Are You Obsessive Compulsive About SIN? 

Why is that so impossible for me to live by

Yes! So glad to see other Christians here who understand this.

Me too! I read a text while driving. I immediately felt convicted about doing it. I said Lord I'm sorry, this isn't safe, plus it's against the law. It seemed everything was ok. But now I feel condemnation. I just want to be allowed to make mistakes(sin) and if I say I'm sorry, receive forgiveness and grace. I want to be able to be human.

after satan dragged me though a law based hell,,,,,accusing me day and night, while I tried to learn the bible, and been saved many decades by all JESUS did,but stumbled caring he would drive me out over certain sin Paul spoke of,and not understanding all Paul meant, (stupid) and satan came,but ALL IS SIN, WE ARE BORN IN IT, and ones who use religions to pick and choose, JESUS SHOWED ME, his standard he filled for us, its vast huge, HE FILLED, ALL forms of it, from sermon mt law to things he said in the new testament before he sacrificed himself to make the new covenant, from forgive to be, which is not of our new as we was forgiven first, to ALL KINDS of things, JESUS FILLED IT, it is done, he did it, he said rest, rest, rest in what he did and he will lead but he is gentle, and wont give you burden, so anyone who does not sell all they got and give to the poor is old covanant law sin,but JESUS FILLED IT, paid it all and now he says think HIM, and love and love for others,,,,and he will lead, with a gentle yoke,

being a human is sinful, born onwhen you accepted JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR, all your sin was removed, for all of it, forever, he washed you and made you his holy, it is real, he did it all and he made a blood oath with us to keep us, he loves you, he paid for all you would ever do and he does not want you upset,JESUS PAID for us to fill a standard ONLY HE COULD FILL, A PERFECTION no human could ever, so he died for us, to pay for anything, any debt, any sin debt, with his blood, IT IS FINSIHED, and he did it to give life and freedom and rest and NOT MAKE ONE WORK, which is a sin, to work for what he already did, its a satan trick, but JESUS FORGIVES and knows your heart, earth, ANYTHING less than the standard perfection of JESUS, IT IS VAST, BUT THERE IS GOOD NEWS,

when you accepted JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR, all your sin was removed, for all of it, forever, he washed you and made you his holy, it is real, he did it all and he made a blood oath with us to keep us, he loves you, he paid for all you would ever do and he does notwant you upset,

Hey sis wassup, I know how you feel. I was able to find freedom from this. In Hebrews 10:1-14. In that chapter the writer was talking about the futility of the Old Covenant sacrificies for sin. Every time someone had to offer a bull or goat, it was just a reminder that they still had sin. However he said something interesting in verse 2, he said "that if the sacrifices were perfect, the worshippers once purified would have no more conciousness of sin" In other words they would no longer have to be worried about sin keeping them from God because they would have been made clean permanently. If only we had a perfect sacrifice to do this very thing😕............. Wait a minute we do! That's where Jesus comes in. Unlike the blood of bulls and goats which just cleared your sin debts before God for a time, Jesus' blood not only cleared our sin debt but His sacrifice gave us a new nature. Hebrews 10:14- For by one offering He has *perfected* those who are being sanctified. That means us😄. We no longer have to be sin concious because the sin was condemened in Jesus' body and when we got baptised we died with Him going into the water and rose with him when we came out as a new creature. God doesn't identify you with sin, He identifies you through the cross. He sees as a new creation. Sin is no longer imputed to you. So long as you believe on Jesus that you have been made clean, you are blameless, holy and upright in His sight. Please feel free to read the scriptures properly for yourself and pray on what I said. Let the Holy Spirit reveal this to you. Jesus' sacrifice was and is enough. We can live free from this perpetual guilt. God bless you.

We're are Saved by Grace through faith in Christ Alone.

@@Jesussaves.7777 Exactly, and we can rest in that grace😊

​@@senonimoustv2497thank you so much for sharing this scripture. ❤

Me too. I am always very afraid that God may leave me because of my sin. When am unable to do sth.. I confess it to God... Ask Him to help but still fear that He may have refused

Same. I'm really glad I found this channel. I was initially alarmed at how he didn't seem to focus on sin like I was used to with other Bible teachers/preachers. But it makes sense now; we must first begin to comprehend our relationship to God as one characterized by grace, not judgment, and by love, not indifference, and by joy and happiness in Christ, not obsession and fear over sin. And THAT will lead to holiness without the obsessiveness and fear and thinly-veiled self-loathing. God bless you, sir/ma'am. ❤

