I believe i have been save for many years but really didnt understand it or know the word. For 2 months now i have been hungry for it and i watched many many preachers and not many was i comfortable with because they just didnt feel real . Ive only found 2 i trust and they are Jesse and Andrew Farley. Thank you Jesse !
Crazy to think about isnt it? Christ had the same feelings, emotions, struggles and temptations that we do. And He beat it each and every time. Thank Christ that He did. Because i can't.
This was and still at times is me. I sometimes feel that i may not truly believe in christ if i continue to sin. I stopped smoking weed for 6 months thinking i was free from it. I have been smoking again. This is why i feel i am not a true follower. I know he died for me and He loves me unconditionally. But ther3 are times i question and that makes me so sad. I love Jesus he loves me. No man shall pluck me from his hand.
The assurance of your relationship to Christ is based on his promise of salvation to you when you first believed in Him, not on the absence of sin in your life. Sanctification is tough, growth is tough. All those who follow Christ sin; we don't have to, we're even free not to. But we do. It's a frustrating reality that will only be alleviated 100% when we are absent from the body and with the Lord. 1st John 1:9-2:2 is for believers and relates to what your going through. Also, which of the saints of old ever doubted their salvation because they sinned? I haven't found one yet. Come boldly to the throne of grace; you have a Savior who sympathizes with your weaknesses andd can help. Hebrews 2:17-18; 4:14-16
first of all, you must have the Holy Spirit living within you to be saved. The Holy Spirit is the seal of God, and your evidence you have been Born Again. the Holy Spirit is the key to overcoming sin. We cannot defeat it with our own willpower. The Holy Spirit brings you into a relationship with Jesus. He gives you the desire to love and serve God. He also gives you the desire to pray, and read the word. He is our helper and teacher here on earth. He helps us find our purpose in our walk with the Lord. Without Him, we will struggle, become discouraged, and eventually fall away. So be certain you have received Him, because we need to depend upon Him to make us more like Jesus everyday. When you sin, the Holy Spirit will convict your heart, and will lead you to repentance. The Holy Spirit will give you the power and strength to sin less and less. John 14:25-26 “These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
1 Corinthians 10:13 13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
When I get tempted or try not to sin, I remind myself that I can do anything through Christ and not by myself. This doesn't mean I'm 100% successful all the time because of my sinful nature of my flesh. I can pray and ask God for help. Philippians 4 13 I can do all things through Christ which strengthened me.
This is my struggle and one of the reasons I keep worrying am I really saved. I came to Christ and accpted Him 8 years ago I was at peace I knew I was forgiven and no longer wanted it or any sin. But temptation came and I fell back into it now im a real mess im depressed anxious and in a vicious cycle of sin and condemnation I cant seem to get back to that rest and real hate of not wanting it like I had at first. I also worry if im in the parable of the sower I trust and believe Christ died for me but I cant seem to rest in it like I did at first. And that brings the question did I ever really rest in it im just so confused all I want is to grow in Him really hate sin and walk with Him love Him all the right things. The thought I could be His enemy by default breaks my heart sorry for the lon message I just needed to tell someone my struggles and get it off my chest 😔
It is only through the Holy Spirit’s power that we can resist temptation and live victorious for Christ! The Holy Spirit’s power helps you resist temptation and live victorious for Christ! Being tempted is not a sin; it is normal! However, when we are tempted, there is a choice to be made: give in or to trust God. God tells us how to overcome temptation! First of all, trust God …temptation is normal! Secondly, trust God … the Holy Spirit will give us the ability to withstand temptation! Finally, trust God … He will give us a “way out”. As you mature in Christ and learn to depend on the Holy Spirit’s guidance, you will become more and more sensitive to the times temptation is before you. When you are tempted, don’t say, “The temptation is too strong,” and give in to it. If you are abiding in God, the Holy Spirit has promised to give you the power to withstand temptation. Ask for His help! the power of the Holy Spirit is able to lift you out and give you total victory. Choose to trust Him! Focus on your relationship with God, who He is, what He is doing in your life! Memorize scripture, ask God to fill you with the Holy Spirit’s wisdom, hold on to God’s faithfulness … the Holy Spirit will help you resist temptation! The Holy Spirit is the key. That is why the Lord sends His Holy Spirit to live inside every believer upon salvation. He is God's seal of salvation, and our evidence we have been saved. The 3rd person of the trinity. He is who helps us here on earth. You can talk to the Holy Spirit. Pray with the Holy Spirit. Fellowship with the Holy Spirit as you read the word. Ask the Holy Spirit to intercede for you in prayer. You will see a big difference in your walk with Jesus. The Holy Spirit wants to be invited. You are not alone if you possess Him. Depend on Him to help you overcome temptations. When they come to mind, capture them immediately, ask the Holy Spirit to remove the desire, in Jesus name, and it will flee. The longer you entertain it, the harder it will be to avoid. Before Jesus went up to heaven after his resurrection, He sent His Holy Spirit to His disciples, so that they could do the same things that He did on earth. We can do nothing without the Holy Spirit. If you are not certain, you have been changed and possess the Holy Spirit, then simply humble your heart and pray with faith, I repent of my sins, and I turn to You. You said in Your word that if we confess with our mouth the Lord Jesus,, and believe in our hearts that God raised Him from the dead, we shall be saved. I ask You Father to forgive me of all my sins, and ask You to fill me with the Holy Spirit, and take control of my life. Its not about the words, its about your heart. I left a quick video to guide you if necessary. He cares for you, and He has a special purpose for you. Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Will pray for you brother. God knows your heart. Be blessed. th-cam.com/video/qYFWsIvvZdc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xn0a6Upag66MFTt1
Jesus set me free... I said God, clearly this is a battle that I am not winning, take this from me in your time honor and glory in Jesus name! amen! and that night, I heard like a loud thought in my head " go and sin no more " and then in my ear a loud angry "NO" ... and the next morning, i had no desire to look at Porn ( i have slide back into Instagram, although this past week or so I haven't even done that ! ) When God speaks, everything listens! ( I was reading the Bible - Exodus ) which is a rather dry read, being that I am not one for reading. I can read, but I prefer to watch or listen - in any case I was reading Exodus , and in my head was this autonomous thought that was essentially mocking/ annoying me because of what I was reading - saying like " isnt this so boring/ isnt this like watching paint dry / blah blah blah blah blah " things exactly like that. And then in my head this loud thought said " ENOUGH! " and everything went silent! I had no thoughts at all, which is weird because usually I have stuff going on up there! my mind was like a clam lake!
