    Many people take the view that "I'm not a bad person, so I won't go to hell". But when we realize how much we miss the mark simply by OMISSION we realize we too stand condemned. 😳 Praise God for the mercy and grace of Jesus Christ!! There is nothing like it!!! 😭

      @@tobyfredson5668 I feel a huge part of it is learning why we shouldn't judge each other for the sins and transgressions we make. I don't know everything or have all the answers but I know god is real and loving and merciful. I've lived a pretty bad life alot of times knowing I was wrong and god has still saved me countless times when he easily could have just let go. He is the greatest god we ever could have had or asked for. I feel terrible that I'm not more the way I should b.e

      Another thing you can not deny is that nothing good is truly good nothing evil is truly evil. For every act of love they are a act of hate and vise versa everything is neutral. Good and Evil are abstract ideas. No such thing as right or wrong everything comes from a point of view from their preceptive not reality.

      Austin my name is Gabe and the battle for our mind (especially lustful thoughts) is a struggle many men battle. It sounds like you are not in agreement with this (which is essential for victory) and that is good. There are 2 sources of these kind of things: the flesh and evil spirits. The flesh you can crucify but with the spirits you can bind them in Jesus' name (Matthew 16:19) and loose power, love, peace of God etc. These spirits will be persistent but through binding and loosing and taking captive your thoughts and bringing them into obedience unto Christ you will win! Remember 1 john 1:9 which states confess your sin to Him and He will be faithful and just to forgive AND cleanse you from all unrighteousness. Don't fall into condemnation give it to Jesus and focus on Him.. He is for you! Peace and blessings to you!

      Those in Christ filled with the Holy Spirit will be guided and convicted by him regarding these. Then 1 John 19 goes into effect ASAP. This is followed by repentance to purpose not to repeat willfully these things. Does there go us in Christ by the grace of God.

      THIS IS THE GOOD NEWS🎁
      WE MUST REPENT OF OUR SELF- RIGHTEOUSNESS AND ASK CHRIST TO FILL US WITH HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH RESULTS IN SALVATION which means DELIVERANCE. WE CANNOT DELIVER OURSELVES FROM SIN. THE GIFT OF GOD IS HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS BY FAITH. DAILY ASK CHRIST FOR HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND YOU WILL BE DELIVERED FROM SIN.
      Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
      2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
      3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
      4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
      5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
      6 But the RIGHTEOUSNESS which is of FAITH (the spirit) speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
      7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
      8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the WORD OF FAITH, which we preach;
      9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
      10 For with the heart man BELIEVETH unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the mouth CONFESSION is made unto salvation.
      11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
      12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
      13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
      Ephsians2:8 For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through FAITH. And this [salvation] (deliverance) is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God;
      SARA: Girl I have been struggling with sexual sin and I've been trying to stay away from it but I still have this over bearing desire which cause me to stumble.
      TINA: Sara the good news is that once christ died at the cross and defeated the devil we are now free to serve Christ when we are born again. Christ destroyed the curse on our soul (will, mind, emotions...desires), Christ has given us His RIGHTEOUSNESS through the power of the Holy spirit which we receive by FAITH (which is your spiritual currency) through the word of God. So daily ASK to be FILLED with the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ because matthew 5:6 says BLESSED are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness for they shall be FILLED.” our works are in the spirit FIRST which is the WORKS of FAITH (spiritual CURRENCY)and BELIEF IN THE WORD OF GOD. The word of God says seek FIRST the kingdom of God and His RIGHTEOUSNESS (spiritual)and all these THINGS( natural) will be added. Our BLESSINGS come through the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ by Holy spirit THROUGH FAITH AND BELIEF IN WHAT THE WORD OF GOD HAS SPOKEN.
      SARA; wow! I've been focusing on my works hoping I'll get better instead of asking to be filled DAILY with the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST through the works of my FAITH in Him and BELIEF in the word of God and what He has spoken. So you say FAITH is my CURRENCY and I should use it no matter how my situation looks in the natural realm. Hebrews 11:6 says: And without FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God, because anyone who comes to him must BELIEVE that he is, and that he REWARDS those who DILIGENTLY seek him. I must patiently wait for my reward of having FAITH AND BELIEF. Lord fill me with your RIGHTEOUSNESS through the power of the Holy spirit so I will have the DESIRE to walk sexually pure before you. Lord thank you for your mercy amen.
      Ephesian 2:9 not as a result of [your] works [nor your attempts to keep the Law], so that no one will [be able to] BOAST or TAKE CREDIT in any way [for his salvation].
      Jesus said he will FILL us with his RIGHTEOUSNESS by FAITH.MATTHEW 5:6 Our HEART and DESIRE being FILLED with the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ starts the WORKS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS then its expressed in our behavior which is HOLINESS. Our DESIRE is changed from a DESIRE TO SIN to a DESIRE TO LIVE HOLY. HOLINESS IS THE PRODUCT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. THIS INNER WORK of the HOLY SPIRIT PRODUCE THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS which is SALVATION and HOLINESS so ask DAILY for CHRIST to FILL YOU with His RIGHTEOUSNESS and the HOLY SPIRIT will destroy your DISIRE to COMMIT THE SIN YOU STRUGGLE WITH DAILY. That's why at the end of the day we GLORY IN CHRIST and not OURSELVES because CHRIST does the WORK through the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Our RITUALS DON'T DELIVER us from HABITUAL SIN ONLY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST through the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT which DESTROYS the DESIRE TO SIN to a DESIRE LIVE HOLY which is the FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
      Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you REST. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find REST FOR YOUR SOULS. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
      Christ said we must be BORN AGAIN of the SPIRIT. FAITH is our SPIRITUAL CURRENCY. BELIEF IN CHRIST AND THE WORD OF GOD = FAITH. We must use God's SPIRITUAL CURRENCY in this NATURAL WORLD. By FAITH so we can get PHYSICAL/SPIRITUAL THINGS from God = SPIRITUAL TRANSACTIOI.
      You Must Be Born Again
      John 3:1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 2 This man came to Jesus[a] by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him.” 3 Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again[b] he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 4 Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?”5 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.[c] 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You[d]must be born again.’ 8 The wind[e] blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
      9 Nicodemus said to him, “How can these things be?” 10 Jesus answered him, “Are you the teacher of Israel and yet you do not understand these things?11 Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen, but you[f] do not receive our testimony. 12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things?13 No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.

