Is it to late

[tigger398]

My Dr. did a oxygen level it is number 84 i think there is two numbers. she put this thing on my finger. she says that number needs to go up. I want to quit smoking. I'm afraid it's to late for that. I can't repent when it's to late. so I'll go to hell right. It's to late now to repent if your sick from smoking.

That's interesting.    84 is better than 83, right ?  Is that percent or something else ?  Did she take the thing off your finger ?   Did you look up how to make that number go up ?  Did you ask her ?   Why is it too late for quiting ?  What do you have to repent of ? ((repent today.)).  

Everyone who quits smoking , if it matters,  the day they stop, their health starts improving the very same day.  It still takes time.   But smoking isn't hurting as many people as bad water is.  Not even close.  Are you drinking good water or bad water ? 

p.s. Are you smoking american made ?  Did you know that Japanese tobacco or chemical free tobacco is available ? ((somewhere, I think))...  Might look for that ...  And in the usa, the tobacco companies are providing for free the 'gum' and the patches to people who want to quit.

Oh,  in the Bible, how fast did God help the people who turned to Him in the NT ((maybe in the OT too)).  He sent His Son to die for us.  So , He is MORE THAN READY TO HELP ALL OF US OPPRESSED BY SIN.

It's never too late to repent of something.

If smoking is affecting your health, to quit now would minimize the risks of getting sicker still.

Plus there are reports that say many smoking related diseases subside after quitting... they get better.

We are saved by what we believe, not how we behave. If you believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins and you accept His death as payment for your sins, then you are saved. Lots of people who smoke/smoked are saved. You can quit, you should quit, but don't worry about your salvation.

If your alive its never to late...smoking can be a difficult thing to quit. Just because you haven't been able to quit yet doesn't mean your not saved, we all still have sin in our lives of some sort, whether we want to admit it or not. That is why we are saved by grace through faith and not of works.

You are not going to go to hell if you smoke or have ever smoked if you are a born again believer in Jesus Christ. It is much more dangerous to not have a genuine faith.

But Gods forgiveness comes with a change. to get right with god right. ??? I shouldn't continue with same sin.

Tigger, you don't go to hell for smoking ,we all have some kind of addiction , could be sweets  ,carbs  alcohol ,coffee  or you name it.

If you love the Lord and really wants to stop smoking He will give you the will power to do it and through Him you can do it!

The only sin which keeps us out of heaven and will not be forgiven is the sin  of  unbelieve

Matthew 12:31-32 says, "Every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come."

Love you sister

I remember doing the same thing, pray for forgiveness knowing I was going to smoke again, it took me a long time to stop but

Jesus set me free and He will set you free too..you love Him and He loves you..

When you decide to be serious and give it a try get some Vit C and Magnesium , the magnesium calms your nerves and the Vit C will flush the nicotine faster out of your body..

Jesus will set you free,....

Yes it comes with change.. but not to specific sins. It has to do with a general understanding that we

(the unregenerate man) sin against God daily; when we repent, we're repenting for being this way

towards God... full of iniquity.

The repenting of specific sins comes through sanctification... the daily cleansing/foot-washing that Jesus

talks about in John 13 where the whole man is already cleaned but the feet which get dirty throughout the day.
