Because porn isn't just a game or an escape ... it's life and death serious stuff ... that's what fuels your heart ... like the heart of our Father ... to save the lost, rescue the perishing ... and until we reach the shore on the other side, none of us are "safe." We all need close, intimate, safe, strong, weak, grace-filled brothers and sisters who don't believe the lies of "I'm fine" and who war with us side-by-side. Be strong and very courageous ... as your name means, "ruler of the world" ... not that you rule over the entire world, but that He has called you to be an overcomer ... ... ... grace and peace to you, bro!

That's the good memories to hang on to. Everyone here regrets the choice he made, the despair he must have felt to make such a decision. Yeah, the anger over it makes sense, too. But, like one comment said, be angry at the devil, for deceiving people, accusing the brethren. God is the glory and the lifter of our heads. He's the God of all comfort, and may He comfort all those who loved this servant of the Lord. Of course, many ponder the eternal state of a suicide. This is something only God knows. I'm sure, despite what he did, he was still calling on the name of the Lord to be saved. Even Samson of old, when his strength returned asked God for the strength to pull down the building on the enemies of God, though Samson would die under the same roof. I tend to think that Samson, despite his flaws and eye for the ladies, made it to Abraham's bosom that day. Perhaps Steve, being disraught for everyone involved, thought that the only way to excorcise this enemy was to pull the building down on top of it. May he rest in peace in Christ. May the work of God go forward. May we be transparent about our needs and true to our hearts. Dear brother,
