Hi ThankForever777, I'm also curious about your journey of transitioning from an LC based view of salvation to your current one. Was it a combination of scripture reading or did you meet Christians at your new church who were good examples of Christians walking in love and faith?

It was a struggle for me to transition from my LC salvation theology but it was made easier when I met a few godly men and women who really did seem full of love and faith at a level I've never encountered before. They were also transparent about their struggles about embarrassing sins such as porn usage and how they overcame it which made me realize it was possible to overcome addiction whereas I simply thought it was impossible before.
