand a thing in regards to God and scripture. They are completely deceived in their beliefs and they certainly are not being guided by the Holy Spirit nor are they living in the blessing that Jesus provided for all of mankind.

@@mikerutkowski7265 nowhere in the Bible does it say that once we are Christians we will never EVER get sick again. And nowhere in the Bible does it say that once we are saved we are no longer sinners. This is a COMPLETE contradiction of Gods word. Your basically claiming to be perfect if you say you are no longer a sinner. Which again is a contradiction of Gods word. All over the Bible we are told that we are not perfect only He is perfect which is why we need Him. Which is why we need His forgiveness daily. There’s a difference between LIVING in sin and slipping up. Sinning and repenting and purposefully sinning again is abusing Gods grace now that’s a sin, but if your saying that if we sin ever again we are not of God and things like that then I encourage you to pray and read Gods word more my friend. If someone claims to be a Christian but doesn’t practice righteousness doesn’t know God. We still sin but the difference is living in sin or not. And notice how in His word it says in 1 John 3:7 Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.” The key word is PRACTICE it doesn’t mean your perfectly sinless. And we are also told that we will have trials and that being a Christian isn’t easy. Being sick just might be apart of that for some Christians. Like getting cancer for example. This can be a way that God can grow someone’s faith and dependence on Him.

@JMN128, Have you received the message of God who is calling all people to repent (Acts 17:30-31)? That is the way to be forgiven for sins we have committed up to that point of turning to God and turning the page from the way we had lived until then. That opens the door to receiving God's healing and the gift of *a new life* that we will live for God and no longer for sin/addictions and the passing things of the world (Romans 6:4-7, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Galatians 6:15). It all begins with repentance and faith in Jesus, which means obedience to his word out of love for Him (John 14:15). You need to have the word of God in your heart to live for Him and walk in his ways (that includes the willingness to forgive also). So, if you are willing to follow God's ways, you need to take guidance from the scriptures: James 1:21-22 21 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness [that's repentance], receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word [that's faith/obedience], and not only hearers, deluding your own selves. James 4:7-8 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. This is always a good place to start drawing near to God: Psalm 119:11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. That will lead you to transformation by the power of God and freedom from sin. Peace to you!

You are in a battle for your soul (we all are) and it has to be won in your mind. Ask God to help you stay focused on right thoughts. But don't get distracted. You need to keep your mind on living in a way that pleases God in every way, from your thoughts to your actions. If you realize that you are trapped and need to be delivered, knowing what you need to do goes together with prayers for your deliverance, because you must follow God's instructions to you in your situation. You must be willing to see what it feels like to say "No" to a desire of your flesh when you are being tempted, and see how the temptation goes away (James 1:12-15). God's grace will help you to do that (Titus 2:11-14) and He will be with you in all those moments if your focus is on loving and pleasing Him above all and you trust that He will deliver you. It is critical that what you regard as repentance is what God calls repentance in the Bible. You must sincerely regret having sinned against God, and come to the point of hearing and agreeing 100% with Jesus' message saying, "I do not condemn you, now go and don't sin anymore" (John 8:11). You only need to be on board with approaching God the way He expects you to, and that will be your path to receiving his forgiveness and healing, freedom from sin/addictions and the gift of *a new life* (John 8:34-36, Romans 6:4-7). That is salvation. James 1:21-22 21 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness [that's repentance], receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word [that's faith, which implies obedience], and not only hearers, deluding your own selves.

@@RM-ov8gk most don’t understand “hyper” grace. Jesus has given us “unlimited “ grace. Once you really understand being “born again” means then you can live in that “unlimited “ grace that God provides. Therefore there is no need for “repentance “. Jesus has already “paid” our “penitence”. True grace is freely given and you can live sin free...while you are still here on earth. But only when you are truly “born again”. That is when you realize what Gods true purpose is and you truly are living it. Your true identity. A Son of God. There is ZERO guilt if you are a true Son of God. “Sin” is a man made up word. The true meaning is a archery term...meaning missing the mark. That is the narrow path that Jesus talked about. If you go your own way....you miss the mark. But no guilt or shame involved...God is a God of unconditional Love and therefore you get many chances. It does not mean you can just do whatever you wish and God will ultimately take you back in (which some mistake hyper grace to be) although He will. It’s all about blessing and curse. Life and death. If you walk your own walk with out God...then that will only bring on the curse. Not Gods curse but ...your own curse. If you walk with Him...it’s all about life ...abundance of life and blessing.

