FAITH IN GOD
Coming forward for the world to know is the hardest thing any of us can do. Some would think that you are setting yourself up for attacks. Your doing that anyway. But, to expose every little detail about what we've gone through in this industry, is exactly what satan wants. He wants to be confronted with this so that he can attack us in every single creative way that is imaginable to the human mind and then beyond. Having faith in Jesus Christ and God is the only way to recognize such attacks. Having faith that God will present them as attacks from satan and not from the person themself, is the most difficult thing for us as humans to recognize. But, how long do we put up with it before we cave in and fall? How long must we put up with it until we give in to our LORD? That depends on your threshold and how long your willing to suffer. Do you like suffering? Do you like it when your attacked for really stupid decisions you've made? I don't. I immediately ask the Lord , Why am I being attacked. Like right now, satan is trying to stop me from writing this but I rebuke him in the name of Yeshua (Jesus). In faith, you must be sincere! You must give in and actually mean what you say and feel. You must love everyone and pray for the ones that don't understand. As it say's in the book of Titus.
Rebuking Those Who Fail to Do Good
10
For there are many rebellious people, full of meaningless talk and deception, especially those of the circumcision group.
11
They must be silenced, because they are disrupting whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach—and that for the sake of dishonest gain.
12
One of Crete’s own prophets has said it: “Cretans are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons.”
[c] 13
This saying is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith
14
and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the merely human commands of those who reject the truth.
15
To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted.
16
They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good.

Hi Ryan. It's very good to see you posting so prominently here in the forum. I haven't logged in for a while, but not because I've lost faith. I've been working further on healing from child and teen exploitation which resulted in me being featured in porn scenes prior to turning 18. A support group for sexual abuse and assault survivors is helping me accomplish this. The issue you raise here is of great importance, because the majority of porn performers have suffered some type of sexual trauma in childhood or teenage years. In some cases, such as my own, we were groomed, or purposely prepared, for continued abuse and exploitation. When a child or teen is subjected to this, it becomes a pattern of behavior that can be incredibly difficult to break. When performers turn their lives around and chose to open themselves up for public scrutiny, it is vital for facts about sexual trauma to be included as part of the story. By revealing how we are broken down as Children of God and basically programmed to represent Satan, it becomes much more easy for the general public to understand how the porn industry can be so prolific and coercive. We as adults must face the consequences of our decisions and take responsibility for our actions, yet the full responsibility does not rest solely on our shoulders if the truth about exploitation is revealed. Attacks on porn stars who attempt to recover the integrity of their lives only highlight the public's failure to acknowledge sexual exploitation as an epidemic that begins at the heart of every community. That heart is the children. Stay strong, Ghost
I don't remember where the verse is, "if we confess our Sin God who is faithful and just will forgive us our Sin and cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
I was at a party when I was about 21 and I had too much to drink. I ended up being tossed onto someone's bed with him jerking off on my chest. I couldn't move or talk and just stared out the window. I was a Virgin. I didn't report it.
I remember this guys first name. I woke up with my best friend sleeping next to me. As we left he said, "remembering last night?" I imagine he watched Porn and looked at Magazines. He also slept with girls he wasn't Married to.
If Men would take count and contact ALL the Women they either slept with assaulted whatever and apologized to them I think a lot of healing would take place. Guys apparently don't do that.
I'm not sure I should partake of this web-site? I know that after being Save for 13 yrs I still have a lot to learn. I recognize there's a constant changing of attitude(mind) that has to happen. Jesus really has to be our drug. We have to recognize that we need a fix. When people are high do you notice they get this confidence like they can do anything. They don't care if they embarass themselves. That is really what our Christian walk is supposed to be like "High." People will see it and want it too. Be a Christian Drug Dealler. Jesus is better, he's free.
The 1st time I really heard a guy talk poorly about Males conquering Women was right when I Graduated College. We knew people in common. He said, "his friend was ruining his life." Rarely do I hear Men talk like that. It made an impression on me. Another time I simply heard about a guy not wanting to sleep with a girl because, "he was worried she'd get pregnant." Sounded like he actually cared.
Another very good looking guy thought he was o.k. and better than others because he had only been with 10 girls and not hundreds. He said to me, "you want a Virgin?" I don't think he was aware of the concept before. He is really Mr. Personality, Player. I think he likes girls going for him and then he's mean and dumps them. Getting back at that 1 girl who hurt him.
I don't remember which Gospel it is, but its in the beginning chapters and it refers to Joseph being "Honorable with Mary." Not touching her. I have this Male Christian friend of 3 yrs. I didn't feel comfortable holding his hand the other day and he got so mad. He storms out and I can't even explain myself. He wonders why I'm not attracted to him. I almost think Women have to be tougher than Men.
I remember the Bible talking a bit about an immoral Woman's heart being "fetters and snares." I think having a pure heart is hard. How many people of the opposite Sex exist and you have to have eyes, ears and everything for 1. I guess I have huge expectations of Marriage. Marriage is the Rock of Society which is built on the ROCK. Satan goes for the Gold, the areas most important too us and everything else.
Women have to believe they are GOLD in their heart. Valuable. Priceless. The Devil doesn't teach such. So we ignore him and turn to Jesus and listen to what he has to say. Change the way we view our bodies, minds, spirits, sex, Music, LOVE, GOD, JESUS, HOLY SPIRIT, CHURCH, CHRISTIANITY, THE BODY OF CHRIST. The Devil has a view of all these and so does Jesus.
They are all hot debate items.
A mistake I have made is forgetting I'm in a War. Things may seem ok to my perception. So one of my biggest Prayers now is to not be deceived by any misconceptions I have about any area of life. The details.
the Apostle Paul seemed as close to Jesus as you can get. What did he say about himself "Chief Sinner." I'd have to look up where that is in the Bible. He made it known. A person cannot humiliate themselves without Jesus. I can't.
1 Tim 1:15
This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
Jesus came to save sinners. He will not fail. But every sinner must work our their salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you both to will and to do His good pleasure.
