  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

MRLEE, God is with us at all times. Even when we are at our lowest, He's there. You need to rebuke the devil in Jesus name to get through some of the things you are going through. You should speak with a minister one-on-one, do you have someone in your community with whom you trust? I will be praying for you and your situation. Resist the devil and he will flee!

Although I am somewhat of a new Christian, one thing has been helping me along, and that is the fact that God created you for his pleasure, and he delights in you, flaws and all. You are beautiful to him, and judging by what you've written, you're beautiful to me as well.

The glut of internet pornography has snared a lot of people, but don't fear. A sincere communication with God will help you in this matter. Trust me on this. There are also a number of Christian ministries dealing with this problem. Do a Google search on "porn addiction".

Bless you, my friend.

-Bible quote said:
LUKE 7;

40 And Jesus, replying, said to him, Simon, I have something to say to you. And he answered, Teacher, say it.
41 A certain lender of money [at interest] had two debtors: one owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 When they had no means of paying, he freely forgave them both. Now which of them will love him more?
43 Simon answered, The one, I take it, for whom he forgave and cancelled more. And Jesus said to him, You have decided correctly.

LUKE 17;

3 Pay attention and always be on your guard [looking out for one another]. If your brother sins (misses the mark), solemnly tell him so and reprove him, and if he repents (feels sorry for having sinned), forgive him.
4 And even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and turns to you seven times and says, I repent [I am sorry], you must forgive him (give up resentment and consider the offense as recalled and annulled).
You can never sin too much for God to forgive. Just go and ask Him to forgive it! He'll change you. In this life, putting down sinful ways is tough, usually a long process, but He will change you, slowly but surely!

Ok MRLEE, you feel inferior to other people. Of course Christ say's that you're not. You know that, but you dont believe it. That's fine, but you may want to consider finding a fellowship with people like you. Perhaps an online resource. It doesn't have to be christian. You should realize, however, that Jesus is right there. He's right where you are. He's in you, through you, and around you. Most importantly, He loves you. Porn or no porn. I emphasise...porn or no porn! Don't let satan drive you into a guilt that leads to depression. Ask Christ to help you turn from your sin but don't dwell on it. Pray. Ask. Let the guilt float away and the ask Jesus to show you a different route when you feel like looking at it. If you fail, repeat as necessary! If satan loves anything, I believe it's guilt. It's just too easy to use against us!
