    How many times have you asked to be saved?

    Update... Some days are better than others. I have been trying to do better this year. I go to church more regularly. I pray more regularly. It just pains me to have these doubts arise over and over and over again. When I was in the 6th or 7th grade, we had a royal ambassadors group that met...

    How many times have you asked to be saved?

    I would bet over the 16 or so years I've struggled with this that I have said 100s if not 1000s of prayers asking to be saved. If I'm not, it's not because of a lack of trying to be. It seems so repetitive at times when I rationalize and have moments of clarity. On the other hand there are...

    Newbie with Scrupe

    The bad thing is with all the questions that I want to answer "Yes", but part of me (presumably my OCD) is pondering my response if that makes any sense.

    Newbie with Scrupe

    My OCD was triggered when I was around 13. At the time, I had been saved the year before at a Royal Ambassadors' meeting or at least I think I had (my Scrupe has told me otherwise every day for 15 years).. Scrupe says I did it just because my friends did. Although there were three or four of...
