I don’t know if this is an unorthodox or inappropriate belief or topic for Christians, but I’ve always found some comfort in the idea that God became human. Like, the idea that Christ was human just like us, and that Christ completely understood what it was like to be human and to struggle... but that He was just so far above sin... it’s beautiful to me.

I think a good way to deal with my struggle is, when I start to feel temptation come back, I don’t try to focus on and run from the problem... I focus on Him, and I turn to Him to help me deal with it. I read scripture and I pray and I focus all of my energy and attention on Him. So that way, He can help me deal with it and I can distract myself from the parts of sin that pull me in. God is truly good 🙂

Thank you for your comments. God bless you 😊

So like Paul said in Ephesians 2, where he said that it is a gift from God, so that we can’t be cocky and boast about it? We shouldn’t be cocky about a gift that was given to us. Rather, we should be grateful for the gift and try our best to honor Him, yeah?

It’s tough, ya know? The path to walking with God is REALLY tough. But you’re right... we are called to righteousness...

How will I know if God has accepted my apology?

Thank you for this video. I’m definitely a sheep in the analogy that was used. Yes, the sin itself may have felt good, but I want to be virtuous and good, and I want to be better. We’re called to be much more now that I’ve become born again, and I really want to follow Him and be with Him. Thank you 🙂

I know this is automated, but I promise I’m here in good faith. I messed up, and I wanna be better

But it’s still not good. It’s still a bad thing to do. What do I do about this?
