    sexually confused

    Hi Daretobelieve! Please hang in there. I'm sure satan would love for you to believe that if you just give in to sin you'll be able to 'get it out of your system' and then feel better - but that's not true. Giving in to a sinful desire doesn't make it go away, it only intensifies it and...

    I need advice

    I agree with Criada that you should tell her - honesty is so important in a relationship, and especially if she's someone that you're considering for marriage. If she is also considering you for marriage, she deserves to go into it knowing all the facts. Praying for you both!

    1 year!

    Firefly, congratulations!!! That is a MAJOR accomplishment, and please don't feel like one slip ruins that. Remember Paul's words in Phillippians 3:13-15: "Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining...

    having trouble..

    Hi Nickie. I don't know anything about Pure O OCD or HOCD...is there medicine that will help to curb the thoughts? You've said that you have a boyfriend you love dearly, and that the thought of being with a woman freaks you out, so I would guess that your illness is causing these unwanted...

    What I find to be sad, about Messianic Judaism.

    I am pretty sure that LLOJ would like people to post on this thread, so here I am. I don't really know enough about messianic judaism to give an informed respone about that...but the Thanksgiving thread was pretty funny. :)

    Comment on the first impression

    I don't know much about woodworking, but as a writer I definitely understand the importance of editing and revision. I didn't realize this was a rough draft. With so many revisions left to go through, your piece will undoubtedly be quite different by the time it's finished and will then make a...

    Comment on the first impression

    I'm one of those 'disinterested in Fantasy' people, so I won't comment on hook, content or style. I do feel qualified to point out the tense issues, which would be a problem regardless of genre. (Make sure your verbs are all either past or present tense.) Commas were also frequently misused...

    The Black Album

    Hi Daniel! I think it's great that you know your gift and are using it. By starting young, you have a great advantage over those of us who took longer to figure it out. ;) Sounds like you've got a good start - keep going! :) Your fellow writer and sister in Christ, Jess

    Overcoming masturbation & homosexuality

    Hi Daniel! I'm so glad to hear that you've rededicated your life to Christ, and that you're taking steps to get inappropriate contentography out of your life. :) I will certainly pray for you. And please don't be discouraged - being close to God doesn't mean that we will be freed from temptation. You may...

    husband & masturbation

    Hope, You are right about your husband's body belonging to you and vice versa, as per 1 Corinthians 7:4 - "The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife." This...

    Walking out of homosexuality

    Hi bChris! Thanks so much for sharing - you may not realize it, but your story is such an amazing testimony for Christ. It's okay to not share the details with all the new people you meet. You won't be lying if you simply say that you fell away from God for a few years but are now...

    Do you practice the exact same religion that you were raised in?

    No. I was raised without religion, and now I'm a Christian (Baptist). :)

    Hi John, You absolutely have my prayers and support. I don't struggle with homosexuality myself, but I have a dear Christian friend who does and for him I've learned a lot about it. I will be praying for you in general, and if you have any specific prayer requests or if there's anything else...

    Belly dancing and wishing I had more "sexual power"

    Ladybug, I stand by my previous advice. Again, most men struggle with sexual purity. It is WRONG when women treat this as some sort of game, trying to tempt them and make the battle harder. As per 1 Corinthians 10:32 - "Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God"...

    Don't know what to do, was taken advantage of

    Gflorentino, I'm confused. You say you're not gay and don't have homosexual attractions...but your profile lists you as female and you said that you kissed a gorgeous woman? Am I misunderstanding somehow? In any case, there's not much you can do about something that has already happened...
