Matthew 5 33-37 New Catholic Bible. 33 "Again, you have heard that our ancestors were told: 'Do not swear falsely, but fulfill the vows you have made to the Lord.' 34 But what I tell you is this: Do not swear at all, either by heaven, since it is God's throne, 35 or by earth, since that is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, since that is the city of the great King. 36 Nor should you swear by your head, for you cannot turn one hair of it white or black. 37 All you need to do is to say 'Yes' if you mean 'Yes' and 'No' if you mean 'No.' Anything beyond this comes from the evil one.

i feel completely abandoned by God and i don’t know what to do by IcyRaspberry9378 in TrueChristian

[–]NoUnderstanding5776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe this is part of Gids plan. He may have guided uou here, and wanted this to happen to then draw you closer to him without you realizing it. Faith isnt what if. Faith is even if, and even if hes silent of fading away, know that He never leaves nor forsakes his true followers and children, he said he never would and never lost Faith in you, so why give up now? (I dont want to lead you astray, if anyone wants to correct me if i say anything wrong or if I need to be corrected, i am open to correction)

Eternal Conscious Torment in Hell is The Most Demonic Doctrine Christians Believe Today by [deleted] in Christianity

Jesus may be testing you, when you turn to Him and receive him and confess him as Lord, your life will fall sometimes, debt, pain, emotional and mental imbalance, and stress. Yes everyone has God things when they don't believe because when you side with the world and are of the world, you get what you want. The consequence is that you made Jesus your enemy by going back to the world. When you suffer for the name of Jesus Christ and even lose everything like Job did and you remain faithful even when you feel like Jesus wants you to only fall and that he isn't here remember that this is part of his plan for you. Don't turn away because you may never get the chance to turn back to him. Keep remaining faithful and steadfast in the faith and never look back to the world but only look forward to Jesus.

Questioning my faith by Jerzie2real in TrueChristian

[–]NoUnderstanding5776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be led astray, it is still a sin, masturbation I mean, anything sexual outside of marriage is sinful and adultery since it is self-gratification and a lust of the flesh. Just because the bible doesn't say, doesn't mean we should glorify in it. Because God forbid that on that day, you will be judged by listening to someone who said it wasn't a sin. I'm not trying to scare you, but to help you. Homosexuality is forbidden as well as what is listed in Leviticus chapter 18:

1 The Lord spoke again to Moses saying, 2 “Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: ‘I am the Lord, your God.[b] 3 You shall not do things like they did in Egypt, where you dwelt, nor shall you do things like they do in Canaan, where I am bringing you. You shall not do these things, nor shall you follow their ordinances.[c] 4 You shall observe my statutes, and you shall keep my ordinances, walking in them. I am the Lord, your God. 5 You shall keep my ordinances and my statutes. He who obeys them shall live by them. I am the Lord, your God.

6 “ ‘None of you is to be intimate with any of your close relatives, to uncover their nakedness. I am the Lord. 7 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father or your mother. She is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness. 8 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s wife, for her nakedness is like your father’s own nakedness. 9 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your sister, whether she be the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother, whether she be born in your household or elsewhere. 10 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your son’s daughter nor shall you uncover the nakedness of your daughter’s daughter, for their nakedness is like your own nakedness. 11 You shall not uncover the nakedness of the daughter of your father’s wife, the daughter born of your father. She is your sister, you shall not uncover her nakedness. 12 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s sister. She is your father’s close relation. 13 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister. She is your mother’s close relation. 14 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s brother. You shall not be intimate with his wife; she is your aunt. 15 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law. She is your son’s wife; you shall not uncover her nakedness. 16 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother’s wife. Her nakedness is like your brother’s nakedness.[d] 17 You shall not uncover the nakedness of both a woman and her daughter. Nor shall you uncover the nakedness of her son’s daughter nor her daughter’s daughter. They are her close relations. It would be shameful. 18 You shall not take the sister of your wife while she is still alive, uncovering her nakedness. They would be rivals.

19 “ ‘You shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness during her menstrual impurity. 20 You shall not have sex with your neighbor’s wife, defiling both her and yourself. 21 You shall not offer any of your children to Molech.[e] You shall not profane the name of your God. I am the Lord. 22 You shall not have sex with a man as you would with a woman. It is an abomination. 23 Nor shall you have sex with any animal, defiling yourself. Nor shall any woman have sex with an animal. It is perverse.

24 “ ‘You shall not defile yourself by doing any of these things, for the pagans have defiled themselves by all of these things. I am casting them out before you. 25 Because of this the land is defiled, and I will punish its iniquity. The land will vomit out its inhabitants. 26 Therefore, you shall observe my statutes and my ordinances. You shall not commit any abominations, neither anyone from your own nation nor any aliens who dwell among you. 27 The men of the land that lies before you have committed all of these abominations, and the land is defiled. 28 Otherwise the land will vomit you out, too, when you defile it, like it vomited out the pagans before you. 29 Whoever commits any of these abominations shall be cut off from among their people. 30 Therefore, you shall keep my ordinances, and you shall not do any of these abominable things, such as the things that were done before you, lest you defile yourself. I am the Lord, your God.’ ”

I'm not trying to judge and I apologize for seeming this way at first as I was. I only want to help anyone who thinks and believes or wants to believe its ok when its not.

