I just returned from a two day Christian retreat which fell on my birthday. The trip helped bring me in community with other believers and I have prayed and battled with urges at night during the trip. Within an hour of being back home. I’m back watching videos and I don’t understand how my flesh is so weak and committing this sin. I find myself going to church now but what’s the point. I don’t want to be a fake believer. I want true repentance. I desire to know the love and peace of God. I say that I don’t want to dishonour women, which is true, but the very of porn is dishonouring of the highest order. Lord have mercy on me.

Genuinely, needed to hear that from both of you. I will deny myself and strengthen the spirit

Woah woah woah. Fake believer?!? Maybe you aren’t understanding 1.) the power of God and 2.) the reason Jesus went to the cross… you failing and having a particular nature is exactly why you want to believe and put faith in Jesus. Sure, you’ll transform over time with healing. But you’ll ALWAYS sin in some form or fashion. Chill, praise Jesus and ask God to heal your heart and you do your part. But again, you ain’t no fake believer because you got a rotten brain like the rest of us. Welcome to a community that can help call you out when you actin up bruthha..!!

You need to starve yourself of the temptation and find the strength and willingness to not give in to those desires and eventually those urges will go away hence starving your body of that desire ultimately killing it

Just like how the body needs food and substance to have energy and keep going you do the same for your sin and temptation

Matthew 26:41 watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak! You need to pray and fast
