I hate it when people twist the words to try and make a point out of something that means nothing of what is being applied.... These same people are the reason for so many that will never truely find the meaning of being a christian.. Nor what the bible is truely telling us.. They dont even realize that they are playing right along with the devil and his scheme to keep many in the dark and away from the truth... When you are truely saved...you wont do the sins of the flesh, you will be a new creature washed white in the name of the father, son and holy ghost.. I pity all of you that have no foundation nor understanding of the parables of the great book... God save your souls before the end children...


wow that was condemning..... not convicting, but condemning....

Sounds like hormones, something that most every teenage man goes through.
It is natural to have these feelings, some have it stronger than others, but none the less it will lessen over time.

Might want to look for a new church, not sure if that is an option, or at least hint to the pastor you would like a youth minister.

It seems when I hang out with friends and go out with them.. it causes me to sin more.
And when Im crashing home.. everything seems spiritually healthier.

When I hang out with my girlfriend...
I lustfully think about her.. because shes gorgeous. And I'm also a horny teenager still.
When I'm with friends..
I curse, drink [ alot..], smoke and also lustfully think of the girls that are friends.
I stopped watching porn.. because I want to spiritually become stronger..
how a body builder works out everyday...
I stop watching porn everyday.. its so hard to sleep at night and every night.

I know I am the sinner, but it seems like society makes it alot harder for me....
even at church.. ever since our youth pastor left.. we have older pastors that don't really relate to us.. everyone during sermon look at their ipods.. and dose off.


I've hung out alone for a long time

i hang out with friends just like yours. just exactly like yours.
i get punched, threatened to get beat up all the time because i pass up smoking pot and getting drunk with them..
jesus spent most of his time among uncleanly people. it gives you the ultimate test. and now my friends realize that i am not the person i once was.
they respect my decisions and they adhear to my requests (most of the time)..
they understand that i live in the will of God. and they get really mad when i bring up things about it.
but its all about planting the seeds. if you can control yourself first, you can grasp and begin to plant seeds.
once you are able to live in temptation and resist it, others will admire your strength and strive to do the same.

keep going and be the example. i pray for you. if you ever need a word of advice on the matter, pm me!
ive been through exactly what you are going through. much love. and have a good night.

Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Galatians 5:19-21)


Oh, man, I was so close to heaven! That one thing ruined it for me. Lightning bolt, lightning bolt!

Easiest way to handle this
If you wouldn't bring Jesus along. Don't go

smoking marijuana isn't evil or immoral, but honoring your parents is respectable i guess


It is against the law and it is bad for your body.
So that kinda answers that question.
