[@LivingWaters]

Jonny, thank you for having Emeal Zwayne on your podcast. Our team loves listening to Dial In Ministries.

[@djashovel]

Nice to see you guys here 😊 If you're here ray I've been trying to comment on your channel but For some reason it never shows up or It doesn't register I don't know If i'm blocked If I am I just want to know why please

[@didiudoaffah4359]

I listen to all your podcasts and encourage others to. I hope to be among the winners of the evangelism materials and the Evidence study Bible.

[@dialinministries]

It was an honor! Love your ministry!

[@andje_izidor_music]

I love both Ministries ❤ may God keep you all in His perfect love

[@iKendel]

Came here as soon as I read about Dr. Steve Lawson. Praying for victory, restoration, and humility of every person who falls into sin. God bless you all!

[@solafide345]

To all the fellow men struggling: Read James 1 once again and when you get to verse 14, think of it that way: We are as humans ultimately driven by our desires, so let's focus on Jesus! Let him become ALL we desire, so we automatically move closer and closer to him. Be blessed :)

[@nancyhokanson4512]

Excellent conversation. I would love to hear a discussion about purity in women. As the mother of three daughters the responsibility for them to dress modestly so as to not add to the temptation of men to fall into this sin is huge. The Bible speaks quite clearly on this, but the world is constantly encouraging women to dress immodesty and therefore dishonoring God and causing others to potentially sin. I think this is a huge area not discussed and women have a part to play in not enticing our brothers into sexual sin. Thanks so much.

[@didiudoaffah4359]

Absolutely

[@MrsMemster]

Amen!

[@philipseven9215]

Though it's certainly an understatement, I've got nothing else to say but thank you. Praise God for these guys. Please pray for me brothers. I'm praying for everyone as well. May this reach those who needs to hear this and convict hearts, like it did mine. God bless!

[@CadenMcMullen]

This is sobering advice in light of the recent news of Steven Lawson. Continue to pray for him and his family. Pray also that God would keep us from the evil one.

[@RetroCody]

Can’t thank you enough for speaking on sexual immorality as often as you do. Great words from you both

[@nycrypto_investor]

Been struggling with sexual immorality since a teenager. The enemy knows our weaknesses and will continue to attack us if we don't surrender our urges to God.

[@Jesus_is_Lord_316]

It’s all about surrender - denying our flesh from its carnal passions. Luke 9:23 - And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

[@BeyethereforePerfect777]

John 8:34-36 34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. 35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. 36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

[@oteikwufrancis1108]

I first watched this a few weeks ago. A few days after that I heard the heartbreaking news of Pastor Steven Lawson. Watching this again now, I can't help but see how important and relevant the prayer was at the end of the session.

[@glorytogod2976]

This was a great chat and very helpful, thank you. I'd just like to point out that women struggle with this issue too!

[@didiudoaffah4359]

We all need this book E.Z. I just ordered mine. Great conversation Pastor Johnnie and E.Z.

[@fruitoverfirebyfaith]

I am SO grateful you both and the recent episode on For the Gospel. I have praying for this specific area to be brought into the light and taken seriously for a long time. Praising God for His work in you both and those who listen to this!! Hallelujah☀️💛

[@Accounting.zealots]

Great biblical principles on sexual purity, we thank God for platforms like dial in and living waters for helping us young men. To have biblical and practical teachings on sexual purity and righteousness. A very enlightening podcast. I have battled with lust for years and falling into such baits is tormenting to the conscience for a saved young person the illusion of false freedom from porn, mustarbation and lust are only pleasurable for a moment but they eat up your soul to spiritual death through condemnation

[@EnglishandFrenchOnline]

Thank you so much for your work! I've just purchased the Kindle version. Love and prayers from Hungary ❤ Blessings to your wonderful families, too! ❤❤❤

[@ashlymanosca]

"it's not the question of 'can we?' but 'WILL WE?'" True. We will always live a life of true repentance, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen and Amen. We have decided to follow Jesus. No turning back. NO TURNING BACK. 💯‼️

[@loganbaumstark8950]

Having Ray as a Father-in-law💯

[@Christy-zw7kr]

Please do a video on women and sexual sin 😢 we struggle in the shadows

[@lemonlemon5286]

Amen. That was a great conversation.

[@kajekebravin]

Thank you so much Be blessed for the help you have given us

[@joses8389]

Great conversation

[@rudolph1899]

Dial In is bringing the heat with this one. How do you deal with anxiety in regard to tattoos in the church?

[@andje_izidor_music]

Hallelujah! I'm gonna be victorious over sexual impurity by The Lord's strength in His Name. Amen!

[@baektix]

Thank you~ @AC

[@robertlaabs5066]

I use scripture to minimize my sin. 1 Corinthians 7:1-9, Proverbs 5:18-21 etc... Trying to be obedient to scripture I got married. I was never able to completely control my lust, so foolishly I "rushed" into marriage with a woman 👩 "I Thought" was a Christian. After she divorced me, about 5 years later, I married a woman 👩 singing Christian Music 🎶 in a Communist country. I thought for sure she loved 😍 Jesus. She was not honest "Benny Hinn" type Christian. Again I went to fast, assuming because of her music she was something she was not. She divorced me. 😭. I have a KZbin channel where I try and talk honestly about my struggles and disappointments. My KZbin is just under my name, Robert Laabs. Thank You for this message!