      Yes. I deal with others who constantly do sins of omission to me and it's beyond frustrating. I have a very high calling and am seeking to find a faithful few maturing believers to start a ministry and tight knit community to raise godly children with godly families and it never happens. I tried it in Ohio where I'm from at various churches and no one was receptive nor had the same passion and desires to follow and obey Acts 2-4 where we are clearly told to meet daily or even weekly to study scripture together (Apostles doctrine), have fellowship (getting together, worship with music, sharing money and all resources and our time to edify and supply each other's needs), break bread (have meals and remember the Messiah's death in our place by him fulfilling the 4 spring holidays of Passover, Unleavened bread, Day of First fruits and Weeks aka pentacost) and prayer (all types of prayers including tongues fro those who have made it further in their walk to be fire baptized and each have their own individual heavenly language tongue to pray in the spirit). I couldn't bear good fruit in Ohio and find others who would make time for these 4 directives and was Apostolically sent out to Tucson Arizona and have been here for 4 years amd still haven't found these things either?! So I can't help but testify of the omissions of my spiritual brothers and sisters around me who neglect me and my son every day and week amd month and year. Time is very short without much of it left and we are told in scripture to not forsake the assembling together of ourselves as is the habbit of many, but exort one another even more so as we see the (final) day approaching (Hebrews 10:25) which I believe will only be 9 more years left this September. And it's so frustrating bc people can hide more easily from being accountable with sins of omission bc it's not common practice for people to receive any correction or punishment by the good that they are not doing continually. Everyone is punished or corrected by their sins of commission by the law enforcement or congregation leaders. It usually only parents and most businesses that penalize or correct people for neglect. God's immature people keep getting away with it while we are still on earth and not at our bema seat rewards tribunal judgment.
      ** update** 2020
      God’s path has lead me back to Ohio near Akron, to fight the spirits of the giants here and take it back as my family inheritance for this last season. If Anyone is in Ohio, we should build a community now while the grass still has some green left and before it’s all dried up and we are on the run and desperately looking for shelter, love, food and other provisions, like the walking dead bc times similar to that are coming and we need to unite and store up what we can now. Let’s finish strong and die worthy deaths, fighting evil and delivering as many of our brothers and sisters as we can!

If you lived near an Abortion Clinic and drove by everyday while those Babies being murdered and you did nothing....No protesting...not talking about it....not voting for Pro Life Politicians....basically ignoring what's going on....that's sin of ommission.....or ignoring someone that needs help or is hungry.....

