ONLY FOR THE BELIEVERS.just came across an interesting article that might change my perception of always blaming the devil for my sins.actually the devil only tempts you into sinning and its your free will that will determine whether you fall into the temptation or choose otherwise.just saw it important to share. |

What if something is a sin in one country and not a sin in another?

is life, just a path to discover if you're a godly or sinful soul! you have both good and bad within you

I am a Christian, was brought up in a christian family ... and always was I taught that we choose what we do, no one and nothing forces us to make the choices we do. blaming the devil is weak, an excuse and something ppl do to try and avoid taking responsibility for their own wrong doings. I am surprised this comes as a revelation to anyone |

@ liambrwn - 10.02.17 - 06:56am It also depends on what type of Christian you are The harsh part is there are those who originally were called that because they followed Christ and obeyd his teachings. And then there are those who label themselves that by without ever bothered to learn what a Christian really was meant to be. Some say there christian because there born into it some say they are because they like going to a church. Its cold put it is the truth. Some even go as far as follow parts of it as seen here and still not His ppl. Matthew 7:21 Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name? 23 And then will I declare to them, I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness. |

The devil lured the woman and also got the man. Eve did say the serpent decheived her. But Adam blamed Eve and God. Genesis 3:12 The man said, The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me from the tree, and I ate. 13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, What is this that you have done? The woman said, The serpent deceived me, and I ate. |

@ liambrwn - 10.02.17 - 02:20pm Yes but some Christians believe they're judged at the end of their life and some believe Christ is guiding them at all times through their life. Its dangerous believing you are specially guided tho that will make us blind to error and being decheived. We need to be checked by the text and have brothers around to spot when were being dragged away. Matthew 24:24 For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will [n]show great [o]signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the [p]elect. |

@ ladibud - 10.02.17 - 08:18am I am a Christian, was brought up in a christian family ... and always was I taught that we choose what we do, no one and nothing forces us to make the choices we do. blaming the devil is weak, an excuse and something ppl do to try and avoid taking responsibility for their own wrong doings. I am surprised this comes as a revelation to anyone thats being ignorant of you to expect everyone else to have been brought up in the same way that you were. |
