My old pastor says if you please God, you do not have to repeat an old struggle once you get past it?

Like I had anorexia and health issues before I became a Christian and I never struggled with under eating or body image after I gave my life to God.

Later I had anxiety issues and an intense fear of poverty because my physical health was so bad I was worried I would not be able to work for the rest of my life, but I got past that with God.

I also struggled with histrionic issues which is a disease where you need constant attention from people but I got over that with self training, mental resets, purpose discovery and getting prayers and support by medical professionals.

Mmm it's true that God can get you pass any struggle. However you have to keep in my mind that your still a human being with flaws and that means you are not perfect. There will be times when you might stumble and fall, like God said every person has fallen short of His glory so God knows what your strength and weaknesses are. I don't think God expects us to be perfect, but He does expect us to have faith and continue to try and stay on the right and narrow path.

That just sounds like a big FU to those medical professionals that really helped you. Nothing against religious people, but don't give the big guy all the praise when there's humans who were the actual help

None of my issues were resolved with doctors since I never got medical treatment for any of these conditions, I got help from Christian biology students I met in school who I emailed with prayer requests after they became doctors in a different country from where I lived.

I see you're already too far to save, alright carry on with your life

[Avicenna]

I think there is something to that. You've overcome a lot.

Thanks for the MHO

He’s wrong on that, I’m afraid. In a just world, yes. But problems are indiscriminant.

[DiegoO]

You can put it that way.

Each to their own.

That does not make any sense.

My pastor struggled with poverty after marriage but God delivered her out of it and she became rich, than she struggled with her son’s low grades but later he became a computer engineer etc… she says once a problem is over, it’s over for good.

Any human other than the prophets who says something on behalf of God as if he knows God's will is a quack and should be shunned. And that includes rhe Pope. We do not get prophets now.
