Young woman:

If he really loved you, he would respect your wishes. And your wish is to honor God with your body through purity.

Love is not selfish. The man who lives in slavery to his lusts is not living in slavery to righteousness, and is not an inheritor of the kingdom of God!

Be careful. Be patient. And allow for brothers in the church to help that man. “But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted.”

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6:1‬ b ‭NIV‬‬

Known by Fruit

Being a Christian is not a hidden feature of the heart. It is not a preference such as one’s favorite football team. It is a way of life defined by Christ. One cannot be a Christian while openly embracing sin or claiming to be without sin. Source: the Bible.

James 4:8 (NASB) Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

So how are we going to raise our children and train them so that they will feel the exceeding sinfulness of sin and be willing to take stands that are extremely unpopular, maybe even costly or dangerous?

Helping others is a great self-help!

Today I felt like a broken machine, lying helpless with scattered pieces. I needed someone to put the pieces back together again. But I was all alone. God seemed so distant to me, but I tried reaching out to him anyway. God please, I pray, help me resist temptation, put me back together, and take away this crippling depression. Right now I feel like a failure. I feel like there is nothing I can do to get rid of this hopelessness. I feel like I am the one who is sick and needs help, but right now, instead, I will focus my mind on how to encourage others. I will delight myself in helping others. Then somehow you will shine a light of joy into my darkness. Because I am fulfilling my purpose which you have given me. Please shine a light into my darkness and let me become a light. Amen.

Psalm 32 and porn

I was just reading Psalm 32 and it really struck me as a great message about the effects of secret sin-- such as hidden porn addictions-- contrasted with the blessedness of open confession and repentance. “When I kept silent about my sin... my vitality was drained away.” Yes, I can honestly relate to that.

But it’s a psalm of hope, not a psalm of hopelessness.

Don’t be like a stubborn animal that has to be controlled with a “bit and bridle” before he comes near to the Lord. Repent now and willingly confess your sins, seek knowledge, seek a deeper relationship with God. Take heed of the Lord’s rebuke before your sufferings are magnified. And then be amazed at the blessings he has kept in store for you.
