It's also important to make sure that whatever you do does not cause a weaker brother/sister to stumble/fall when they see what you're doing.

If it is not God's desire that you should have a tattoo or not then don't put on a tattoo.

Added on April 10, 2012, 2:10 pmI also think that, yes although we now live by Grace but God did not abolish the law in the new testament, He came to fulfil it.

Matthew 5:17
New International Version (©1984)
"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

You can't say "oh we live by grace now, we can ignore the law of GRAVITY", we can try jumping down from buildings now since we are not under the law. That's wrong, the LAW still applies. It's there to guide us

Galations 5:14

The entire law is summed up in a single command: "Love your neighbor as yourself."

You can't say "oh we live by grace now, we can ignore the law of GRAVITY", we can try jumping down from buildings now since we are not under the law. That's wrong, the LAW still applies. It's there to guide us

James 2:10
For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.

Romans 4:14
For if those who live by law are heirs, faith has no value and the promise is worthless,

Matthew 22:36-40

Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

Jesus replied: “‘
1. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it:
2.‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’

All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

1 Corinthians 16:14

Do everything in love.

When you sin, you will be prompted by the Spirit. You must ask for forgiveness and repent.

The word REPENT means that now you know that this is a sin, ask God to help you to stop to sin in this area.

It can be pornography, ask God to cleanse you from this area. Watch no more pornography, you know that Satan will tempt you to watch it.

If you know that you can't resist your computer to turn on Pornography website, just DELETE all your pornography and BLOCK all the websites that you visit often and lock the file. Best is, close your eyes and put in the password that locks it and you'll never access it any more.

This is what I've done so far OF THIS EXTREME to hinder from sexual sins.

Luke 22:31
Satan demanded to have you, that he might sift you like wheat

(James 1:13)
When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone;

Romans 8:31

If God is for us, who can be against us?

Romans 8:28

And we know that in ALL things God works for the good of those who love him

unknown warrior,

U r really good..Today i learn new things again.
I like the phrase below:

QUOTE

Luke 22:31
Satan demanded to have you, that he might sift you like wheat
This verse tells us, Satan is more concern on Christians.
Because for one, we are born again. Christian who are mature spiritually are dangerous to the devil and his kingdom.
We cause damage by advancing the Kingdom of God and cause a decline to theirs.

What about Non believers?
Non Believers are already dead spiritually and lost, so the enemy don't really need to focus so much on them. Maybe they'll just keep maintain them in being lost through the world's system like pornography, lust, new age teaching, religion, etc.

That is why.
U just ++ my faith..Amen

I'm a christian but dunno why I dunno much about christianity. Actually I got pray and I believe in god. But I barely have any knowledge about christianity (nearly 0 to be honest ), am I the only like this? I hope god and everyone will forgive me on my lack of knowledge.

Now I wanna learn but where should I start? Read the whole bible?

when is Lord Jesus coming again?

I find this world too tough

Matthew 4:4

Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"

John 4:4-6
Now he had to go through Samaria. So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground Jacob had given to his son Joseph. Jacob’s well was there, and Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

John 4:27-32

Just then his disciples returned and were surprised to find him talking with a woman. But no one asked, “What do you want?” or “Why are you talking with her?”

Then, leaving her water jar, the woman went back to the town and said to the people, “Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?” They came out of the town and made their way toward him.

Meanwhile his disciples urged him, “Rabbi, eat something.”

But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.” 

John 6:53-56
Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him.

John 6:36
Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.

Yup. The Bible is a book on eating ... nom nom nom

After God created man, God did not say that man needed life or salvation. Neither did He say that man needed to love and obey God. Nor did He say that man needed to be humble or to be peaceable. After God created man, He put man in a garden, and He placed man before the tree of life, telling him in effect, "Eat! Eat! Eat!"

Finally, at the end of Revelation you see the New Jerusalem with a river of water and the tree of life growing on both sides of the river. There is a verse in the last chapter of Revelation that says, "Blessed are those who wash their robes that they may have right to the tree of life" (v. 14). Therefore, we see that eating and drinking the Lord is our destiny. This is God's ordination. If you do anything else or have any other choice, you will find death. God's ordination is our destiny. We should not have our own choice.

There is no question but that alcohol is one of the foremost factors in the destruction of the society, the family, human lives, and many other precious things. Alcohol kills, maims, and destroys the lives of millions of people yearly around the world. It is odd, then, that so many people, including those whose lives have been ruined by alcohol, still work hard to support alcohol. The Bible has much to say about alcohol, and Christians should be familiar with God's truth on drinking.

Hmm. Alcohol in medical application, believe it or not, it is another question. lol

Hi unknown,

Im asking about consume alcohol. Not medical or others cos for muslim they only relate consume as sin

Some people choose to totally abstain from alcohol, and the Scriptures don't say that they should start.

Some other people should totally abstain from alcohol, or remain totally abstinent from alcohol, because the Scriptures make plain why excessive alcohol consumption (i.e. "alcoholism") is very damaging, not just for the individual who can't control their behavior, but for their families and society as a whole who are hurt by them.

Still other people do drink, very moderately, and the Scriptures say that it's not wrong.

There is no one answer to the question "Is drinking alcohol a sin?" - for some people, in some ways, it is a sin, for others, in other ways, it's not a sin.

John the Baptist did not drink alcohol; Jesus Christ did drink alcohol in moderation (as explained further below, getting drunk is a sin, but Jesus Christ never sinned - therefore Jesus drank, but never got drunk) - and both were criticized for it, either way:

"For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil. The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!" (Luke 7:33-34 KJV)
Those who use the term "demon alcohol," or terms like it, may wish to reconsider how they express it when it comes to Christianity. Jesus Christ did consume alcohol, but was absolutely spiritually pure - He warned about blaspheming the Holy Spirit in any way:

"And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come" (Matthew 12:32 KJV)
Alcohol consumption becomes a sin when it corrupts righteous thought or behavior, harms health, or violates any civil law:

"Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes? They that tarry long at the wine" (Proverbs 23:29-30 KJV)
"Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh: For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty" (Proverbs 23:20-21 KJV)

"And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess" (Ephesians 5:18 KJV)
