Tommy God has already forgiven you for your sin the moment you asked Jesus into your life and confessed him as Lord.From that point he paid for your sin in full past present future.It is not sin that stops us from being with the Lord so you are saved.The problem you are experiencing is the battle for your life in the here and now satan is out to destroy you and he knows our weaknesses.If you are honest there were already issues in your life that you
struggled with and never got the victory over.So where do you go from here as i found myself in the same situation i was a christian but walking according to the flesh.God does nt change his mind he always loves us but because of our choices we distance ourselves from God.The issue is that we
like sin thats our wicked hearts and to be fair we cant change our nature only Christ can do that our old nature must be crucified with Christ.The stumbling block is our pride we have to admit that we cant do it For me that was terribly difficult i was so independent thinking i could do anything but the truth was a made a real mess of things.I sense you are at a crossroads and are feeling desperate and confused.So as a brother in the Lord you need to confess your sin to God and tell him that you are weak -LCB- we all are -RCB- and that you cant do it in your strength -LCB- None of us can -RCB- but ask him to send the holy spirit to help you deal with the temptations and the sin that you
struggle with and he will help you to change your life he will empower you as he did me.Rather
than look at who you are look to Christ and walk in him and he will make you a new man and sin will not have dominion over you.Jesus came to set us free from bondage.Having once been a slave to sin i know what it is
like to have been set free by the power of God and that is what Christ is offering you today.All it takes is a desire to change or repent and admit we cant do it and trust him to give you the strength to walk in him regards brentnz
«WE HAVE THE VICTORY» For those
struggling with thoughts of unforgiveness and attacks on the mind especially deceiving thoughts and doubts these are from satan in the word they are called fiery darts we are to quench those darts by faith so we need to read the word and believe that Gods word is true.We also have the victory over these thoughts because when we accept Jesus the holy spirit dwells within us so satan does nt have authority over us he can not rule what belongs to God he can only deceive.We can not defeat the enemy in our strength we need the holy spirit when we try and overcome him in our strength we
struggle especially with our thoughs and in the area of sin.If you are having evil thoughts or doubts commit your way unto the Lord and let him fight your battle.Tell the enemy he has no authority over you that you are under the covering of Jesus Christ and when you have doubts memorise verses on faith ie greater is he that is in me
than he that is in the world.The holy spirit is just
like Jesus talk to him be friends with him he helps us to live
like Christ and gives us the power to do it.We are overcomers more
than conquerers through Christ who strengthens us.brentnz
Neville i was thinking there have been men that i respected in politics

I really feel for those who are
struggling with adultery and it seems the reoccuring question is the same.Will God forgive me if i have committed adultery and the answer is yes we all are sinners and we all have sinned no sin is worse
than the other to God.If you are feeling bad because for what you have done then it is the holy spirit drawing you to him repent and turn from your sin.God wants all of us to draw near to him to get our hearts right to stop making the same mistakes over and over again.If you feel weak he gives the strength to deal with it rather
than trying sort it out on our own.He forgives us because he loves us but we may have to bear the consequence of our sin
like David and his family suffered for his choices regarding his affair with bathsheba but God forgave him for his sin.
While I
struggled to make everyone happy with lists of what foods they

Jeremy have been asking the holy spirit for his help with this and in regards to the lame man that Jesus healed I do nt believe that sin was the issue for him just
like the blind man was it his parents or did he sin the answer was neither but so that God would be glorified.What was the sin that may have been worse for him.The two situations are related of the woman caught in adultery the key words being go and sin no more only two references in the bible and will explain later the lame man we see at first his dependency on everyone else for his needs he cant do it he is in the best position to receive Gods grace but what does he do with it.Does he follow Jesus no we are told he goes to the temple and Jesus finds him now that he has his strength to do things on his own what his response to follow the way of the pharisees that is what is worse
than his condition before so he is warned by go and sin no more.We get confused because we see the word sin but the giver of is speaking to him to go another way means death.Getting back to the two situations of the woman caught in adultery and the lame man here we see a picture of our hearts on the one our love for sin and on the other the desire to work out our salvation on our terms they are the two areas we have to submit to God.My experience was the self righteousness was the harder to deal with because it is linked in to our feelings of self worth and self confidence so we have to be broken so we are humble enough to realise that without God we can do nothing our flesh hates that so it is a
struggle at first to change our way of thinking.brentnz
Jeremy good message and quite relevant for today God is still looking at our hearts and motives for serving him or are we serving our own agenda as Jonah was.He did nt feel compassionate towards his enemies and who could blame him they had cruelly killed many Jews it was a question of life or death to his own people.The Jewish nation was no more deserving of Gods grace
than the other nations that is revealed by sending Jonah to preach a message of hope and life.Ultimately God calls all by faith in him and is willing to be merciful to all nations and peoples that do not not deserve it just
like us it is by grace that we all are forgiven.I am pleased that God is sovereign and knows whats best he is merciful to us.Our human nature is that it is better to kill our enemies before they can kill us and that is essentially Jonahs message that is why he
struggled to be obedient to Gods will.Gods message is to forgive those that trespass against us and show mercy.Its complicated and it is natural to protect ourselves and our families from those who would seek to destroy them but ultimately its about trusting God with everything easier said
than done.If it comes to a choice we will have to trust God and ask for his strength because we cant do it in ours.As Christ laid down his life for us are we ready to lay our lives and the lives of our families as a sacrifice for him.To me that is where the story of Jonah is leading to we have the choice to fight our enemies or to love them as God loves them.brentnz
I also was powerless in regard to my old nature it had power over me.i came to the point that i needed to do something because i felt
like spiritually i was dying and again it was by faith in Jesus Christ that changed me and that i admitted that i could nt live the christian life in my strength.Since then i have continued to walk by faith daily and i know what it means to be saved in this life we have power over our old nature through Christ that strengths us Personally i think this is a major reason why many christians are not growing and maturing as they should.Many people are
struggling in there faith that is not how it is meant to be the word says we are overcomers more
than conquerers through Christ that strengthens us.If you are
struggling are you walking by faith or just doing good christians works that have no power to change your life Just admit that you cant do it in your strength let him empower you by his holy spirit to do what you cant.It has been a hard road to get here but i am never going back to living by works when you find the truth there is no comparison brentnz

@RSH summerbreez never said OX is better
than Mahrez he's only truly clearly stating that the potential of Oxlade Chamberlain is equal to that of Mahrez if not better.Currently Mahrez is light years better

than a world class Mahrez.A lot of clubs would be after him if he develops
like how he should and we would
struggle to keep him.but the player I want to fulfill his potential above all is Jack Wilshere.He can be one of the legendary midfielders ever.But it's so sad.
