This comment I surely liked. I mean if I'm not mistaken even the Apostle Paul told us that he was a prince of sinner for the things he's done. But I know for sure this is a sanctification journey!

There is a way to crucify the flesh, but obeying God's laws will never crucify it . Human willpower is completely unimpressive to God since He doesnt need willpower to be holy

holy shit. i needed this. willpower.. is depending on our own strength. The flesh. Thats interesting

Umm.. but it doesn’t. That’s just false advertising saying it will rid desire for sin. The fact of the matter is that it doesn’t disappear

you don't trust Jesus to save you if you think you have to repent of your sinful works to be saved.

Facts amen

At least you didnt get addicted to fentanyl like I did. I am sober now but I have fallen further then anyone. It scares me as I dont want to go to hell. I repent

Jesus is the only way. We have all sinned and deserve Hell. Sins that may seem small in our eyes are big in God's and are worthy of Hell, such as lying lusting and stealing. But if we repent and trust only in Jesus, he is faithful and will save us from Hell and give us eternal life in Heaven. Trust in Jesus! John 3:16 Romans 6:23❤😊❤❤

@@christianweatherbroadcasting I keep stumbling with a sin and it makes me wonder if I even know my lord Jesus. I need to stop it as I dont want to miss out on paradise.

Amen, brother. God bless ❤

Isn't it supposed to bring peace of mind?

This is just not true. Greater faith brings more inner peace and joy and rest. It does not bring more feelings of inadequacy; with faith, you know that you are 100% adequate in God’s eyes because of what Jesus did. He does not see you as wretched. He’s already forgotten all of your sins and shortcomings according to Hebrews 8:12.

@@maximeb190there’s a difference between conviction and condemnation. One is form God one is from Satan.

Amen!

I am scared sometimes about my faith because I have so little fruit and I was on fentanly 10 months ago, I almost died when i tried to kill myself by slitting my wrists and eating 700 morphine pills. I have known Jesus since a kid and I have had the pleasure of leading about 10 to christ but addiction and my sin sent me to hell in the dtes of vancouver. I feel like I am the worst christian. My bible study tells me I am saved but I was rebellious for so many years. I dont know why I wrote this I just did. Peace to you from canada I hope to see you in paradise.

​@planes3333 use Christ to conquer your addiction. The longer time you can put together, the more fruit that you will produce. Learn to forgive those who hurt you and you will start to forgive yourself, as Christ forgives you for your sins.

@@Bucephalus84 I had some very evil satanic enemies that threatened to kill me and they sent people to beat me up, funny thing is the enforcer who was sent to hurt me I used to box with so he didnt want to hurt me. God prepared a table before me in the presence of my enemies. I am just feeling lost a bit these days, I sometimes wonder if I truly know jesus with all my sins.