I've trusted the gospel since I was five years old, so pretty much every sin I can ever remember committing has been as a saved person. 43 years later, all the same desires of the flesh are still there. News flash! You are supposed to lust for a woman, it's just supposed to be for one woman. The other side of the equation that any of these pastors will never preach about is the woman living up to her end of the deal in a marriage. Because they know that the moment they offend the feminists, their sanctuary will be empty.
Hey, great video. I believe OSAS is true but I’m confused if revelation 22:19 contradicts it. I’d appreciate it if you replied with an explanation or even make a video on it
yes, Christians can lose their salvation. If they are living in habitual willful sin, even after they have accepted Jesus as their Savior, and they do not repent before they die. Because those sins are not covered, they can go to hell. If they repent, and ask for forgiveness, then God will restore them back into the family of God. Just because you are born again, does not mean you automatically get a free pass to live anyway you want as a Christian.
@@Outsider4JC I know you had good intentions when sending this, but it will cause many to believe a false gospel. No a believer cannot lose their salvation, we’re sealed with the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption the moment we believe the gospel. (Ephesians 1:13-14). And NOBODY(including ourselves) can take gods children from his hand. (John 10:28-29) “Repenting from sin” is a work of the law. (Jonah 3:10)And as we know you can’t mix works with grace. (Romans 11:6) Saying that only “habitual willful sin” can send a believer to hell diminishes the seriousness of ALL sin. (James 2:10) Plus all sin we do is willfully done. We choose to sin, whether in thought or action. While god won’t send a believer to hell for sin, he will chasten them in this life. (Hebrews 12:6) I can’t make you believe this but I can point you to the truth. Trust in Christ alone. (John 3:16)
@@FloridaMark1611 they cant lose their salvation if they repent in time. but if they were to die in that state, they could be in danger of being separated from God. I am proof of that, because I was born again, then walked away from the faith for over ten years. I was living in sin, and ignored the Holy Spirits conviction. I knew that if I were to die at that moment, I would not have made it to heaven. But when I finally reached my lowest point, I surrendered my life back to God, and the Holy Spirit restored my faith instantly. And yes, I was truly born again before I walked away.
@@FloridaMark1611 You cannot place your salvation somewhere and forget where you placed it. Your salvation is in Christ. You always know where it is. But the truth is that you can walk away from your salvation. Your salvation is in Christ. If you walk away from Christ, then you walk away from your salvation. Whether the hardening of our heart comes through difficulties, persecution, the cares of this world, or a naturalism based intellectual pursuit (Heb 3:12-15; Mt 13:18-23; 1 Cor 1:18-25), we can decide to walk away from our salvation that is found in Christ. We can abandon our Christ for something else (Gal 1:6; 1 Tim 4:1). We can trample upon the sacrifice of Christ and insult God’s Spirit (Heb 10:29). We can decide that the perseverance it takes to be a Christ follower requires too much and stop following him (Jn 6:60-66; 8:30-31; Col 1:23; 1 Tim 4:16; 2 Pt 1:8-11).
I haven't watched an adult video in 4 months thanks to King Jesus Christ. However, I have many thoughts about sex though I try not to and pray about it. I also really want to watch but our Lord as help me, although I have been having wet dreams as a 34-year-old man, but I understand that is not sinful because I have no control of that. I think what makes it most difficult is that no female wants to even give me a chance and it hurts knowing that I might never get to enjoy that particular gift God gave us that is really enjoyable.
I'm so evil. I have not hated my sin. I need a new heart and whenever I try to look to Christ I feel even more condemned because I've loved the things that put him on the cross. I'm not worthy of His sacrifice. If you see this, I don't deserve prayer, but if you feel led to pray that God will cleanse my wicked heart. And of course I am going to take the steps to move away from sin.
Ezechiel 36:26: A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. Romans 5:8: But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 1 John 2:12: I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake. Hope it helps :)

You need to take into account that it's the Holy Spirit that gives you the power and strength to overcome temptations. With the Holy Spirit living in you, you should no longer be a slave to porn anymore. So you need to keep in mind that some people may not be truly born again, and are trying to overcome it through their own willpower, and that will never work. So unless you possess the Holy Spirit, you will never find victory over it.
Pastor Jessie. I am in a tie. Better said on a fence. I stand at the possibility of either spending eternity in heaven, or eternity in hell. I am seeking the truth. But I find myself in particular circumstances that are nulling my ability to come to Jesus. I need your help. If you are busy i understand, but I am scared that my direction is hell. Kind regards, seb.