[@djashovel]

You know my problems actually opposite What of my biggest regrets is waiting for marriage I wasted years of my life And it brought me misery constantly If I Didn't Wait I Could have a few right now And I could actually be married or At least have a partner that i love That's why I'm done waiting

[@romangrayjr]

It's never a waste to do things God's way, regardless of the apparent dissatisfaction that the world's system would lay on you. In the Bible, King David said, "I was envious of the sinner when I saw his apparent prosperity and fulfillment. I almost let myself fall into it, but then I saw that it was a slippery place that leads to destruction.". Sounds like you are almost there.

[@djashovel]

​@romangrayjr its not the would or System its me as a person and It Being disrespection Yes Far from what I feel

[@BossBattle21]

Ironically, even though there is a lot wrong with "red pill" content, (just so much wrong) most of their problems are in the source and solutions of the issues they obsess over. Seeing how women treat men is part of how God has helped me battle lust and the associating sins.

[@michaelmcgraw4888]

Ask yourself this question next time you’re struggling: What am I trying to numb?

[@moisespina3513]

precisely, this afternoon I was battling with horrible lustful thoughts and it was extremely tight, I thought: how can I have such thoughts in my mind? but we´ve got a be aware that this is a serious war we´re in, I'd say that nowadays is more challenging to maintain sexual purity since our society has normalized porn and lust is everywhere as women now show more their bodies, so it requires a lot of discipline and bravery to stand against it. I was engaged with that trash for a long time but whom the son sets free shall be free indeed, may the lord help us overcome this and become more christ-like and make christ the most delightful thing in our lives, if you´re struggling with lust, remember the lord is with you on this and won´t let you alone, or if you´re a non-believer and you´re watching this sort of content deliberately, then I plead with you, please quit it totally, it´ll kill you and the consequences will be terrifiying. God bless you all guys let´s pray for each other and beat this down in the powerful name of christ.

[@oscar535]

I'm still severely addicted despite being a Christian for 1-2 years

[@moisespina3513]

@@oscar535 blessings bro, well I struggled with that for several years since the Holy spirit began to work in me, and I'm still in the battle, but if you really want to abandon it forever, then you must be radical bro as Jesús said: if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you, for instance in my case I had to leave the usage of social media platforms, I just use WhatsApp and KZbin for uselful and uplifting things. It's an issue of putting one thing that's more important than porn above, as they mentioned in this video that if Elon musk promised you to give you 100 million dollars if you don't watch porn during 6 months then you would be able to, or if at the very moment before watching porn some one points to you with a gun saying: if you click on that video I'll kill you, you'd stop immediately why? Cuz your life is much more valuable. So you know my dear brother that it is not a good sign for a Christian to be slave of sin, so we'd better make sure we've been born again, of course I'm not judging you even though it might sound like that, but I really care about you and love you in Christ, so does Christ, never forget that. I know what it is to fall again and over and over and how disappointing and disturbing may be. So I really wish that no one goes through the same thing I underwent when dealing with porn, cling to this promise: whom the son sets free, shall be free indeed. He's not a liar and it feels extremely satisfying to be on this side 💪, so can you. BTW there's a you tube channel called "I'm beggar" which has a video in regards to overcoming temptations, you must watch it, Those tips have helped me a lot at struggling with lust and many other things, I'll definitely be praying for you bro, and again never forget. Jesús loves you bro.

[@dnp1776]

Good chat. What about masterbation?

[@tony_lopez]

What about it?

[@BeholdingTheSavior]

I've wrestled with the concept for a long time. I often thought "I'm not looking at anything bad, so isn't it fine?" But I've personally been convicted that I was doing it because I didn't think God would help me endure the urges. I'm wanting to find opportunities to live out my faith, and one way for me to do that is by actively trusting God to give me self-control. But don't forget there's so much grace for those who want to please God! He knows we're weak, and he is pleased by even our smallest steps of faith. 'But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.' Galatians 5:22-24 'No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.' 1 Corinthians 10:13

Lust

[@michaellemmen]

Hello everyone I know the answer to this so you don't have to spend a half hour watching this: Stop sinning sexually You're welcome.

[@drexlspivey3047]

Not sure what's happening in these comments but having consensual sex isn't a sin or immoral. Stop being so gullible. Geez.

[@KentuckyBrad]

Read your Bible my friend and see the truth

[@HearGodsWord]

Drexl, I think you've misunderstood the video and comments.

[@avilalovee]

Why areent we talking about FASTING. The Bible states many times, we must be Fasting. Fasting strengthens our ability to have Discipline over our Flesh. And it also strengthens Discernment & the Ability to become more sensative to the Holy Spirit🪽

[@norrisadutwum2620]

Facts. Fasting and prayer is a powerful combination and it helped me a lot to break from different sins

[@ashlymanosca]

"no to morally neutral things." 🤍