This message has given me much to contemplate as it provides a deeper, richer understanding of WHO our Father really is. As a really mixed up person, I do hope I can come to a better relationship with HIM.

    God is good brother in Christ! Sometimes i can see that sounds simple for some to understand but reality it is that we don't really understand when we reason in our own and we keep falling into the same sin without growing ourselves. It is good when a Word is edifying and helps us understand God's will in our lives to be more like Him. We are His children and He helps us to know Him more if we listen to His voice and follow Him. Thank you for your videos that helps to edify us and look up to the Perfect One, Jesus!

      firstname lastname All of creation is proof...and more of science is beginning to agree, or at least not rule it out. The invention of the electron microscope alone blew Darwin’s theories out of the water.
      Up until 8-9yrs ago I was so completely against all religions of man, leaving me little time or interest in God, even though I wasn’t a complete dissenter as I did believe in a God.
      I decided, as a passionate student of history, to finally do a deep dive into the Bible. Once and for all...no longer relying on the opinions of others. I mean a very deep dive, word etymologies, commentaries, original languages, contemporary works, and even a few of the non canonical books.
      I can point to several specific points in my life where I felt I was being pushed or pulled into finding out more about God. But I was far too busy with life and studying just wasn’t going to happen. The amazing thing is...the deeper I dug into the Bible the more it opened up. As soon as I thought I had my mind wrapped around it the floors would fall away and I would see new depths unfolding.
      At the outset I figured I’d give it a year. I was laid up and unable to work, after a home invasion. Luckily I had the VA for my medical needs and family provided a roof while the VA was trying to repair me, but I digress. I’ve now been studying it, “religiously “..., for going on 8yrs and I’m just beginning to see I much I don’t know and have yet to learn. I only wish I hadn’t wasted 40+yrs before doing so!
      Reading the King James Version, for example, will only get one so far and most will never even read it over a lifetime.
      The real insight is when you begin to mine passage or verses in the original languages. All the proof one could ever need of God creating everything can literally be found within the Bible and it’s roots.
      My injuries, or more specifically, my pain prevented me from getting to sleep so I even started searching UA-cam videos for Bible readings and Commentaries. Finding gems out there became easier with time and knowledge but it’s fraught with false teachings. Some innocent but most deliberately designed to lead one astray.
      Anyway, this ran long...it’s late and I’m tired. But it’s never to late to point out that the Bible is true.
      It’s 66 books by 40 authors, written in 3 different languages, on 3 different continents over a 2000yr time span and yet it’s a completely integrated message system. The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed and the NT is the OT revealed.
      It’s the Holy Spirit inspired writings sent to us by God standing outside of our realm of time, which he created, and viewing everything at once from beginning to end. That’s my story and I’m sticking with it...
      God Bless

    • @TomLongusa
      @TomLongusa 5 років тому +1

      Oh, everyone is given the same choice to except Gods unmerited Grace, by Faith that Jesus did indeed die for our sins and his blood paid the blood sacrifice needed to absolve us of sin. Jesus is the only way to God.
      We all have a choice, until we draw our last breath...our in these late days it may only be until the Tribulation begins. Once it begins I believe the Faith offer is removed as the evidence is plain to see. Some will be saved during the tribulation but I pray that no one puts it of until then, as it will not be easy at all.
      Choose well!

    @teresahunt7241 2 роки тому +1

    I've watched a few videos posted by "sinless" Christians. If those people really and truly understood the entire scope of what sin is, they wouldn't think so highly of themselves. Personally, I find most of them very prideful (which is in and of itself a sin). I once went to church with a nurse who seemed perfect on the outside, but she secretly confessed to me that she had very judgemental THOUGHTS about others. What they wore, how they looked, their status in society....she felt just as guilty as I felt for smoking and drinking and being divorced and a multitude of other sins. If you're guilty of one, you're guilty of all. I'm not perfect and won't be on this side of heaven....but thank God I'm not who I used to be. The Holy Spirit smacks me when I'm wandering off and brings me back. In the past two years, God has allowed me to be unemployed for 10 months and also taken a man out of my life who wasn't God's best for me. He lost his job as well and went back home to a city 3 hours away to live with his WIFE. (Loneliness makes us do foolish things.) I loved him dearly but it was not God's plan. I was only getting crumbs. Never underestimate God's power to make a way of escape. It's been painful but very necessary. I start a new job on 3/28/22. I'm not sure what to do with all of the unpaid bills but I've started contacting the companies I owe and making payment plans. I'm 56 and single and may have to find a job for Saturdays. If that's God's will, he will provide. The job I'm starting on 3/28 literally fell in my lap. It comes with a pay raise and a sign-on bonus. It's in a city about 25 minutes away, but the medical providers at the facility have already offered rides if I ever need one, and an old weight-lifting partner who I bumped into at Walmart just after my interview has offered me rides inside the city and a place to stay overnight if I ever get stranded there. God is working it all out....but I have to admit that my faith is weak at times. Pray for me please.

