Thinking of leaving all this behind....

[looking4answers]

I dont know where to put this post so Ill just stick it here. I am seriuosly thinking about leaving all of it behind. God and the whole church bit. I don't know how many times I have asked God to help me. I keep on doing the same horrible sin over again. I don't know how many times I have gotten on my knees and asked God to take this sin away from me and the next day I do the same thing over again. I have accepted the Lord into my heart. At least I think I did. I I dunno, but when I think am leaving I feel like I am leaving something big behind. It makes me cry harder. I have put this same post on a exchristian forum and they say they experinced the same thing. I dont want to leave God behind but it seems like this is my only option since He isnt helping me.

You are doing the right thing by speaking to the group here. regarding the frustrating repeated sin. We are supposed to be confessing our sin to one another for healing. I would imagine that things may be getting better for you. At least you are begging God for help. There are many who know what is wrong and do it anyway! Even the apostle Paul struggled with this, saying "the good that I want to do...I don't do it. The thing that is wrong...that is the exact thing that I do! Disgusting man, that is what I am. Who will set me free from this dead, disgusting situation I live in? Thank you GOD for it has been done through Jesus Christ." (my paraphrase..) The problem that we have is that we are still struggling against and with the flesh and blood that we live with and that we live in. We are all looking forward to the day when "we are perfected in Christ".

I will pray for you. We all need to pray for each other in this matter.