​@@planes3333can you elaborate? Back in 2022 i made satanic enemies, my brother sold dope for these people and after he died they told me i was gonna sell dope for them. The first thing they told me was i had to renounce God, i wasnt willing because obvious reasons. Disclaimer i did not mention anything to do with God before they told me that. They literally started trying to tempt me, it was so weird. When i said no they got very threatning, told me i wasnt going to my brothers funeral, that i wasnt going back to work, back to my home state, that i wouldnt be able to leave my house. They told me i was going to go crazy if i didnt do this for them, that i was going to lose all my friends. I was pretty shaken up, these were supposed to be my friends and i could not believe what was happening, what was coming out their mouths. It was like all the friends i thought i knew had suddenly become possessed and im not unconvinced that thats not what happened. I was praying that night, i cried out to God because i knew i wasnt ready to stand before Him. One of them asked me straight up, after everything that happened, you still think you going to heaven? I told God if i lived after that night i would never mess with dope again. I literally felt God touch me, my ears started ringing so loud and for so long i couldnt help but look up and think thats God. In that moment i knew for sure what i was dealing with was supernatural, but that revelation gave me enough hope and strength to tell them to get out my house. They left, and i packed my bags and moved back to my home state where my brothers ashes were sent to. I went to the funeral, got my hands on a gun and took it with me because these same people were reaching out to my family on facebook and stuff like nothing had ever happened, talking about what good friends they were of my brother and i, they kept spamming my messenger and saying subversive things that i knew were threats disguised as normal conversation, things that i couldnt really prove so i was mostly alone through all of this, only a handful of close people who knew me believed me. I had literally no hope my brother was dead, my friends turned against me, i had a new revelation of heaven and hell and God, and i felt condemned because it was sin that got me to that point, i didnt know if i was going to live or die, i was so tempted to take matters into my own hands, but i knew if i did my life was over anyways. So heres what i did, i stopped worrying about it, i found a church, i got a bible, i started following God. I lost everything. My job, my truck, my home, my friends, but I gained God and i started following him and everything I lost he restored two fold. Found my wife in Christ, Lord blessed me with a wife and a son, and a house for my family, a spirit filled church, and to make the whole thing even crazier the man my brother sold dope for who had made my life hell for a breif time was dead only a few months after he was. Its been almost two years, and i should not be where im at. I had hit literally no hope when i came home, i had enemies, i had not much money, and i lost just about everything but the Word of God will never come back void, if you trust Him, if you lean on God, and turn from sin towards Jesus, God will be there.

I fell that way, I‘m 25 and can‘t wait to be free from my flesh. I want to live and at the same time to die because of my flesh…

Amen, thank you, Jesus!!

❤amen

I am off fentanyl for 10 months and I survived eating 700 morphine pills and slitting my wrists. I should be dead but the huge slashes in my wrists would not bleed they coagulated and I was unable to die, praise Jesus. I am so ashamed of what I did to myself I was in psychoses thinking my enemies were going to torture me for hours so I got scared and tried to get home to Jesus. I dont know how I could be so stupid. I have just given up on lust and I am sober so I feel like I am doing my best to serve god, but man I am haunted by the past. My bible study says I am saved as I question my salvation all the time, (how could I sin so much and love Jesus) I am like a whitewashed tomb or a fake pharisee. Thanks for your message I feel like you really helped me. Peace from canada, again thanks I pray you will be at peace.

Amen I really needed to hear that message you wrote. I have been off fentanyl for about a year and I almost died many times in vancouver when i was on it. I am no staying at my moms house and I have just repented of lust and porn and I am on about day 4 trying to be pure again. I feel its the fear of hell and the lord thats helping me try to be good. I am 50 now though and I feel like I have wasted my life. I feel so much better now though after deciding to try and not be lustful. I am trying to forgive my enemies and to be happy but honestly so many painful memories and frustrations make me kind of miserable, I hope things change soon as I feel pretty wretched. The enemy reminds me of all my sins and now I feel so bad about the sins I did in the past when I didnt care so much. I guess when we were the worst in our sin christ died for us, sometimes I think I have sinned too much and god will spit me out of his mouth for being too luke warm. Peace from canada thanks again for your message I resonated with it. Jesus is king

Amen!

Amen

Thank you. I pray god allows his wisdom on this subject to soak into our souls

Wrong church ⛪️ mixes the 2 main gospels and won’t look grace ambassadors n Jim brackin n Ron knight n steave Atwood n Jim devney n Richard Jordan n Lesfeldick ministries explains 😮

I think Jesus counts his heart ❤

The beta doesn't read comments , so he won't see yours..

@@liltrue8420 Bro grow up and quit calling people a beta. We’re all humans and that’s dehumanizing.

