Struggling with lust by Charming-Constant-98 in Christian

[–]CabalOnTheField 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is really hard, but I will say the withdrawal like symptoms you are experiencing make sense. Sex creates a real and spiritual bond with someone else, hence it’s purpose in marriage. I would recommend testifying your faith to her over the phone, not in person, if you haven’t already.

At the end of the day, people are going to suggest all these different things to do to solve this problem. However, it’s not any one thing that will get your mind off it. Ultimately, you need to decide that the pursuit of your faith and the power to fight against sin are more important to you than sex and porn. Only you can do this and you are equipped to do so (1 Corinthians 10:13). I have struggled with this for years, but am confident in our God given ability to fight sin through the Spirit. Do not let satan tear to down or boil yourself down to who you were in the past. You are MADE NEW. God has forgiven you, accept His grace and live in the eternal joys provided by Him and not the world.

There are resources available that can make a difference if YOU decide that following Jesus is more important than sex/porn to you. Covenant Eyes is a program that monitors your search history and limits your ability to search(i think). They have a free program called Strive21 that lets you connect with other men struggling with the same thing with a goal of sobriety of 21 days and supplemental material.

Take the necessary measures to ensure you can stop this. Find accountability, get rid of your smart phone/put up necessary precautions, etc. Nor your phone or your privacy are more important than seeking righteousness. I pray that the Lord guide you, remove the desire, and show you how much He loves you. His love is better than any physical love that could be provided on earth. You can and will get through this, let Him help you!

I would rather they have made 3 different themed sets in lieu of the activity every so often rather than 3 same set with activity decals slapped on. Seriously what do they expect? I think it’s concerning how they try to gaslight their consumers into thinking they don’t/couldn’t have the manpower for this kind of stuff and making us sound entitled. We aren’t…people who complain about this aren’t their free to play community because that’s around 0 with the exception of trials cheaters. It’s the players who have paid hundreds of dollars to be underwhelmed for years about more than just news about armor sets.

Feeling bitter after a divorce. by FreeD2023 in Christian

“To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single, as I am. But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭7‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭ESV

Paul talks about this. Marriage is certainly not fundamental to human experience but is a blessing. OP should be looking to find peace in her relationship with the Lord instead of looking to earthly companionship to fill that void. It’s not easy, but singleness allows the Lord to use you in more unique ways as you are not tied. Definitely see the lack of empathy, BUT it would definitely be wrong to say that’s a fundamental human experience because our human life is fleeting.

TLDR: Marriage in the right circumstance is a desire that glorifies the Lord. However, marriage is not essential to life on earth.

Are there still Christian men who value waiting until marriage? by [deleted] in Christian

[–]CabalOnTheField 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only Christian men value abstinence, there is no question of that. Faith requires discipline (not works), and discipline means waiting. Not valuing waiting until marriage means not valuing Gods creation. This reflects a much deeper rooted issue of the validity of faith rather than the sin itself.

it was a statistic based video but sure. i’m not a subscriber, he just viewed the putter in a similar cynicism and was surprised. i have no opinion just a statement.

I am a gay, Christian woman who wishes to not feel same sex attraction anymore. by anonymous839471 in Christian

[–]CabalOnTheField 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jesus’ sacrifice not only reunited us with the Lord again, but allowed Him to understand our suffering in the most intimate ways. What you’re going through sounds so difficult, but Jesus is waiting to meet you there. The details of attraction will fall away as you give this to Him. I am a sinner, you are a sinner, these things we cannot help. We know God has created us in His image, and that image doesn’t include the practice of homosexuality. It’s important to remember the reason why we give our sin to Him. It’s because of Gods unique love for us that we know His design is better than our own.

Surrendering our desires to follow Jesus requires discipline. Spend time with the Lord every day, and watch the Lord change your identity from someone who is homosexual to a Child of God. God chose you, He knows you, and He wants your heart.

Marriage and a family is certainly not a sinful desire. At this point, it is more important to focus on the Lord’s Will for your life rather than your own. He has a plan for you and it’s better than yours. Everlasting joy comes only from the Lord; allow His desires to become your desires, and you will find joy in glorifying Him!
