This did little to calm my spirit, because I enjoyed committing mortal sins.

That sounds demonic.

It was, but I am no longer involved in that particular religion. When I was in that religion, I seemed powerless to avoid mortal sins, so I thought that if I couldn't stop committing mortal sins, I might as well enjoy it. I know it's weird, but I don't do it that way anymore.

et: That sounds demonic.

Why would you expect anything different from someone who was not saved, or is not saved?

The unsaved don't have the Holy Spirit in them. That doesn't leave much.

Sinners sin. It's what they do. How could you expect them to have any spiritual interest or desires when they are dead to the Spirit?

Merely biblical.

If it weren't fun we wouldn't do it!


Hebrews 11:24-26  King James Version (KJV)

  By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;

 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;

  Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