You aren't alone, I've been feeling this way too. Keep the faith, keep striving to be the best you that you can possibly be. Let your light shine for all the world to see, whilst we walk together in the valley of the shadow of death. We shall fear no evil because he is with us. No matter how worthless we feel, he sees our heart and he knows our worth. That humility and acceptance of how broken we are only draws us closer to him. How excellent is his name that delivers us from sin and shame!? The battle is already won, In Jesus we have that victory. Yet the war isn't over until we are finally released from the prison of this mortal coil. Death will be a sweet release into freedom and peace once and for all. Do not fear death, embrace it! By this i do not mean that we should seek death on our own terms but we should find comfort in knowing that when we do eventually die that we will finally have relief from our burdens. The road is long and treacherous but you are never alone, have courage we will be victorious. I urge you to read the Pilgrims promise or find the film adaptation inspired by the book written by John Bunyan. The book is second only to the bible in its number of sales worldwide. It brings hope to the believer, just like the word of God because is inspired by it.

“a god” I mean no disrespect. But he is God. The one and only true God. Not “a god”

⁠​⁠@@Christian_counseltotally agree with you brother 🙌🏼

Amen! Imma feeling the same way!

Me to

Same here brother pray for me and I'll pray for you

this is very inspiring. you got this. do not grow tired of doing what is good for you

Check out an AA meeting or a church recovery program that works the 12 steps. It’s all biblically based. Recovery is hard but it’s the only way to live if your an addict. My addiction has been marijuana and extreme lust addiction. I’ve caused a lot of pain. May have lost my wife and ripped apart my family. But the 12 steps and the fellowship with fellow addicts is changing my life and bringing me closer to God. In fact it brought me from atheism to Christ

What people don’t get is that if you recognize Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior accepting him as your only true God believing in him and repenting of every sin, then you are forever saved. We are saved through grace alone, all we literally have to do to be saved foreveer eternally to go to heaven is to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ like I listed above and you’ll be saved. If you are a born again Christian you are forever saved regardless if you sin again and again, we all sin, we aren’t perfect like God, regardless if we are Christians. Just know that regardless if you sin you are eternally sealed just try your best to not sin. There will be amny false teachers today that will say you are not saved witj grace but by works that in order to go to heaven you’ll have to do works but that’s not what gets you to heaven, Jesus Christ gets you to heaven just by believing in him. So whoever says otherwise is a false teacher.

Hello, you have to understand be careful with what cliffe is saying, even though cliffe is a really good apologist he gets the salvation concept wrong, we are saves theough grace ONLY through believing in Jesus Christ, The Bible states so clearly that if you out your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ you are saved, thats LITERALLY ALL you have to do. Believe that Jesus Christ is the only true God your Lord and savior and you will be saved. Literally that simple, many false teachers overcomplicate things and spread a false gospel but saying you need to work to get to heaven and that is leading many Christians aeay from their faith, Be aware of false teachers that spread a different gospel. We are not perfect like God to be sinless, EVEN if we repent from all sins and recognize Jesus Christ as our Lord and try our best to avoid sin, we are ALWAYS going to fall to our own flesh in every way, we are just NOT perfect at all compared to the Lord himself, but don’t let that discourage you because even IF you sin and give in to the flesh, you are still eternally secure. All we have to do is try our best to change for the better good snd let go of old habits and if we fall to our flesh its alright get back up and stand strong and fight. We never lose our salvation when we sin as a born again christian, ofc we shouldn’t take advantage of God’s gift of free salvation through Jesus Christ in a bad way knowing that jsut becayse I am eternally secure doesn’t mean I should now go to nightclubs and do drugs but I should better myself now that I am secure and work on my habits to better myself as a child a God.

@@Mttumasov thank you

​@@kage8969 Notice the stipulation he says, if Jesus is your Lord and your savior. Listen to the conviction of the Holy Spirit. Pray and make the necessary changes he tells you to.

What are you doing??

