When you masturbate what do you imagine in your mind to be able to attain orgasm? I tell you masturbation is deadlier than sex.

[quote author=iliyande post=40280555]When we receive Christ as our Lord and Savior, we know He has conquered sin in our life. It is through His death that our sins have been cleansed and no longer to be remembered. Jesus’ life makes the difference. "Blessed are they whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him” (Romans 4:7- cool

.

Pride - quality or state of being proud – inordinate self esteem: “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall” (Proverbs 16:18).

Gluttony – excess in eating and drinking: “for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags” (Proverbs 23:21).

Greed - excessive or reprehensible acquisitiveness: “Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more” (Ephesians 4:19).

Laziness – @every body not going to church at all and in time

Sin consciousness is what your post is all about

Hebrews 10:3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.

Sin consciousness results to remember unto sin. I wonder why believer searches himself daily to see if He has wrong any body. That's being sin conscious.

Hebrews 10:4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: 10:6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

Everyday I see baby born again christains ask for forgiveness I have never sin in the entire new Testament where any of the disciples or apostles pray for forgiveness of sin. But see what Paul said

1 Timothy 1:14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 1:15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

Abstaining from those things by your carnal nature is not possible. Some of us baby christain believers still preach that people should forsake their sins then follow Jesus. Its wrong. If I can forsake my sins then, I don't need Jesus. Remember He came for the unrighteous which include every man created because no man is righteous. Abraham's righteousness was counted unto him because he believed God not base on works.

Romans 4:3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. 4:4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. 4:6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,

To conclude this my dear brother. BY NATURE... we are SINNERS, BUT BY FAITH we are RIGHTEOUS (SAINTS)
SHALOM!!!!!!!

when the mind is polluted against someone as imagining yourself having an affairs with somebody's wife or husband because you have lusted after her or him which is already a sin and still go ahead mastuubating having that person in mind, you have committed sin. Some things are not just right and we should also note that the Bible was written by humans like us.

The truth is that, when someone masturbates, he is simply having sex with himself. that is the same as Homosexualism.

Congrats! Mature Christian!

In other words, "do not forsake sin, Do not confess sin, Live carefree, commit adultery, fornication, basically suit yourself, it's all taken care of by Christ. Just have faith!"
I haven't heard a more heretical sermon than yours. Whatever happened to Titus 2:11-12, "For the grace of God which bringeth salvation hath appeared unto all men teaching us that denying ungodliness and worldly lusts we should live soberly, righteously and godly in this present world".
Check out the scriptures you twisted out of context. Read them sincerely and see if you honestly conveyed the true meaning of everyone of them. English isn't that hard to grasp.
If you want to live in sin, become an unbeliever and enjoy yourself, its not compulsory to bear the identity, Christian! The entire new testament repeatedly warns us against sin. Please check Eph 5:3-13 for more enlightenment . I know people like you are of the stock with ogly eyes looking for Sisters in Church to bed! Be careful, God is not mocked!

If you are in Christ Embassy, as I suspect, look for another Church that preaches truth and join. You won't make heaven following that crap you wrote on there for a doctrine! A word is enough for the Wise!

you are entitled to your opinion. Not a member of any church but I belong to the entire body of Christ. So you are now a Pharisee that look after men that chase women in the, I pity you, cos that's eye service. God knows those who diligently seek him...
Your choice of words speaks more of the type of Christian you are

Hebrews 5:12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. 5:13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

You need to understand righteousness.
I PRAY YOU COME TO UNDERSTAND THE TRUTH ABOUT THE GOSPEL THROUGH REVELATIONAL KNOW. SHALOM.....

SHALOM!!!!!!!

This is a gospel of convenience. Which is more reason why its hard to differentiate a believer from an unbeliever nowadays.
Should we continue in sin so that grace may abound?
The knowledge that the Lord Jesus paid the price doesnt give us the freedom to revel in sin.

Thanks Brother!!! Hebrews 10:8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law; 10:9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

The moment you confess Christ JESUS as your Lord you are saved once and for all. Unlike the old Testament where sins are only covered not cleaned through sacrifices and offerings.

Read the whole Hebrew you would understand that the sin that is unpleasing to God is UNBELIEF!!!!!
