“When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. And he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make preparations for him. But the people did not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem. And when his...

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the...

“For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the...

SCRIPTURE: 'But they couldn’t reach him because of the crowd. So they went up to the roof and took off some tiles. Then they lowered the sick man on his mat down into the crowd, right in front of Jesus. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the man, “Young man, your sins are forgiven.” Luke 5:19-20...

I have posted about something similar to this before, but just feel really drawn to seek advice around this so thought I would just share. I am a bit confused as to how to feel about something... Last Friday I went to bed later than I knew I should have at the time. I could have set my alarm...

By these scriptures, are we to believe that God has genuinely not just forgiven, but forgotten our sins? Heb_8 12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. (Lit. I will by no means remember any more.) Isaiah 43 25. I, even I...

Hi, guys, I know dealing with intrusive thoughts is difficult due to shame and anxiety etc. Today, I come to you with a message of deliverance. I had struggle with having wicked thoughts for 12 years now, but not today. Today, I choose to be obedient to the Lord, by following the Ten...

Hi, There are times when I don't want to do something, feeling it may be a sin, but I intentionally go ahead anyway as it feels too hard not to. Then although afterwards I confess what I have done to God, I feel if I was in the same position again, I probably wouldn't act differently. Today...

Hi. This is my first time posting on here. Thank you for taking the time to read this and hopefully reply with biblical guidance/advice. I was saved in July of 2021. Before that I was deeply into the new age/occult. I was incredibly selfish and I abruptly ended my friendships with three of my...

Hi there, So we know that Jesus said "Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do" on the Cross, but what we understand little of, is that Christ mixed this with faith, even as He died. Christ knew He was not trying to save the righteous, but that righteousness be fulfilled, He ensured...

I was eating dinner with my friend and I had intrusive thought attack about the Holy Spirit. And I was about to move my tongue out as was wearing a mask like microscopic inch and the thought was trying to make me say it but I stopped myself. And tried to change the word in my head to something...

If we accept Christ we are forgiven of our sins, but why does our children need to accept Christ as well if our sins are completely redeemed? Will we ever be able to go back to God's original plan, creating a world without sin? Or do we need to constantly be forgiven of our sins every generation?

I have been in search (for at least a year now) of a copy of a story i heard on the radio. I do not remember the date. It was at least a year ago that I heard the story/interview on the radio. Problem is I don't remember which station I heard it on. It may have been on the satellite radio...

Hi there, So this is the litmus test, for any believer (in principle): if you understood you were forgiven, even to the point that you forgave what the anti-Christ did, would you forgive the Devil? The problem is, if you would forgive the Devil, what would you forgive the Devil for? He doesn't...

1 Peter 3:8-9 ESV Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind. Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing. This is written to the church...

Hello everyone, I remembered that after a crisis with my abusive family that occurred months ago while I was having severe psychiatric issue that almost everyone apologized for what they did to me. Which included my parent's being abusive and my boyfriend for acting harshly though they also...

I was reading the letter from 1john and there are 2 texts that seems to contradict each other. The first is 1john 1: 9 When we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. the second is1 John 3:16 Everyone who is born of God...

Dear God, Forgive them. Forgive the people who have left your guidance. I'm sure you remember how I left you at one point. I came back but others have not. Its not because they're evil. They are afraid deep down that truth will never come to them. Fear is powerful as we both know. Forgive them...

I was bullied tremendously growing up, and a few years ago, was targeted and railroaded at work. I pray all the time to forgive and forget, but then I catch myself thinking about these people, past memories, and I find myself always mad. I can't seem to get rid of it! I'm still hurt. As for...
