    Ever considered not trying to convert people?

    I mean to say that I am no longer a slave of my sex-drive but I and my fleshly desires are under the control of God's Word.

    For the same reason that He created one in everybody else's - So that He could fill it.

    Our desire for lasting happiness is the vacuum. God is the only way to fill it.

    Earthly rewards are the lesser fulfillment. Job gained eternity with God.

    Ditto. I would add "Our desire for lasting peace and happiness is the vacuum. God is the only way to fill it.

    Interesting. God created us so that He could fill us. We're sort of a... bed/house kind of thing for God?..
