And since you brought it up, I am going to tell you something!
It is sin to have sex outside of marriage! It does damage to the other person, and to yourself! Sexual sins are some of the biggest tricks of the Devil! And it is not OK for you go bragging about your sin!
Cussing - if you mean taking the name of the Lord in vain, How dare you? That is the one who saved me from sin, loves me, and gave His life for me - and you are using His name in vain?! That is sin!
Drinking - nothing unbiblical about alcohol - but getting drunk is clearly against NT teaching! You didn't say you get drunk, so I won't preach it anymore!
If you come to my children and want to share the gospel with them and in the process you tell them you cuss and have sex with your girlfriend, I will chase you off my property!
Are you a believer? You said you are and that your soul longs for God - you said you have a contrite heart. I take what you say at face value. If so, you should not be offended by what I say.
You are right that we are fully saved by faith and not because of what we do - with that I agree.
But I am not OK with a Christian being OK with being a "habitual sinner" - I won't stand for it! And neither does God!

I don't suppose those who have relentlessly attacked and mocked me for saying that we should keep God's commandments will agree.
In fact, some of them may even pull the 'don't judge' card.