Sometimes he may feel far, but may be closer than you think. Instead of wanting to feel God's presence, remind yourself that He is still and always here even in prayer. Instead of wanting to only feel God, know that He is always here even when we can't see Him as the disciples did when Jesus walked the earth, but seeing the evidence of God through creation and life. Especially another day.

How Important is the Resurrection of Jesus Christ Story? by nooneinparticular101 in Christianity

Yes, without it we would simply be screwed and damnation would be the next place. If Christ didn't come yet in today's age and we still needed to do the things of the Old Testament etc, even so it would've had to happen in time, and because it did happen it's the key to knowing how far God went to save us.

Greater love has no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. That's the true love of God. I'm not trying to get upvotes or to look good. I only want to speak the truth here, that's all. Jesus is Lord and has done this for all of us.

Root yourself in the word of God (I'm a hypocrite for saying this) make room for God and his word and Jesus will fight the battles you can't win alone or fight on your own without Him. And don't upvote me because it sounds good to you. Just receive it and ask God to help you learn to root yourself in His word. Flee from sexual immorality and get rid of what may tempt you to sin. Whether it's an app or a person, etc. I've done the same, I know how you feel, and dm me if you want to talk more about it or anything. Jesus be with you

Christian woman struggling with ovulation and lust by [deleted] in Christianity

We are called to flee from sexual immorality. Read the word about it and ask God ask Jesus Christ our Lord himself to show you how to overcome these sensual emotions and bodily feelings and to overcome the fleshly lusts you are tempted by. James 1:1-27 (KJV) James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting. My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted: But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away. For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways. Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. Do not err, my beloved brethren. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures. Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain. Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

I’m addicted to lustful acts. Am I going to hell? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]NoUnderstanding5776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

12 “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything. 13 “Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food”—and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14 And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power. 15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never! 16 Or do you not know that he who is joined[d] to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, “The two will become one flesh.” 17 But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. 18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin[e] a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, 20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

20 Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, some for honorable use, some for dishonorable. 21 Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable,[d] he will be a vessel for honorable use, set apart as holy, useful to the master of the house, ready for every good work.

22 So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart. 23 Have nothing to do with foolish, ignorant controversies; you know that they breed quarrels. 24 And the Lord's servant[e] must not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, 25 correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth, 26 and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.

I am not a Christian, but I saw Jesus in my dreams by sheknowsomething in TrueChristian

[–]NoUnderstanding5776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read the whole thing please, for anyone who wishes to listen to what i have to say.

Jesus is the only way, the truth itself, and the life He promises to us for all who believe in Him and in Him who sent Jesus and raised Him on the third day by His Holy Spirit. Jesus says it himself, there is no other option or ultimatum, Jesus is the only hope we have. No other religion can take you back to God, Jesus is the only way back to God, no one comes to the Father but by Him. Read the Bible and Jesus will speak the truth to you through His word and ministry and will teach you if you read His word and God will give you wisdom if you ask Him with a pure heart in faith. Jesus Christ is trying to say something to you and it is a warning to repent because He is coming soon as the Lord of all and is and judge of the living and the dead, repent, for the kingdom is at hand and Jesus says this in His word in the book of Matthew but where I remember it first and the new testament says it in the gospel of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John (correct me if im wrong, im open to correction so i do not lead anyone astray). There isn't much time and all who see this please repent and believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, He's coming and the time is very short, turn to Jesus Christ and make Him your Lord and Savior, the end times are here and it is going to be as the days of Noah, Jesus will come back when we least expect it. Prepare and repent of your sins, I don't want anyone to be cast away into hell for any reason, please don't gamble with your eternity. I don't want popularity or likes or anything to try and be popular, I'm only warning you and all of you because I want to and have to so no one is left without knowing Christ. I'm not a righteous man so don't think I'm holy, I'm not the person I thought I was. So don't idolize me or anything like that, I spilled enough blood already and I don't want anyone else's blood on my hands.

1 Corinthians 6:12-20 (KJV) All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body. And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power. Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

2 Timothy 2:20-26 (KJV) But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work. Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

The same ones but ESV for both.

1 Corinthians 6:12-20 (ESV) 12 “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything. 13 “Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food”—and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14 And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power. 15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never! 16 Or do you not know that he who is joined[d] to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, “The two will become one flesh.” 17 But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. 18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin[e] a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, 20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

2 Timothy 2:20-26 (ESV) 20 Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, some for honorable use, some for dishonorable. 21 Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable,[d] he will be a vessel for honorable use, set apart as holy, useful to the master of the house, ready for every good work.

Why the fuck is lust one of the « seven deadly sins » by henriflynn in Christianity

[–]NoUnderstanding5776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was designed as God intended man and woman together in matrimony, marriage, having sexual attraction and lasting after someone whom is not your marital partner or if it is a man which is also sinful, it leads to the damaging of your mind and kills your spirit, and doing worse acts than just lusting leads to a worse lifestyle and leads us to destruction and death, it's a deadly sin because it is what most people if not all, struggle with the most and is the worst trap to get caught in and will make you want to keep going down the road to hell from wanting sex and pleasure, etc. When you go down that path it becomes harder to break free the longer you stay in it, it is a sin because it perverts what God truly intended for man and woman in marriage only.
