I was going to say something .. and read 'Sounds like Something Satan would put in the Mind of a Carnal Christian "
Amen..

Well as far back as I can remember 3-4 years old.. I do not like being told you can not do that.. no one can do that. I can. Well bold haha and one can look at that as very foolish but I can through the king of kings lord of lords. There is nothing that is impossible for us that believe in trust in Jesus Christ who also is in us. We can do all things through Jesus Christ. HAHA I just now noticed the song playing "My Jesus.. let me tell you about my Jesus"

So its not what the world says or a name. Its the blood of Jesus Christ who died and rose. When He died we died when He rose we rose..do you know what that means? I had a Doctor that cut out this hard lump on my chest and said "you might be the one in a thousand" you know that it could be cancer or worse. No.. I don't receive that in Jesus name.. It will not be as she said. No never has been.

Christ said my sheep know my voice they do not hear listen to the voice of a stranger. So I will think on these things "Finally, believers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable and worthy of respect, whatever is right and confirmed by God’s word, whatever is pure and wholesome, whatever is lovely and brings peace, whatever is admirable and of good repute; if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think continually on these things [center your mind on them, and implant them in your heart]. "

If doubt comes.. I speak His word.. faith. If fear comes I speak His word.. no God has not given me the spirit of fear but of power and love and a "sound mind". Whom YOU the Son has set free IS free indeed. Remember there are so many thoughts we get every day that never once came from God. Its when we take that thought and play with it so to speak that it becomes ours and the enemy can then act.

When someone tells you about something they found out about themselves "I did pray and nothing changed it wont help". Oh my .. the song playing "God only knows what you've been through" what are the odds. God loves us so much.. when we tell Him that can do anything "what is to hard for the lord GOD said to Sarah". I love this.. you don't have any problems all you need is faith in God.

OH! and by the way ---Jesus took all sicknesses and diseases with him on the Cross -----there is no OCD ---stress --anxiety and worldly cares bring Dis--ease in the Body and DIS+EASE in the Body causes Disease today ------as Well as Satan who can put a thought in your mind that you have Religious OCD ----

Better get to know your Scriptures better --I say

Matthew 8:17
NLT
This fulfilled the word of the Lord through the prophet Isaiah, who said, “He took our sicknesses and removed our diseases.”


You Win or loose the Battle in the Mind

Yet, in order to say I’m judging, you’d also have to be judging. You’d do well to take your own advice. You are also incorrect about there not being no mental health problems, which shows you are absolutely clueless. Time to put you on the ignore list.

Here are some of them from Focus on the Family.

  • Intrusive negative thoughts about religion or moral issues.
Click to expand...
Well since i believe that there are many false preachers and churches preaching false doctrines i do sometimes have negative thoughts about false religion.. Justifiably so, Moral issues? not clear to me if your talking about moral issues within the churches or personal moral issues here?


I believe when we sin the Holy Spirit will convict us of it and that experience includes a moment of feeling guilty because we are in fact guilty of the sin that the Holy Spirit reveals to us.. Needless guilt? I believe once one has acknowledged their sin as sin to the Holy Spirit and has thanked the LORD for suffering on the cross to provide atonement for that sin then one should no longer be stuck in guilt feelings.. Faith means you believe the LORD has dealt with that sin.. It has been covered, wiped away by the Blood of the LORD and thus one's guilty feelings should disappear.


If you are a Christian then you should not be tormented by fears of punishment from God.. If you believe the LORD is washing you by the blood of His atonement there is nothing for God to punish you over..


That should be a concern... One should study the Gospel and know the way of salvation.. By doing so most of these other fears will be dispelled.. Also one should know the difference between a side issue of no salvational importance and a central core doctrine of salvation.. For instance some people interpret the scripture to say that woman should wear head coverings in church, while others believe the scriptures state that woman have no need to wear head coverings in church.. A persons stance on such an issue will have no bearing on their salvation either way.. But if someone denies that Jesus was crucified on the cross then that is a core salvation doctrine and ones stance on that will effect their eternal state..


That's a legitimate concern.. But if one is right with the LORD, meaning if one believes Jesus and trusts 100% in the atonement He secured on the cross for their salvation then making a mistake about going to a church that preaches some wonky doctrines will not cause that person to lose their salvation..


Self examination is not a bad thing but yeah obsessive self observation will lead only to depression.. Remember you are FORGIVEN by the LORD Jesus so start forgiving yourself and stop placing impossible perfection goals on your shoulders.. Jesus do your best and let the LORD take care of the rest..


  • Doubt about whether your ethical choices truly are for the greater good.
    Click to expand...
Pray to God about them.. And you can always post here on CC about each particular situation you are having doubts about..


That's an easy one to beat.. The answer is that you are NOT a good person.. No one is a Good person.. Only the LORD your God is Good Jesus made that clear in the Gospels.. And that's the reason why we need the loving atonement of the LORD Jesus to cover us for all the times we have failed to be good and all the times we shall fail to be good into the future till the day we die.. So throw off this fixation with being good because you are never going to become good by your own efforts.. Trust in the LORD Jesus and on the day of Judgment you will be DEEMED to be Good / perfect / without sin..