Hey there! You can know right now, in this moment, that you have eternal life. You need only simply believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who died to pay for all of your sin. His resurrection proves it, and the moment you believe in Him, you receive eternal life. John 3:15-18, 5:24 and 6:37-40 help to make it plain. See also Romans 3:24-28. Salvation is a free gift to anyone who simply believes in Christ. - Trent
@@BibleLine doesnt it say that even the devil believes. I think it takes more than just belief. You must repent and put your full trust and faith in Christ. And you must have the Holy Spirit. Many people profess to be Christians, but they dont possess the Holy Spirit. I believed in Jesus my whole life, but it wasnt until I turned 22 that I truly became a Holy Spirit-filled born again believer. So simply saying you believe in Jesus means nothing, until you show the fruit of the Spirit in your life. Thats the evidence
You receive the spirit by faith - Eph. 1:12-14. Also see John 3:1-18. We are his children and the Spirit testifies with our spirit to that fact. It’s all by faith in Him - Gal. 3:26, Romans 8. - Trent
We don’t believe in that view. I cannot recall the reference, but I believe Jesse was referring to how other people believe that. He was definitely saved when writing that. - Trent
How To KNOW You Are Going To Heaven After The 1st Death: ❤️🔥 1 John 5:13 KJV These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. Romans 1:16-17 KJV For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. (Anyone who believes). 2 Corinthians 11:3 KJV But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 1 John 3:19-24 KJV And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him. For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. All have, currently and will continue to sin in this flesh, it is impossible for any man on the earth to stop sinning, we need a saviour, Jesus Paid for my sins, just read the Word of God. KNOW YOU ARE SAVED TODAY ❤
@@fabionpettigrew8249 Don't be ashamed to go to God with a humble mind and admit to God you don't know the future and you're entirely dependent on His mercy and guidance. God is not unreasonable. Just remember for your own sake and acknowledge that if it weren't for Jesus we'd have no hope or forgiveness. Jesus died for us while we were yet in our sins. Jesus paid it all, past, present, future sins. Remember that Jesus loves you and God the Father loves you as well and you have the Holy Spirit right there with you helping you pray. God saw us in our desperate state and sent us His only begotten Son to die in our place for our sins. God isn't seeking to destroy you. Psalms 143:1 A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness. Psalms 143:2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified. Psalms 130:2 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications. Psalms 130:3 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? Psalms 130:4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Colossians 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Psalms 100:5 For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations. Ephesians 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
@@fabionpettigrew8249 Heb 12 5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: 6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. 7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? 8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. 9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? 10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. 11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. There is s difference between punishment (in the Biblical sense which entails righteous judgment) and chastening. The third definition of chastening bears this out (although all of them are accurate to some degree, except "punish"): chasten: "To rid of excess; refine or purify." punish: "1) To subject to a penalty for an offense, sin, or fault. 2) To inflict a penalty for (an offense). 3) To handle or use roughly; damage or hurt." NONE of those definitions of punishment apply to how God deals with His children. So the question is "why does got chasten"? I think you know the answer. It is in the third definition and in Hebrews 12: "for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness". This is revealed in Mark. Jesus is angry at the pharisees, but why? He's angry because they hardened their hearts! It grieved Him! God doesn't want His children to have hard hearts. He wants the BEST for you! He wants to REWARD you! He wants to BLESS you! He LOVES YOU! Mark 3:5 And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other. I love how Paul puts it in Romans 5: 10For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. 11And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. Think about it. If He loved you that much while your were His ENEMY, how much more now that you are reconciled, should you have joy in His love, now that you are called A SON? Now THAT is LOVE! Just remember. A good father does not enjoy punishing his children, but a good father will discipline his children. Why? Because he is a good father! So, if you aren't being chastised, does that mean you aren't a son? NO! For God is long-suffering! Does it mean you should go on sinning? God forbid! He will discipline His children. Do not use grace as an occasion for the flesh. But DO NOT doubt His promises! You should try to do better. But not to be saved, but because you ARE saved if you believe! Finally, as far as the oath goes, look to the story of Jephthah in Judges 11: 30Jephthah made this vow to the LORD: “If indeed You will deliver the Ammonites into my hand, 31then whatever comes out the door of my house to greet me on my triumphant return from the Ammonites will belong to the LORD, and I will offer it up as a burnt offering.” 32So Jephthah crossed over to the Ammonites to fight against them, and the LORD delivered them into his hand. 33With a great blow he devastated twenty cities from Aroer to the vicinity of Minnith, as far as Abel-keramim. So the Ammonites were subdued before the Israelites. 34And when Jephthah returned home to Mizpah, there was his daughter coming out to meet him with tambourines and dancing! She was his only child; he had no son or daughter besides her. 35As soon as Jephthah saw her, he tore his clothes and said, “No! Not my daughter! You have brought me to my knees! You have brought great misery upon me, for I have given my word to the LORD and cannot take it back.” A vow to The Lord is only as binding as it is according to God's will. Did God want Jephthah to keep this vow? I don't think so. Jeremiah 19:5 They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind: Point is, you cannot promise to stop sinning. 1 John 1:10 basically assures us of that. So ask for forgiveness for breaking your covenant with The Lord, and instead do what Jesus said: Let your yes be yes and your no be no! God bless you dear brother. Do not let the Enemy bring you into condemnation. You have passed from death to life. Rest in the love of Jesus today and make Him proud! Ask for love. For in perfect love there is no fear. Perfect love casts out fear. Rejoice! Let the joy of the Lord be your strength! Rejoice!
@fabionpettigrew8249 First of all, God has not given us a spirit of fear brother. Do not despair! But let's take a look at what chastisement means, first! Heb 12 5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: 6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. 7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? 8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. 9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? 10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. 11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

Under our apostle Paul’s ministry,to be SAVED, you must BELIEVE/TRUST The Gospel of Jesus Christ,1 st Corinthians Chapter 15 verses 1-4.Jesus Christ died on the cross for all of your sins,was buried,and rose again on the third day.Jesus Christ’s Shed Blood is what saves you when you Believe this plan of salvation with your heart.Romans 3:25” Faith in His Blood”.
