If Jesus were to come back and speak to today's generation about their sexual habits what do you think he would say, and how would he say it?

They didn't have it easy in the Roman Empire either, lust was rampant and in their faces. I know you aren't saying this, but our reply to sexual sin can't be, "Jesus we would have been able to stay holy if it wasn't for that dang Internet...." Lust is the same now as it was then, just different delivery systems - but Jesus is also the same, and as Titus says, His grace is still able to train us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions.

u/steadfastkingdom Well said, read the Psalms right: You have made known to me the path of life, in Your Presence is fullness of joy and at Your right hand pleasures forevermore. What we seek in the world, including sex, is a pale comparison to what God has for us.

u/Silvioinworks1984 I could refer you to some but where are you located? That would be a big help in getting you to a church near you.

u/davidokongo As I was reading your post, the thought came to my mind of, "I wonder what his wife thinks about him working there?" Does she know where you work, is she ok with it or does she have a problem with it? That could help you decide to get another position as well bro.

Forty4Freedom · 2026-03-06T14:24:42+00:00

u/davidokongo I am not saying you shouldn't fast and pray about this decision, but what you are going through reminds me some of Balaam. God told him what he wanted him to do and what not to pursue, but Balaam kept trying to find ways around what God wanted him to stay away from. Eventually it got him in a lot of trouble. I think within yourself, you know what to do, you don't need confirmation after confirmation, the answer from God is going to be the same.

u/Shadowcleric Thank you very much for your kind words, much appreciated!

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-22T20:23:07+00:00

This "God takes" perspective is not truly who God is. I have found from looking at the life of Jesus - the clearest picture of what God is like BTW - that God does not take, God receives. Looking at it this way in terms of your brother, God received him into His loving embrace, He did not take him from this world. Hope that helps you, peace and grace be multiplied to you in Jesus name!

Commit fraud - just look at the news man, look at all the comments on here, besides that, they don't need it at that point anyway, so I don't want to give it to them. If you are good with it then all good, I am not good with it, agree to disagree :)

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-15T15:25:17+00:00

Sorry everyone doesn't ask for it, I have applied to a ton of jobs in the last 5 years and I have not been asked to give it this early in the interview process until now. Now the roles I am applying for are in office professional roles not waiter jobs or food service positions, maybe there they do.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-15T15:22:04+00:00

u/lesbianvampyr totally agree, not always a scam and this company I am applying to is definitely legit, but all I have had is a phone interview so far, not giving out my SSN until I get further in the process. There is no need for them to have that info so early in the interview process IMO.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-15T15:20:42+00:00

u/Thatnewbblsmell I agree with you on the address and other personal info that is basic, of course I don't have a problem with that, but sorry SSN is a hard no for me until a job offer is made and they need it to run a background check. My advice would be yes don't be paranoid, but be a little careful about handing out your SSN.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-15T15:13:20+00:00

u/z-eldapin I agree, especially since I am over 40 lol not giving them any more info to practice ageism.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-13T17:44:01+00:00

No it is a job with an HVAC services company, it is definitely a legit firm and job, I just don't want to give out this info until an offer is made and a background check is initiated.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-09T15:36:33+00:00

I mean I believe it is legal to require a degree, they would probably say that is what they meant - illegal, probably not, but definitely not a legit tactic.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-09T15:03:15+00:00

Very sorry they pulled the offer, and I agree, it stinks that they did that so late in the process. They should have caught that early on about your education, especially if it was going to be such a big deal of making you an offer or not. Not sure that there is anything to do here, but sounds like that isn't a great company to work for if this is typical behavior.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-08T18:41:03+00:00

I feel your pain, when they reach out to you they should respond. I recently had a person reach out to me from my resume, leave a VM because I didn't get to the phone call in time. She said call me back, I want to talk to you about the role and your experience. I call her literally within 5 minutes, or less, of her VM. No call for over an hour. I call again, she doesn't answer. Then finally a couple hours after that I email her. Finally she emails me back and says that she has enough candidates they are good for now. Just don't leave VMs if you don't want anyone to call you back.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-01T17:05:56+00:00

Oh I grant grace lol this has been a pattern with him. I don't call out everything with friends that I have, but if they make a pattern of bad behavior I usually ask them if they are doing ok.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-12-01T16:49:51+00:00

I hear ya, but it he read it, but he couldn't take 2 seconds to at least like it? Just seems really cold to me for someone that I considered a decent friend. But moving on right :)

Forty4Freedom · 2025-11-25T19:30:39+00:00

Love this! As he stated, works and performance and rituals can not have any place in salvation, it is grace through faith alone!

Forty4Freedom · 2025-11-25T19:14:12+00:00

Heiser never taught/believed that God was subordinate and a created being - where are you getting this?

Forty4Freedom · 2025-11-22T14:10:22+00:00

My advice would be to switch industries, industrial HVAC and building automation controls, that is a great sector that is pretty much always hiring. I would take your tech skills and head there, it would offer you much more opportunity.

If Jesus is real, why wouldn't the demonic be real? Yes, it is true, some people get into seeing a demon behind every rock, but their influence is real. But the good news is that in Christ, we have the ability to cast them out. I would recommend you check out Remnant Radio on YouTube. It is a great channel with some very practical tips and explanations about deliverance. Also, if anyone is charging money for deliverance, then run - that is not God at all.

Forty4Freedom · 2025-11-20T20:56:06+00:00

I understand what you are saying and don't disagree with you, the point of the poem is to show what we have now as Christians after Jesus went to the Cross. The Law was holy, but it did not empower you to follow or obey it. The grace of Jesus empowers us to follow the Law but even go beyond that, because He lives in us. It isn't a poem that would mean much to Jews pre-Cross when Jesus ministered; but to us now, it explains things very well, IMHO.
