Is it possible that God forgave him but he couldn't forgive himself.

either way he acted upon self-first and not God first... we know that which is redeemed is so inclined to place God first for that is the way, truth and life in Christ... Seen in Christ in the garden where all of His Being cried out for another way YET all of His desire was second to The Will of His Father... showing the priority of self to be God's Will... The bottom line to suicide is my life is mine and I will do with as I wish... the act itself states this...

is it possible for God to forgive him... NO and still have God's Word be without flaw:

John 17:12 (KJV)

[12] While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

Jesus taught that we must get our own house in order before we are to help others with their sins. 

I am to the point with my sun that I feel I am of no use to others for this very reason^

My point was to emphasize HELPING others, rather than judging others. But I appreciate your candor and I am praying for you.

Oh, I know- I was just saying it’s hard for me to feel I can ever get to the point of helping others. Feeling sorry for myself I guess😂

i heard porn addiction is caused by intimacy wounds, i was an intimate empathetic person as a kid but ive never felt intimate with anyone for several years (im 20), never had a girlfriend or a mutual crush, feel like ill be forever alone because im unnattractive multiple times, had a bad relationship with my parents for most of my teen years,

How are you doing now?

About things of our past > start new in Jesus. Trust God to have us living and loving the way His word says.

only have a few friends im close with and my empathy is bad, it makes me feel like a sociopath sometimes because i genuinely find it hard to care about people most of the time. i feel like i have some severe emotional wounds regarding intimacy.

So, you seem to be aware of what can be issues. So, this could mean you have a conscience that works. But we need how only God is able to change us into His way of loving and sharing. 

But yes, perhaps you should thank God that you know you need to have empathy for people. I suspect that there are a number of people who do not get feeling for others. And ones of them can be very sociable and charming.

So, God bless you to be encouraged, and know that Jesus feels for > you < . . .

"For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin." (Hebrews 4:15)

I face similar issue. I will write down sort of public confession maybe it will help to me. Maybe it will help to others as I will show how that crazy mindset works.

On some days when bored suddenly find myself out of control to harvest sexual content from internet despite never really liking that kind of my own behavior. Even as I woke up I feel that this really might happen what I do not like and still it happens later. In the most such cases I start with half innocent dating site thinking that I can not ban that to myself anymore, but it kinda awakens the beast to drift all around net from it. I have some quite unrealistic girl type which does not exist in dating site, but still I have to check for that again. And then I remember that it exists in other web sites without even thinking again how bad it is.

So it is clear "gunpowder" recipe for disaster: well rested, quite bored and then some dating site to warm up and breach mental defenses really.

I read pretty much all topic and hopefully I will face it with proper mindset next time.

How is it going so far?

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
