There is no hope whatsoever at all in a legalistic, law keeping sinless perfectionist dogma........and most of us have heard the horror stories.....it is ridiculous to set standards that NONE can meet and then tie their eternal salvation to said standards that NO ONE can possibly meet.....one must keep every rule, law, regulation 24/7/365 in these legalistic religions of bondage or have no hope.....they struggle and struggle and then fail and start at square one only to find themselves back a square one a day/week/hour/month later...beating themselves up spiritually.....instead of victory in Christ their is constant failure in religious religionism........
And this is where Pharts false gospel will lead anyone who follows his dogma. If you find yourself in a legalistic church run do not walk to the first exit, and the excuse of, well "they were so loving" does not work. This is why it is so shameful what Phart is teaching here because as Decon has already pointed out, it will lead people into spiritual abuse, strife and you will lose your Joy in the Lord.

Praise to God for a Living Hope

"These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls." 1Peter1:7-9

Thank you Decon for bringing a bright light to a legalistic false gospel, and ultimately a false Christ.

That is what the mod had to say to PHart on the thread PHart keeps harping about.
Hmm....didn't see this until now...

UNBELIEVER ALERT! UNBELIEVER ALERT!

You have so horribly misrepresented and added to my view on this matter that I have no choice but to consider you an unbeliever, because that's what unbelievers do to believers. There is hardly a shred of accuracy in what you say. And this despite the fact that I've clarified much of this with you but you still refuse to listen.

An amazing place we've come to in the church. It's now okay for the people of God to watch other people perform explicit sex acts on each other. Wow! And the one's who say you should not do that are actually the one's in the wrong. Amazing.
Keep up with the legalistic, judgemental, holier than thou approach and you may become the first non-single person to be invited to stay out of Singles.
That's all I needed to know about this forum. Thank you for pointing this out. This is not a Christian forum. I'm out.

Some Christians believe the right way to live is being extra judgemental and hating anything everyone does. And then people wonder "why are many turning away from Christianity?" It's not the people refusing to accept the truth, the problem is people forgetting to love one another

Struggling with sin is one thing. Purposely indulging it and deciding it isn't sin is quite another.

When the church decides that willfully and purposely viewing pornography is not sin, and those who call it out are the wrong ones, then we know we're at a bad place. The one thing unbelievers hate is hypocrisy. The hypocrisy of the church is what drives unbelievers away more than the church's steadfast conviction of the truth. This forum is proving how corrupted the church has become. It's worse than I thought.

Farewell after all PHart..

I would not say it is not a Christian forum based on personal feelings my dear.. you have an opinion but even mods will have one too.. right or wrong is for us each to consider.. but we need not speak against the whole Forum.

GOD Bless you in your walk of Faith.

I'm not going by personal feelings. You more than most others here will remember that it was the remnant that did not worship Baal. Most here are condoning purposeful and willful watching of pornography. Yet they consider themselves part of the remnant. I don't see repentance and contrition on the part of the participants in this forum. That tells me a lot about this forum.

Don't have a downer.

We often find that people will focus on what they struggled with and try to convey how bad it is. They do this because they know how much it messed with their own life.

So in a sense they are trying to help even if they don't convey it properly.

Like many people on this thread.
It just utterly disgusts me that people ge and or stay lost because people name themselves holier than the pope and destroy the body of Christ with their destructive arrogant vessel.
I just cant stand manipulative people. Just as bad as people who practice witchcraft. It drives me up the wall

I learned a very long time ago, not to let people move me, especially fellow Christian people.

I also learned that the only predictable thing about Christian People is their unpredictability
Well it just moves me because if i had been approached the way he approaches people, it would have made my decision for God harder and he is a solid example of a person who gives us a bad name

Yes, pray that God will show me the light and I will see it's okay to watch pornography and to resist anyone who says it's not okay to watch it.

I am amazed that you think it's okay for Christians to watch pornography. But I get it.......that's where the church is at this present time. I blame the church leadership for not preaching the whole gospel that keeps people who don't really want to be changed and who just want the 'get out of jail free' card out of the church.

Hmm.....viewing naked people engaging in explicit sex acts. Oh, my bad. I thought that was porn.

Come to your senses. You haven't heard the whole gospel.

Where are the people who came to Christ because they hated who they were and what they did and not only wanted to be forgiven for what they've done and who've they've been but wanted to be different people too?

You are just venting,noone except maybe tommy have I seen encourage or condone,pornography,yet you act as if we have,this is where we split ways spiritually because you are looking for fault and grasping at straws desperately where as we are just "disappointed" because you feel the need to randomly seek out at and hurt others by interjecting not only in this thread but multiple threads and pushing what you believe on us,that's nothing more than "being aggressively forceful and harassing" for you are casting stones around when you don't have rhyme or reason but to be a nuisance and stumbling block to others,and now you lurk around waiting to be free from this site when you can leave anytime,I trust the mods here and have seen them do their job with efficiency and decent judgement,you just want to add to people's pain you have inflicted,otherwise you wouldn't linger so.

Wow, saying purposely viewing pornography is a sin is just me 'pushing what (I) believe'? You're kidding, right?

Any professing believer defending porn needs to repent, or, if not, their church needs to step up with church disciplinary actions.
