Sexual sin, A man from Hong Kong, who asked to not be named, writes in to ask: “Pastor John, when do we reach the stage of Esau, as described in Hebrews 12:15–17, where he moved beyond the possibility of repentance? I have been a Christian all my life, but have deeply fallen into sexual sin over a period of many years, including pornography, an adulterous relationship with another man’s wife, and prostitution. I have never stopped fighting these sins, and hate them, and I am glad to say that God recently did a great work to liberate me from the adulterous relationship with the help of my pastor and other fellows Christians, which makes me believe He still cares to save me. However, I still sometimes find myself powerless against these sexual sins and fear to continue drifting into sexual vice, as described in verse 16, and end up in a place beyond repentance and fallen from grace! How do I overcome this helpless drifting into sin and avoid a hardened heart that can no longer repent?”