      WE MUST REPENT OF OUR SELF- RIGHTEOUSNESS AND ASK CHRIST TO FILL US WITH HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH RESULTS IN SALVATION which means DELIVERANCE. WE CANNOT DELIVER OURSELVES FROM SIN. THE GIFT OF GOD IS HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS BY FAITH. DAILY ASK CHRIST FOR HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND YOU WILL BE DELIVERED FROM SIN.
      Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
      2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
      3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
      4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
      5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
      6 But the RIGHTEOUSNESS which is of FAITH (the spirit) speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
      7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
      8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the WORD OF FAITH, which we preach;
      9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
      10 For with the heart man BELIEVETH unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the mouth CONFESSION is made unto salvation.
      11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
      12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
      13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
      Ephsians2:8 For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through FAITH. And this [salvation] (deliverance) is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God;
      SARA: Girl I have been struggling with sexual sin and I've been trying to stay away from it but I still have this over bearing desire which cause me to stumble.
      TINA: Sara the good news is that once Christ died at the cross and defeated the devil we are now free to serve Christ when we are born again. Christ destroyed the curse on our soul (will, mind, emotions...desires), Christ has given us His RIGHTEOUSNESS through the power of the Holy spirit which we receive by FAITH (which is your spiritual currency) through the word of God. So daily ASK to be FILLED with the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ because matthew 5:6 says BLESSED are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness for they shall be FILLED.” our works are in the spirit FIRST which is the WORKS of FAITH (spiritual CURRENCY)and BELIEF IN THE WORD OF GOD. The word of God says seek FIRST the kingdom of God and His RIGHTEOUSNESS (spiritual)and all these THINGS( natural) will be added. Our BLESSINGS come through the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ by Holy spirit THROUGH FAITH AND BELIEF IN WHAT THE WORD OF GOD HAS SPOKEN.
      SARA; wow! I've been focusing on my works hoping I'll get better instead of asking to be filled DAILY with the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST through the works of my FAITH in Him and BELIEF in the word of God and what He has spoken. So you say FAITH is my CURRENCY and I should use it no matter how my situation looks in the natural realm. Hebrews 11:6 says: And without FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God, because anyone who comes to him must BELIEVE that he is, and that he REWARDS those who DILIGENTLY seek him. I must patiently wait for my reward of having FAITH AND BELIEF. Lord fill me with your RIGHTEOUSNESS through the power of the Holy spirit so I will have the DESIRE to walk sexually pure before you. Lord thank you for your mercy amen.
      Ephesian 2:9 not as a result of [your] works [nor your attempts to keep the Law], so that no one will [be able to] BOAST or TAKE CREDIT in any way [for his salvation].
      Jesus said he will FILL us with his RIGHTEOUSNESS by FAITH.MATTHEW 5:6 Our HEART and DESIRE being FILLED with the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ starts the WORKS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS then its expressed in our behavior which is HOLINESS. Our DESIRE is changed from a DESIRE TO SIN to a DESIRE TO LIVE HOLY. HOLINESS IS THE PRODUCT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. THIS INNER WORK of the HOLY SPIRIT PRODUCE THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS which is SALVATION and HOLINESS so ask DAILY for CHRIST to FILL YOU with His RIGHTEOUSNESS and the HOLY SPIRIT will destroy your DISIRE to COMMIT THE SIN YOU STRUGGLE WITH DAILY. That's why at the end of the day we GLORY IN CHRIST and not OURSELVES because CHRIST does the WORK through the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Our RITUALS DON'T DELIVER us from HABITUAL SIN ONLY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST through the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT which DESTROYS the DESIRE TO SIN to a DESIRE LIVE HOLY which is the FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
      Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you REST. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find REST FOR YOUR SOULS. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
      Christ said we must be BORN AGAIN of the SPIRIT. FAITH is our SPIRITUAL CURRENCY. BELIEF IN CHRIST AND THE WORD OF GOD = FAITH. We must use God's SPIRITUAL CURRENCY in this NATURAL WORLD. By FAITH so we can get PHYSICAL/SPIRITUAL THINGS from God = SPIRITUAL TRANSACTIOI.
      You Must Be Born Again
      John 3:1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 2 This man came to Jesus[a] by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him.” 3 Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again[b] he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 4 Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?”5 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.[c] 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You[d]must be born again.’ 8 The wind[e] blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
      9 Nicodemus said to him, “How can these things be?” 10 Jesus answered him, “Are you the teacher of Israel and yet you do not understand these things?11 Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen, but you[f] do not receive our testimony. 12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things?13 No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.🛡🗡❤🙏🔥🤗

