The Addiction To Sin and Evil

[TheLionOfGod]

At one point in my life here on earth I was addicted to sin and evil. So much to the point that I even stopped lying to myself and God about it. I told God that not only was I addicted to sin and evil but I loved it. I told God the truth. That I loved sin and evil more than I loved him. In fact at that point in time the truth was that I did not love God at all. I used God. I took God for granted. All I wanted was what I wanted. I could have cared less about how God felt or what he wanted. At that time I wasn't even aware that God had feelings just like I did. All God was to me was a meal ticket. A free ride to where ever I dreamed I could go. He was my escape goat.

I was addicted to sin and evil.

I will try to help anyone who wants to try to break their addiction to sin and evil. Even if it is to repent from just 1 sin.

I hate to break it to you, but you are still an addict to sin. We all are. This is why we are called to repentance, called to humility, called to forgiveness, called to confess our sins.

This is why we can all pray, "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner."

Lord have mercy.
Christ have mercy.

Romans 3 says that all the lost - are addicted to sinning and to evil.

It is our sinful nature.

But for those that are born again we are "new creations" according to 2Cor 5.

We have the new heart, the inner man that is being built up in Christ "No longer I who live but CHRIST that lives IN ME". Gal 2:20.

And with that comes the Romans 6 promise of freedom from slavery to sinning.

"Sin shall not be master over you" Romans 6.

"The one whom you obey - that is the one that is your master".

in Christ,

Bob

They always say

"We are all sinners."

To which I say yes there are 2 groups of sinners.

The sinners that will not repent.

The sinners that will repent.

I do not believe that God will let the sinners that will not repent into His Kingdom.

Ephesians, Chapter 5
1:Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
2:And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
3:But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
4:Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
5:For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6:Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
7:Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
8:For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
9:For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth
10Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
11:And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
12:For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
13:But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
14:Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
15:See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
16:Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17:Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
18:And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
19:Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
20:Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
21:Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

Do the people in your church match up to this standard set by God?

Don't him haw around and give me 101 excuses just tell me like it really is.

If your church does not match up this.

Then you are not in the church Jesus built upon the rock.

Your in the church that men built upon the sand.

New Christians you must

In the Name of Jesus Christ

the gift of the

Holy Ghost.

=================================

#1

I was taught from the very beginning of my time here on Earth to be evil. Just about everything that I learned in some way shape or form was connected to evil. So not only did the addiction to all the bad habits and evil that I had learned and acquired had to be broken but

I HAD TO LEARN TO DO GOOD.

You must learn to

DO GOOD.

=================================

#2

I was taught from the very beginning of my time here on Earth to do everything to promote myself and others to bring myself and others all the pleasures and goods of this world. Just about everything that I learned in some way shape or form was connected to feeling the wonderful sensation of the good and pleasures of this world. So not only did the addiction to all the bad habits and evil that I had learned and acquired had to be broken but feeling the sensations and desires of all the goods and pleasures of this world I had to also overcome.

I HAD TO LEARN TO DENY MYSELF.

You must learn to

DENY THYSELF.

=================================

#3

I was taught from the very beginning of my time here on Earth to do everything to relieve and stop and avoid the suffering of myself and others this world to bring myself and others all the pleasures and goods of this world. Just about everything that I learned in some way shape or form was connected to feeling the wonderful sensation of the good and pleasures of this world AND TO AVOID ALL SUFFERING. So not only did the addiction to all the bad habits and evil that I had learned and acquired had to be broken but feeling the sensations and desires of all the goods and pleasures of this world I had to also overcome.

I HAD TO LEARN TO DENY MYSELF.

TO BECOME LONG SUFFERING.

YOU MUST LEARN TO BECOME LONG SUFFERING.

I am talking about the suffering due to being righteous and Holy to God or the suffering you endure as punishment to make you learn obedience etc etc etc.
====================================

I will never forget in fact from time to time I reflect upon the day and moment the Spirit of the Lord spoke to my soul and said that He was going to teach me to become long suffering.

I got this sick feeling all over me.

My soul knew what I was in for and I knew the Lord had spoke this upon me.

Sure enough...it came to pass.

====================================

#4

Then I had to learn to be OBEDIENT.

You must learn to be OBEDIENT.

Obedience is doing exactly everything as in accordance to what is acceptable to the Lord.

Anything that is not acceptable to the Lord is disobedience.

YOU MUST LEARN WHAT IS AND WHAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE TO THE LORD.

To do this ...

YOU MUST KNOW THE LORD.

Regardless of what they say and what you are told.

99.99999....% of all people on Earth.

DO NOT KNOW THE LORD.

Even if they read the bible...study the bible...pray every day....say hail Mary no matter how many times a day...bow down on a rug 5 times a day...rub beads all day long...go to church every time the doors are open...watches christian TV all day long...etc etc etc

THEY STILL DO NOT KNOW THE LORD.

======================================

#5

I had to learn to overcome TEMPTATION.

YOU MUST LEARN TO OVERCOME TEMPTATION.

Temptation is EVERYWHERE. It is even in your house. Unless you remove it.

You encounter temptation from the time you get up till the time you go to bed.

This is a never ending endeavor to over come temptation. The less you place yourself in the way of temptation the less you will encounter and have to overcome.

I avoid all temptation like the plague. IT IS HARD. VERY HARD. NEVER ENDING.

It is a full time. All the time.

========================================

#6
I HAD TO BREAK MY ADDICTION TO SIN.


