[QUOTE="Skaloop, post: 60191395, member: 148393"] Some people think it does, and act that way. It is one of the reasons I am not a believer myself. However, many Christians will tell you that being a Christian is not just about believing in Christ's salvation so that you can avoid hell for the sins you commit. Rather, Christianity is about a personal relationship with God/Jesus, a relationship by which you are transformed and enlightened so that your desire to sin is reduced (not eliminated, but reduced). If you continue to struggle with the sins you mention, that relationship with Jesus will help you address the urges and deal with them in a healthier manner. I guess it depends on your goal. Do you just want to stop feeling guilty about your sins when you do them, or do you actually want to make personal changes so that you don't do them any more? [/QUOTE]