I've been focusing on my works hoping I'll get better instead of asking to be filled DAILY with the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST through the works of my FAITH in Him and BELIEF in the word of God and what He has spoken. So you say FAITH is my CURRENCY and I should use it no matter how my situation looks in the natural realm. Hebrews 11:6 says: And without FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God, because anyone who comes to him must BELIEVE that he is, and that he REWARDS those who DILIGENTLY seek him. I must patiently wait for my reward of having FAITH AND BELIEF. Lord fill me with your RIGHTEOUSNESS through the power of the Holy spirit so I will have the DESIRE to walk sexually pure before you. Lord thank you for your mercy amen.

      Jesus said he will FILL us with his RIGHTEOUSNESS by FAITH.MATTHEW 5:6 Our HEART and DESIRE being FILLED with the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ starts the WORKS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS then its expressed in our behavior which is HOLINESS. Our DESIRE is changed from a DESIRE TO SIN to a DESIRE TO LIVE HOLY. HOLINESS IS THE PRODUCT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. THIS INNER WORK of the HOLY SPIRIT PRODUCE THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS which is SALVATION and HOLINESS so ask DAILY for CHRIST to FILL YOU with His RIGHTEOUSNESS and the HOLY SPIRIT will destroy your DISIRE to COMMIT THE SIN YOU STRUGGLE WITH DAILY. That's why at the end of the day we GLORY IN CHRIST and not OURSELVES because CHRIST does the WORK through the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Our RITUALS DON'T DELIVER us from HABITUAL SIN ONLY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST through the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT which DESTROYS the DESIRE TO SIN to a DESIRE LIVE HOLY which is the FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
      Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you REST. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find REST FOR YOUR SOULS. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
      Christ said we must be BORN AGAIN of the SPIRIT. FAITH is our SPIRITUAL CURRENCY. BELIEF IN CHRIST AND THE WORD OF GOD = FAITH. We must use God's SPIRITUAL CURRENCY in this NATURAL WORLD. By FAITH so we can get PHYSICAL/SPIRITUAL THINGS from God = SPIRITUAL TRANSACTIOI.
      You Must Be Born Again
      John 3:1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 2 This man came to Jesus[a] by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him.” 3 Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again[b] he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 4 Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?”5 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.[c] 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You[d]must be born again.’ 8 The wind[e] blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
      9 Nicodemus said to him, “How can these things be?” 10 Jesus answered him, “Are you the teacher of Israel and yet you do not understand these things?11 Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen, but you[f] do not receive our testimony. 12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things?13 No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.

      @@drakeclifton5625 I am going through the same thing. About a month ago for one evening I was given a grace to clearly see that accepting my sinfulness (not the same as justifying sinning) was a gift from God because the same gift gave me the good sense to look graciously at our Savior. The grace went away, but I will not forget it. It also made me realize that no matter how hard I try, I cannot get rid of my sinfulness; God can do that anytime He wants. Faith is faith, and I guess there is no way to get around it. I just want you to know that your experience is probably not rare.

Over 70 years ago, a Swedish theologian, Anders Nygren, wrote a very small book that contains two essays. The second essay is about Atonement, and this essay is nothing short of amazing. Nygren addresses exactly what you are wrestling with. You can find a used version of, "The Essence of Christianity" on Amazon. The first essay is ok, but the second essay will address your and my issues. Nygren also wrote a phenomenal commentary on Romans but it is a heavy read.

