Was an addict for years before and after accepting Jesus as my Savior. The shame and guilt was overwhelming. He took the habit away. So thankful.

I have been struggling with this very issue and I have been praying for the Lord to guide my life and bless me with spiritual peace and then this video shows up!
God truly hears us and blesses us. And thank you, I REALLY needed this video.

It's more about our natural hatred of sin as we grow in our faith rather then the ability to stop. Jesus didn't take away sin nature, he took the consequences of that sin nature and that makes us want to flee from it. His grace is insane and hard to grasp but I'm greatful.

If we were sinless, we would not have needed Jesus and the grace of God. No one is perfect, even David who was called "a man after God's heart." Although God is forgiving and longsuffering, he does not condone sin; and His grace is not a license to the acts thereof. But thank God for all that He has done.

This is so true and a great reminder that needs to be remembered daily. I used to smoke and I failed to quit for years. One day God delivered me from all my cravings when I gave up trying. You could say I was delivered from smoking by smoking.

I hate it when I sin, ok some may think they’re not big sins but sin is sin and what about those hidden sins, like greed, laziness? Jerry Bridges wrote a brilliant book about hidden sins no one sees like the the Lord. It’s called “Respectable Sins”. Brilliant and has helped me so much.

I needed this. I’ve really beat myself up instead of thanking My Lord my savior and my God for his Grace.❤

Joy in salvation; that’s the key right there

[jaywalker]

This Really clears up a lot of things 😊we are born sinners all we do is try to be like him 😭 but there's no shame in trying

[thirstresponder]

I agree that we are saved by grace alone through faith alone. Once the seed goes into the soil it will grow and eventually produce fruit. Galatians 5 is a good place to gain understanding. The warning is to not live a life practicing sin. A daily habit of sin will not go well. As I already stated, I believe the gospel. We cannot earn salvation. We cannot change in our own strength. But we need to understand that Jesus came to save us from the power of sin. If we focus only on one side of the coin, we may become legalistic. However, if we flip the coin we may fall into Hyper-Grace where we believe we can remain in our habitual sin. Trying to earn heaven will not get us there. Failing to daily deny our flesh may also have dire consequences.

What a great resource these videos from Got Questions Ministries are, thank you all so much

[RCooke]

Some people use this as an excuse to continue sinning willfully, like being abusive, cheating, fornicating, gay acts, etc. The bible says we must try to flee sin including sexual immorality and that we can't go to Heaven while being sexually immoral so I hope those watching understand that.

This is the fear and depression look I have been stuck in for nearly 10 months! Please pray that I can absorb these truths!

[Terrylb]

Just use your free will and choose not to sin, it’s that simple.

[AngelaVEdwards]

I love Got Questions. I have used you for years. I did not know you had a YouTube channel. You have a new subscriber.

[ebinrock]

Pray for me to be more kind like Jesus. I'm often still harsh at times with my family!

[reyzizr]

I need the joy of my salvation back. I am miserable and also old and tired. Honestly just want Jesus to come take us home. Im done here.

[PedroMaciel-nwdb]

Lord forgive me for the following sins:

Adultery
Look and watch bad stuff
Bad thoughts
Lazy
Phone all day
Led to sin
Excuses
Fear
Justify my sin
I have received the Eucharist but not in a state of grace

[gwapongrommel]

Thank you for this message of grace from our Lord. I don't know why my tears falling from my eyes while watching and listening to this message. 😭