Hi I hope this helps. ❤ I know how hard it is. I had shared this earlier today. “You have to become a baby again. I know it sounds funny. But it’s true. I’m 40 years old. No job. Not married. I’m living at home. A broken home with parents who are broken in their hearts too. Today as most days as I can remember, I woke up and again paralyzed with the same pressure in my stomach I usually have. With the videos I’ve been watching from my brother Mark, learning what truly our Father’s Love is, I got up and I was just sitting, almost shaking. I just looked up and said, “Father I need to get up, I gotta go to work” (I do Instacart when I can) and my utility bill for water is past due and ready for shut off. But that’s another story. (Hint: stealing). While sitting on the side of my bed I’m reminding myself of how much My Heavenly Father Loves me. After a little while, I get one foot on the ground and then the other. Then I tell Father God what I have to do next. And slowly it starts getting easier. And right now I’m watching this video, same stomach pressure, but with JOY. I say this not looking for pity but to make a point. LOVE IS THE ONLY WAY AND THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN HEAL. And ITS OUR HEAVENLY FATHERS LOVE. I’ve stolen, been addicted to drugs, still under maintenance therapy, backslid for many many years. But My Heavenly Father still LOVES me! And His Love is saving my life. We can’t heal until we let it go. The guilt, the shame, and the fear, we have to give it all to Jesus! I was a huge perfectionist for most of what I can remember, but never knew until a few months back while watching one of brother Mark’s videos. And it was not easy accepting that lol. I’ve broken down into tears kneeling and praying for God to help me many times before in life. You won’t get anywhere, I guarantee it, until you look to yourself and admit you are broken in your heart. That’s when the Journey of Love Healing begins. And it’s only our Heavenly Father’s Love that heals. I’m still in the battle, but I pray that this message helps someone. You have to first learn how much you are loved by God Almighty. And He is Our Father. Thank you Jesus I love you. And you too my brother Mark. I can confidently tell someone now that I love them and not feel guilt or shame. We’re not perfect and never will be my brothers and sisters. But we’re learning. And we are sons and daughters of our Father in Heaven through Jesus our Lord. He loves YOU”

Honey, JESUS PAID all of it for you and loves you, he wants you to rest in that he did it all and he is gentle and will lead you gentle,

Have had the same feelings. This line from Roman's 8:6 has helped me alot "For the mind of the flesh is death; but the mind of the spirit is life and peace". All the accusing thoughts in our brain that make us suffer are the minds of the flesh, the opposite is peace.

What encouragement... ❤

Amen, and also when people put posts of the pope if I see them in my head I feel unsaved.

I relate to that too Brother God bless you & may we live in the light of His love & grace.

I am so sorry you go through this. Ok, I am so relieved at the same time to know I'm not the only one who has these feelings of feeling like joy has been robbed and I have all this fear as a Christian and we're not suppose to have fear, so then I feel awful for having all this fewr and obsession around things. Mine comes from seeing other Christians trying to add sins to the bible that I don't see there and then watching them constantly fight back and forth about all these grey areas in the bible and so everyone constantly bickers over their interpretations. And that is mainly where my obsessions come from is never knowing what is sin and what is not sometimes from listening to so many conflicting arguments between believers. Ugh. It's exhausting. Anyway, sorry for my long-winded comment. Just nice to know I am not alone seeing all these comments here.

​@@savedbygrace2280i struggle w/ the same thing. seeing hyper-legalism in others tends to trigger my own tendencies toward legalism, even if a little bit.

@@SyoDraws Yes! It gets so exhausting and it's just mentally tormenting.

​@savedbygrace2280 I'm the same way right now. All these gray areas where Christians are fighting each other on. On what's sin or not is causing me to spin out so bad that I can't enjoy anything without a obsessive thought saying it's sin and that I shouldn't ne doing it bc some person online believes it's sin. Like drinking coffee, reading books etc. There are so many different opinions and convictions, that if someone else has a conviction I obsess if I should have it too or if God is giving me a sign. It's so frustrating.

Amen! ❤

Can you explain a little bit more?

This is literally my thinking rn. My mind is a mess

Guys its a struggle but we have to keep ours eyes on Christ. You didn’t went too far, that sounds like a obsession to be honest. God loves you unconditionally and will forgive you.

I struggle with this also but You don’t have to feel forgiven to be forgiven, its by grace through faith. The problem is you are trying to sense the value of the blood of Jesus Christ by your feelings but it’s by faith. The blood of Jesus Christ by watchman nee talks about this, you can search it on youtube.

There is this thing I heard.. "If God forgives you, who are you not to forgive yourself?" If you truly repent, God forgives, the rest of the feelings are not from God I believe. :)

@ichoozjc I understand what you're going through, as I have the feelings; but feelings are the polar opposite to faith & are not an indication of where we stand with God. The battle is real, but greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the World. The fact that you are on here & watching this shows that you do care & that you belong to Jesus. Take heart. ❤️

Obsessively worried.