Some people say that you can believe in Jesus as “Savior” but not as “Lord.” That is, you can believe in him but never repent of your sin. You can believe in him and be saved even if your life goes on just as it was before you became a Christian. Or so the claim goes. Some people even claim that if we say repentance is necessary for salvation we’re adding works to the gospel. They claim that if repentance is required then we’re no longer saved by God’s grace alone, but by what we do as well. But what does the Scripture say? Jesus says, “I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance” (Luke 5:32) Jesus told his disciples to proclaim “repentance and forgiveness of sins” in his name to all the nations (Luke 24:47). When the apostles preached in Acts, they called people to repent of their sins in order to be forgiven (See Acts 2:38, 3:19, 8:32, 17:30, 20:21, 26:20). The apostle Paul makes it clear that those whose lives are characterized by sin “will not inherit the kingdom of God” (1 Cor. 6:9-10; see also Rom. 8:12-13, Gal. 5:21, Eph. 5:5). According to the unanimous testimony of Scripture, repentance is absolutely necessary in order to be saved. Only those who turn from their sin, trust in Christ, and live lives that are characterized by righteousness will be saved on the last day. But then is repentance a “work” we must perform in order to earn our salvation? Not at all! Repentance and faith are really two sides of the same coin. Repentance is a change of mind.. Faith is turning to, trusting in, and relying on Christ. Repentance is not a “work” anymore than faith is: we simply renounce our sin and rely on Christ. Since the Bible makes it clear that we must repent in order to be saved, what will happen to those who do not repent? Jesus said, “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3). Before one repents, there is no concern, regret or determination at all to do anything about one’s sins. Such will cause one to “perish,” if he does not turn. The Bible says that true “repentance leads to life” (Acts 11:18). One is not granted a new life in Christ at the moment of repentance, for there is more that he must do based upon his turn from sin. But one is on the path to be granted a life from free sin when he makes up his mind to repent. God's Word tells us plainly that “the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23) and Jesus said, “unless you repent, you too will all perish” (Luke 13:3). On the contrary, repentance leads to life (Acts 11:18) and salvation (2 Corinthians 7:10). Ultimately, when we repent, we are inviting Jesus to have fellowship with us. And when you repent and put your faith and trust in Jesus, He sends His Holy Spirit to live on the inside of you. He is God's seal of salvation. The Holy Spirit works on our consciences, convicting us of sin and righteousness, moving us to repent (John 16:7-8). He transforms us by the renewing of our minds according to the Word of God (Rom. 12:1-2). The Holy Spirit is the key. You must have Him to be saved. Do some research, you will understand. Pray about it. Be blessed
The Bible says that some will abondon the faith. Paul says that he needs to run the race so that he himself is not disqualified. The Bible says that we should not quench the spirit. The bible says to present yourself as a living sacrifice, it is your reasonable service. The Bible says "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries." I struggled with alcohol. I was born again in 2011. I stayed sober for a while. However, I thought that since I was born again, I would be able to drink and not fall into drunkenness. I stayed drunk for the next 12 years until I finally was rushed to the hospital because my liver went out. God saved me. I am sober again. Now I know that alcohol can master me. Now I know that SALVATION did not cancel out my FREE WILL. Now I understand that you CAN abandon your faith. This is what I did. I still believed in Jesus, but I was calling Him Lord without doing what He said. Luckily, if you are fallen into sin, and are in danger of damnation (which the Bible CLEARLY TEACHES in the verses that I quoted above) you can still come back. But, hopefully you wont be chastened as hard as I was, and hopelly you will not sear your conscience so bad with willful sin that you no longer truly believe, and become one of the christians that "fall away". Unbelievers can not fall away. You are not saved by works - you cannot lose your salvation like you would lose a set of car keys, but you can abandon your faith, and there are so many warnings about that in the bible that if anyone REALLY wanted to know the truth about whether or not you can use your free will to trample the blood of Christ and walk away, you can find it in the bible. Start here. Try and refute all of these in context and maybe your eyes will be open, like mine were: Corinthians 9:24-27, Hebrews 10:26-31, Mark 4:13-20, Hebrews 3:12-19, Galatians 5:4-7, Romans 11:18-23, James 5:19-20, Colossians 1:21-23, Matthew 7:21-23, Hebrews 10:35-39, 1 Timothy 4:1, Revelation 2:4-5, Acts 14:22, John 15:1-4, Hebrews 12:14-17, 2 Peter 1:3, Matthew 10:22, Matthew 25:1-13, Luke 12:46-48, Luke 21:34-36, 2 Peter 1:10-11, 2 Peter 3:14-17, 1 Timothy 1:18-19, Matthew 5:13, Acts 11:23, Galatians 4:9-11, 1 Thessalonians 3:4-5, Hebrews 2:1-3, Revelation 2:13, Revelation 2:16-17, Matthew 13:18-23, Luke 8:11-15, Luke 14:34-35, Matthew 3:10, Luke 3:9, Matthew 24:4-13, Mark 9:43-50, Luke 13:6-9, John 8:31-32, Romans 8:12-17, Hebrews 6:11-12, Hebrews 10:22-24, Galatians 6:7-9, Philippians 3:17-4:1, 1 Peter 1:6-9, 2 Peter 2:1-3, 1 Timothy 6:10, 2 Timothy 2:22-26, 1 John 2:24, Revelation 2:25-29, Revelation 3:10-11, Revelation 3:12-13, Revelation 3:21-22.
You can abandon your faith, not your salvation. If a person ever received the gospel of grace, they were at the very moment of faith in Christ "translated" into the kingdom (Col. 1:12-14). This is because God never saved the body of flesh. Only the spirit is born of God, not the physical person. The flesh "profitteth nothing" from our being "born of the Spirit". That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. John 3:6 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. John 6:63
This is why Jesus gave the apostles (first bishops) the power to forgive sins, which we are taught in 1 John 5:17 that some sin is mortal sin... Jesus also gave the apostles "The Same Authority" that the Father gave Jesus.... Which means that the apostles passed on their authority to their successors, because they were given the authority to do so. Go to confession, confess lusting over porn as often as you do it. Remember Jesus tells us, wherever 2 or more are gathered in His name, He is there in their midst... and that's exactly what Confession is, Jesus there, forgiving your sins, through the priest.

Thank you for true biblical teaching. I rebuke any false teachers from this community in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Free Grace allows us to serve God without condemnation!!! Rather, it’s God’s grace and His grace is free!
I believe i have been save for many years but really didnt understand it or know the word. For 2 months now i have been hungry for it and i watched many many preachers and not many was i comfortable with because they just didnt feel real . Ive only found 2 i trust and they are Jesse and Andrew Farley. Thank you Jesse !
