  • Unbeliever! SMOTE! lolz.

  • galatians 5 speaks about this subject. if one's not led by the Spirit he is still subject to his own sinful nature.. there's no third choice, no gray tones.

    but as Christ died and rose to a new life, so we are dead to sin and alive to God.

    God bless all

  • And freedom isn't the ability to do whatever you want - that's anarchy. Freedom is the ability to do what's right. Of course, "What' Right" is another endless topic with those that do not first accept that there is a God.

    Sorry for the many posts. It's just that I had to put it to atheists. That we're not insane. That the fruit of our faith is very tangible in our real lives. They can be so aggressive, dismissing us as ignorant, uneducated, brainwashed fanatics. When usually, they are such.

  • God never takes anything away without giving something much better in it's place. And it's not necessarily material. This is why true Christians are able to be happy and content in even the poorest, most difficult circumstances. Because their satisfaction in life isn't directly tied to material things, although they do enjoy them in a healthy context, when available. It's just that they are truly free.

  • But alone with himself, the man realizes that the void in his heart is still there - a gaping hole that only God can fill. And yet they've been lied to that if they come to God, then they will have to live this boring life of rules, restrictions, no fun, and only boring servitude to Him. At this point they don't realize that after He changes them, they will be set free from addiction to the old, "fun" sins. They will lose taste for them, and finally see them for the sad and shallow acts they are

  • Of course, many people do not hit rock bottom, and consider themselves to be good people. However they still have that void in their heart - a lack of satisfaction and true purpose in life. So they seek it in various forms of hobbies, activities, occupations and social life. While all those may be good descent things, they only temporarily appease a man, and actually become his little "idols" to which man devotes lots of time, finances, and efforts. The become a sort of purpose in his life.

  • This is why Jesus said: "come to me all you, that are weary and heavy burdened." Because only he sets FREE. Where some man says that he's free to practice sexual perversion, or get drunk, or do drugs, or whatever, he actually doesn't know that he's a slave to those things. Even if he goes to counseling, or rehab, or AA, and stops physically committing the acts, deep inside he will still want them, or miss the satisfaction they gave him. This man's life will still be unhappy and unfulfilled.

  • Hmm, funny. When a godless person hears something against sin, they get this defensive attitude: "If I like it, or I want it, I can do it, and I will do it. And you can't tell me otherwise, it's a free country!" As if they have the "right" to sin. When in reality, they have an OBLIGATION to sin. They can't NOT sin. But they think they are in control. And only when they start to hit rock bottom in their life, they realize that they need to change something, and then they realize that they can't!

  • Or in simpler terms - "change"! It's a change of heart. A spiritual rebirth that makes you free. This is where people misunderstand us alot. It's not some weird trance, or self induced, fake front. It's when you no longer have to try to do it on your own - trying to quit all the bad things in your life, that you know are making you miserable, and yet being hopelessly hooked on them. Sin. Sin makes a person miserable.

  • After that, it only stands to ask: "Who is this Intelligent Designer?" This is where His Word comes in. Where His creation wasn't intended to be proof, His Word actually is. How? Reading/hearing of His Word creates faith. And it's this faith that is the key instrument in discovering God, as it enables us to acquire "a sixth sense" if you will. No, I don't mean some ethereal, intuitive, mystical, wishy-washy concept. Rather it's a very tangible occurence. We call it being "Born Again".
