So I messed up, big time. I did something truly evil:rage:, disgusting:mask:. Luckily, no one was too badly affected, although it did take a big hit on one or two:coldsweat: But I just feel so utterly disgusted with myself. The consequences of my actions would be very big, so I am hoping I am not punished too bad, but I pray for gods forgiveness, but being a (new?ish) believer, I'm not sure how. so could you please pray for gods forgiveness on me, and all others who need it.:anguished::bustsinsilhouette:
Thank you, God bless:yellowheart::yellowheart::yellowheart::kissingheart::bye:

Please remember this. I don't condone but I don't believe anyone should condemn anyone EVER. I also want you to remember Jesus died for all of us once and for all and as long as you know that you have done wrong and you repent, You are truly sorry and ask GOD's forgiveness and don't do it again. You will be forgiven. You sins will be forgotten, wiped from the book of inequities never to be mentioned again. Also You do not me an intermediary to pray for you dear friend. Jesus is your intermediary. If you pray to him you are forgiven. You need no help being heard. Please remember this. Prayer requests are a doubt of of his word and what he did for us. I know I'll get some flack for that but it is true. You are already forgiven if you are truly sorry.

I assume you are prepared to provide Scripture to back up that ludicrous statement?

Here are a few which beg to differ:

1 John 5:14, John 15:7, John 15:16, Mathew 21:21. I can go on. The last 2 I will stop at because they actually call out to me to explain myself a little more. In saying that my comment are ludicrous it shows how unwilling you are to really study in the word. Now yes you can have others pray with you and it helps to have unity and strength from your brethren in times of need. Even Jesus asked his disciples to pray continuously though they fell asleep. I said you do not NEED them to to have your prayers answered. Believing that shows a lack of your faith that Jesus either won't hear you, you need an intermediary, or you need added help to get your message through for that extra "kick" All of these are untrue for if you have faith the size of a mustard seed you can tell the mountain to move and it will leap into the sea. NOw do you know what I was saying? I hope I've made myself clearer and haven't caused anymore confusion. Strength and unity in the lord is for our added benefit for no man is an island and ecc. 4:12 says Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken. Having people to pray with you helps hold you accountable and reassures you. It's not for better "reception" they don't make a better antennae and it sure doesn't wear GOD down so he'll finally forgive you because he's asked so many times. I mean is that honestly the reasoning people have when they think this? If I have more people pray for forgiveness for me then GOD will have to forgive me. He'll get tired of hearing it? I don't mean to be condescending, I really want to know the reasoning.

I guess I understand what you are saying...I put the thread up because I had NO idea what to do. I have not been a Christian long, and I can admit that I did not have a massive faith, not because I didnt want to, but because I didnt really understand Christianity at all.. I understand that if I want forgiveness, I should pray to God, not ask others to do it for me, I just assumed it was acceptable to ask for prayers because of the way I am taught at Chruch, they are ALWAYS having prayer requests and stuff there lol. I just wanted somebody to help me a bit, I was suprised and really grateful for all the prayers on here, THANKS EVERYONE!!! I had NO idea how to pray...I had little faith.. so I just wanted to see how to pray in a sense if you get me. I wasnt trying to doubt God, I was kind of doubting my ability to talk to God..but thanks for your reply, I appreciate it...

ps: sorry for terrible grammar
