Old reformed Baptist seeks to encourage

[Kennesaw42]

Dear Brethren:
Old fashioned salutation, 'cause I'm an old guy (68), suffering from advanced prostate cancer, recently relocated to western U.S. with my family.
Due to my illness, I feel my opportunities for serving God are limited, and hope I may at least here, in some small way, be led of God to encourage my brothers, especially any who have a history of struggling with sexual sin/addiction, something I struggled with most of my life, until dramatically delivered 14 mo ago when I was diagnosed and put on libido-snuffing Lupron. I know it's a taboo sort of subject, but I also know that many many Christian men struggle in this area, especially in the world we live in now, with all the horrors (as well as blessings) just a few clicks away via internet. I wish this were not so, but it is, and I don't have all that much time left to beat around the bush about such an endemic problem that affects Christ's body, to the destruction of souls and families, today. To any such brothers I want to say right here that there is help available, but only to those willing to reach out for help.
God bless you all and lead you to places of true refreshment and healing.

Welcome to Christian Forums. I am so sorry that you have cancer. If you are wanting to help men with sexual addiction there is in the Men's section of the forum a sub forum on Pornography Addiction Support. You might find that of interest. I will be praying for you!

Welcome to the forums, Kennesaw, from one old Reformed Baptist to another! Sorry to hear of your cancer, brother...
glad to sense you're finding the Lord faithful!

Thank you NoelAsa, Dark Lite, and Dr. Mac the kilted Texan, for your kind welcome. And thanks Mac for the Spurgeon quote. Being a shut-in now, it's good to have a small window of communication with like-minded guys.
