Hmmmmm... people who reflect upon who they are, what they do, what the meaning of their life is, what sin means to them, their relationship to life and God as they understand God...

And then my fellow traveler...you. You jump on board, full of wisdom and knowledge from other dimensions and mock and curse those who would humble themselves to grow in the light and love...

Perhaps there is something you have read, which may not be couched in language that you prefer, nonetheless, has touched a very sore spot in need of letting go, forgiveness and healing?

The violence of your response bespeaks of a deep and abiding pain that has not been healed.

May you find your way back to your heart.

Re: Sin Management
IMAGINE!!!

What would this world be like, if the god posers never discovered this world, and never established this false hierarchial co.trol mechanism called relgion?

Of course, I can only imagine.

In the meantime, it is amusing watching people so caught up in this instilled paradigm.

Re: Sin Management
Salt,
It is not simply a choice to act on temptation, it is a choice to dishonor God. It is saying that God is not in control, I am, and even tho I know this is wrong, I am doing it anyway.

Wow - that really hit home...
I've often said, but what about God ?!
when I have been tempted to do what I know is wrong for me.

Today - I wanted to call my sister and let her know how badly I am feeling about myself. I couldn't do it, because ... I know that I am ashamed. I don't want her to know or feel my shame...

My next thought was, this is what sin is and does to you. Wants you to hide in your fears. I accepted that as truth and choose not to call her.

For that would take "responsibility"///
And I fear I have no ability to respond... even to myself.

Thank you for your TRUTH and your post.
Maybe tomorrow I will have the responsibility necessary to reach out and be honest with God and someone who loves me.

In earnest hope,
Tenstar

I tried to say this before but I think it was misconstrued.

Your sin is your own. Its yours. You cannot give it away by talking about it.

God forgives you of your sin. But it is still yours. You committed the sin, after all. It will always be there until you deal with it.

When people go off to live a hermits life, or take a vow of silence, or however else separate themselves from others, it is to deal with their sin.

In solitude, without human contact, even the smallest thing reminds us of the pain we inflicted on others. Solitude provides a life review without having to die.

After a time, that thing you did, that sin, becomes abhorrent. It causes a fundamental change. The sin ultimately affords one to grow in a positive way.

Re: Sin Management
Dear Slim Ex,
Solitude provides a life review without having to die.

That is what has been transpiring - though I feel like I am dying from that review.

Call it a review, call it awareness, call it what you will, - it has brought me to that place where I am confronted with errors of my thinking and behaving. Thinking that I am a mini God, and if I falter, because God is a merciful being - that I will be always forgiven.

Not so - for if I have the awareness of what is right and continue to live in that which is wrong... I am just trying to play more of the "sin management" cycle.

I cannot change myself. That is why I was so struck by the concept of Salt's posting. I must reach out and within to stop this cycle.

Re: Sin Management
Thanks for the thread Salt. I really needed to hear this message because I am always trying to control my sin often without even realizing it. And if I am not in the act of committing a sin my thoughts are not always aligned with God's will, so pretty much still sin. I struggle with letting go of the ideas of how I think I should be, what I should have and how I think this world and others should operate. I am continuously addicted to something other than Him when He is all I really need. He created me and can destroy me so why am letting other sources control me now? Fallen nature of course. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ I am forgiven. God bless.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 35450872


then you will stay trapped within your sin
 Quoting: Salt


But we are not all Christians; Christianity is just one branch of the tree. What is right for you may not be right for another.

“It's very simple. All you have to do is tell another person what is going on inside before it happens. The moment you do, at any point along the path, the cycle immediately comes to a screeching halt. It all stops. The power of sin is broken.”

This is called taking support and would make me weak. Why not make myself into the one who others come to for support.

And:

How can you tell another what is going on inside before it happens, because it has already happened? Sin is the effect of an action, not the action itself. You probably have no idea of what the action was.

I wrote this as I thought a contrasting view might be useful.

I do appreciate your efforts though and wish you well. It’s not easy for any of us whatever your chosen path.
