Have you seen the questions I've asked, caww?

You know that I know Scripture, and know that God uses sinners. That has not been my point.

My question is whether or not Newt has changed his ways, recognizing that what he did was sin. If you have quotes or links where that has been addressed, please provide them.

Full video of Perry's speech. It begins at the 15-minute mark: The man we should have chosen, but Jehovah has his own plan.

Former House speaker and potential presidential candidate Newt Gingrich has confessed, telling conservative Christian leader James Dobson that he was cheating on his wife at around the same time the House was impeaching President Bill Clinton over his White House affair with Monica Lewinsky. But Gingrich, who just published a book called "Rediscovering God in America," tapped a religious leader for his confession and expressed repentance. "There are things in my own life that I have turned to God and have gotten on my knees and prayed about and sought God's forgiveness," he told Dobson. http://articles.cnn.com/2007-03-09/politics/gingrich.schneider_1_georgia-republican-newt-gingrich-gingrich-confession?_s=PM:POLITICS

Sin is sin...but I would say King David did far worse in having his lover's husband killed....Newt hasn't done so.

You.ve stated....(My question is whether or not Newt has changed his ways)

Well his 11 yr. marriage currently should pull some weight....but aside from being God you cannot say if or not NEwt's changed....though many associated with Newt have attested to the fact he has...that would be a witness to the fact.

So the question really is what do YOU need to convince you something which cannot be proven as only God knows the future.

The articles already given you should have addressed your questions...because they apparently have not then I doubt there is anything which could. That's just the way you're coming across.

Maybe the question is can you forgive NEwt?

I believe one of the times that Newt said he was sorry was the debate when they nailed Newt to the cross for the whole world to see and asked each candidate about Newt’s charcter. I was appalled by these so called christians responses. Especially Santorums cinder block and Bachmann’s millstone. They revealed more about themselves than they did Newt.

Hi oWf, I don’t know if anyone has answered you, but this morning I was listening to the Mike Gallager show, and he had on a pastor who had spoken to Newt Gingrich. He said that Newt admitted his sin—and he called it sin. He said he watched for signs of real repentence—taking full responsibility, not blaming anyone else, recognizing he sinned against God, and that Newt did all that. He believes that he truly is a repentent sinner. He was also very remorseful for everyone he has hurt in his life. Then I heard a clip of Newt saying that he was like an alocoholic—not a drinker, but the behavior. I don’t remember his exact wording, but he needed God, and so he surrendered his will to the Lord’s.

I felt better after hearing that on my way to work this morning. I just thought I would share it with you.
