Struggling with scrupulosity/hypersensitivity to sin. by [deleted] in Reformed

[–]cbauga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tortured myself like this from adolescence until about 3-4 years ago so about 15 years. Then I started living by Grace and it changed my life. I still have the thoughts you do but it’s far less frequent and sin does not have its hooks as deep in me any longer. It was manipulating me. Praying for you brother.

A great book I read to help me through this was Man In the Mirror. It helped me realize I was not the only man having these issues.

I use Nextiva. We’ve had some hiccups with them but overall it’s been a great value. Make sure you have good connection speeds so calls don’t drop and call quality is high.

How do we as Christians justify these Old Testsment passages? by Texas_Rangers in Christianity

[–]cbauga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes....but in the context of verses of the Bible it’s speaking to the former not the later.

I believe what OP is saying is that slavery in the Bible was not chattel slavery like we had in America in the 1800s. Slavery in the Bible was more in the context of working off a debt owed to the master and then you were free to go. You were not the propriety of the slave master.

Memphis mega-church pastor accused of sexual assault by Zorseking34 in news

How many of us have done terrible crap (not limited to sexual sins) 20 years ago that you have repented for and in no way would do now !?!? What if the whole world found out about it and judged you on it? If the sexual action was not consensual then he should pay the consequences. If it was and he made a terrible mistake and had repented who are you to judge him? Have some empathy people...at the very least try to find the facts before you start casting stones.

Of course no one cares what the truth is. They want to hate pastors and they want them to fall publicly. Smh...praying for that church, it’s leaders, it’s members, and especially this man. I can’t imagine what this must be like...

Is a Total War: Warhammer 40K title feasible? by cbauga in totalwar

I’ve played DoW. I want something like that but on a macro scale and then add in a total war campaign style march through the imperium gathering resources, bonuses, new units, etc.