      WE MUST REPENT OF OUR SELF- RIGHTEOUSNESS AND ASK CHRIST TO FILL US WITH HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH RESULTS IN SALVATION which means DELIVERANCE. WE CANNOT DELIVER OURSELVES FROM SIN. THE GIFT OF GOD IS HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS BY FAITH. DAILY ASK CHRIST FOR HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND YOU WILL BE DELIVERED FROM SIN.
      Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
      2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
      3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
      4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
      5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
      6 But the RIGHTEOUSNESS which is of FAITH (the spirit) speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
      7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
      8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the WORD OF FAITH, which we preach;
      9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
      10 For with the heart man BELIEVETH unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the mouth CONFESSION is made unto salvation.
      11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
      12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
      13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
      Ephsians2:8 For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through FAITH. And this [salvation] (deliverance) is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God;

Christ destroyed the curse on our soul (will, mind, emotions...desires), Christ has given us His RIGHTEOUSNESS through the power of the Holy spirit which we receive by FAITH (which is your spiritual currency) through the word of God.

    I am struggling with a particular sin in my life right now that I've been trying to be totally set free from for some time . I get to a place where I feel I am doing well and it's not even a factor, then all of a sudden, it resurfaces. Deep in my heart, I really hate that I am battling with this, and I cry out to God to please deliver me from it. My relationship with my heavenly Father means so much more than anyone or anything else. The guilt, the shame of this struggle, is practically unbearable. However, I just want to be free . I never struggled with anything as much as I am struggling with this. Please keep me lifted saints 🙏🏽❤️. I know God loves me..I just want him to see I am really trying 😢.

    so I read through some comments, and found that this info is surprising to a lot of people and that fact is sad and surprising in it's self. Please start reading a Bible, grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus. We are to keep the 10 commandments and for the babes in Christ who say "you will always sin" you are rejecting grace, fore it IS grace that enables us to obey His commandments and gain victory over sin. Rom 1:5 Paul teaches us to move on to perfection and obedience, Peter teaches us "to be holy, for God is holy", if you don't think that is possible, you have little to no faith and reject grace. 1 Jn talks all about obedience to the 10 commandments, also Rom's and Hebrews and the rest of the Bible. We honor and reflect God's character when we obey His Laws,

Moses didn't free anybody, it was God Himself that did all the work...Moses just followed instruction as should you concerning keeping the commandments. Just as our Creator told Cain, "If you do what is right, all will be well with you, if not..sin lies at the door" Our Creator is trying to develop your character so you won't go the way of Cain and you will be able to handle immortality and not abuse it. This is what we all need to work towards as being an immortal will make you one of the most powerful beings in existence., more than angels such as Lucifer.....otherwise, you will be destroyed along with Lucifer and the other fallen angels and men.

I understand how faith and obedience are one and the same worked out in the flesh....it's a test Andre...to see who is worthy of immortality and who is not. To be an immortal along with our Creator IS the gospel. You appear to put a lot of thought into your response, quote scripture and ask opposing questions, but so does Lucifer....beware. Here is a test, if you are willing : Why did Jesus / Yeshua need to die in order to redeem a fallen sinnfull creation ? and end the sin problem forever ? Think carefully before you answer.

Our RITUALS DON'T DELIVER us from HABITUAL SIN ONLY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST through the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT which DESTROYS the DESIRE TO SIN to a DESIRE LIVE HOLY which is the FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
      Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you REST. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find REST FOR YOUR SOULS. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
      Christ said we must be BORN AGAIN of the SPIRIT. FAITH is our SPIRITUAL CURRENCY. BELIEF IN CHRIST AND THE WORD OF GOD = FAITH. We must use God's SPIRITUAL CURRENCY in this NATURAL WORLD. By FAITH so we can get PHYSICAL/SPIRITUAL THINGS from God = SPIRITUAL TRANSACTIOI.
      You Must Be Born Again
      John 3:1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 2 This man came to Jesus[a] by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him.” 3 Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again[b] he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 4 Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?”5 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.[c] 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You[d]must be born again.’ 8 The wind[e] blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
      9 Nicodemus said to him, “How can these things be?” 10 Jesus answered him, “Are you the teacher of Israel and yet you do not understand these things?11 Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen, but you[f] do not receive our testimony. 12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things?13 No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.

      Reign edayz hey! I could make a really convincing argument to prove you wrong but I'm not going to because if that's your opinion and I have mine I'm not going to try to change your mind because it would be a waste of time. God loves you and it doesn't matter what our opinion is as long as we know that sin is wrong and that God is disappointed when we sin against Him. I would rather take time to talk to someone who doesn't know God about salvation than start a youtube debate about which sins are greater. All sin is wrong.Thank you for the opportunity to have this discussion! No offense meant in any way. God bless you too!