You have to break your addiction to sin.

==========================================

So now you have said the sinner's prayer or made Jesus your Lord and savior. Or you asked Jesus into your heart. Or you believed upon his name or by whatever doctrine you became saved you are now IN. YOU ARE NOW SAVED AND HAVE ETERNAL LIFE IN HEAVEN. And have told everyone for 2 weeks you are a new creature and have been floating around on cloud 9.

But one morning you woke up and got out of bed and YOU GO...HEY WHERE DID THAT GREAT FEELING GO? And then you noticed that all the problems you use to have...ARE STILL THERE.

SO NOW WHAT DO YOU DO?

I TELL YO WHAT YOU DO.

IT IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.

You must learn to

DO GOOD.

You must learn to

DENY THYSELF.

YOU MUST LEARN TO BECOME LONG SUFFERING.

You must learn to be OBEDIENT.

YOU MUST LEARN TO OVERCOME TEMPTATION.

YOU HAVE TO BREAK YOUR ADDICTION TO SIN.

WELCOME

TO THE WORLD

OF

JESUS THE CHRIST.

===========================================

YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW.

YOU sow SIN.

YOU ARE GOING TO GET THE WAGES OF SIN.

John, Chapter 3
20: For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21: But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

#7

ALL YOUR DEEDS MUST BE OF GOD.

Everything you do Jesus said you are to bring it to the Light to test it and see if it is of God. For example what I am doing here is of God. I am trying to help someone repent from sin and save them from the wages of sin. THIS IS OF GOD.

===================================


You can save your self from your own sins by repenting(Which Jesus the redeemer showed us how to do) from those sins.

Jesus came to show us that this is possible with God.

I will prove it to you.

If you stop smoking cigarettes then you will save yourself from the sin of smoking tobacco.

As long as you smoke tobacco you are living in that sin.

The minute you quit and not go back to it...you have repented and ceased from that sin.

Same with getting drunk.

Or telling lies.

This applies with any sin.

WHEN YOU FOLLOW JESUS IT WILL REDEEM YOU FROM SIN.

Because to follow Jesus you have to repent from sin.

That is one reason they call him the REDEEMER.

the LionOfGod-

Your arrogance is astounding. Do you actually believe that you are more powerful than Jesus Christ himself? Shame on you!

Our sinful nature is subdued through the power of God himself, and it is only through his power that we obtain the new nature essential for our speaking righteous words and performing righteous actions:

So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other, so that you do not do what you want. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law.

The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other. (Galatians 5:16-26,NIV)

Can you pick apples from a grape vine? Can you pick good fruit from a tree that has its roots firmly implanted in poison? Of course you cannot. And in the same manner you cannot use the sinful nature, which is the nature all of us have been born with, in order to perform acts of righteousness. In order for the acts to be righteous, the underlying motivations which culminate in those acts being performed must themselves be righteous. And there are no righteous motivations in the sinful nature, but only those motivations which culminate in the commission of sinful acts.

It is only when God subdues our sinful nature and himself gives us the new nature that we become capable of performing acts of righteousness. 'The fruit of the Spirit' are the motivations which must be the origin of all our words and actions if those words and actions are to be seen as righteous. Just as the motivations listed under the heading 'the acts of the sinful nature' are the origin of every sinful act, the motivations listed under the heading 'the fruit of the Spirit' are the origin of every act of righteousness.

But we cannot purchase this new nature, nor can we earn it. We must instead accept it as a gift from God, just as we must accept our salvation as a gift from God. It is through what he is capable of doing, rather than its being through what we ourselves can accomplish, that both our salvation and the new nature which enables us to live righteous lives has been made accessible to us.

Dear Harry,

I want to thank you. For bringing it to my attention that the measure of faith and grace God gave to me is so powerful and over whelming that you find it arrogant and astounding.

That is Excellent. This makes me feel very good to know that I believe what Jesus said I could do so much that you are so overwhelmingly awestruck by it.

John, Chapter 14, 012: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

Thank God for this witness.

 

[Bible2]

Gal. 5:18 includes a conditional "if", for the Holy Spirit doesn't take away the free will of saved people (1 Thes. 5:19). They can wrongly employ their free will to commit sin without repentance, to the ultimate loss of their salvation (Heb. 10:26-29, 1 Cor. 9:27, Mt. 7:22-23). Similarly, Gal. 5:22 isn't contradicting the fact truly saved people can wrongly employ their free will to quench the Spirit (1 Thes. 5:19) & indulge in fleshly pursuits (Gal. 5:17-21,26) without repentance, to the ultimate loss of their salvation (Gal. 5:19-21, Lk. 12:45-46, 2 Pet. 2:20-22, Rom. 8:13, 1 Jn. 5:16, Jas. 5:19-20).

Gal. 5:22-23's fruits are the fruits of Christians themselves (Lk. 6:44, 8:15, Jn. 15:8, Mt. 7:19, Philip. 4:17), but only so long as they choose to walk in the Spirit (Gal. 5:25-26) & abide in Jesus (Jn. 15:4-6), instead of wrongly employing their free will to quench the Spirit (1 Thes. 5:19) & not abide in Jesus (Jn. 15:6) & not bear good fruit (Jn. 15:2a), such as by wrongly employing their free will to become utterly lazy without repentance, to the ultimate loss of their salvation (Mt. 25:26,30, Jn. 15:2a,6).
