you or he was sick sorry, but that is part of the addiction with porn. It turns into a sexual addiction,
It than sometimes takes on the alcohol part, and then when you get pompous you start the other
Then you have a husge mess by watching others struggle, not my personal struggle

Reed further to 1 John 1:9-10
I wasn't talking about porn. Are you talking about your previous addiction?

Why verses 9 and 10 in that order? 9 is being cleansed of all unrighteousness; and 10 is saying you were born sinless - a lie. In 1 John there is a Hebrew style of writing used that starts with verse 5 and contrasts with the next verses all the way to 10. The contrast is Light vs. Darkness. It is an EASTERN style of writing.

5. God is Light
6. Walk in Darkness
7. Walk in the Light
8. Say you have no sin (In Darkness)
9. Confess and be cleansed of all unrighteousness. (In other words, come to the Light)
10. If you say you haven't sinned. (In Darkness)

Many with western minds can't see it. They even think they have to always admit to being a sinner, when that is the opposite of Paul, also eastern, who told us to reckon ourselves free from sin, lest we sin. John is not telling a Christian to always say they are sinners, but the unsaved to BECOME Christians. Many westerners are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo stupid, and won't study to make themselves approved. I get so sick of showing that Jesus took away our sin, only for someone stupid quoting 1 John 1:8. There was even one recently in this very thread.

Many of my brothers and sisters have no wisdom....and they love to pretend. Perpetual novices.

Many of my brothers and sisters at least have had the milk, I doubt you have.

Core Biblical Requirements
    • Acknowledge Sin: Recognize that all people have sinned and fall short of God’s standard, leaving us in need of a Savior (Romans 3:23).
    • Believe in Jesus: Trust that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that He died on the cross as the full payment for sins, and that He rose from the dead (John 3:16, Acts 16:31).
    • Repent of Sins: Turn away from a lifestyle of sin and turn toward God with a changed mind and heart (Acts 3:19, Luke 13:5).
    • Confess Jesus as Lord: Acknowledge publicly and personally that Jesus is Lord and Savior (Romans 10:9).
The milk.

Even Google knows.