What an amazing and nuanced answer to a question I've had often. I have to admit, sometimes it seems as if I'm searching for reassurance that I could commit premeditated sin (like a "sin vacation") and that would be okay as long as it was for a short time. But as soon as I realize that that's what I'm doing, that's when I also know that I need to confess, repent, and run to the Lord for strength to stay on the narrow path of righteousness. Unfortunately I falter often times, but when I do, I'm usually so overwhelmed with guilt that the sin loses any pleasure even in the moment. I think that that is the Holy Spirit convicting me and urging me to leave the squalor. Thankfully, it's made it easier going forward, knowing that even if I go down that path, I'll find no joy or fun there. No, the joy is when we're walking in peace with the Lord's will.

God's grace will help you to do that (Titus 2:11-14) and He will be with you in all those moments if your focus is on loving and pleasing Him above all and you trust that He will deliver you. Your obedience as you choose to follow God's ways opens the door to receiving his forgiveness for your past sins (Romans 3:25), healing (Luke 5:31-32), and the gift of *a new life* that you will live for God and no longer for sin/addictions and the passing things of the world (Romans 6:4-7, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Galatians 6:15). You just need to approach God the way He expects you to-with the right mindset. James 4:7-8 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. This is always a good place to start drawing near to God: Psalm 119:11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. That will lead you to transformation by the power of God and freedom from sin. Peace to you!

I've never heard or thought of this definition of sin before, but it makes me so excited to finally see the day Jesus comes back and sin will be no more. It makes me so excited to see that one day, every thought, every gesture, every facial expression, every word, and every part of my being will be 100% bent only towards the good and holy God.

1 John 3:6 Whoever abides in Him [Jesus] does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. Often people see that scripture and can't relate to it, so they turn to another subject and claim no one is perfect. This is not necessary. If anything, running from the truth will never help (John 8:31-32). Being imperfect does not mean living in rebellion against God's ways that can be described as the case of knowing right from wrong but choosing to do wrong/sin. 1 John 2:1 speaks about "If we sin..." not "when we sin..." That means growth is supposed to happen in a believer so that the "new creature" can truly say that the old is gone and the new has come in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17, Ephesians 4:17-24). When Jesus comes back his servants will be ushered into the a new world where there is no sin, but Jesus came already to save sinners from their sins (Matthew 1:21, John 8:34-36, Romans 6:4-7, Romans 8:1-2). Please ponder on those scriptures. You will get more light than through listening to what is popularly preached as truth. *Freedom from sin* is then what follows repentance as God expects it. Being set free from sin and going on obeying God (not disobeying Him/sinning) is what salvation in Jesus is about. That's not happening when the word of God is suppressed or twisted on the requirement of repentance for salvation. I invite you to examine that. Biblical repentance is not separated from an understanding that when someone has an encounter with Jesus, He will say, "Go, and don't sin anymore" (John 8:11). That indicates a path that God's grace will help any imperfect person who agrees with that word to stay on. What are your thoughts?

Once Jesus cleanses you from all unrighteousness, you do not remain the "wretched man." If you do, then what does conversion mean? It implies a transformation happens. So, if you finish reading Romans 7, you will get to Romans 8:1-2, where the wretched man does not exist anymore. He got saved/delivered/set free from sin and he is not the same. He is no longer a slave of sin (John 8:34-36, Romans 6:14).

I think there was a lot that was helpful in this answer. One thing that helped me was to realise the Bible doesn't always say to repent in respect of sin. I believe that is because as John Piper explains there are really two kinds of sin: - doing wrong in the context of having set our lives to do right. - doing wrong as a result of negligence (John Piper called it fatalism) or premeditated intent to do wrong. In the first case we confess our sins. In the latter case we must repent - change our life direction.

