Hugging is perfectly fine, just as long as you don't take it any further. Kissing is also fine, as long as it doesn't lead to anything else. As you are a Christian, you should always wait until you get married before going 'all the way'.

Sure.  Sin is a terrible thing.  The good news is that no matter what it is, if we are repentant and try our best to be obedient and live as God wants us to live, our past sins don't matter.\n\nGod is greater than our sins.  You have to trust that in order to let it go.  He doesn't forgive us because we deserve it, He forgives us because He is so great and He promises to.  Believe Him, and forgive yourself.  \n\nDon't be discouraged.  Just keep working on being at peace with God and yourself.  You do that by doing what He wants you to do to the best of your ability.  We all sin and fall short (present tense) of the glory of God.  But He offers us salvation.  \n\nConcentrate on all His blessings.  Read His Word.  Pray to Him and tell Him all your heart.  He will heal you.\n\nThere is no sin we could ever commit and repent of that is  greater than God's forgiveness.

Im a Christian but i still agree with you.. When Im hurt i dont wanna here just pray or go read your bible. Even as someone who does believe in God, that jus doesnt help me be comforted. Thats the problem with a lot of christians, they jus give the "right" answer and move along instead of maybe actually trying to spend some time with the person or really listening. I know how it feels to have your heart broken and what got me thru wasnt reading my bible and praying, although i dont think those thingss are neccessarily bad, it was suport from my closest friends, who probably did pray for me. Anyway i think you should call those people out on it and see what they say, if they knew how you felt about their advice i think it would change their actions next time theyre put it that situation. Well i hope ive maybe helped a lil and that your heart isnt broken anymore. God Bless.

We're just human. It's not a sin to feel unworthy. But in times like this, we just need to pray and seek God's help. It's only the devil that gives us negative feelings. We have to cast him out in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

It's not a sin.  Enjoy yourself.  Just don't get too obsessed with it.  All things in balance.

Not turning your cheek has ZERO, to do with being a Christian.  I know several Christians will put you in hell before God even gets a chance to look over the situation.\n\n Turning the other cheek is "Discipleship".\n\n I would suggest not slapping someone, just because they are a Christian. It could feel strange, wearing your nose on your ear, for a month or so.

Feel bad for sinning?!?! What, are you nuts?? Christianity ROCKS! I go out on Sat nights, get hammered, have sex with multiple women, and sometimes even men. But I then go to Church on Sunday, so its all good!!! You should give this bombass religeon a try! Its freakin awesome! I can look at myself in the mirror and sleep well at night knowing that Im a better person than you are cuz Im going to heaven! Youre on your way to hell! HA HA HA!!! \n\n(This was a rant...Im not really Christian...)

lust is a natural human feeling. however, it is condemned if you cross the boundaries of thoughts and enter into actions thats when trouble arises. there is danger in everything one does. you, me and the bible is not the one which decides what is right and what is wrong. you cannot limit the choices of a person for what you believe. maybe you might impose it on your family as long as they are dependant on you.. but once they are free and legal adults...they flout your rules, which is common, so its better to just leave things as they are... if u dont want to wear bikinis you might very well stop it. you dont have the right to ask others not to wear it.

The deal is, you yourself are supposed to feel more inclined to not do the sin again. You are supposed to feel regret, and say, damn, thats a sin, im not doing that again.\n\nBut if you keep doing it, then it probably doesnt mean much to you if you confess. If this is true, then there isnt a real reason to confess your sins. Repent yourself if you feel you did wrong, and if you feel you did nothing wrong, live your life as you want to.

Yes BUT I don't think that's an excuse to keep on living a sinful life... there are times when I'm snippy to my friends or walk by someone in need with out helping... God loves me but God loves me enough to want the best me possible

The bible also encourages us to repent of our sins.  By reading what you wrote, I can tell that you would feel more peaceful if you fessed up about what you did. As for how to approach her, explain just as you did here.  Tell her you are a Christian and the lie has been eating at your conscience.  Ask to retake the test. God bless.

the person proable does not have a relationship with Christ. being a Christian is not based on what you have on the outside but a faith on the inside. we are suppose to shine Jesus to others. am sorry about the hard life that you have lived so far. it is very hard to live without parents to support you. like to tell you Jesus said come you  that are heavy laden and I will give  you rest all of you who work so hard beneath a heavey yoke.wear my yoke for it fits perfectly and let me teach you.for I am gentle and humble, and you shall find rest for your souls; for I give you only light burdens. Matthew 11;27.    then Jesus said I come to give life and life more abundly. would you not enjoy that type of life? the yoke you are caring is much to much for you. you are caring a full adults plate. am sorry for your situation.

a hug is a gesture of trust. it closes the gap of personal space between two people.  it creates a feeling of well being and over all safety.\n\nit is taught to humans at a young age to be a symbol of goodness, and love.  It makes you feel safe, and it creates a bond.

i was under the impression that masturbation is a sin no matter what you use because it means you're lusting after something. but i say if it makes you happy, do it. don't deny yourself just because someone else doesn't like it.

it is wronge. the bible says it is wronge but it is also wronge to judge and treat people bad. the bible says go and be shepards of men and treat others as you wont to be treated meaning that i am supposed to let a gay person know if i get the chance so as not to offend them that God says its wronge but i am also to respect them and treat them like humans which they still are. does this answer your question.

some people say that christianity is against homosexuality but honestly i dont know.im a true believer(in God) and i hope im not contradicting the bible. this is my opinion: i dont think people should be made to feel bad because of their sexuality.its up to u to decide if u are strong enough to stand up for yo gay self.if not then do go for counselling and maybe u can find the cause of your problem(thats if uve decided its a problem).who are we to judge people, as far as im concerned if the bible says its wrong then seek treatment, if not and if ur religion allows it then accept yourself bcoz people usually only accept someone who is able to accept himself.

I am christian and I feel it's not right to think like that it's because your flesh wants it so you should not give in, Satan works in our thought so be careful.