Man you really do speak a lot of truth bro I am so glad I found y'all's channel please keep up the fantastic work God bless y'all.
We are saved by grace through faith, like a little child trusts in his parents without giving it any thought about being taken care of.
Crazy to think about isnt it?
Christ had the same feelings, emotions, struggles and temptations that we do.
And He beat it each and every time.
Thank Christ that He did. Because i can't.
This was and still at times is me. I sometimes feel that i may not truly believe in christ if i continue to sin. I stopped smoking weed for 6 months thinking i was free from it. I have been smoking again. This is why i feel i am not a true follower. I know he died for me and He loves me unconditionally. But ther3 are times i question and that makes me so sad. I love Jesus he loves me. No man shall pluck me from his hand.
The assurance of your relationship to Christ is based on his promise of salvation to you when you first believed in Him, not on the absence of sin in your life. Sanctification is tough, growth is tough. All those who follow Christ sin; we don't have to, we're even free not to. But we do. It's a frustrating reality that will only be alleviated 100% when we are absent from the body and with the Lord. 1st John 1:9-2:2 is for believers and relates to what your going through. Also, which of the saints of old ever doubted their salvation because they sinned? I haven't found one yet. Come boldly to the throne of grace; you have a Savior who sympathizes with your weaknesses andd can help. Hebrews 2:17-18; 4:14-16
@joelthompson7064
Amen. Beautifully said. Thank You Lord Jesus for saving us. Blessed be Your Holy Name.
Praise Jesus. God bless you for that beautiful response.
Amen 🙏 And the Accuser is The devil don’t listen to him and rest in Christ and His Promises ❤
first of all, you must have the Holy Spirit living within you to be saved. The Holy Spirit is the seal of God, and your evidence you have been Born Again. the Holy Spirit is the key to overcoming sin. We cannot defeat it with our own willpower. The Holy Spirit brings you into a relationship with Jesus. He gives you the desire to love and serve God. He also gives you the desire to pray, and read the word. He is our helper and teacher here on earth. He helps us find our purpose in our walk with the Lord. Without Him, we will struggle, become discouraged, and eventually fall away. So be certain you have received Him, because we need to depend upon Him to make us more like Jesus everyday. When you sin, the Holy Spirit will convict your heart, and will lead you to repentance. The Holy Spirit will give you the power and strength to sin less and less. John 14:25-26
“These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
Amen thank you Pastor Jesse ❤
Amen! Great video, and your comments about Steven Anderson were spot on!
1 Corinthians 10:13 13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
When I get tempted or try not to sin, I remind myself that I can do anything through Christ and not by myself. This doesn't mean I'm 100% successful all the time because of my sinful nature of my flesh. I can pray and ask God for help.
Philippians 4
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengthened me.
100% empathetic.True and Amen
This is my struggle and one of the reasons I keep worrying am I really saved. I came to Christ and accpted Him 8 years ago I was at peace I knew I was forgiven and no longer wanted it or any sin. But temptation came and I fell back into it now im a real mess im depressed anxious and in a vicious cycle of sin and condemnation I cant seem to get back to that rest and real hate of not wanting it like I had at first.
I also worry if im in the parable of the sower I trust and believe Christ died for me but I cant seem to rest in it like I did at first. And that brings the question did I ever really rest in it im just so confused all I want is to grow in Him really hate sin and walk with Him love Him all the right things. The thought I could be His enemy by default breaks my heart sorry for the lon message I just needed to tell someone my struggles and get it off my chest 😔
It is only through the Holy Spirit’s power that we can resist temptation and live victorious for Christ! The Holy Spirit’s power helps you resist temptation and live victorious for Christ! Being tempted is not a sin; it is normal! However, when we are tempted, there is a choice to be made: give in or to trust God. God tells us how to overcome temptation! First of all, trust God …temptation is normal! Secondly, trust God … the Holy Spirit will give us the ability to withstand temptation! Finally, trust God … He will give us a “way out”. As you mature in Christ and learn to depend on the Holy Spirit’s guidance, you will become more and more sensitive to the times temptation is before you. When you are tempted, don’t say, “The temptation is too strong,” and give in to it. If you are abiding in God, the Holy Spirit has promised to give you the power to withstand temptation. Ask for His help! the power of the Holy Spirit is able to lift you out and give you total victory. Choose to trust Him! Focus on your relationship with God, who He is, what He is doing in your life! Memorize scripture, ask God to fill you with the Holy Spirit’s wisdom, hold on to God’s faithfulness … the Holy Spirit will help you resist temptation! The Holy Spirit is the key. That is why the Lord sends His Holy Spirit to live inside every believer upon salvation. He is God's seal of salvation, and our evidence we have been saved. The 3rd person of the trinity. He is who helps us here on earth. You can talk to the Holy Spirit. Pray with the Holy Spirit. Fellowship with the Holy Spirit as you read the word. Ask the Holy Spirit to intercede for you in prayer. You will see a big difference in your walk with Jesus. The Holy Spirit wants to be invited. You are not alone if you possess Him. Depend on Him to help you overcome temptations. When they come to mind, capture them immediately, ask the Holy Spirit to remove the desire, in Jesus name, and it will flee. The longer you entertain it, the harder it will be to avoid. Before Jesus went up to heaven after his resurrection, He sent His Holy Spirit to His disciples, so that they could do the same things that He did on earth. We can do nothing without the Holy Spirit. If you are not certain, you have been changed and possess the Holy Spirit, then simply humble your heart and pray with faith, I repent of my sins, and I turn to You. You said in Your word that if we confess with our mouth the Lord Jesus,, and believe in our hearts that God raised Him from the dead, we shall be saved. I ask You Father to forgive me of all my sins, and ask You to fill me with the Holy Spirit, and take control of my life. Its not about the words, its about your heart. I left a quick video to guide you if necessary. He cares for you, and He has a special purpose for you. Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Will pray for you brother. God knows your heart. Be blessed. th-cam.com/video/qYFWsIvvZdc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xn0a6Upag66MFTt1
Jesus set me free... I said God, clearly this is a battle that I am not winning, take this from me in your time honor and glory in Jesus name! amen!
