When is one too far gone?

[ncgolf]

When one thinks they are wicked or evil and beyond hope … what I think you really mean is that you think you are unlovable. How could God love or why would God love such a wretched person? What this means is at that moment we do not love ourselves … we see and know the sin inside of us and we disgust ourselves. But God’s love is not bound or dependent on what we have done or will do. God loved us before we existed and promised to love us forever. You must pray and meditate on the fact and come to an understanding that God loves you more than you can ever imagine. If you are in the spirtual gutter … Jesus is right there beside you … he will never, ever leave you, he is not too proud to be with you even in your sin. Turn your attention from yourself and focus on the goodness of God … turn from the darkness inside you and look to the light beside you.

Exile them to someplace desolate.Better still, leave them behind when the end of the world comes, like what Noah did during the great flood.

Why would you make those comments on a thread where someone is seeking forgiveness and the grace of God?

Do you have any compassion? Do you believe in forgiveness? And Noah didn’t leave them behind. God did. It’s not your call to make.

I know Noah didn’t ditch them.

I know Noah didn’t ditch them.

But you are advocating to “get rid of” anyone who does not conform to your standards. What a small place the world would be if there were only room for perfect people.

Isn’t the Heavenly Father the only One who is perfect? Aren’t we all just sinners in seek of forgiveness and eternal life? Are your sins lesser than others’ that you can make these statements?

If you are worried about it you are not too far gone.

You would have to utterly and completely reject the the Holy Spirit, you would have a complete disdain and revulsion to the things of God.

If you really felt that strong of a disdain against the things of God…You really would not care if you were too far gone or not. The very act of sincerely asking proves you aren’t!
