Before I was saved...i had premarital sex...alot...I drank....alot...i cussed alot. Life was grand.
After I was saved...it was even better - I did the same things...just prayed to be forgiven so I could go out and do it all again.
As an intrigued combat veteran with an interest in Celtism, Buddhism, and animism...I am far more aware of the value of earth, it's peoples, and our role here.
And I feel so much less tolerance for idiot holy rollers that come to my door and try to save themselves...in fact, I pretty much slam the door with no remorse or guilt whatsoever.
I drink less...sex is less frequent but far more meaningful, especially with a good Christian woman...and relationship s are improved because I have no problem telling people what I think of them rather than trying to get them to turn to the Lord...

Even if i wanted to tell you the sins i committed before being saved i couldn't they were washed away. As for after being saved i leave them at the alter where they should be. I didn't enjoy life then. As for now i would be happier if i live it like i should, but that is between me and god. I am sorry since i know this doesn't answer your question.

I'd rather not go into my past, especially since I became a Christian at eight, but now my life is great. I'm happily married, enjoying life and school. Christ has always been a part of my life. I have sinned since I became a Christian (everyone does). My sins are no better or worse than anyone else's.

I have committed every sin, whether in deed or in spirit. I need not list them... 'every last one of them, either acted out, or imagined within my heart' should suffice.
Back then, I was suicidal, depressed, an insomniac, and indulged in a wide variety of self-destructive behaviors.
Now, it has all changed. I enjoy life (even if I don't like the things it throws at me daily) and seek to protect it, I've learned to deal with the problems I do have, and have forsaken or overcome most of my self-destructive behavior (but smoking and soda still plague me).

I was saved when I realized that we are biological creatures just like everything else on the planet.
I try not to "sin" by being a good person and living life to the fullest since our existence on this planet is all we have.
I can respect people who believe in a higher power because having faith generally provides good values and rules to live by.
A lot of terrible things have been done in the name of religion in my opinion though too.
I think more people have been killed in the name of god than anything else in the history of humanity.

My bigest sin before I got saved was blaming alot of my actins on my biological father. He had molested me from the age of 5til I was 14 and when I finallly called the police they laughed at me. So I was sadly a little wild at a young age. I call it my looking for love in all the wrong places. I am not proud of it but I know I am forgiven.

I did not enjoy my old life. I was an Alcoholic by age 15 (literally diagnosed) I was promiscuous, and foul mouthed. I was a liar and a theif, and many other things..I lived like a victim, due to intense torture in chilhood.
I am now a survivor, ONLY by the grace of God...

I was pretty wild with the woman and partied like it was 1999! I've change alot because when i was a child I did the things that a child would do , but now since I'm a man i must put away the childest things and do the things that a man must do. I grew up. we are all imperfect and sinners and i have put my trust in God instead of men.

Dear chyna, I don't believe it is anyone's business knowing our past and what we did before getting saved. It is only to be between you and God. The only EXCEPTION TO THAT is when one is giving his/her testimony in a specific setting, even then one doesn't need to list all the sins committed prior to getting saved. If God forgives us and forgets our sins committed, who are we to remember them?
All the best.
Love in Him.
