How is that going to teach you obedience?

You better learn how to obey.
And the longer you put it off
the harder it will get. In fact if you stop
disobeying God you will not have to be a sinner and praying for Him to forgive you.

Not if you are sinning and having to ask Him to forgive you.
I ask Him to forgive my sins

Because you are sinning. But if you repent and do not disobey Him any more, then you don't have to ask Him to forgive you anymore.
I am doing my best to repent and learn to live for Jesus Christ

The question is...is your best, good enough for Jesus Christ?
I am certain you will find out first hand at some point in time.
I can only pray that it is good enough and hope Jesus Christ will allow me into heavenThe question is...is your best, good enough for Jesus Christ?

Hi Rebecca,
I am sorry I wish to answer you sooner, I wrote a long answer to you hours ago, but my messages seem to get blocked, on my screen it says: "This message is awaiting moderator approval, and is invisible to normal visitors." I do not know why, could it be someone is reporting my messages?
Anyway I am sorry about it, I can hear you are in distress.
To answer your question as good as I can it is No. But if you cannot see you must follow someone that can see.
Jesus warns us sternly about following the blind here Matthew 15:14 Disregard them! They are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.
The pit He is referring to is the pit of fire.
Of course Jesus could and can see, so you could just follow him.But to follow him directly, you need his direct guidance, or to understand what all parts of His teachings mean, that is in the bible.
The fuel for the lamps is purity. Jesus warns us sternly about not having fuel for our lamps Matthew 25:1 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.…
To approach Him who is pure, we too must purify 1 John 3:3 And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as Christ is pure.
But it is not a punishment to purify, it is the greatest of joys to get rid of the dirt, the pain that is hurting us, it is a great liberation and blessing.
So it is written luke 24:47 and in His name repentance and forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem.
What Jesus wants you to clean from are the same things that would hurt you, and stop you from seeing him right now.
There is a second chance to see him after the death of the body of flesh, but why wait, pray that you can see Him now, purify as much as you can so that you may approach Him that is pure. And you will Love Him with all your heart mind and soul.

If you give Him all your love that means you have none for anyone or anything else because He will have it all.
Is this correct?
Share His love with others

His love is not your love.
I have so much to learn
