(January 11, 2016 at 10:06 pm)Rhythm Wrote: Sometimes I feel cheated.  We've got folks on these boards that have had -two-  fantastic "born again" style experiences (one on the way in, one on the way out)......and I get nada.  What was the singlemost pernicious aspect of faith...the last thing you believed?  The final redoubt of piety?

I don't think I could name just one.  Here's a couple:

1. God's will is paramount.  Always consult God on everything.  Want to do something fun?  Ask God first.  Don't let distractions clutter up your mind because God wants to talk to you.  Have you heard from God?  Do you know God's purpose for your life?  Seek God's purpose.  My search for God's will led me on so many ridiculous paths that came to nothing.  Other times I didn't act when I should have because I was trusting God to deliver everything to my doorstep.

2. God hates my sexuality until I'm married.  Don't have sex.  Don't masturbate.  Don't look at women.  Don't think about women.  Don't kiss or touch on dates.  Just sit around with blue balls and think about God.  This area of my Christian life was where I beat myself up more than any other.
