Sure man, but would you explain how you've logically ended up with Christianity?

It's not meaningless if you have Him, anon.

Call it desperation or dellusion, but unless someone else can objectively prove their God, then this is really my only chance to bring peace to myself. Becoming some theology addict and using my guilt to empathise with people at a local church group is all I have right now to 'ease the pain' as you will.

All the best to you anon.

With this understood, it is important to not treat the Bible as a book itself but a collection of them and pick and choose the order. The gospels and then Acts are your best options for a start.

All gospels are written as a mixture of information given about Jesus' life and the eyewitness accounts. Acts is eyewitness accounts as well.

If you want commentaries, I recommend the Ignatius Study Bible.

If it says to be prepared to defend yourselves but just not violently it's not supporting the doormat Christcuck stereotype at all and works against the claim.

I appreciate this. If anyone wants to rewrite or correct my shitty writing in different sections, I'll be happy to make the change.

I sinned again.

Growing up I had been sexually molested by people, a brother and a sister from another family had convinced me to do things at a young age and looking back I feel nothing.

I bring it up only to give context to when my sexual desires, thoughts, and actions began. It has no weight on me, I believe, and I think it'd be a cop out to try and say it later influenced my sexual addictions and homoerotic fling I had for about a year.

No, all of that came about because of my own free will and knowing this I came to God and I'm looking for salvation. But I keep falling into sexual depravity and I just can't feel anything. I want to cry, and I want to feel a gut churning pain that really brings me to my knees so that I can pray to the Lord for forgiveness but I just don't feel anything beyond post-masturbation regret which lasts for about 3-5 minutes.

It doesn't even matter how depraved the act actually is, or what it is that I view to get off; it all has no impact in the long run on my emotions.

I want to find God, but I feel like I'm just a lost faggot caught in the whirlwind and that I'm going to be spat out in the fires of hell.

If any of you are Christians I'd ask that you pray for my salvation, and a strengthened will. I love Christ, but I ruin his temple so often.