and that night, I heard like a loud thought in my head " go and sin no more " and then in my ear a loud angry "NO" ... and the next morning, i had no desire to look at Porn ( i have slide back into Instagram, although this past week or so I haven't even done that ! ) When God speaks, everything listens! ( I was reading the Bible - Exodus ) which is a rather dry read, being that I am not one for reading. I can read, but I prefer to watch or listen - in any case I was reading Exodus , and in my head was this autonomous thought that was essentially mocking/ annoying me because of what I was reading - saying like " isnt this so boring/ isnt this like watching paint dry / blah blah blah blah blah " things exactly like that. And then in my head this loud thought said " ENOUGH! " and everything went silent! I had no thoughts at all, which is weird because usually I have stuff going on up there! my mind was like a clam lake!
I've trusted the gospel since I was five years old, so pretty much every sin I can ever remember committing has been as a saved person. 43 years later, all the same desires of the flesh are still there.
News flash! You are supposed to lust for a woman, it's just supposed to be for one woman.
The other side of the equation that any of these pastors will never preach about is the woman living up to her end of the deal in a marriage. Because they know that the moment they offend the feminists, their sanctuary will be empty.
Hey, great video. I believe OSAS is true but I’m confused if revelation 22:19 contradicts it. I’d appreciate it if you replied with an explanation or even make a video on it
yes, Christians can lose their salvation. If they are living in habitual willful sin, even after they have accepted Jesus as their Savior, and they do not repent before they die. Because those sins are not covered, they can go to hell. If they repent, and ask for forgiveness, then God will restore them back into the family of God. Just because you are born again, does not mean you automatically get a free pass to live anyway you want as a Christian.
@@Outsider4JC I know you had good intentions when sending this, but it will cause many to believe a false gospel.
No a believer cannot lose their salvation, we’re sealed with the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption the moment we believe the gospel. (Ephesians 1:13-14). And NOBODY(including ourselves) can take gods children from his hand. (John 10:28-29)
“Repenting from sin” is a work of the law. (Jonah 3:10)And as we know you can’t mix works with grace. (Romans 11:6)
Saying that only “habitual willful sin” can send a believer to hell diminishes the seriousness of ALL sin. (James 2:10) Plus all sin we do is willfully done. We choose to sin, whether in thought or action. While god won’t send a believer to hell for sin, he will chasten them in this life. (Hebrews 12:6)
I can’t make you believe this but I can point you to the truth. Trust in Christ alone. (John 3:16)
@@FloridaMark1611 they cant lose their salvation if they repent in time. but if they were to die in that state, they could be in danger of being separated from God. I am proof of that, because I was born again, then walked away from the faith for over ten years. I was living in sin, and ignored the Holy Spirits conviction. I knew that if I were to die at that moment, I would not have made it to heaven. But when I finally reached my lowest point, I surrendered my life back to God, and the Holy Spirit restored my faith instantly. And yes, I was truly born again before I walked away.
@@FloridaMark1611 You cannot place your salvation somewhere and forget where you placed it. Your salvation is in Christ. You always know where it is.
But the truth is that you can walk away from your salvation. Your salvation is in Christ. If you walk away from Christ, then you walk away from your salvation.
Whether the hardening of our heart comes through difficulties, persecution, the cares of this world, or a naturalism based intellectual pursuit (Heb 3:12-15; Mt 13:18-23; 1 Cor 1:18-25), we can decide to walk away from our salvation that is found in Christ.
We can abandon our Christ for something else (Gal 1:6; 1 Tim 4:1). We can trample upon the sacrifice of Christ and insult God’s Spirit (Heb 10:29). We can decide that the perseverance it takes to be a Christ follower requires too much and stop following him (Jn 6:60-66; 8:30-31; Col 1:23; 1 Tim 4:16; 2 Pt 1:8-11).
I haven't watched an adult video in 4 months thanks to King Jesus Christ. However, I have many thoughts about sex though I try not to and pray about it. I also really want to watch but our Lord as help me, although I have been having wet dreams as a 34-year-old man, but I understand that is not sinful because I have no control of that. I think what makes it most difficult is that no female wants to even give me a chance and it hurts knowing that I might never get to enjoy that particular gift God gave us that is really enjoyable.
I'm so evil. I have not hated my sin. I need a new heart and whenever I try to look to Christ I feel even more condemned because I've loved the things that put him on the cross. I'm not worthy of His sacrifice. If you see this, I don't deserve prayer, but if you feel led to pray that God will cleanse my wicked heart. And of course I am going to take the steps to move away from sin.
Ezechiel 36:26: A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
Romans 5:8: But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
1 John 2:12: I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
Hope it helps :)

You need to take into account that it's the Holy Spirit that gives you the power and strength to overcome temptations. With the Holy Spirit living in you, you should no longer be a slave to porn anymore. So you need to keep in mind that some people may not be truly born again, and are trying to overcome it through their own willpower, and that will never work. So unless you possess the Holy Spirit, you will never find victory over it.
Pastor Jessie. I am in a tie. Better said on a fence. I stand at the possibility of either spending eternity in heaven, or eternity in hell. I am seeking the truth. But I find myself in particular circumstances that are nulling my ability to come to Jesus. I need your help. If you are busy i understand, but I am scared that my direction is hell. Kind regards, seb.
Hey there!
You can know right now, in this moment, that you have eternal life.
You need only simply believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who died to pay for all of your sin. His resurrection proves it, and the moment you believe in Him, you receive eternal life.
John 3:15-18, 5:24 and 6:37-40 help to make it plain. See also Romans 3:24-28. Salvation is a free gift to anyone who simply believes in Christ.
