    Knowing things?

    I don't have much time, got to get out soon, so I'll be brief: Many things in life that might seem to have a connection, might actually just be one of many possible coincidences. With so many things going on in our mind, some things we are not even aware of, it's not strange that sometimes the...

    To properly keep the devil away from you?

    That suck. Does the moderators just ban people without other reasons then some jerk pressing the report button as a tool against anyone they don't like? If so, it's no big tragedy to find some other place on the internet to talk to Christians about our faith. Thank you for your post. I have a...

    To properly keep the devil away from you?

    Yes, I'm very sensitive. I've become good at reading people through life and you don't want me any good. I forgive you, but I rather not have any more replies from you. I hope you won't experience any of the same things I've gone through, then to be told by fellow Christians that you are having...

    How can you know which books of the Bible are inspired?

    If anyone write something about God that raise the faith and other virtues, is within certain doctrines not considered heresy, are commonly used among believers etc. then it could be said to be inspired by God. It's too long since the canon of the bible got agreed on, many other works were much...

    working through anxiety and unbelief

    Maybe it's just hard for you to see how God love you, as you are having problems in life. Even if you know what the bible say, about how God actually love us. With your recovering addiction, you fear not being loved by God, perhaps because you feel like you have not or are not being such a...

    To properly keep the devil away from you?

    You are a bit patronizing about what you consider my feelings, and mix them together as if I think feelings are God. But that is not the case. The metaphor for "feeling like the hands are made of lead" is not about uncomfortable feelings, but a description of my relationship with reality and...

    To properly keep the devil away from you?

    Eeastern-Orthodox is what i feel is closest to my sense of what Christianity is about, I love byzantine chanting, the hymns, incense and try to stay true to the origial faith, like all the body of Christ used to be (until the patriarch in Rome insisted on being the best one, and until...

    To properly keep the devil away from you?

    Thank you all for the answers, I do certainly need it. Going for an appointment soon at a therapist. The first time I met her, I spent a full hour crying hysterically when I admitted my disapointment in God not helping me. Probably didn't help her much in her clinical view on religion as...

    To properly keep the devil away from you?

    I prayed yesterday about the pain I'm living in, not physical but psychologically and begged to feel alive again. Constanly feeling attacked by mind, burning arrows in the soul. Condemnation and judgement was what my life have been filled about for decades. Being the worst person, alone in the...

    Transsexual, bisexual, drug-addict, criminal, severly mentally ill Christian.

    Girder of Loins: Thanks for kind words. I have, and can gladly confess again that Jesus is Lord and God knows I do believe. I just don't understand why I have to go through all of this. I think it is written that none will be given more then he can bare, but this don't seem to be the case for...

    Identifying Sin

    If you do something you feel you should not do, then you are doing something sinful.

    Transsexual, bisexual, drug-addict, criminal, severly mentally ill Christian.

    Haven't been here for a year or two. Just wanted to make a post to see if I'll get any reasonable advice about my life-situation. If not, then I probably won't bother to log in again, since the last time I was here looking for help, I had people saying I was not a Christian at all, and the last...

    I've failed at everything.

    Since the last time I logged in here about 6 months ago, I've been at rehab, been homeless, getting into drugs again, started using opiates and injecting amphetamine, been almost 2 months at a psychiatric hospital, one of the times because of a suicide attempt, diagnosed with transsexualism...

    "Who would want a refill if it stinks?"

    Strange, later in the day I noticed something about sowing good fruits on a tv, just a glimpse, and it seemed to talk to me somehow, and now i remembered when you mentioned the fruit-verses, and I was thinking about the same ones earlier

    "Who would want a refill if it stinks?"

    I woke up this morning from a song I was singing in my dream. It was a kind of silly song, with an annoying tune to it, and I sang "Who would want a refill if it stinks?" And I've been thinking about this the whole day. I've been thinking it might be some kind of sign that my soul is rotten and...
