cheated and lied, watched porno and have had sexual thoughts. if the bible and religion say we are not supposed to do these things...then why do they exist? aren't we all humans and humans have urges right? So then why be religious if you have done all this? If there was a god why did he create all these things that are supposed to be bad?

The actual number of people who have never done any of those things is higher than many will admit. No one is perfect and we shouldn't pretend to be. We should strive to avoid temption and do what is right/loving. Some of those things you listed are addictive and take away from our ability to live up to our potentional and do what we're suppose to do.

We are all sinners Christians or not. No one is perfect. Yes I had sex before marriage, and I have been through a divorce at a young age.We all have our reasons. People change and learn from there mistakes. No one is going to go through life and not make mistakes. I did a few stupid things in high school. Just because we are christians doesnt mean that we havent done stupid things. We are sinners from the time we are born. When you become a christian that doesnt mean you have to be perfect. You live you life the way you think Jesus would. You think "What would Jesus do in my situation?" We make our own choices God cant make those choices for us.

I've done some of the above. Guilty as charged. But then again, I'm not overly hung up on it, either. I'm religious, but since when did "religious" ever mean "perfect"? These are among the many foibles that people are susceptible to committing, religious or not. I never made a claim to be perfect, and I'm not. I suspect that some people will answer your final question with the phrase "free will".

that is not okay to get an abortion (except very medically and clinically needed) formerly, for the period of or maybe after marriage yet having intercourse formerly, for the period of and after marriage is interior of your guy or woman determination or determination. human beings are continually certain to justify doing something in those era besides so, why ask in case you could lie and wreck out with it or admit and justify it.

I believe the lord put all these bad things on the earth to test us to see if we could fight the temptation, and the ones that can are his true belivers, the ones that cant are not!!!!
P.S. hope i answered your question.

he made us in a way we enjoy sex and have lust feelings. If you believe God created us in the first place you should believe this too. The book is been rewritten in shy early times. I bet it used to be a dirty book. But you and I will never know.

It is possible with God's help to live a righteous life, God would not have these commandments if there was no way to accomplish them, he has provided a way, its just our choice to follow his way or not.

They say god created us in his own image...that means that god is a masturbating, sex before marriage, abortionist, cheater/liar porno-watching, sick-minded freak!
