"The Foolishness of Repetitive Sin" | Pastor Steve Gaines 

I’ve been struggling with my sin and have been feeling lost lately. I decided to come to RU-vid and search sermons on sin and this popped up first. I’m so thankful I watched this. It was nobody but God!

Probably the best sermon I ever heard on sin, really hit home on my own weakness in the area of lust for women, sin is rebellion towards God and must be dealt with in the life of every believer.

The spirit Is willing but the flesh is weak.To set your mind on the flesh is death but to set your mind on the Spirit is life and peace.

I am stuck in the cycle repetitive sexual sin(pornography & masturbation), I need prayers. I know I need to repent but I just don't know how. I've tried so many times ask for forgiveness, made changes but still I go back to this sin.

Wages of sin is death,,,,,just STOP YOUR REPETITIVE SIN NOW

I need to get angry about anything sinful about my life. Father forgive and help me Lord

Your great strength is your purity without it you are weak so the devil uses sin to unpurify you

How can one repent unless God give the power to do so. Because we are flesh and the flesh is contrary to God. I have diligently and seriously ask God to deliver me from my addiction but no victory. I can not change of my on if God don't do it for me. My heart long's for a relationship with God. Pastor I believe even you still have sin in your life as well. And Samson in the end called out to God and asked for strength to avenge his self and God granted him the strength to do so. I believe Samson was granted salvation at the end as well.

Thank you. I did foolishly get distracted after God dealt with me incredibly lovingly but seriously about repentance a month ago. And because I got distracted He withdrew his help from me till I realized how seriously sick (spiritually) I was. No more. Really have to buckle down and let God work in my life. I hope beyond hope I am not beyond saving though I have backslid too far for too long.

God loves the sinner but hate the sins

Finding this sermon has been a direct blessing. Thank You.

His video reached me for a reason God bless you all. 🙏 remember obidence is better then sacrifice

Yes wr do repeat the same Sin over and over but i am sure we don t mean to I don t like my sin i don t want to sin but it seen to be easyer to do what we don t want to do I dont want to sin i want to felliw jesus it get up set and i start cursing and i know its not godly please pray for me I did make jesus my Lord and savior I know i have a lot of hurts deep down in side

Very good sermon and a reminder that I must always be aware of my thoughts because that will lead to actions. Praise God!!

Thank you for this message, it hits hard, thankfully.

POWERFUL message

Thank you so much.

Wow! Excellent message

Please pray for me I need your intercession thank you 🙏

Amen... very very straight!

Great word

The bible said if we kept repeating "the same mistakes/sins" over and over again, then we might not be forgiven by God... Why?... because DEATH is only around the corner, and may catch up with us that we have no time to repent, then we are not SAVE (like death by accident, heart attack, etc.)... Christ said, keep your clothes/garments "CLEAN" at all times for you never know when the THIEF (Death) comes in your doorway... The "THIEF" symbolized "DEATH" and the "2ND COMING OF CHRIST," for nobody knows "the day and the hour" neither by the Son of God nor the Angels but the Father God alone knows... The bible said, that God is the "GIVER and TAKER" of all His creation's "LIVES"... while Christ Jesus (Son of God) is the "Life Giver" only... Christ said, he who believes in me, and I in him will have the Eternal (Giving) Life... To God, be the Glory, Power, and Honor, in Christ Jesus name... Amen.

This is a very Catholic sermon. Only thing missing is the concrete forgiveness of God in the Sacrament of Penance. Beautiful thing.

This has been life changing for me.

I agree Eric Curtis...this message is serious business.

Amen!

🙏 Amen

Thank you Pastor Im mad at my sin and I found myself here. I think its crunch time. Pray for me.

Amen🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾

Don't fail to see here, who left Samson who? The Lord! And some teach once saved always saved? Paul in 1st Corinthians 9;27 teaches that a person can become Disqualified. This idea is a result of misunderstanding the Lord will never leave you, He will never leave you but you like Samson can, and in you leaving, the Lord He has left you, it is your sin that has separated you from The Lord not the Lord. In Roman's 1 in the text it say God handed them over to a reprobate mind.

It's sad but the greatest thing Samson did to destroy the Lord's enemies was Samsons demise

Lust for food is what I struggle with!! Help Lord!!

Do not try to make war with your sin, RUN from it. Flee. And also,…PREVENT it. Mathew 5:29

Reality

I'm sick of repetitive sin, I really wanna avoid it but it's hard, sometimes I feel like am the worst sinner in the entire world I wish I could one day wake up and never sin again Sexual sin really sucks

Honestly I feel doomed to spend an eternity in Hell because of my repetitive sins. It would've been better if I were never born. I know God hates the very sight of me. He dares not waste His precious time looking at me. I'm beyond ruined. If only I could undo my life and start over. I feel the wages of my sins and it's so heavy. I feel dead. This is probably how Judas felt: Dead.

Ouch ouch!!😢😢

He lost is commun sense !he couldn't see what she was trying to do because of his sexual lust wow.

appreciate the word…..maybe excepting the reference to Gaza still today being a place full of Israel’s enemies…..was that necessary to say? Palestinians aren’t the enemy . . . sin is yes….as we see from Samson …it’s in Israel as well as Gaza…..stop the Israeli bias! God has NO favourites!

but Samson was in Heaven anyways

It says in actuallity of true names 24So the woman bore a son and called his name Shimshon. And the child grew, and יהוה blessed him. Yuah in hebrew is god. Not lord. Lord is usually implied his son yusha. The one you call jesus.

Amen!
