"The only advice that I see clearly is that you should dwell in love...."

a person sent me this in his reponce to a thread i posted. my question is how to i dwell in peace. i feel that when i try to live a sinless life that i am doing it in vain because it doesn not feel real, but when i continue doing what i am doing while having Christ on my heart i feel like i am worthless, as though i am letting God down. i don't like either one of these feelings. i want to strive to be more Godly like but i do not want to fake it. i want to feel like i am making genuine progress. i feel alone unless i am on here. ya'll are truly my only friend with whom i can be ,completly free and myself, flaws and all. thank you for that. and please help. God bless

its the same again... you cannot be perfect and sin free until you get to heaven one day... God knows you sin.. thats why he died for you! to pay the price so that you can have a relationship with him. when you sin, he can forgive you. all you can do is try, and dont beat urself up over sinning. be sorry, but dont hate yourself.

i know you requested prayer for this a few days ago, but i have not been on cc for a few days and i wanted to let you know i have prayed for you. please remember that even us christians were born is sin - that is our nature - so sin may feel right but the more and longer you live in God's will, the more you will know that what you are doing is real. remember the devil is tricky - do not let him make you think that you are just "playing" at being a christian!

Why do people ask questions with the guise of misleading others? Oh wait, that's what a lower level minion does...that's right....


Here's a three step program for ya:

1: Repent.

2: Trust God.

3: Know Christ.

If these are not the last days, I don't really know what the last days might be like.

The internet has made people mean, vain, attracted to sin, disloyal, and totally perverted, twisted.

It's like this:

There are people that would have never meet if it where not for the internet.

Exchanged ideas, encouraged wicked behavior and thought patterns like back how it was before the flood.

It makes sense to me how this is unfolding, but when I talk to others, that just cannot see it.

There is a verse in the Bible that says "I will have to cut the days short, because even the elect would be tricked"

MATTHEW 24:24
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect.



That to me, is pretty serious......

Try visiting one of the atheist chat room and talking sense to some of those folks, they are beyond deceived, they are teaching other to be ok with sin. I chatted with this one buddhist for about 30 minutes back and fourth. It was like I was talking to the devil himself. He was very crafty. I tried to catch him off guard, relate with him, but he was so assured in his beliefs It was amazing. I was thinking what he was going to tell God when he stands before the Throne.

I asked him towards the end when the others started telling me to shut up, "they all attacked me it was very obvious i was hitting nerves..(but I expected it so it didn't phase me)....to just pray tonight and that I would pray for him. To just try it. But, I really started to think about that one verse. This dude was convinced that there was no afterlife. period, and that we just go to sleep....and that was it...so enjoy the moment...

I asked myself, how does someone go to bed at night, thinking that? How do they sleep easy? then is hit me, when the devil has you, he leaves you alone and then gives you words to trick other non-believers into SIN.

People under estimate how persuasive the devil has and his demons really are. They trick us by playing with our hearts and mind, out lust's and desires. It ridiculous. I am quite convinced that celebrities,writers, directors, musicians and the "like" are powered by demons.

That's why people make fun of "casting out demons" is because they know it's true and don't want you to know it....If everybody started doing that, I am telling you.....something would really happen.


Do you know in the end of my conversation with that buddhist all "he" really cared about was sex...that was it...
It made me sad. I thought how perverse that really was. Using "higher planes of thought" but he was really just a pervert. I thought about how so many people are really like that with all manner of religions and spirituality" But God loves him to...that's the thing, I really was lead to witness to him.

anyway, I still think there are people that need to be saved, and God is not going to close the final curtain, until they are reached. So you can say what you want, I know he wants all his Lost back.

NOW, the only thing I am wondering is, what is really going to happen to all those lost people? Those people that HURT and then tricked into living in unrepentant sin.

I know what GOD says, but the I think HE looks at the Heart and searches it. If He finds love there, He saves them, if HE finds blackness and SIN, with no remorse...well...


See for me, man....I have been HURT and allot of people get HURT. That's where it begins. The root cause is always unforgiveness.


They either forgive or not. I must FORGIVE all...


I think that is the main issue. Forgiveness. Without that all is lost.


Fight the good fight if you are a true believer, but like most of the internet online folks, I have seen the devil really come out of people online in various platforms in various environments.

I cannot help but think, it's all apart of the wheat and the tares process. The Harvest. Perhaps the internet really is apart of God's overall plan.


Another thing that just struck me, "When you are in the grip of sin, and cannot break out, it takes some type of wake up call to happen usually.

The issue is not living s sinless life, this is impossible. That is just another reason to justify sin. Period. that's it.

Jesus Christ, is the only way to break out of the GRIP of sin, and then the person "snaps of out it"
becomes SANE.

I was thinking about one of those zombie movies that seems to be kinda on the rise. Do you know some of the sickest minds I have chatted with was in the online games? I played allot of online games, and do you know what, I don't play them anymore. Do you know why? God has removed the desire from my Heart to play those games anymore.

Has anyone seen the progression of games? They are becoming more and more evil and sick and as well as the players of those games. It's a very strong pull once you are in the middle of it.

But the thing is this, if someone reads this, and in is the grip of playing those games,or in the GRIP of another sin that they really ENJOY, they reject all of what I am saying, but you see, I have been there, I have been in the midst of it. Blind to it's affects.What happened to me is that GOD took things away from me....He loved me enough to do it. I can see it now, back then when it was happening I could not see it...but now I can...Even now I am realizing some things about me that I need to change....

It's amazing when you try to help other, you often get more help than they receive....

God has brought me out of some really tough spots, and for some reason the devil really stays after me. I am not sure why?

Sometimes I feel he tempts me beyond my strength, I am just so GLAD that I always come back to Jesus Christ...
