Author	Thread: God is the Only Lasting Source
lyrics71^ View Profile History	God is the Only Lasting Source Posted : 17 Jul, 2021 05:59 AM As human beings we are created by God to be happy and to feel good about ourselves. As a matter of fact, we must feel good about ourselves, or eventually we will develop some sort of unhealthy, uncontrolled behavior to get the good feelings we crave. Think about it. A person who is addicted to drugs probably began using them because his pain was so intense he felt compelled to get rid of it, even if only temporarily. The same thing is true of drinking, or using food as a comfort. If we do not get good feelings from the inside, then we attempt to create them through outside means. God created us that way and He's the only one who can satisfy us. When we go to something other than God to make us feel good about ourselves, we're really just replacing something real with a cheap substitute. Whatever your emotional needs are today, know that only God can meet them. He is the only lasting source of life. Go to Him today, He's the only One who can satisfy. Prayer : God, I don't want to waste my time chasing cheap substitutes. You are the only One who can satisfy. Show me how to daily find my true delight and satisfaction in You and only You. Post Reply

As a matter of fact, we must feel good about ourselves, or eventually we will develop some sort of unhealthy, uncontrolled behavior to get the good feelings we crave. Quiz: Where did you get this non Biblical ridiculous nonsense from, maybe Frued, Jung, Young, Tony Robbins, or a local sick-ciatrist, or sick-cologist you have been seeing. YASHUA did not go to the cross in order for you or anyone to FEEL GOOD, He went in order to save your SIN FILLED soul. He came that we would have LIFE dzoay, that is the life of GOD, and to have that life more abundant. John 10 verse 10 Another want to feel good but, have no Biblical truth nonsense posting.

Excellent post! Now if you could just be more consistent at exposing false teaching by correcting your own fallacies that are just as egregious. Post Reply

Quiznos View Profile History	God is the Only Lasting Source Posted : 24 Jul, 2021 08:22 AM How about Messiah being beaten with the cat o nine tails, or the early believers being fed to the lions, or set on fire for Neros gardens. What is the difference between you wanting to feel good about yourself, and me doing a big dump, i actually FEEL quite relieved and less weighed down. Post Reply

Looks like we agree on some things but differ on several others. If you wanna start a thread on any topic that you want to select and discuss a particular issue that would be great and I’ll try to ask questions to make sure I thoroughly understand your argument before I offer a response. If you want, that is Post Reply