As long as you are breathing, it's God being merciful to you. That is his love (John 3:16) you need to respond to by presenting to Him a heart that is ready to obey Him in all. You cannot walk with God without that disposition. If you agree with God to approach Him to walk with Him the way He expects you to, that’s the square one requirement for you to receive the fullness of His presence (e.g. receiving the Holy Spirit). Then you have the power to live a godly life to the end as long as you keep on choosing God and life over sin and death, day by day, moment by moment. You can choose where your life goes from this point on. The day of salvation is today. It’s all about what you hear and how you hear/receive it: 2 Corinthians 6:2 For He says: “In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you.” Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. This is God's call to repentance: Isaiah 55:6-7 6 Seek the LORD while he may be found; call upon him while he is near: 7 let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. James 1:21-22 21 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness [that's repentance], receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word [that's faith, which implies obedience], and not only hearers, deluding your own selves. That's between you and God. The conviction you will feel that will energize you to go in the direction of following God’s ways, it will come from you agreeing with God ruling over your heart. That means there must be no room for self-will. God just wants your whole heart now. You cannot fix the past, but you can choose to go forward the right way with God being the center of your life now. Peace to you!

@@Redeemed26 The way of escape will always have to do with submission (obedience) to God. Choosing sin is disobedience to God. So, if you relate to having been redeemed, you always have the option to obey God, no matter what temptation to sin comes your way. Being powerless to escape sin is the state of being in bondage to sin (John 8:34), not having been set free from sin (redeemed) by Jesus (John 8:36). So, that's also a contradiction to being "saved by grace": Romans 6:14 For *sin will not have dominion over you. For you are not under the law, but under grace.* If something is not how you think it should be a far as having power over sin, your repentance is the very thing you need to look at in light of what the Bible teaches that repentance is. My reply to you is based on your comment only and does not make any assumptions from what is said in this video.