- Trent
@@BibleLine doesnt it say that even the devil believes. I think it takes more than just belief. You must repent and put your full trust and faith in Christ. And you must have the Holy Spirit. Many people profess to be Christians, but they dont possess the Holy Spirit. I believed in Jesus my whole life, but it wasnt until I turned 22 that I truly became a Holy Spirit-filled born again believer. So simply saying you believe in Jesus means nothing, until you show the fruit of the Spirit in your life. Thats the evidence
You receive the spirit by faith - Eph. 1:12-14. Also see John 3:1-18. We are his children and the Spirit testifies with our spirit to that fact. It’s all by faith in Him - Gal. 3:26, Romans 8.
- Trent
Amen 🙏
How do you defend that view that Paul wasn't saved in Romans 7?
We don’t believe in that view. I cannot recall the reference, but I believe Jesse was referring to how other people believe that. He was definitely saved when writing that.

I made a vow to God that I would never watch pron again and I didn’t for a couple of months but I feel back into it what do I do

1 John 5:13 KJV
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Romans 1:16-17 KJV
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. (Anyone who believes).
2 Corinthians 11:3 KJV
But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
1 John 3:19-24 KJV
And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him. For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
All have, currently and will continue to sin in this flesh, it is impossible for any man on the earth to stop sinning, we need a saviour, Jesus Paid for my sins, just read the Word of God. KNOW YOU ARE SAVED TODAY ❤
@@LookinUp_ I will but I feel like after I promised God not to do that again he’s not gonna forgive me until he punishes me
@@fabionpettigrew8249 Don't be ashamed to go to God with a humble mind and admit to God you don't know the future and you're entirely dependent on His mercy and guidance. God is not unreasonable. Just remember for your own sake and acknowledge that if it weren't for Jesus we'd have no hope or forgiveness. Jesus died for us while we were yet in our sins. Jesus paid it all, past, present, future sins. Remember that Jesus loves you and God the Father loves you as well and you have the Holy Spirit right there with you helping you pray. God saw us in our desperate state and sent us His only begotten Son to die in our place for our sins. God isn't seeking to destroy you.

Heb 12
5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
There is s difference between punishment (in the Biblical sense which entails righteous judgment) and chastening. The third definition of chastening bears this out (although all of them are accurate to some degree, except "punish"):
chasten: "To rid of excess; refine or purify."
punish: "1) To subject to a penalty for an offense, sin, or fault. 2) To inflict a penalty for (an offense). 3) To handle or use roughly; damage or hurt."
NONE of those definitions of punishment apply to how God deals with His children.
So the question is "why does got chasten"? I think you know the answer. It is in the third definition and in Hebrews 12: "for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness".
This is revealed in Mark. Jesus is angry at the pharisees, but why? He's angry because they hardened their hearts! It grieved Him! God doesn't want His children to have hard hearts. He wants the BEST for you! He wants to REWARD you! He wants to BLESS you! He LOVES YOU!
Mark 3:5
And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
I love how Paul puts it in Romans 5:
10For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. 11And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
Think about it. If He loved you that much while your were His ENEMY, how much more now that you are reconciled, should you have joy in His love, now that you are called A SON? Now THAT is LOVE!
Just remember. A good father does not enjoy punishing his children, but a good father will discipline his children. Why? Because he is a good father!
So, if you aren't being chastised, does that mean you aren't a son? NO! For God is long-suffering! Does it mean you should go on sinning? God forbid! He will discipline His children. Do not use grace as an occasion for the flesh. But DO NOT doubt His promises! You should try to do better. But not to be saved, but because you ARE saved if you believe!
Finally, as far as the oath goes, look to the story of Jephthah in Judges 11:
30Jephthah made this vow to the LORD: “If indeed You will deliver the Ammonites into my hand, 31then whatever comes out the door of my house to greet me on my triumphant return from the Ammonites will belong to the LORD, and I will offer it up as a burnt offering.” 32So Jephthah crossed over to the Ammonites to fight against them, and the LORD delivered them into his hand. 33With a great blow he devastated twenty cities from Aroer to the vicinity of Minnith, as far as Abel-keramim. So the Ammonites were subdued before the Israelites. 34And when Jephthah returned home to Mizpah, there was his daughter coming out to meet him with tambourines and dancing! She was his only child; he had no son or daughter besides her. 35As soon as Jephthah saw her, he tore his clothes and said, “No! Not my daughter! You have brought me to my knees! You have brought great misery upon me, for I have given my word to the LORD and cannot take it back.”
A vow to The Lord is only as binding as it is according to God's will. Did God want Jephthah to keep this vow? I don't think so.
Jeremiah 19:5
They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind:
Point is, you cannot promise to stop sinning. 1 John 1:10 basically assures us of that. So ask for forgiveness for breaking your covenant with The Lord, and instead do what Jesus said: Let your yes be yes and your no be no!
God bless you dear brother. Do not let the Enemy bring you into condemnation. You have passed from death to life. Rest in the love of Jesus today and make Him proud! Ask for love. For in perfect love there is no fear. Perfect love casts out fear. Rejoice! Let the joy of the Lord be your strength! Rejoice!
@fabionpettigrew8249
First of all, God has not given us a spirit of fear brother. Do not despair! But let's take a look at what chastisement means, first!

Under our apostle Paul’s ministry,to be SAVED, you must BELIEVE/TRUST The Gospel of Jesus Christ,1 st Corinthians Chapter 15 verses 1-4.Jesus Christ died on the cross for all of your sins,was buried,and rose again on the third day.Jesus Christ’s Shed Blood is what saves you when you Believe this plan of salvation with your heart.Romans 3:25” Faith in His Blood”.
