I agree with Dianne that Christ never leaves us. Guilt and shame can be one of two things: God's Spirit in you bringing conviction to your heart about the sin you are/were involved in, or God's Spirit is bringing conviction to draw you closer to Him, and to cause you to surrender your life to Him. I don't know if you've received Christ. Only you and the Lord know that.
The bible teaches that a person who's been born of God's Spirit can no longer sin (Habitually) because the Spirit in them prevents that from happening. 1 John Chapter 3 Verse 9 says, and I'll give it to you literally from the Greek text. It says "Whosoever has been born of God does not (practice) sin; for God's seed remains, or abides (Permanently) in him: and he cannot sin, that is, he does not have the capacity to sin because he has been born of God.
A person's considered a sinner because the spirit of the devil energizes them to fulfil the desires of their flesh. But once that person is born of the Spirit of God, they no longer have the capacity to continue to satisfy a lifestyle of sin. It's impossible for them to continue in sin. Paul explains it partly in Galatians 5:17 where he says, "For the flesh lusts against God's Spirit, and the Spirit is against the flesh."
That tells me is that I have this conflict going on. In my spirit, I'm saved. But my flesh is not redeemed and still has the same desires it had before I was saved. For believers, there's constant conflict between the flesh and the Spirit of Christ in them. If God's Spirit did not live inside of me, I'd be gone! And that's why God puts His Spirit in a believer's life.
It's more than just in our mind that we believe the truth about Jesus. When we are born of the Spirit of God, His Spirit comes into our life and makes sure that we remain His until He comes for us because our propensity is to go out and do whatever we want. That's why people don't surrender to Christ. It's because they can't do what they want to do anymore!
Something to consider sir Christ never leaves us we stop walking in him. you can always ask for forgiveness from the Heart I.E. mean it and get back in fellowship, and by the way God always knows if your honest about it or not. actions always are louder than words. Also He is more willing to foregive us than we are to forgive ourselves, 1 John 3:20 something to consider.
Paul and many Christians that i know once they accepted Jesus they never looked back, can someone like me who left the church and lived a life of sin come back to Jesus and be forgiven because there are times when guilt and shame overwhelm me and it is so hard to imagine God could forgive me since i knew better. Please be honest if you decicde to answer and if possible give me scriptures. Pray for me.

03-12-2021 / 1-901-574-3995 ? Why After Looking @ Isaiah 7:10-14 Prophesied 750 Before Christ Virgin Birth and Fulfillment Of ABBA'S Son Was Born; Choose To Not Use These Isaiah 7:10-15 This Scriptures In Matthew 1:22-23 ; Why Does The World Call Him Jesus from The Latin Version / Translation IESUS Was Used In The 1611 Bible Until 1629 & In 1630 Someone Change It To Jesus????
Revealed To From Our ABBA; J.E.S.U.S.= Jehovah s.e.n.t. Emmanuel 2 Save Us Sinners;
"J.E.H.O.V.A.H.= Jehovah, Emmanuel & Holy-Ghost, Verdict Against Humanity"
"Jehovah s.e.n.t. Emmanuel by Holy Ghost, Overshowed A Virgin named Mary 2 Atone Humanity" "Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. "
John 6:44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. "s,e,n,t,= Son / Saviour & Spirit 4 Emancipation 4 Eternal-Life N New Testament"
No comment? I don't think one is needed it says it all in the chapter. Paul and Timotheus the servants of Jesus Christ to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi with the bishops and deacons. Grace be unto you and peace from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
These are things that the Lord wants His believers to be involved in. Some are personal growth as a believer.

Matthew 25:
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye DID IT NOT to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
There's lots of groups that have outreaches. I helped another lady run the Benevolence ministry: distributing food and clothing to people in need. I loved it. Met many nice, but hurting people.
We do this as unto the Lord. It's like an offering of your time and love.
Choose what is agreeable you.
Here's some scriptures on personal growth. The hardest one to learn is patience, for me
Good question and I can understand why one would ask.
The answer is: NO!
No man(or woman) can or will ever be perfect. The Bible clearly teaches us that we all have sinned and have fallen short.
Striving to be perfect will bring anxiety and condemnation. We can't be perfect for it is literally impossible. We can't be Jesus, but we can strive to follow in his footsteps. When we slip we must confess it to Him and repent.
We must learn from our mistakes and strive to be better. Be the best version that we can be and improving when we see the opportunity.
Hello as being a save Christian, do we have to strive to be perfect, or are we already perfect according to the word of God, for the Word of God says be ye therefore perfect as your Father in Heaven is perfect?
Thank God for this word. It spoke to my heart when I saw this post. I know that our God is faithful. We as the body of Christ has to believe even when we are facing hard times.
Mishael on CULTS that say God is female on Philippians 1 - 3 years ago
I just did a quick Google on cults that teach that god is a woman. It comes from Europe. You can read this on Wikipedia.
Ariana Grande has a perverted painting promoting the same idea with a new CD.
That's what cults do. They promote some new outrageous thing in hopes of making some fast money on the suffering of others who are willing to buy into anything new.
I briefly saw that there's another one saying god is female and male.
I guess Satan thinks he can gather all the weak-minded fools to populate hell. He doesn't care who he hurts: he just hates God.
We have a responsibility to google these things and warn others.
Hi, I am so blessed to hear your son is now serving the Lord! My son is now in about the same situation. He was near death's door because of his past drug use and present drinking. I am praying God will be gracious to him one more time and he will repent and turn to the Lord. I believe the seed of faith was planted in him and this situation is the way the Lord will return my son to himself.
My Thought could be Gal 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
I just heard a voice holy spirit say read Philippians, so i gather the father is a sure-ing me he is cleaning me up to go home with God the father and our lord Jesus Christ in heaven. THANK YOU YAHSHUA.
As you can see not only was he in the garden of Eden, verse 15 he was perfect (good) until iniquity (sin) was found in him.
The tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the garden.

Answered Paul,
Your system showed it was incorrect, stating Paul and Timothy.
This is false.
Peter wrote the first sections of the New Testament, which results in one third.
After Paul wrote all remaining section, which amounts to two thirds.
There are No other writters.
From where is Your information base to claims otherwise?
