Why would you do an inner search, when Jesus said your innards are corrupt?

Mark 7:21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
Inner searching is a requirement for those drawn to the spiritual life. That's just the way it is.

Kylie,What hurts is your life is soaked in skepticism,and by my analysis you find it hard to have faith in anything.Like I told the other fellow here,I can’t force you to do anything(and I wouldn’t want to either) I can’t make you have faith,because the Lord doesn’t work like that.If you want to live your life the way you have it now,so be it,But it saddens me.I wish you only the best!
Ah, I love this. You can't answer my questions, so all you have is, "Can you please lower your standards to the point where you don't need actual proof, and just believe in what I'm telling you is true."

No no no!,Im not saying that,I’m merely gently pointing out the truth in Love.If you have more Id be more than happy to answer as many as you have,Now please know because I’m a devout Christian,I’m not saying I have all the answers,that honor belongs to God alone.But I can answer best to my grace given ability,with the knowledge given to me by The Lord.


What I am saying,gently,with honesty from Love,Is that skepticism and doubt never leads to peace,people who are skeptical over everything never find true peace,Which is found in Jesus alone.Please know I’m here to answer question s you have as best as I can,and am glad to as well.

You can say what you want,. but it still boils down to me expecting actual evidence for your claim means I'm not going to get any.

And if there's no evidence for a claim, why should I believe it?

Telling me to just accept it because it will make me feel happier is no way to find the truth.

I can explain an undeniable fact to you,but I don’t think Itd work because I worry you’d doubt that too…..

If it's undeniable, then there must be evidence for it. Tell me the fact, show me the evidence for it, and if that evidence can withstand scrutiny, then I'll accept the fact. Simple as that.

What is this need of yours to butt in on other people's conversations just to admit that you are incapable of responding to them?

The best explanation I can think of is that these accounts are your sock puppets and you've forgotten to log out of one account and log into the one you want to respond with.

It's the way this site censors profanity. If you say a word that's listed on this site's list of naughty words, any time you write that word, each letter of the word in question will be replaced with [bless and do not curse].

For example, if "cat" was listed as a bad word, then the sentence, "I fed my cat this morning" would appear as "I fed my [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] this morning."

Apparently, you've never questioned your own supposed "standards" so.....you feel stuck.

Should I add a question mark to the end of that?

Where I have skepticism and doubt galore is in the statement that peace can be found only in Jesus. The reason being is that there are millions and millions of people around the world who have found peace through other means than Jesus.