@@israeliteonlycampkilluhi.o2108 What do you mean

Naah man Our salvation is 100% based on Jesus Christ's work on the cross Not even a bit from our works That's the whole point

Jesus paid it ALL

Uhhh if you improved nothing you’d be perfect by the blood 🤨 Christ doesn’t need filthy rag works to make us perfect

@@Godisgood137 I see what both of you are saying and both are not wrong . but remember works without faith is dead, you need faith in Jesus Christ for your works to be any good. Look up James 2:26 please, it gives better words than I

You’re “improvement” has zero to do with perfection. You are only made perfect by the blood. You do NOT understand the gospel. Ask the Holy Spirit for revelation 🙏

@@kingwolford515Works are a byproduct of relationship with the Holy Spirit but our perfection was bought and paid for 2000 years ago by Christ alone. This is basic fundamental Bible doctrine. We should NEVER confuse the two or we will be feeling sorry for ourselves just like George. The Bible says live in joy and love because of Christ in you. We put our faith in Christ’s behavior or we will perish in our own wretched behavior. If you don’t have that as core belief you will have poor relationship with God that will manifest in low self worth and condemnation 💯

Almost everyday tho I learn more and more of what it takes to be a true Christian, it’s definitely not an easy walk, I can definitely say that, but sometimes I remind myself, “soon this will get easier and I’ll look back and be disgusted with my old self” Sanctification is a Process and one of Patience, but it’s time I stop focusing on my sins and start focusing on God tbh

Literally how I feel bro, everyone that knows me when they see me in person are like “yo bro God is good I’m so happy your doing good for yourself n doing better” n deep down me n God know I’m still dealing with things like lusting, porn addiction n lying for stupid reasons. Like u said I have transformed so much tho like I’m way calmer now n less prone to get angry, I stopped the drugs im a much better person now than I was before but then I look at all the aspects that I’m still struggling with n at times I just can’t help but cry out to God just begging him to take this flesh away from me cuz even tho I know it’s wrong, I still do wrong n it just pains me after I do wrong. I told God this is my suffering is this addiction of porn n I just wish he could stop the free will in those moments n control me so I don’t give in in those moments but God has told me “this is what is going to build your character, make you stronger n one day you will use this testimony to help others” Even tho that’s not the answer I wanted to hear, I see the good in that. I’m just thankful that he’s so merciful n always forgiving even when I mess up I just wish I could just let this go so easily but through time n the power of God I will overcome.

@@d.a.pofficial2316 that flesh and free will part hits so hard bro, I think about that so much like dang you can force your will if you want to because I KNOW mine isn’t the way and I really WANT to follow His will too

@@d.a.pofficial2316this comment feels like i wrote it. i am going thru the exact same thing and i just want it to be easier because i keep failing. i wish God would just make me obey Him. it’s been hard lately so hearing that someone else is going thru it makes it more comforting in a weird kind of way. good luck on your journey, brother.

right there with you brother! you guys are not alone. ​@@icebreak_5

God forgives but you need to make sure you get closer to him so you wont watch porn again. Pray and learn more about by watching videos about God here on youtube . God be with you ❤

dont focus on your actions and addictions focus on building a relationship with god if you do that he will always forgive you

If you believe in the Lord Jesus you are eternally secure!! Pursue him but there’s nothing you can do the work was already done at the cross. Praise God

Jesus instituted the Sacrament of Confession in John 20:22-23 for a reason-He is giving His apostles, who are the first priests of the Catholic Church, the authority to forgive sins. This is why we have the Sacrament of Confession in the Catholic Church, Jesus uses His priests to forgive us of our sins in a “tangible” way-meaning once we hear the priest say “I absolve you of your sins in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” we know it actually happened and don’t have to question it (semantics aside). In order to receive this beautifully cleansing Sacrament, however, one must be a part of the Catholic Church. Definitely something to think about and look deeper into my friend. God bless you.

Fun fact about forgiveness: it just is. You can't mess it up and you can't deserve it. Strive to be better but Jesus already forgave ALL your sins, including future sins

The quote he is talking about is Matthew 5:20. It's basically saying that no one is good enough on their own to go to heaven. Not even the scribes and Pharisees, who were thought of as the most godly. We have to trust in Jesus, the only One who is righteous enough, to save us, not ourselves. I hope that was helpful.
