Can't be Luke warm!!!

[BQ41]

I have rebuked myself because I've been going to the bar again to fill the void. How dare I and I fell into the snare of lust and the spirit of fleshly desires surfaced. I did a line after people came back to hangout. Im conflicted because I cared about her spirit so began speaking about our Lord and Savior. Soon after talking about it I was no longer able to pursue her because I felt it would of been wrong to come on to her after speaking about the Lord. I'm now taking my lashes for past sins and understandably so for we reap what we sow. I tried helping all I could with a kind word and an act of hope. But it is better I stay away and get that thorn out of my eye. And of course lust hit after cuz the enemy tormented me with those thoughts. With us being in the end times I know what I must do for the Kingdom. May God bless you all.

We live in strange times. Up until 100 years ago people throughout the world lived in large extended families. Children would grow up with intimate knowledge of those whom they would marry, work, and live with. Today people are driven to bars to try to meet someone. The alternative is to find a church that actually teaches the bible, get involved in activities like Sunday School, and see if you can meet and get to know those who might have a reciprocal view of you.

You may wish to focus on your own spiritual growth so that you can be the sort of person that would be attractive to the sort of person you would like to meet.

If this is someone you believe you have a genuine connection with, I don't see the problem.  I think your intentions are the key.

You’re right that intentions are important, but when someone’s in the middle of spiritual warfare, especially involving temptation and guilt, it can be hard to tell what’s genuine and what’s emotional confusion. A real connection should bring peace, not conflict. If there’s turmoil and conviction involved, it may be more about personal refinement than relationship direction.