@mikerutkowski7265 3 жыл бұрын

You certainly are lost and you certainly are deceived. Your repentance is not real if you still continue to sin. There is only one truth from God and the rest is all lies that are being fabricated by the many who are lost and deceived. The vast majority of believers are so deceived in their beliefs that they foolishly believe that scripture is relating that they can never stop sinning. They clearly have no idea that God commanded us to live a holy and righteous life which can only be achieved by no longer sinning. Since we are all born in sin and in ignorance of God’s word and truth this is the reason why Jesus came into this world. Jesus came to forgive us of the sins that we have already committed and He came to teach us how to stop sinning through His Holy Spirit. Jesus did not come to forgive our past, present and future sins as many of the deceived desire to believe and there are no such scriptures that even back up that nonsense. This spoken untruth is having people believe that they can continue to sin and then simply repent and God will just forgive them over and over. This twisted reasoning would mean that you can steal and then repent, you can lie and then repent, you can murder and simply repent. You can keep committing whatever sin you desire and just repent afterwards and you will always be forgiven. Jesus came to call sinners to repentance which meant for them to no longer sin. So to try and justify why they still sin many deceived believers will twist the meaning of scriptures like 1 John 1:8-1O or Romans 3:10, 3:23 and 7. For some foolish reason these lost souls desire to believe that Paul and the apostles continued to sin and they will often twist the Romans 7 scripture to try and back up their lies. These deceived believers fail to realize that we have all been sinners at one time in our lives and Paul was simply relating how he was a sinner until he was freed by knowing Christ. They clearly overlook how Paul related that he had died to sin and he was no longer a slave to sin in Romans 6. Many also love to twist what the I John 1:8-10 is relating in order to justify their sins. They clearly have no idea that this scripture is simply relating that everyone is born a sinner since we are all born in sin and ignorance of truth. It is saying that this is why we need to repent and confess our sins to God so that He will then forgive us. It is also stating that anyone who believes that they have never sinned is then calling God a liar. But nowhere is this scripture ever relating that a believer will always sin as those who follow the devil and his lies desire to believe. The Romans 3:10 is simply relating that none of us are righteous since we are all born in sin and this is why we needed a savior to teach us how to stop sinning. Romans 3:23 is actually stating the same thing since we are all born in sin and we all fall short of the glory of God. Many believers who are lost and deceived try to justify their sin by claiming that the apostles were sinners themselves and they will often use the scripture where Peter denied Jesus as their justification. When they do this nonsense they are clearly revealing their complete ignorance of scripture and they prove how they are being guided by a demon spirit and not the Holy Spirit. So did the apostles all sin at some time in their lives? They most definitely did since everyone is born in sin and in ignorance of truth. Now did Peter sin when he denied Christ? He most certainly did but this occurred before Peter was sanctified in truth and this is where many believers go astray. Next, did Peter sin when Paul corrected him in Galatians 2? No he did not since Peter was following the Old Covenant laws that he was raised under and Paul was simply revealing how their old custom traditions should no longer apply under God’s New Covenant. Many believers are so lost and deceived that they are not comprehending what scripture is relating and they do not understand that the apostles were originally sinful disciples who allowed Jesus to sanctify their heart in God’s truth. This meant that the apostles were sinners who willingly followed the teachings of Jesus and they allowed Jesus to teach them how to overcome their sins. This is why God then used them as His messengers and He gave them His power to heal. Read John 17:6-19 where Jesus prayed for His disciples sanctification to prove what I relate. Another thing that the many deceived believers clearly overlook is how scripture relates that God does not listen to the prayers of sinners. God’s word never lies so this alone proves that the apostles could never have performed healing miracles if they were still sinners themselves. Jesus could work healing miracles because He was sinless and so God then answered His prayers. The apostles then reached the place where they overcame their sins as well and so this is why God then answered their healing prayers. “Now we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him.” ‭‭John‬ ‭9:31‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭5:18‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Scripture relates that anyone who is born of God does not sin and because they can no longer sin this is why they can no longer get sick since sickness only comes from sin and the devil. So if you can still sin and you can still get sick then that certainly proves that you are not BORN AGAIN. This is why many believers who live in sin and sickness will try and justify their afflictions by twisting the meaning of various scripture like claiming that Paul’s thorn in the flesh was a sickness. Many lost and ignorant souls desire to believe that Paul was always sick or that Paul was someone who had bad eyesight so allow me to reveal just how deceived these believers truly are since I will explain what Paul was relating in the 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 scripture. First, what does a thorn in the flesh do? Well it causes pain and suffering. So just as Jesus suffered in the wilderness by being tempted by Satan, Jesus then allowed a messenger of Satan to tempt Paul in order to make him stronger in the Holy Spirit. “And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” ‭‭II Corinthians‬ ‭12:7-10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ If Paul was able to remove the sickness from everyone who came to him then what could possibly make anyone believe that he was someone who had sickness in his own life? Couldn’t Paul just remove the sickness from himself as he did with those who came to him for healing? Plus if Paul was bitten by a venomous snake and yet it did him no harm how could anyone possibly believe that Paul was someone who could then get sick himself? “Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭3:4-9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ So scripture clearly states that whoever sins does not know God and whoever sins is of the devil. Scripture also clearly relates that whoever abides in God and is born of God cannot sin and does not sin. So anyone who sins or anyone who believes that they can never stop sinning is simply a deceived believer who does not understand a thing in regards to God and scripture. They are completely deceived in their beliefs and they certainly are not being guided by the Holy Spirit nor are they living in the blessing that Jesus provided for all of mankind.

Have you received the message of God who is calling all people to repent? That is the way to be forgiven for sins we have committed up to that point of turning to God and turning the page from the way we had lived until then. That opens the door to receiving God's healing and the gift of *a new life* that we will live for God and no longer for sin/addictions and the passing things of the world (Romans 6:4, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Galatians 6:15). It all begins with repentance and faith in Jesus, which means obedience to his word. You need to have the word of God in your heart to live for Him and walk in his ways. So, if you are willing to follow God's ways, you need to take guidance from the scriptures: James 1:21-22 21 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness [that's repentance], receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word [that's faith/obedience], and not only hearers, deluding your own selves.
