The Church Fathers teach us how to combat evil thoughts. The epidemic of mental ill-health is partly the fruit of the harm caused by evil thoughts.

We are not alone. Remember that we cannot overcome without the help and support of Jesus, Mary and the saints and angels. We must call on them since alone the demons are more powerful beings who will deceive us.

Thank you Father I was struggling with thoughts of impurities and thought of striving to be closer to Jesus. I run to the rosary just after a few I am stronger in resesting that temptation. I am always tempted by my desires. But I do want to have a closer with my blessed savior. I learn from your talks thank you.

I would appreciate a little guidance on how one combats evil, particularly in these times, without becoming evil in the process, because in nearly all cases, action begins with thought. Thank you for taking the time to speak to us.

I too struggle, but if you keep your faith and your walk in Christ, He, Christ Himself will keep you righteous. It is a constant battle, but your righteousness is found in Christ, not in yourself. Remain in Christ through prayer, fellowship, the Word. It's a constant battle for me in my thoughts when it comes to lust, even violent thoughts. Be strong in Christ

1 Corinthians 3:18-23 Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you considers himself wise in this age, let him become a fool so as to become wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in the eyes of God, for it is written: “He catches the wise in their own ruses,” and again: “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.” So let no one boast about human beings, for everything belongs to you, Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or the present or the future: all belong to you, and you to Christ, and Christ to God.

You have to Repent and believe the gospel. Jesus said Unless you repent you shall all likewise perish. Jesus said not those who say Lord Lord but those who do the will of the Father. Many shall say to me Lord Lord, but I shall say to them depart from me you who work iniquity I never knew you

@PeterBornAgain 11 ай бұрын

Romans 1:21-23 Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn’t worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. As a result, their minds became dark and confused. Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools. And instead of worshiping the glorious, ever-living God, they worshiped idols made to look like mere people and birds and animals and reptiles.

** ** TIME HAS RUN OUT !! John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Don't ignore this message !! REPENT NOW !! God the Son - JESUS came in the flesh to die for sinners. TRUST that God raised JESUS from the dead !! By FAITH accept JESUS's blood alone as payment for your sins unto Salvation, to escape what's about to happen !! Don't say you were not warned !! ONLY true believers in JESUS will be suddenly taken. THEN comes 7 horrific years of God's JUDGEMENT, poured out on the world. I pray that the LORD will open your eyes and heart to the GOSPEL.
