I am off to bed, but I wanted to say Hi to all those I love dearly. I have been praying for all of His Children. And I pray for those who are called to be His Children as well. Monnkai - Jesus tells us today is the day of Salvation ... at some point it just has to happen by your wills choice to believe and receive the free gift. And to accept dying unto life - being born again. It will cost you nothing less than everything, but it is worth it! Because He is a loving God. Experiencing dying to the right to yourself is a grander thing than offering it; but I leave you to testify to that fact. I have already testified to that fact in my life...but it is possible and will happen in Christ Jesus for all of His Children.

And to this I say as well - AMEN AND AMEN - and we praise the name of Jesus our King! :)

Ephesians 2:8 New International Version (NIV)
8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God...

What slave said, it’s a gift, a free gift given by God through His Son who died for you and I. That’s the Gospel, Jesus Christ - He’s taken all of our burdens but it’s up to you to accept the gift of Salvation and only God can change you.
Yes I know that.....Sometimes I think I have changed. And its not like I can give him more then everything I have. But then I start to backslide and im suddenly the same creep I once was.

This is the song that comes to mind when ever I fall down this rabbit hole....Suits me to a T

Greater is He who is in you however than he that is in the world! Do you trust that? It is not about you, it is about Him in you! But He will transform you as you trust Him as well - its just the fruit of Christ - that being yourself found in the disposition of Christ Jesus. Let go and let God transform you in love.

I already did...multiple times....still nothings changed. Im still lazy and im still selfish. And Im still addicted to porn and full of constent fear
I don't bet but if i did i can bet you have never gone for alter calls as much as i have.... Not even the devilish things i used to do... My mum and siblings called me the destroyer.. I almost pulled my sisters hair off her head, I once slapped her and she bled on her cheeks and some other private things but look at me today.... If you look at me now, you would never imagine i used to do those things and more.... Jesus is willing to accept you, all you have to do is to surrender and this time it's not your usual lazy halfway surrendering... Full time and wholeheartedly... Jesus will accept you no matter how many times but wouldn't it be better to save him the trouble by doing it one LAST time but this time... wholeheartedly and commitedly

Well...I still have no clue how to go about doing that. Im hoping I am saved and Im just having a little emo fit tonight. When I did give myself to God a few years ago an amazing feeling eveloped me for a few weeks. All that was on my mind was God and all my fear melted away. And amazingly enough I stayed off of porn for four months straight after that!....so yeah maybe it already happened and Im just missing that feeling of peace

Hello Dan... How's you?

I'm doing well - I hear you have been thru some dreaming experiences - what do you think the Word of God would highlight in that dream which would be clear and orderly in reference to Spiritual truth?

Jesus doesn't say, in Him we will maim the flesh but rather kill the things of the flesh in our lives... this is where God will take you in transforming you. But it takes a life of righteousness to get there. We must go thru life experiences which He will ask of us to offer to Him, tough battles I might add, and we must obey Him immediately, but as we do - He will empower us as we become decisive in the matter to follow Him...

Praying for you bro, God loves you dearly and if you have that conviction of having Him back in your life then really think about it okay. We love you too :)

Since the Word is a clear path to Himself; how does your dream match up to Scripture in way of His Spiritual truths found in the Bible? And in the message found thru the Holy Spirit in you?

Yes, there is a stage of victorious bliss at first, and then God begins to build your character from death to life...experientially. This is a new road to travel and a tough one, but Jesus promises His burden is light and His yoke is easy as your Lord. But the experience of dying to yourself is still a battle to recon with indeed while being empowered by God into the success of Himself as your new Creation..
