Christian Sinning again...

"There is none righteous; no, not one." And there is no man on earth that can keep you from sin. Even if you make yourself accountable to a person, that person cannot clean your heart and your mind from this thing. Only the power of the cross can do that. Depending on another person is legalistic and imperfect, so go to the Perfect Source who can change the inside. The answer is to pray and pray some more and listen to His answer. Sometimes He will take away the temptation, but other times He will strengthen us so we can resist. There may be something He is trying to teach you through this. Above all, trust Him. Read Romans chapter 8, then read I Corinthians 10:13. Your sincerity has been noted by God, you can believe that.

There are some sins that we do against our will and this would be what you are talking about. God understands and when we pray again and again not to do it, HE gives us strength. So the time between what you did this offense and the next time you do it would increase gradually. We all have tendencies to do certain things against God and Jesus Christ depending on our makeup, personality, etc. so no matter how bad you feel about your particular offence, others feel just as bad as they do about the ones they do. The unforgivable sin is that against the Holy Ghost, so just keep against God for the strength not to do that offense and HE will never disappoint you.

The Bible tells us the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. It also tells us that tempation is there and we will be tempted. So every morning, talk to Jesus ask his help and then when the temptation comes use Jesus own words "GET THEE BEHIND ME SATAN!" That has been the most helpful to me.

Everyone sins, no one is perfect. Ask for forgiveness. If this is really bothering your pastor or the head of your church. They might have some suggestions to help you with this addiction. They may now of someone else with the same problem that has overcome it and may be able to lead you in the right direction. Good luck and if you fall back Jesus will be there to lift you up.

We all sin now and then, even after we have accepted Christ. The trick is to form habits where sinning occurs less and less. This is why we so desperately neeed a relationship with the Lord. When I find I am tempted by sinful thoughts, I get my Bible out and begin a regular reading habit. A good daily habit like this will help keep your mind focused on God. Then, over time, you will begin to feel His presence once again. It is easy to slack off on my reading and prayer sometimes, and when I do I begin to feel the separation. Just like accepting the Lord was a simple decision, accepting Him everyday is a simple thing too. You have found that it is an awful feeling to have the separation. Run back to Him. I believe He is waiting for you.

I know what you mean I have this problem alot.. I wonder if God is finally going to say no she doesn't mean it when she says she is sorry and will not do it again.. and I fear he will give up on me.. but one thing I have noticed is that when I have finally screwed up for the last time I know it is the last time.. but I still thank God for his forgiveness and I say I am sorry for everything I have done in my past and I do not want to go back to those old ways...

Perhaps it will help to remember that we all sin, all fall short and that we can do nothing about it, only by grace, freely given are we saved. Pray and have faith not in your own ability but in God all the best urban

I hope you're thankful your conscience is bothering you. That means the Holy Spirit is working with you to get you on the right path. All Christians need to study God's word and as the Apostle Paul says in Romans 12:2 "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - His good, pleasing and perfect will." Then from the book of James 4:7 "Submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you."

There has never been more than one perfect person on earth - our Lord, Jesus Christ. Although it is part of Christianity to strive toward perfection, the human condition prevents us from achieving it. When you sin, Jesus doesn't desert you; He is standing beside you ready to carry you if necessary. Every person on earth sins multiple times every day, because even impure thoughts are sinful. Strive to do your best, but be honest with yourself and with God. Tell Him the problems you are having and ask for guidance. If your heart is open, He will provide the answers.

I think people in general Christians and non-Christians forget that we are only human.... We do make mistakes but that does not mean we are bad people..... My main problem is when I get angry I have a wagging tongue sometimes that causes me problems..... I feel so guilty not being able to control my tongue and temper...... It does not take place very often but too much for the way I should be acting as a Christian

I would say that you go and tell a person or two about this certain recurring sin. Be sure that these people you tell on are mature enough to handle your situation. Why do you need to tell? So that there could be accountability. When you feel like you're being tempted, then you can tell one of the two persons and you can hopefully overcome the temptation together. Of course, it is never easy to change a bad habit. But let us also remember that something like that, only God can help us. Pray to God about it. Ask for his help. It is good that you already know that you only have to ask for forgiveness and God will forgive. But remember, there could come a point where your sinning just won't cut it anymore. There is such a thing as sinning until you can't hear the Holy Spirit rebuking you anymore. That is scary and you should prevent that from happening to you.

Hi there. It's not really easy to stop the sin you used to do (especially when you were not yet a Christian). God never says that right then and there you should change. God asks a heart that is broken and repents before God. That's good that you feel that way, meaning you really want to change, but don't look down on yourself and feel really sad. God still honors your heart that repents. Let God change you and don't try to change yourself, because you won't be able to. Ask God for strength to resist temptation and ask God's guidance and always pray to him. Spend more time of God, because having more of Him, means having less of you (and your nature of sin). When you commit that sin again, just ask forgiveness from God and really repent. It's always process.

Look for someone you can be accountable to and tell them what you are going through and you can pray together about it and they can encourage you. The Lord is your strength

It takes a lot of time to correct our wrong doings specially when we are used to it,right? Anyway, no one is perfect unless your name is Perfecto lol! Just ask guidenance from your pastor or unto your church elder..do not be hesitant to ask advices from them. When you ask for forgiveness to our Lord, you must mean it.
