[QUOTE="Introverted1293, post: 71615341, member: 400381"] After I wrote what I wrote, I kind of felt really bad. I know that I am not supposed to lean on my own understanding. But my fear of God's wrath could be just my misunderstanding of God. I have been calling myself a Christian for years. But I was in sin. I have been living a life of pleasure. And I am now just starting to seek him. When somebody tells me that I have a wrong motivation, I get very defensive. But the truth is may be believers know what they're talking about. I don't know how to work up the right motivation for obeying God, or I should say my reason for wanting to obey God. I sound like I'm saying that I am perfect and thats not what I ment to say. I still struggle with sin. And yes, I fail quite a bit, but my reason for wanting to stop is the fear of God's wrath. So I apologize for my arrogance and thinking that I know it all. I don't consider myself a Christian, therefore I don't go to church. I have to figure these things out myself, and sometimes it brings our arrogance in me. [/QUOTE]
