If you were in that position, would you still strive to live a virtuous life or would you fall into hedonistic degeneracy?
>>42613876Why do you assume you're going to hell?
>>42613893I had a lot of moments where I cursed God and I'm pretty sure I've blasphemed the Holy Spirit and I really can't feel God anymore. I'm planning on going to a trip to Egpyt to talk to some coptic orthodox monks and see what they say but I'm afraid they will confirm that I'm just doomed
>>42613917Are you old enough to travel to Egypt without an adult guardian?
>>42613917If god is real and he is just then he will forgive you if you sincerely repent and change your ways. The only unforgivable sin is what elites do to children. That will get you sent stright to endless torment.
>>42613876just don't go. simple as.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fY8dENdB620&ra=m
>>42613938I don't understand why God won't help me change my ways, I try really hard not to sin but I keep on falling which leads me to think I've been left to my own devices
>>42613876The good news is you don't have to worry about going to hell. The bad news is you are already in hell.
>>42613917You aren't. That's not what offending the holy spirit means. To offend the holy spirit is to be unconcerned with God. The most obvious evidence you haven't is that you believe you have, and believe this is bad. You don't deny God. The pharisees blasphemed the holy spirit by witnessing Christ's miracles first-hand and attributing them to demons despite knowing better. You, compared to them, are ignorant. Your blasphemy is a drop in the ocean of blasphemy God endures every day. And he is willing to forgive the whole of that ocean, plus infinity. If you go to Egypt, you'll be told the same thing. Save yourself the trip and simply apologize to God. You WILL be forgiven.
>>42613928Does disrespecting people make you feel powerful?
>>42613955Thank you Anon. It's hard not to fall into despair, I struggle so much with my sexual degeneracy, I've been fighting it for a decade now and I didn’t go through any significant transformation and it's pretty demoralizing
>>42613953Nothing has befallen you other than what is common to mankind.>Romans 7:15-20 - I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.Everything is accounted for. It's only your fallen nature. God will forgive you. Your sincerity and effort are his concern.
>>42613969I understand. I have the same problems, lots of guys our age do. But God understands as well. He won't give up on you, even if you give up on yourself. He'll lift you right back up.
>>42613973>>42613979I hope so, sometimes it's so hard to fight the urges that I end up with a headache. I guess what concerns me the most is that I fail to see what I haven't tried yet, from my point of view, I've tried everything and nothing works
>>42613999Maybe it will never work. But even if it doesn't, God will forgive you. Failure is always a possibility in life. Satan wants you to dwell on it and give in to despair. Even if you fail, you have many more chances and infinity besides that. Trust God's mercy. It's his guarantee to us.
>>42613876>If you were in that position, would you still strive to live a virtuous life or would you fall into hedonistic degeneracy?I would strive to live a virtuous life. Even if I was damned, I still want to be as pleasing to God as possible. We have no right to salvation, but God gives it freely despite all of the horrible things humans do. If we do suffer for being pathetic, malformed creatures, that is within God's right to decide.
>>42613917>EgyptMore like fat camp. Amirite?
>>42613917I went on a pilgrimage to St. Non's well and feel connected to God again. You should definitely keep an open heart and try to really embrace God.
>>42613876Heaven and hell are temporary states of mind, or rather, states of the soul. Satisfaction of a life well lived and lessons learned, or shame and desolation from a miserable life lived poorly. Regardless of outcome, the soul always seems to choose to live another life and try again eventually. Souls are God's literal children, God is essentially an adult soul with full powers unlocked.
I'm going to hell because I hope God doesn't exist and I picture myself without him in the afterlife making my own stuff. I don't think I'd like heaven with a god watching me 24/7
>>42614194People often assume heaven is just like earth and you'll have the same fears and insecurities you need to have in a fallen world. God isn't like an authoritarian government spying on you to power trip. If you're in heaven, you'll like that God watches over you. He just likes us.
>>42614194Do you dislike the sun for shining over your head all day? Do you hate its rays for touching you and violating your personal space?Now imagine God who created the sun purely so you could be warmed by its rays. The one who sent his only son to suffer and die by human hands to save us.
>>42614237The sun is a burning ball of gas in space
>>42614249Yeah. God put a big ball of fire in space so that you can be warm. If he's willing to do that, you think heaven will be miserable?
>>42614255Were you there?
>>42613917God does radio silence to let the devil test you because there are people living in this world going through hell right now and if the literal image of perfection and holiness was crucified here, by God you will share in the afflictions. This is a curse on humanity by God.We should create the 4th reich, establish surveillance and weed out the traitors and cock suckers and drug dealing pimps and child fuckers and groomers and enemy propaganda influences..
>>42614302Job 38Were you?
>>42614321Maybe. It's hard to remember.
