Hey man, I understand. Remember, this is part of your journey you aren't at the destination. Satan would have you live under shame and guilt which will always lead you back to your lust. But, learn to glory in the Cross, and the forgiveness it offers. the more you celebrate that, the less...

i dont think you would be here asking if God wasnt working on u. im the same age and married but still deal as well. But i dont doubt that im saved and I know God is still working on me.

We were never holding Him up...so we can't let Him down. Our sin doesn't make him any less God - Just as our obedience doesn't make him any more God. His laws and commands are for our good. I guess the question is, if you got fatter, would that affect your ability to do more for God's Kingdom...

Very insightful, man. I have found that when I remember that Jesus died to take away my shame and the pain of my sinful nature, I can look at the topic without that filter of guilt...then, God can begin to help me see the actual problem. Satan would rather us live in shame and never be free of...

In my long years of being a true Believer, fairly open minded man and honest with myself...I have learned a few things: 1. sexuality and inappropriate content preference are two different things. 2. Issues with inappropriate content and sex are symptoms not the disease. 3. Jesus died to take away our sin and shame and satan's...

looking for other married guys to talk to and encourage each other.

interested to learn more about your thoughts. I have always felt the same way about accountability.

Interesting. Well since God created us, it would make sense that he would implant a means of communication. When I researched DMT, they said that it was present in almost all animals and plants, and seemed to be a communication chemical on a level we do not understand yet. I don't have any...

Whatever church you are in that is telling you things like that...get out! Live in the Spirit not the Flesh (Galations 5) Do you know who accuses and brings up our past? Satan. Jesus never did that. He did however have harsh things to say about people who preached the law and not Grace.

I felt the same thing. I don't think she realizes it, but she hasn't completely broken it off. Subconsciously using her son, as a way to keep him in their lives when he doesn't deserve to be. I am not saying that she should keep her son from his father--just don't bring him into her new...

There is alot of confusion here. It boils down to if you want your boyfriend in your life longterm. 1. If you want to marry this guy....Put your boyfriend first--not your ex. He is apparently invested in you and your son, or none of this would have bothered him. He obviously cares that your...

I am a firm believer that we teach people how to treat us. This is especially true in women. Women have a natural drive to "test" their man. It isn't something they like about themselves, but it is a God-given instinct (if you will) to determine if her man is strong enough to take care of her...

I've never tried an accountability partner...not sure if it works or not. Not a topic I can talk about with men I know.

wow, I am so sorry it offended you that I suggest reading the Bible is a good thing. :/ the pharisees were interpreting (and adding to) moses' law...and talking about the Bible which includes Jesus teachings. What is your suggestion for seeking God?

Honestly, I know alot of people that left the methodist church for the same reason. Every church is different. I have found calvary chapels to be about the most Bible centered as far as teaching goes. They stricktly teach verse by verse of the Bible. Its hard to get too far off course that way.
