I just finished college and at the moment I'm sitting on the couch all day because I'm currently looking for a job, but haven't found one yet. At the same time I'm having a problem regarding self control, I've become addicted to video games and the internet (irony because I'm writing this on a...

I have a really short temper, and I find it very important to keep it because I know it's a horrible sin when I burst out in wrath. Another reason why I don't want to lose my temper is because I can get really - I mean really - violent once someone or something goes over my tipping point. I'm...

I struggle to trust in Christ alone for my salvation, even though I know he's the only way to eternal life. I've struggled with scrupulosity over the past year and I've recently started to take medication (Fluoxetine). It helped to reduce my problem a lot, but I still have this heavy burden in...

I live in the first world so I think that I'm a lot wealthier financially compared to the average person in the world. However I find it very difficult to decide how much money I should tithe. I love to give money to people in need but my OCD and my problems with pride and self-righteousness...

I've been plagued by blasphemous thoughts since October last year, the month after I was baptized. Scrupulosity already was an issue before that (compulsively burning candles, I could only pray in a certain position on a certain place in a certain matter and I always had to wash my hands before...

I have a problem with legalism because of OCD related issues. And it's very hard to get rid of so I wanted to share my problem here. The problem is that every time I try to do something that benefits someone else, I instantly get this worry in my head telling me ''You're only doing this so that...

Hello, I'm in a bit of a difficult situation. My mother and I are Christian but my stepdad and my sister are not (I think they are agnostic, but I don't know for sure if they believe in an afterlife). I tried to share the gospel with them a few times without trying to be too pushy or forcing it...

I've been suffering from intrusive thoughts with for the last several months. I think that it started around the time when I read about the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit and the unforgivable sin. I didn't know what it meant at the time and suddenly the intrusive thoughts started acting up...

I have a fear that I'm not an actual Christian and that I'm deceiving myself. I'm afraid that I belong to the group of people Jesus mentioned in Matthew 7:21-23 because I still can have a very weak faith at times and then I start to trust in things that I do instead of Jesus Himself for my...

How can I overcome uncontrollable fits of rage in which I'm literally kicking and screaming on the ground? I know rage is one of the works of the flesh mentioned in Galatians 5 and that God hates it, but I can't seem to get myself under control when it happens. It literally hurts my stomach...

I've had a discussion today with my half-sister (who is an atheist but somehow still believes in the existence of an afterlife) about what kind of people are going to heaven. I said that in order to enter God's presence one has to put his faith in Jesus Christ who paid for each one of our sins...

Is having sinful desires an act of sin if you don't act out on it? For example: I can get seething with anger in my head when things don't work out the way I expected, but I just can't prevent it from happening. It just goes automatically. The good thing is that I managed with God's help to not...

I'm trying to become a born again Christian but I can't let certain aspects of my old personality go. I've overcome a lot of sins with the help of Jesus Christ which I was continuously practicing such as watching inappropriate contentography, taking the Lord's name in vain, lying, blaming others instead of...
