lmohm will now have to deal with the hatred of liberal wackos who would love to take away what God has done in his life. The fact is that he recognized his sin and his need for a Savior.
lmohm do not worry, keep yourself submitted to the Lord. I was a hard drinking, hard cussing, chain smoking, drug-dealing, rock and roll singer and God completely changed my walk, my talk, and my life. He is doing the same for you.
If people who knew me say 13 years ago would have been told I would be a Pastor one day they (and me) would have laughed at you. Give it time and God will remove those wicked thoughts. Just be sure to never make excuses for them and always identify them as wicked. It is in our thought life that we win or lose the battle of the daily Christian life!
God bless you!