    While on my walk with Jesus I sometimes slip and fall. And when I do the pain and grieve in my spirit and heart is so agonizing because it makes me feel separated from My Lord and that’s a very lonely sad feeling. Feeling separated from my creator. Jesus was the Perfect example of love and God.

      THIS IS THE GOOD NEWS🎁
      WE MUST REPENT OF OUR SELF- RIGHTEOUSNESS AND ASK CHRIST TO FILL US WITH HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH RESULTS IN SALVATION which means DELIVERANCE. WE CANNOT DELIVER OURSELVES FROM SIN. THE GIFT OF GOD IS HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS BY FAITH. DAILY ASK CHRIST FOR HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND YOU WILL BE DELIVERED FROM SIN.
      Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
      2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
      3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
      4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
      5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
      6 But the RIGHTEOUSNESS which is of FAITH (the spirit) speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
      7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
      8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the WORD OF FAITH, which we preach;
      9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
      10 For with the heart man BELIEVETH unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the mouth CONFESSION is made unto salvation.
      11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
      12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
      13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
      Ephsians2:8 For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through FAITH. And this [salvation] (deliverance) is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God;
      SARA: Girl I have been struggling with sexual sin and I've been trying to stay away from it but I still have this over bearing desire which cause me to stumble.
      TINA: Sara the good news is that once christ died at the cross and defeated the devil we are now free to serve Christ when we are born again. Christ destroyed the curse on our soul (will, mind, emotions...desires), Christ has given us His RIGHTEOUSNESS through the power of the Holy spirit which we receive by FAITH (which is your spiritual currency) through the word of God. So daily ASK to be FILLED with the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ because matthew 5:6 says BLESSED are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness for they shall be FILLED.” our works are in the spirit FIRST which is the WORKS of FAITH (spiritual CURRENCY)and BELIEF IN THE WORD OF GOD. The word of God says seek FIRST the kingdom of God and His RIGHTEOUSNESS (spiritual)and all these THINGS( natural) will be added. Our BLESSINGS come through the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ by Holy spirit THROUGH FAITH AND BELIEF IN WHAT THE WORD OF GOD HAS SPOKEN.
      SARA; wow! I've been focusing on my works hoping I'll get better instead of asking to be filled DAILY with the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST through the works of my FAITH in Him and BELIEF in the word of God and what He has spoken. So you say FAITH is my CURRENCY and I should use it no matter how my situation looks in the natural realm. Hebrews 11:6 says: And without FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God, because anyone who comes to him must BELIEVE that he is, and that he REWARDS those who DILIGENTLY seek him. I must patiently wait for my reward of having FAITH AND BELIEF. Lord fill me with your RIGHTEOUSNESS through the power of the Holy spirit so I will have the DESIRE to walk sexually pure before you. Lord thank you for your mercy amen.
      Ephesian 2:9 not as a result of [your] works [nor your attempts to keep the Law], so that no one will [be able to] BOAST or TAKE CREDIT in any way [for his salvation].
      Jesus said he will FILL us with his RIGHTEOUSNESS by FAITH.MATTHEW 5:6 Our HEART and DESIRE being FILLED with the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ starts the WORKS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS then its expressed in our behavior which is HOLINESS. Our DESIRE is changed from a DESIRE TO SIN to a DESIRE TO LIVE HOLY. HOLINESS IS THE PRODUCT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. THIS INNER WORK of the HOLY SPIRIT PRODUCE THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS which is SALVATION and HOLINESS so ask DAILY for CHRIST to FILL YOU with His RIGHTEOUSNESS and the HOLY SPIRIT will destroy your DISIRE to COMMIT THE SIN YOU STRUGGLE WITH DAILY. That's why at the end of the day we GLORY IN CHRIST and not OURSELVES because CHRIST does the WORK through the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Our RITUALS DON'T DELIVER us from HABITUAL SIN ONLY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST through the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT which DESTROYS the DESIRE TO SIN to a DESIRE LIVE HOLY which is the FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.

    I encourage everyone here to read Hebrews 10, especially verses 2, 3, 9, 10, 12, 14, 17, 18, 22 ("evil conscience" is guilty conscience in Greek). This is an eye opening chapter. We are called to rest in Him.
