🤣 Amen! I love it!

Thot Thoughts slaying be epic 😡🤘

Cot - Caught❌ Thot - Thought✅

I too have been struggling with being a lukewarm Christian. I didn't even watch this for me but it opened my eyes.

The same with me.. Lackadaisical in alot of important areas on my life.. Thank's for writing exactly how I am/was... In Jesus Most Holy Name...

Ive been battling lust for almost 9 years and it has affected me so much. Only recently have I tried to free myself from this sin with no luck. I am afraid i will relapse again but I feel like that thought is not strong. Idk but I feel great after watching these Anthem videos

Jack Krauser fasting definitely helps a lot

yes, we must buffet our body and put under submission, if you indulge every desire of the body (like eat and sleep excessivly, lazyness, etc) the next step is fall into sexual imorality

AxBattler i fast for 24-72 hours. you see God take care of your mind during the fast

Fasting is something supernatural it cannot be done in the strength of the flesh, God will give you strength if you trust Him, but if you do in your own strength you will fail

Jack Krauser exactly Jack

Praying for ya bro. I know how hard it can be to stand in front of people and bring Gods word, or even prepare for that, when you have that guilt hanging over you. I also know that it always seems so much harder to resist in those times. Man, just know that in Christ you are covered, forgiven. There is no condemnation. By the spirit you have everything you need to win, but there is grace enough when you fail.

@@guzlemuzle don't be marveled at this because the Lord I serve can make stones talk I only mention this to reveal my inexperience in the field

harryye77 I didn't want to say it out loud, but I couldn't get past it!

I like to think that someone explained it to him, and Pastor John replied "well great! be gone to both thoughts AND thots!"

Oh you think it's easy? go ahead and try it!!

IN THE NAME OF JESUS!

Thank God for His Grace, we wld be lost w/o it.

I think piper uses ESV

eru san what agenda is he pushing here? Not to watch porn or give in to lust? Some verses can be perceived a stretch sure but it’s hard for me to think that there’s malintent here.

If you think his interpretation is incorrect, why not specify exactly where he was in error, so that we may all be edified?

eru san In the interest of accuracy and fairness, Piper, at no time, ascribed original intent to the specific context of porn and lust, but rather, he appropriately demonstrated the inherent admonition of Proverbs' didactic in the necessity of exerting perpetual effort in maintaining purpose & preventing disorder... which is sin - whether from vocation or production in bearing fruit of any context, including good works : its teleology (in which porn is the complete disorder of the Godly purpose for which it is the corruption of). This is simply and effectively a reiteration of John Owen: ".... make it your daily work; be always at it whilst you live; cease not a day from this work; be killing sin or it will be killing you." For upon consideration of your perspectives, the incorrect assertions of Piper's intent in each one are concerning : 1) "change the meaning of Proverbs... to push your own ideas" 2) "can't just read passage... & say, 'See, laziness causes lust!' " 3) "...desperately need... to reign in your charismania and agenda- pushing" -- this being from the implication that Piper doesn't have "godly" or "intelligent" men around him. Since it seems you're astute in understanding contextuality and other such aspects of literary assessment, the clumsy errors in your critique or "close reading" are curiously incongruent with that astuteness; for the quotations, their specific usage, and even the suggestive "tone" from which they're postered are all self-demonstrably fallacious (hence clumsy) and implicitly combative in such examples: "change... push... just read & say... desperately... charismania... agenda-pushing". Perhaps most curious is "agenda- pushing" because the astute/clumsy characteristic contrasts seem rhetorical. So in Christian charity and consideration, it's appropriate to allow you the clarification that would reconcile these seeming disparities in character. Sincerely

If you're just saying this cz you're feeling convicted and fighting it, then just say. Laziness is a fuel to sin. hence why self-control and other essentials are part of the fruit of the spirit because it requires WORK.

Scott Carter My geuss is you are right. But could you recap this on a sesame street level?
