“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have Fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” (I John1:7
There is no sin known to man too terrible for the blood of Jesus to wash away, yet some people believe that they are unforgivable. They lead tormented lives never knowing the peace and love of Christ, which is available to them. Many of these people are Christians I believe, but the lives they lead are very much caught up in the concerns of the world
I have known some of these people and I remember one woman in particular who committed suicide because she could not live with her own torment. She was a member of the church we attended and a Christian. Yet she was in a living hell on Earth, because of sexual sin in a relationship with a man in the church. When the man she loved rejected her, see saw no way out except suicide. However, there was still forgiveness for her if she had only believed God’s Word. There is no sin too great for God to forgive.

Some here think God's talking about fellowship as man with man. that's not the truth. He talking about fellowship with Him. No wonder someone will kill themself if they try to have fellowship with all men. Talking about beating ones head agianst the wall.

We were close to this young woman who was a good friend of my wife. Yet apparently we were not close enough to see what she was going through that would lead her to kill herself. She did talk about this man who looked like a slick good-looking playboy type and who appeared to use our Church as a means of picking up girls. We knew him also and after her suicide we and the church rejected him. He left the church soon after.

Love is the answer you are so right. But man has taken that to mean lust or love in the flesh. Only bad things can come out of that. I feel for you friend so very deeply. If man had talked more of the light and least on the darkness then things made had been different. Man makes a bed of fools when they procliam the darkness as a ends to a means. Don't get me wrong I can tell you love her much and that a great thing. But as a body man try's to do what God has done to the glory of a man. I pray I make sense. Ken

I wonder about those men who use the Church as they would a bar to pick up girls. I suppose it can be the other way also with women looking for guys. Perhaps its just our nature as sexual beings, still some abuse their nature being carnal thus rejecting that nature of Christ that should be in them.

Yes i DO believe forgiveness is a gift, and is possible only through the Holy Spirit. It is a tragedy that this dear soul; was so entrapped in the lies of that liar from the beginning.

To sustain the belief that there is no God, atheism has to demonstrate infinite knowledge, which is tantamount to saying, "I have infinite knowledge that there is no being in existence with infinite knowledge" --Ravi Zacharias
‘If the solar system was brought about by an accidental collision, then the appearance of organic life on this planet was also an accident, and the whole evolution of Man was an accident too. If so, then all our present thoughts are mere accidents—the accidental by-product of the movement of atoms. And this holds for the thoughts of the materialists and astronomers as well as for anyone else’s. But if their thoughts—i.e. of materialism and astronomy—are merely accidental by-products, why should we believe them to be true? I see no reason for believing that one accident should be able to give me a correct account of all the other accidents. It’s like expecting that the accidental shape taken by the splash when you upset a milkjug should give you a correct account of how the jug was made and why it was upset.’

i hated it when God insisted i "yawp!"
but He knew i must,
and that my life would not begin,
until i yawped.
We all must learn to yawp.
we MUST awaken the passion,
that part of us that feels intensely,
and is NOT afraid to say so
or to express it.
Otherwise we are just dead men walking.

My wife and I were talking last night about the desperation that leads to suicide. We have had other close friends that killed themselves. I said to her, how strange it is that many of those that commit suicide had a wonderful future in front if only they could have seen themselves as others saw them.
Our next door neighbor, a wonderful young woman with a two year old son killed herself. My son was very close to her and it took a long time for him to get over her death. She had a reason to live and people that loved and I guess she just couldn't see that.

I believe the enemy "blinds" and "blocks" the "hope" that is before them, and distracts these poor souls from focusing on the "hope" that is God's promise. It is tragic.