Some people say that you can believe in Jesus as “Savior” but not as “Lord.” That is, you can believe in him but never repent of your sin. You can believe in him and be saved even if your life goes on just as it was before you became a Christian. Or so the claim goes. Some people even claim that if we say repentance is necessary for salvation we’re adding works to the gospel. They claim that if repentance is required then we’re no longer saved by God’s grace alone, but by what we do as well. But what does the Scripture say? Jesus says, “I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance” (Luke 5:32) Jesus told his disciples to proclaim “repentance and forgiveness of sins” in his name to all the nations (Luke 24:47). When the apostles preached in Acts, they called people to repent of their sins in order to be forgiven (See Acts 2:38, 3:19, 8:32, 17:30, 20:21, 26:20). The apostle Paul makes it clear that those whose lives are characterized by sin “will not inherit the kingdom of God” (1 Cor. 6:9-10; see also Rom. 8:12-13, Gal. 5:21, Eph. 5:5). According to the unanimous testimony of Scripture, repentance is absolutely necessary in order to be saved. Only those who turn from their sin, trust in Christ, and live lives that are characterized by righteousness will be saved on the last day. But then is repentance a “work” we must perform in order to earn our salvation? Not at all! Repentance and faith are really two sides of the same coin. Repentance is a change of mind.. Faith is turning to, trusting in, and relying on Christ. Repentance is not a “work” anymore than faith is: we simply renounce our sin and rely on Christ. Since the Bible makes it clear that we must repent in order to be saved, what will happen to those who do not repent? Jesus said, “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3). Before one repents, there is no concern, regret or determination at all to do anything about one’s sins. Such will cause one to “perish,” if he does not turn. The Bible says that true “repentance leads to life” (Acts 11:18). One is not granted a new life in Christ at the moment of repentance, for there is more that he must do based upon his turn from sin. But one is on the path to be granted a life from free sin when he makes up his mind to repent. God's Word tells us plainly that “the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23) and Jesus said, “unless you repent, you too will all perish” (Luke 13:3). On the contrary, repentance leads to life (Acts 11:18) and salvation (2 Corinthians 7:10). Ultimately, when we repent, we are inviting Jesus to have fellowship with us. And when you repent and put your faith and trust in Jesus, He sends His Holy Spirit to live on the inside of you. He is God's seal of salvation. The Holy Spirit works on our consciences, convicting us of sin and righteousness, moving us to repent (John 16:7-8). He transforms us by the renewing of our minds according to the Word of God (Rom. 12:1-2). The Holy Spirit is the key. You must have Him to be saved. Do some research, you will understand. Pray about it. Be blessed
The Bible says that some will abondon the faith. Paul says that he needs to run the race so that he himself is not disqualified. The Bible says that we should not quench the spirit. The bible says to present yourself as a living sacrifice, it is your reasonable service. The Bible says "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries." I struggled with alcohol. I was born again in 2011. I stayed sober for a while. However, I thought that since I was born again, I would be able to drink and not fall into drunkenness. I stayed drunk for the next 12 years until I finally was rushed to the hospital because my liver went out. God saved me. I am sober again. Now I know that alcohol can master me. Now I know that SALVATION did not cancel out my FREE WILL. Now I understand that you CAN abandon your faith. This is what I did. I still believed in Jesus, but I was calling Him Lord without doing what He said. Luckily, if you are fallen into sin, and are in danger of damnation (which the Bible CLEARLY TEACHES in the verses that I quoted above) you can still come back. But, hopefully you wont be chastened as hard as I was, and hopelly you will not sear your conscience so bad with willful sin that you no longer truly believe, and become one of the christians that "fall away". Unbelievers can not fall away. You are not saved by works - you cannot lose your salvation like you would lose a set of car keys, but you can abandon your faith, and there are so many warnings about that in the bible that if anyone REALLY wanted to know the truth about whether or not you can use your free will to trample the blood of Christ and walk away, you can find it in the bible. Start here. Try and refute all of these in context and maybe your eyes will be open, like mine were: Corinthians 9:24-27, Hebrews 10:26-31, Mark 4:13-20, Hebrews 3:12-19, Galatians 5:4-7, Romans 11:18-23, James 5:19-20, Colossians 1:21-23, Matthew 7:21-23, Hebrews 10:35-39, 1 Timothy 4:1, Revelation 2:4-5, Acts 14:22, John 15:1-4, Hebrews 12:14-17, 2 Peter 1:3, Matthew 10:22, Matthew 25:1-13, Luke 12:46-48, Luke 21:34-36, 2 Peter 1:10-11, 2 Peter 3:14-17, 1 Timothy 1:18-19, Matthew 5:13, Acts 11:23, Galatians 4:9-11, 1 Thessalonians 3:4-5, Hebrews 2:1-3, Revelation 2:13, Revelation 2:16-17, Matthew 13:18-23, Luke 8:11-15, Luke 14:34-35, Matthew 3:10, Luke 3:9, Matthew 24:4-13, Mark 9:43-50, Luke 13:6-9, John 8:31-32, Romans 8:12-17, Hebrews 6:11-12, Hebrews 10:22-24, Galatians 6:7-9, Philippians 3:17-4:1, 1 Peter 1:6-9, 2 Peter 2:1-3, 1 Timothy 6:10, 2 Timothy 2:22-26, 1 John 2:24, Revelation 2:25-29, Revelation 3:10-11, Revelation 3:12-13, Revelation 3:21-22.
You can abandon your faith, not your salvation. If a person ever received the gospel of grace, they were at the very moment of faith in Christ "translated" into the kingdom (Col. 1:12-14). This is because God never saved the body of flesh. Only the spirit is born of God, not the physical person. The flesh "profitteth nothing" from our being "born of the Spirit".
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. John 3:6
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. John 6:63

This is why Jesus gave the apostles (first bishops) the power to forgive sins, which we are taught in 1 John 5:17 that some sin is mortal sin... Jesus also gave the apostles "The Same Authority" that the Father gave Jesus.... Which means that the apostles passed on their authority to their successors, because they were given the authority to do so. Go to confession, confess lusting over porn as often as you do it. Remember Jesus tells us, wherever 2 or more are gathered in His name, He is there in their midst... and that's exactly what Confession is, Jesus there, forgiving your sins, through the priest.
