      Derrick Feinman Maybe that's the change you need to make. God is knocking at the door, open it and dine with him in everlasting life. The Lord is coming soon, and when he does the wicked will be judged and the righteous will live. I also need to make changes in my life to be right with God , saying that so I don't sound like a hypocrite

    I heard this for the first time in October, and, for obvious reasons, it really shook me. For reasons that aren't obvious, I had previously seen this story in a few random places in the days leading up to when I first saw the sermon.
    For the past few months, I have been contemplating this story. It still shakes me. This is my favorite sermon, and I'm glad I discovered it.

    I have a question, if someone could help that would be great !!!
    If I can find my sin and acknowledge it, then God would immediately touch me,Then why do I have to still struggle with a situation for long time ?
    Also after God changed me should I still consider myself as a sinner or blessed by God ? in other words do I have to confess daily even after God bless me ???

    • @aynom4661
      @aynom4661 7 лет назад +1

      Dear Supereagleeye555, I am sorry that my answer might not exactly help you but if it will I am just putting it here. No matter what for just thinking to find your sin and wanting to acknowledge, that means GOD is there with you. In spiritual life the first and the second steps you got them. the third step is confession. and confession is not only one time its all the time to come after because we human beings do not stop from sinning but as time goes by we make less and less. May GOD help us all to walk the spiritual journey together. GOD bless you and be with you at all time . May the prayer of our mother virgin Mary be with us.

    • @mi8088
      @mi8088 4 года назад

      God does forgive us if we confess our sins. Like it is written in the Bible.
      “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just, so that He may forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 Jn 1: 9)
      But us as human, it is our weak nature that makes us keep falling in sins. So, an example is when you wear your white clean shirts and you keep dirtying them, you will need to wash them again and again. Meanwhile you will eventually try to be more careful not to dirty them.
      Jesus washes away our sins through confession and communion.
      Whoever eats my body and drinks my blood dwells in me, and I am in him." (Jn 6:56)

He care for you , he loves you, he help , he will put your life in a right way. One thing that i wanna tell you is , believe that our god is forgive God, a love God. Believe that we will live after death , the god will come soon. We created to thank god not to do sin. Im so happy to tell you my experience that i got from my god. May my God help you all a time. The prayer of our mother mary , the prayer of his angels will be with you.

    Man God doesnt care. All he cares about is himself. As long as he is in a good atmosphere and everything is going as planned for him thats all he desires. But us we must suffer and not get the things that we want. Did I ask for this kind of life? It is just crazy. No sympathy or consideration at all. It is written in the bible that if you ask you will get. Thats the best lie i have ever heard. God doesnt give you if you ask. I have seen it with my life. When he feels like it he will which is 0.00001 percent of the time.

      Friend I understand you :) Life is hard, we have hardships and rough times, and sometimes we just want to give up. Praise God, pray, and truly understand. I know it's hard, and honestly I'm not the best Christian out there, and wont answer this in the way someone else would. The Lord is good. When you ask Him something IMPORTANT, you can't just ask once and expect it to come. Pray, pray and strengthen your relationship with the Lord. Ask for important things, things that you NEED over things that you want. I must say more but I feel I cannot, and it is something you will have to find yourself.
      Good luck brother, Im praying for you :)

    • @andymullins84

      My brother. I'm sorry you are hurting. I'm not a good sufferer. I'm going to complain. I hope things get better for you. I hope you find peace and joy. I pray it is not over for you and the best is still in front of you. I'm praying you can get a good taste of the sweetness of life. It is out there and I think that is reason why God made us anyway. To share in the sweetness of life. Like you can really be someone's sweetness in their day. Something you say or do for someone might be the best part of their day. Because you have suffered you will have a better sensitivity for the suffering of others. God bless. I know that you are awesome!

He created us in this sin no matter how hard you try you can nevwr get rid of it and blames us for falling in the sin. Just doesnr make sense. Did i ask for a million dollars or fancy house? i just want to be free from the sin of masturbatiion. Man curse that day i first saw pornograohy i wish i could,go back and slap myself before,i destroyed my whole life.
